My former Church had started preaching something like the prosperity gospel when I stopped going. I think at some point, long ago the Church fabricated their version of tithing. In the OT (the only place it's defined) it's a tithe of food, applies to the food producers and traders only, the people of Israel only (Jews), was to be eaten by the tither, the poor and sometimes Levites.
I'd wager most preachers aren't Levites.
Tithing is %60-80 fabricated if the Bible itself weren't %100 fabricated.
A lot of Christians don't care much for welfare but they don't mind giving their money to a Church that isn't giving them a useful service.
