The Lord will not hold guiltless those who are deficient in doing the work that he requires at their hands,—in seeing that the church is kept wholesome and healthy spiritually, and doing all their duty; in allowing no neglect which will bring the threatened curse upon his people. A curse is pronounced upon all who withhold the tithe from God. PH166 20.3
This is not a request of man; it is one of God's ordinances, whereby his work may be sustained and carried on in the world. God help us to repent. PH166 20.4
