Presentation transcript:

Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given orders to the churches of Galatia, so you must do also: On the first day of the week let each one of you lay something aside, storing up as he may prosper, that there be no collections when I come. And when I come, whomever you approve by your letters I will send to bear your gift to Jerusalem. But if it is fitting that I go also, they will go with me. 1 Corinthians 16:1-4

PURPOSE--Giving is outwardly focused for great commission work – ”Concerning the collection for the saints…” INTENTIONAL--Giving is a regular, deliberate act of stewardship – “On the first day of the week let each one of you lay something aside…that there be no collections when I come.” PROPORTIONAL--Giving is in proportion to one’s income – “…storing up as he may prosper…” ACCOUNTABILITY--Giving is best directed through a local church – “on the first day of the week…whomever you approve by your letters I will send to bear your gift to Jerusalem.” UTILITARIAN--Giving recognizes money is a tool, not a destination – Matthew 6:19-21, “do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth…but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven....” – Luke 16:11, “Therefore if you have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?”

How Are You Using Your Shovel? PURPOSE – Is Your Shovel being directed at God’s Mission? INTENTIONAL – Is your shovel being told what to do or is it telling you what to do? PROPORTIONAL – Is your giving in proportion to the size shovel God has gifted you with? ACCOUNTABILITY – Is your shovel being supporting the mission of your local church? UTILITARIAN – Is your shovel a toy for your enjoyment or a tool for God’s Kingdom?

Therefore I thought it necessary to exhort the brethren to go to you ahead of time, and prepare your generous gift beforehand, which you had previously promised, that it may be ready as a matter of generosity and not as grudging obligation. But this I say: He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver.
