What Christian church denomination asks for a tithe for membership or salvation?

I am curious to know what denominations or christian churches require a tithe for salvation or for membership, or maybe for both.|||Well, there's the Universal Church of the Kingdom of God. They say donations are voluntary, but in the past they have taken part in all kinds of strange stuff, like charging money for "miracles"...





Apart from that no christian church asks for money in exchange for salvation.





If you want an example of a non-christian religion, you always have scientology. In that religion, the only way to learn more and come closer in their path to enlightement is to pay for their courses, which become increasingly costly as you get higher in "knowledge".|||No Christian church requires a tithe for salvation. Salvation is through grace alone by faith alone in Christ alone, not of works that anyone should boast.





Same goes for membership. No true Christian church will demand a tithe for membership. That's just greed.





There are many who claim to be Christian but are not, and they may.|||They all expect money, maintaining those buildings and supporting the clergy in the lifestyle to which they wish to become accustomed takes a lot of income. Most of them no longer refer to it as a "tithe" though, the current term is "donation".|||I dont know where it is required, but saints should know that the church had to pay it's bills. It has to have lights, heat/air, water, etc...which costs money.|||not mine (community church) which preaches the true gospel, not a perverted one (Galations 1:1-8)|||None.|||I think they all do.
