Give
At Alive City, we are a generous church and believe in the practice of giving offering and tithes to support the Church, as God commands. We recognise that giving at least 10% of our income (tithing) is the Biblical standard for giving as well as giving offering to support the work of the gospel, help those who are in need and support the operating costs of church.
The Gift of Giving
Tithes
Tithes are referred to 'first fruits' of our labour/income and the Bible says it belongs to God (Proverbs 3:9-10). We find this principle all throughout God's Word right from Genesis and in the New Testament
Offering
An offering is giving over and above the tithe. The Bible says that “remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”
Acts 20:35
