You are very welcome. I learn a lot of information during research for my posts, so it goes both ways -thank you for your question. An instuctor at the Bible Institute that I attend says that there is a few dangers involved with the study of Scripture. One of them is: "Knowledge puffeth up" (1Cor 8:1) -But Love builds up (edifies), so we must always remember to keep our perspective, especially in the presence of non-believers. God's Blessings to you and yours, keliy |

Thank you sister Val, I attend a non-denom Bible-teaching church of approx 100 attendees. We have no membership, and no collections are passed. Only Bibles are passed out at the beginning of each service for those who do not have one in their lap (o; Our small church is very blessed to have an associate pastor who loves to teach and has a great gift to do so. He has started a Bible institute, which is now in its third year and we have been blessed with opportunities to take courses in Discipleship, Hermeneutics, New Testament Greek, and Hebrew is on the slate, as the Lord leads. This is all in addition to an hour-plus of verse by verse exposition twice per week by a pastor who is also a wonderfully gifted exegete. I feel quite blessed to have come this far in the years that I have studied, after so many of my younger years that were simply wasted. Thank you for your kindness, may our Lord bless you in the coming new year as you walk in His light. keliy |

keliy, Good day to you sir. I have a question regarding the first part of your post I too belong to a somewhat small non denominational congregation (When compared to other churches in my area) I'm just curious as to where your fellowship stands in regards to tithing and giving. I've been part of this fellowship for the better part of 16 years, the vast majority of as a disciple of Jesus Christ. When I share with people I'm not hesitant to tell folks that I'm part of an Acts chapter 2 church, I've had occasion to be living this for allot of years now. This has been and still is an area that this fellowship has truly put into practice I have been blessed of God to have been on the receiving end of this for allot of years now. I'm just curious as to how you folks are getting it done on your end. As desciples of Jesus Christ we are family and as such we should and must have the heart to do what God commands us to do to carry out his call to his people in Matt 28:18-20. Part of getting that done is us helping to take care of each other. In Him, lionheart |

Hello Lionheart, (I love that screen name!) I am responding to your curiosity as to where the fellowship I attend stands in regards to tithing and giving. Well, it is quite simple, in lieu of a basket being passed, there is an "Agape Box" near the entrance to the Sanctuary. It has a slot to place tithes and offerings into it, as well as a pad of paper designated for prayer requests. The box is never spoken of from the pulpit, but when I first began attending,the Pastor had answered my query to do as I am led by the Lord. Joyful blessings to you, keliy |

keliy, Thanx brother. My query was more a curiousity than anything else. If I had given it a bit more thought that would have come to mind more than likely. In Him, lionheart |
