Considering a business venture... Tithe on gross rev or net?

[Jbs2763]

I'm conisering getting back into trucking, and buying a truck to do so

so shold i pay tithe on my gross rev to the business? or what i pay my self?

here are soem ballpark numbers

total rev $4000

truck payment $500

fuel $ 1500

insurache $300

maint fund 250

taxes 750

so if my math is right that would leave me net 750 (this is per week)

so waht do i tithe on?

You've got to take this to the Lord and decide for yourself.

If it adds any perspective, though, I tithe only on what I pay myself. If/when I ultimately sell my law practice, I'll tithe the proceeds at that time.

I used to own a business. I did the same as JAG.

The commandment is 10% of your increase. So, identify what your increase is and that's your answer. It can be difficult to determine your personal increase when you work for yourself. That's where you make a decision and the pray about it.

Good luck.

Best answer ever. And the official answer as well. I will be post again when this hits page 5:)

As one who has owned/owns businesses, I've always paid tithing on my personal increases. My company was its own entity, with revenues and expenses. My company was never commanded to pay tithes. I was commanded to pay tithes.

I agree with JAG and Skalenfehl

Your business is really a separate entity. Pay tithe based on what you keep for yourself, unless you are spiritually prompted otherwise.
