tithing also goes to the Pastor and he decides where it goes. IN some case the tithe is used by the Pastor exclusively for his lifestyle.. My son was married to a Pastor's daughter. Her family thought that they were the chosen ones so they could get anything they wanted..............they would say that God wanted them to be happy so they bought the best of everything..............all high end. ALl tithes paid to the church were theirs to spend for their own comfort. The congregation had to pay more to support the church. They ended up selling the church and pocketed the money!!!!! They were careful to tithe to the next Pastor that took over the congregation!!!! That's a true story!
