I pass no judgment on those that pay on net instead of gross. That's between them and the Lord. What I pay and how I pay it is between me and the Lord, and is none of your business. I don't look to the Brethren to answer every open issue for me, but let my conscience be my guide. That being said, I decided for myself many years ago that I would prefer the Lord to bless me with gross blessings instead of net blessings.
