CHRISTIAN GIVING

1. Christian Giving is not a option it’s a command Numbers 15 : God commanded the Israelites to bring their offerings to God. God specified on how, what and when to give offerings.

There was punishment for those who disobeyed. Malachi 3:10 “Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse…” Jesus commanded in Matt. 10:8 “Freely you have received freely give”. Giving is a discipline as important as Praying, Reading the Bible

2. Giving is opening God’s door of Blessings. Malachi 3:10 “see if I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you a blessing until it overflows.” Luke 6:38 “Give, and it will be given to you. They will pour on your lap a good measure – pressed down, shaken together, and running over. For by your standard of measure it will be measured to you in return.

All who gave to the Lord were blessed : - Moses gave the stick and God blessed it. - 5 loaves of bread and 2 fish were blessed when it was given in the hands of God. - the 2 coins of the widow were blessed when she gave it. "He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose.” - Jim Elliot

MONEY will buy - a bed but not SLEEP books but not BRAINS food but not APPETITE finery but not BEAUTY

church but not HEAVEN luxuries but not CULTURE crucifix but not a SAVIOUR medicine but not HEALTH house but not a HOME

3. Give according to God’s terms not ours Proverbs 3:9 “HONOUR the Lord with your wealth…” Mathew 6:3 “Do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing.” 2 Corith. 9:7 ‘God loves a cheerful giver”
