Liz Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 He gave a little over 20% of his income to charitable donations. That would be tithe and offering. On top of that he is donating after-tax proceeds to the Fisher House Foundation. :) Quote For what will a man be profited, if he gains the whole world, and forfeits his soul?

Woody Posted April 13, 2012 Author Posted April 13, 2012 Thanks Liz. If I am in error I apologize. But I was listening to Fox News and they disclosed that he paid 20% to his Uncle Sam but only 5% to his God. Which one is correct - I do not know. Quote May we be one so that the world may be won.

Liz Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 Weeelll, let me see, I read that his income was $790,000 from the salary of the position of President and from book sales and I'm not sure what all. Then he paid $172,000 in charitable donations, and that he paid $160,000 in taxes. Now I'm horrible at math and will be the first to admit it, but I think those numbers are around 20%? Give or take? I got these numbers off of Foxnews.com but please don't tell anyone I read there, o.k.? Quote For what will a man be profited, if he gains the whole world, and forfeits his soul?

Moderators Bravus Posted April 13, 2012 Moderators Posted April 13, 2012 So the truth is utterly irrelevant to you guys. Slur on, and if the facts are inconvenient ignore them? Quote Truth is important
Members phkrause Posted April 13, 2012 Members Posted April 13, 2012 Wow and here I've been paying tithe most of my life!!! What's wrong with this picture????? So starting this Sabbath I will stop altogether and when asked by the church why? I'll tell them that that is what I was told. So thanks! Oh I wonder what God thinks of that statement "Liberals don't have to pay tithe?" Just unreal!!!!! Quote phkrause When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man rules, the people groan. Proverbs 29;2
Guest Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 I said I don't think they do, I could be wrong. But if you've been paying it all this time, I wouldn't stop. Quote
Guest Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 Oh I wonder what God thinks of that statement "Liberals don't have to pay tithe?" Just unreal!!!!! First of all I didn't make the statement you just attributed to me in quotes. In fact, what I made wasn't even a statement. And second, the last time I checked, this was the political forum. If you want to argue theology, there is a forum for that. It's called Theological Townhall. Quote
