-Introduction-
The life of giving is not something that one has to bear according to one's faith. For the saints, the life of giving is a very important teaching and blessing.
The first is that through the life of giving, the state of faith of a person is revealed. (Galatians 6:9 , Matthew 6:21)
Second, it is because we can develop God's work through the life of giving. The result is glory to God. Let us realize that God's work prospers when we put money to good use.
Third, the life of giving is important because it serves as a channel for believers to receive God's blessings. God is the one who repays the saints who are more faithful in their giving life with more things.
% The donation life is a sensitive issue, so it should be communicated wisely.
The material blessings of the saints who reap what they sow.
Declare confidently and clearly.
We must realize that the faith in giving is the most important faith.
We must preach in prayer, confident that the blessings of faith in donations will come to individuals and churches.
Luther said that the last part of repentance is his pocket.
!!! important facts
salvation = faith
superior = service
material = donation
Introduction
Giving life guidance is a compulsory subject for pastors. Jesus also talked a lot about material offerings.
Matthew 6:24 = No one can serve two masters. Matthew 19:22-24 = Rich young man. Luke 21:1-4 = Durepdon the widow
First, the church members lack faith in giving.
Second, because we are too attached to matter.
Third, because there is nothing in this world as precious as material.
For these reasons, it is difficult to preach an offering.
Nevertheless, the pastor must lead the life of the offering of the saints. If you don't, it's negligence.
Giving your best life is an accurate expression of the donor's faith and heart.
There are few people who can donate money without faith or heart.
Matthew 6:21=Where the treasure is, so will the heart; Galatians 6:7=You reap what you sow. Matthew 6:19-20
Receive the blessings of heaven and give rewards according to what you sow. With these two convictions, let the saints know that the donor is the way for himself.
* Definition of Donation
1. Grace
1) God's grace refers to offerings - 2 Corinthians 8:1
-2 Corinthians 8:4
- 2 Corinthians 8:6
-2 Corinthians 8:7
It refers to a fundraising campaign to help the #Jerusalem saints, but it is an offering of grace. The offering in 2 Corinthians 8 is defined as grace.
2) Participation in the offering reveals the grace received - 2 Corinthians 8:2-3
At that time, there was a severe famine throughout Judea (Acts 11:27-30) during the reign of the Roman emperor Claudius in AD41-54 (Acts 11:27-30). Moreover, he was suffering from the double suffering of religious persecution by the Jews. Dedicated to helping. Paul appealed for donations. If you are faithful in your giving life, you have been given abundant grace. But if you don't, you have received the grace that God has given you in vain. 2 Corinthians 6:1 This is the most vivid evidence of how we respond to God's grace.
3) Why offering is grace
It's about the fact that Han-nim is the one who gave me the heart and the conditions to donate. 1 Corinthians 16: 1-3 is in the same vein. Haplotes is the Greek word for an annual report - This is an expression that indicates what the heart of the donor should be. You will realize that giving is a privilege, not an obligation.
2. The Ministry
1) Offering is a free service job - 2 Corinthians 9:12
It means public service. But service is free work. It is a service without name and without light. Remind them that giving is a free work.
2) Using this job as evidence.
3) To glorify God by using this ministry as evidence (verse 13)
3. Doing God's Will
4. Giving yourself first
5. What God Accepts
