God's Tax

from A Word in Season: Messages by R.J. Rushdoony on the Faith for All of Life · host R.J. Rushdoony

The tithe is God’s tax, rooted in a simple truth: the earth belongs to the Lord. God, not the state, is the true owner, and the tithe is His rightful claim meant to be joined with justice, mercy, and faithful obedience. It does not belong automatically to the church, but to God Himself, and must be given in support of truly godly work. When men or governments seize what belongs to God, the result is tyranny and judgment; when God is honored, He promises blessing. The tithe stands as a public declaration that property is under God’s law, not man’s and that freedom itself depends on acknowledging His rightful ownership.
