Bible Note: Full Life Study Bible has been so helpful in studying God's Word. we must remember that we must be stewards over our money, everything we have belongs to the Lord, so that what we do possess is not our own but what God has entrusted to us; we have no rightful ownership of our possessions. 1) we must decide within our hearts to serve God and not money,any greed is a form of idolatry.(Matt 6:19-24;2 Cor8: 1-5).2) our giving must be to advance the kingdom of God, especially the work of the local church you attend and of the spread of the gospel throughout the world.(Prov 19:17; 1Cor 9:4-14; Phil 4:15-18) 3) our giving should always be in proportion to our income.in the Old Testament the tithe amounted to one-tenth giving less than that was disobedience to the law of God and was in effect robbing God (Mal 3:8-10). Similarly, the New Testament requires that our giving be in proportion to what God has given us (1 Cor 16:2; 2 Cor 8:3,12,; 2 Cor 8:2) 4) our giving should be voluntary and generous; this practice is taught in both testaments. (Exodus 25:1-2; 2 Chr 24:8-11) 2 COR 8:1-5; 11-12) 5) our giving should be cheerful( 2 Cor 9:7 ) 6) God has promised to reward us according to how we have given to Him(Deut 15:4; Mal 3:10-12; Matt 19:21; 1 Tim 6:18-19; 2Cor 9:6) here is alot of scriptures for you I pray you will read and study them. if not if you can attend a Bible class in a church that teaches on tithing. God will bless you beyond your wildest dreams. may God richly bless you. |
