Why does People think that churches begs for money? My Church that I attend when they Pray before the offering says Bless those that are able to give and Bless those that are not able to give. It's demanded in the Bible that you give 10 percent of your earnings to God and the Church to help the church out with finances and other stuff. It's shows you care about Gods word and God's people and to matian your church. If a Church won't accept you because you don't have money then they aren't teaching the right doctrine of Faith and teachings of Jesus Christ.

I very much agree on it. The church actually do not beg for money. What they do is they solicit money for church projects or general church expenditures. Some people have this way of thinking reagardless if it is begging, soliciting, or any other forms of it, it is already begging...But as you have mentioned, it is stated in the bible to give 10%..But then again, it should be given by you wholeheartedly..if you only have enough money to spare, it is ok to give a little or nothing if you have nothing to give. It is not a requirement or pre-requisite from a blessing from God.
