SCRIPTURE: “Verily, thus saith the Lord, I require all their surplus property to be put into the hands of the bishop of my church in Zion, for the building of mine house, and for the laying of the foundation of Zion and for the priesthood, and for the debts of the Presidency of my Church. And this shall be the beginning of the tithing of my people. And after that, those who have thus been tithed shall pay one-tenth of all their interest annually; and this shall be a standing law unto them forever, for my holy priesthood, saith the Lord.” -Doctrine and Covenants 119:1-4. [source]
COMMENTARY: Don’t let a bishop convince you to pay your tithing each week or month. The Lord clearly requires it to be paid once per year. But what do I know? I’m just another apostate.
