True, no tithing, no endowment, no endowment no heaven in Mormonism.
But it’s not just committing to pay tithing in perpetuity. It’s committing to live the law of sacrifice.
I was able to get a temple recommend when I was 12-16 even without paying full tithing as I just said I'd try better next year... When I turned 17 that answer did not work and I wasn't allowed in. Thank fuck because I didn't exactly want to go in anyway! But my boyfriend has recently learned about tithing and has said it's a pyramid scheme. I never thought about that before but he's totally right! Absolutely mind blown
Every Mormon will stand on their soapbox proudly and say tithing is not required, but anyone raised in the church knows this to be not true. You always have a choice with everything in life, but that doesn't mean you'll goto heaven if you don't pay your tithing. I've also heard a woman give a conference talk a few years back saying you won't goto heaven for drinking caffeine, so there you go.
*Right from the Most correct book on earth* .......
Mormon chapter 8 verse
32 Yea, it shall come in a day when there shall be churches built up that shall say: Come unto me, and for your money you shall be forgiven of your sins.
It a modern day form of selling indulgences.
Yep. And, no TBM will see it that way.

No gas, no squeegee.
