    Yes, you must be a full Tithe payer to qualify for a Temple Recommend.

    Joseph Smith said: a religion that does not require the sacrifice of all things is False.

    Tithing is a sacrifice for the weakest of saints as it is only 10% of your income.

    True saints live under the 'united order' or 'Concecration' this is the sacrifice of all we have, including time & Energies.

    Malachi 3:8-10

    8. Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings.
    9. Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this whole nation.
    10. Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.

    The word Tithe or the Hebrew: mah-as-ayr', mah-as-ar', mah-as-raw'
    Means a Tenth Part....

    Mormons pay 'a Tenth + Other Offerings.'

    Matt 19:21
    Jesus said to the rich man 'Sell All thou hast & give to the poor..& follow Me.'

    • Someone who has no "gain" pays no tithing, yet can still get a recommend

    • Matt 19:21 in context is talking about something else besides tithing

      Salvation is - it's a gift:

      "...the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord."
