1 | Can we define giving in terms of taking? | Acts 20:35 | The Berean | 46822 | ||
Yes I have given plenty...money, time, compassion etc. In some instances I did not recieve anything back immediately. However the point of our example as christians is humbleness. We ought to not expect anything back. God of course will reward you, either here on earth or in heaven. Luke 6:35 puts it plainly for us all. The point of us giving is not a condition to recieve anything. God also states in Job 41:11 Who has given to Me that I should repay him? Anything that I recieve is by God's Grace and Mercy, because I surely don't deserve it. I hope this helps. Yours in Christ. | ||||||
2 | Can we define giving in terms of taking? | Acts 20:35 | Giam | 46856 | ||
Berean! Whata great name! from acts 17:11-12. Your answer is perfect especially in ref to luke 6:35. But the reason that 6:35 says we are not to expect anything in return is because: when u give to me, who do you first have to take from? Yourself! see? And when I give to you, I hvae to first take it from myslf, and for you to take it, you have to first take it and then give to yourself! So there can be no giving without receiving, just as there can be no taking without giving! See? For God to give to u is for Him to first take from Himself, and for u to recieve from God, you have to take it from him and give it to yourself! So guess waht? At the very time it is MORE blessed for u to give to me, what is it MORE blessed for ME to do? And vice versa? I know u, a THE Berean, can figure that out! Eagerly anticipating your feed back! Thanks for writing me! Loving u as a giver, loving me as a receiver, little giam |
