Tithing - Purchasing a Warehouse for Business
Question
I bought a new warehouse for the business, and it's clear that without the business I wouldn't have bought it, especially since I took a mortgage on it. Can it be considered an expense for the purpose of tithing, or ultimately, since I benefit from having another asset, is it not an expense?
Answer
Hello
Currently, it is considered an expense for the business.
If you sell the warehouse in the future and realize the profit for yourself, you will then need to give a tithe.
