GIVE

Our giving is a reminder of the blessings God gives us and gave to us through Jesus Christ." We find in John 3:16 three thoughts that should be the foundation of all our giving. God's motivation for giving was love; he gave himself in the person of Jesus; and God gave in response to our need.

​

Scripture commands us to give, therefore not giving would be an act of disobedience.

• Romans 12:13 – “Contribute to the needs of the saints and seek to show hospitality.”

• Hebrews 13:16  – “Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God.”

• 1 John 3:17-18 – “But if anyone has the world’s goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God’s love abide in him?  Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth.”
