Tier 1: published on news.ag.org, the Assemblies of God's own official news service. States plainly, in the denomination's own voice, that Christians should tithe as an act of obedience and that "while a tithe is understood as 10 percent, I see this as a minimum amount," corroborating the numeric figure the Bylaws' own text leaves as the word "tithe" alone.
