Understanding Tithing

Random little questions before or after taxes? Can I tithe wherever I want? Is it required in a New Testament Christian? Why does it work? After the birth of our baby he had some health difficulties and we thought we couldn’t afford to tithe, we didn’t know why we couldn’t afford not to. We had heard we can’t afford not to but never had it explained so plainly. The rate important household items broke was astounding. We went through 3 kcup coffee pots in six months! As young Christian’s repented and got right. We rejoiced the Lord gave us mercy not having greater devour such as our vehicles. After getting right we got this CD and it taught us in a way so plainly now we get it. The tithes belong to the Lord.
