"I heard about corporate tithing September 4, 1987. That brought this church under an open heaven forever. This is a tithing church, and I can tell you where we began from, sir. Where we began from is nothing compared to where the grace of obedience has brought us - through the mystery of corporate tithing taught me by Jesus. I was in Sheraton Hotel. I came here to minister for Fourquare Church convention or something...God visited me that morning and said the tithe that Abraham paid was not personal tithe. It was the tithe of his company. 318 people that went to war, and he paid the tithe of all."
