Tithing and CCOG Spending

What  does the Continuing Church of God spend tithes and offerings on?

We use them to proclaim the good news of the kingdom of God (Matthew 24:14), teach all that Jesus commanded (Matthew 28:19-20), feed the flock, support the poor, put forth the Ezekiel chapters 3,5, &6 warning?, work towards the fulness of the Gentiles coming in (Romans 11:25), work on restoring all things (cf. Matthew 17:11), watch and report on world events aligning with biblical prophecies (cf. Mark 13:1-37), prepare for the short work of Romans 9:28, lead the final phase of the work with brotherly love, and pay for various forms of media (see Continuing Church of God Multimedia page) as Philadelphia continues (Hebrews 13:1).

The Continuing Church of God is pleased to announce this sermon from its ContinuingCOG channel:

Tithing and CCOG Spending

Should the most faithful Christian church be supported through tithes and offerings? Is that biblical? What did the old WCG ‘Tithing’ booklet teach? Are funds used to fulfill Jesus’ commissions in Matthew 24:14 and Matthew 28:19-20? Do funds received by the church fund what the Bible says should be done? What did Jesus day to those sheep who gave to support the poor? If there will always be poor, does it make scriptural sense to support the poor in places like Africa? What about the fulness of the Gentiles coming in and the Ezekiel warning? Does it make sense to spend funds on radio, the internet, and other types of multimedia? What about the production and publishing of literature? Does it make sense to have ‘Gospel of the Kingdom of God’ booklets translated into over 1000 languages/dialects? How did the Continuing Church of God spend its ordinary USA donations in 2023? Should people tithe on agricultural produce only or all of their increase? Are tithes your money or God’s? Are there multiple tithes? Should you tithe on your gross or net income? Does tithing take faith in God? To whom should you tithe? How can you determine that the CCOG is the most faithful Philadelphian remnant that you should send tithes and offerings to? Are tithes and offerings income tax deductible in various nations? Do you wish to be a sheep or goat according to Jesus’ words in Matthew 25? Dr. Thiel addresses those issues and more in this sermon.
