In the New Testament church, tithing has roots in the Old Testament practice of giving a tenth of one's income to support the religious community. In the New Testament, Jesus affirmed the importance of giving generously and sacrificially, but there is no specific command to tithe. Early Christians were encouraged to give freely and cheerfully to support the church and help those in need. Over time, the practice of tithing became more formalized in Christian communities as a way to support the church and its ministries.
