Excerpt from the LDS ‘For the Strength of Youth’ (2011): 1
“A tithe is one-tenth of your income. In order to enter the temple, you must be a full-tithe payer.”
Question 10 from the LDS Temple recommend interview questions: 2
“10 Are you a full-tithe payer?”
Excerpt from the LDS endowment ceremony performed in the temple: 3
PETER: We do not wonder that you cannot comprehend such doctrine. Have you any tokens or signs?
LUCIFER: [Interjecting.] Do you have any money?
PETER: We have sufficient for our needs.
LUCIFER: You can buy anything in this world for money.
PETER: [To Adam.] Do you sell your tokens or signs for money? You have them, I presume.
ADAM: I have them, but I do not sell them for money. I hold them sacred. I am looking for the further light and knowledge Father promised to send me.
PETER: That is right. We commend you for your integrity. Good day. We shall probably visit you again.
