Must have read that post wrong or something. I suggested what to Pilgrim?

Sorry if I've confused you. Here's the exchange I'm speaking about:

We give him the top piece from gross income before we pay any bills. There is always enough. Why does it have to be so hard?
I'm really curious how you would feel if your situation was like far too many in the world outside of the affluent Western societies who barely have enough to eat, never mind concerning themselves with which DVD to rent? There is no question that the Lord provides for all the necessities of life for His own, although at times even those are sometimes meagre, yet they are enough to sustain life. So, let's take a hypothetical example, although it is probably all too real for some. You are working two jobs and bring home $250/week. Your monthly obligations, which include no "luxuries", total $999. So, if you distribute your alleged obligation of a 10% tithe, i.e. $100, to your local church and other agencies, who would you suggest you do not pay what is owed? Do you slight your rent/mortgage payment? eat less? <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/scratch1.gif" alt="" /> Would you suggest that a family of 5 live in a 2-room apartment which is less costly so that this 10% tithe can be met?

That post is here. You responded here as follows:

Yes, actually I would.

Now, unless I've completely misread you, you were saying that you think a family of five should move into a two-room apartment in order to pay the tithe. That's what I was refering to.

I tell you, this man went down to his house justified.
