Too often people think of tithing as losing money.

They forget what they're gaining, and what the Church gains as a result of their tithes (missionaries, temples, meetinghouses, etc...).

Mos. 15:12

And so it was made known among the dead...that redemption had been wrought through the sacrifice of the Son of God upon the cross.
