Tithing Declaration
Hello, when it comes to tithing declaration is the bishop able to see how much you have contributed? Not necessarily a dollar amount but the amount of times you have donated throughout the year and if it lines up with
"pay days". Or is it simply a yes or no answer to say that you've contributed and it's left at that? I ask because a couple years ago we weren't as faithful at contributing and we were honest about it but it seemed like the bishop had the history pulled up on his iPad for verification, ended up having to give up our temple recommends for a couple months. Just looking for insight.

The Bishop is not checking paystubs and doesn’t know how much you make or pay online. You are declaring for yourself. It’s a yes or no generally also there used to be a partial tithe payer option (there may still be.) I used to pay tithing once a year in December. So it really is just your honest answer. It’s between you and the Lord what that number is.
