Well many people live in very cold winter places so must in live indoors. And then there is heat, electric, water, sewer and trash. Home repairs. Many of us have to drive to work so need to keep a car running and buy gas, tires, oil, etc. Clothes, which those rugrats out grown every time you turn around. Cleaning supplies, personal hygiene supplies, medical bills, and food, food is good. Yes bills. Things that you have promised and are obligated to pay and pay in a timely manner. If you don't you are a very poor representative for the Body of Christ.
seek first the kingdom of god and all "these things' shall be added unto you..
do you believe these words Jesus spoke ?

most will say "yes..BUT". the but is an announcement that they like the words but do not believe them .

in reality is ,if you have walls and roof ,electricity and hot water , clean cold running water , clothes and food and some where in your house there are coins ,, you are in the top mere 8% of the population of the world . and your trust in your own ability to maintain those things is NOT faith in god but faith in self .

now go back and read what "these things ? are ..read the verses leading up to the statement "Seek first the kingdom of god and all "these things' shall be added unto you.

You need to do what God puts on your heart just as I do. The one who has no abundance or increase needs to do what God puts on his heart.
You should not be assuming or questioning another man faith. You are not their master.

Now I will ask you, why was it that the Apostles Peter and Paul were not required to pay tithes? What did Jesus say that the Pharisees tithed, was it money?

are you directing this to the wrong person ? i already disagree with the law of the tithe being promoted as a means to fund m,an made projects and systems .
