1 | How many ways can money be collected? | 1 Cor 16:1 | tgarretts | 105465 | ||
As far as I can tell there aren't any guide lines on how a church is to collect money. There are guide lines on how the church (the body of beleivers) is to give. The technique is not important. The condition of the heart of the giver is. The Old Testament we are taught to give 10 percent of your income but in the New Testament there is not a percentage given. However, the New Testament teaches that It all belongs to God and that We need to be a cheerful giver (2 Cor. 9:7). I beleive that we need to give that according to what God lays on our heart to give. When you look at the parable of the talents, you find the good steward is the one who is blessed. You have to be led by the Spirit in order to be a good steward for apart from Christ we can do nothing (Gal. 2:20). | ||||||
2 | do you belive in being baptised again? | Acts | tgarretts | 99935 | ||
Baptism is something that you do out of obediance to Christ. In fact, it is the first step of obediance and can only be done after you have accepted Christ as Lord and Savior. It is only needed once when it is done in the proper order. So if you were baptized and then later came to know Christ, then you need to be re-baptized again for the first time in the right order. Baptism is a picture of the death, burial and resurection of Christ and is our way of making a public profession of faith, which can only happen after our accepting of Christ as Lord and Saviour. All through out the book of Acts you will see that everybody believed and then were baptized. Acts 8:34-38 is a great Example: the eunuch ask in verse 36 "what hinders me from being baptized?", and Then Philip said in vere 37, "If you believe with all your heart, you may." | ||||||
