Fred R. Coulter—August 30, 2025

Transcript

In this compelling message, Mr. Fred Coulter delves into a question that has been at the center of much debate: "Who owns the tithe?" Using a diligent, verse-by-verse approach to study the Scriptures, he guides viewers through biblical passages to reveal the foundational truth that God owns the tithe. This video is a must-watch for anyone seeking to understand the biblical basis for tithing and where tithes and offerings should go.

Mr. Coulter begins by exploring the early accounts of Abraham and Jacob, establishing the ancient precedent for giving a tenth to God. He highlights key concepts such as the "House of God" and demonstrates that even before the law was given at Sinai, God’s people understood and obeyed His commandments, statutes, and laws. He then meticulously breaks down passages from Numbers, Malachi, and the New Testament, including the writings of the Apostle Paul, to clarify that the principle of tithing and offering has remained constant. He explains that while the physical temple and Levitical priesthood were temporary, God's ownership of the tithe is eternal, and the "House of God" today is the Church.

Fred Coulter also addresses common misunderstandings and even shares cautionary tales about the mismanagement of funds within religious organizations, emphasizing the responsibility of church leadership to handle these resources with integrity. The focus, he explains, must always be on producing spiritual fruit and preaching the gospel, not on worldly extravagance. By sharing his own experiences and convictions, Mr. Coulter provides a powerful argument for the importance of giving to God’s Church today, ensuring that the message of truth and salvation can be carried out to the world. He hopes this video will provide clarity and peace of mind to all who seek to live according to God's will, helping them prove all things and hold fast to that which is good.
