Should tithes be withheld Incase of corrupt management?
According to available White Estate materials, tithes should not be withheld even in cases of dissatisfaction or concerns about corrupt management. Ellen White counseled that withholding tithe is considered "robbery toward Him [God]," and that the tithe is "the Lord’s." Concerns about mismanagement should be addressed through proper channels, but faithfulness in returning tithe to God is still required. The responsibility for the proper use of tithe rests with those who manage it, and God will hold them accountable for any misuse. (See 9T 249.2; GW 222.2, 227.2; 8T 59.3) References: - White, E. G.
