Tithing is to give to God one tenth of all you earn. It is not to pay the wages of any clergyman. It must be used to build up the kingdom of God. If you choose to give your tithe to a particular church then make sure just how that tithe will be used. If the clergy of the church have to work for their upkeep, then it might be safe to pay into that church. Abraham paid tythes to King Melchizedeck, but the king never took any of the money for himself but used it to help the poor and the needy.

Is it true people in England had to pay taxes to support the church of England?

Yes, historically, people in England were required to pay taxes to support the Church of England. This was part of the established church system, where the church was funded through a tax called tithes, which was typically one-tenth of a person's income. This practice was formalized after the English Reformation in the 16th century when the Church of England broke away from the Roman Catholic Church. While the obligation to pay tithes has diminished over time, the relationship between church and state has remained significant in England.
