[S I M T A N]

I'm afraid what you post is either a fallacious assumption or a deliberate misrepresentation of the truth. You're making a sweeping generalization about Christians worshipping money and enriching themselves at the expense of their tithe-paying brethren. Nothing could be further from the truth. Christians pay tithes in compliance with the teaching of the Scripture.

"And concerning the TITHE of the herd, or of the flock, even of whatsoever passeth under the rod, the TENTH shall be holy unto the Lord." Leviticus 27:32. In my church - Church of S'pore -  no offering bags are passed around the congregation during a service. Tithing is done on a voluntary basis using its electronic payment system. There's also an offering box at the front entrance where tithes and other monetary offerings can be dropped into it in an envelope.

The Bible in Malachi 3:10 says to bring the tithes into the storehouse. Unfortunately, some just make excuses because they don't believe in that tithe-paying business or don't want to render the tithe to God. They're missing out in the blessing of the tithe because this is the only scripture where God ever mentioned we could prove Him on it.

"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 only areas in which God ever said to prove Him are tithes, offerings and giving. It's, to all intents and purposes, inviting believers to open their wallets and give their tithes and He will bless them financially and materially. There are pitfalls, though, of giving of their finances, but it's not about their money going into someone's pocket.
