Yes, but the deal is with God, not the Church.
Really? When did God set down his portfolio management style? It seems that the Mormon elite are investing said funds. Tithing is a scam. Watch out Mormons!
OH NOOOOO! The 'elite' are investing the Church's funds so that it has access to communication systems and spare money if hard times come and they even have the gall to try to make some interest on it instead of hiding it in a mattress. Those demons!!!!

Could you post your source for this? Because I don't recall hearing this before.
Gotta agree. Blessings were promised to tithe payers, but I don't recall a threat being issued to non-tithe payers.
I think SWSU referring to the fact that temple recommends are denied to non-tithe payers. It's a sort of denial of blessings when you can't see your children getting married because you haven't paid tithing.
