Giving |
Luke 6
38Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed
down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with
the measure you use, it will be measured to you."
Proverbs 21

without sparing.

drive out demons. Freely you have received, freely give.

unduly, but comes to poverty.
Acts 20
35In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard
work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said:
'It is more blessed to give than to
receive.' "
Malachi 3
8 "Will a man rob God? Yet you rob me. "But you ask, 'How do we
rob you?' "In tithes and offerings. 9 You are under a curse-the whole
nation of you-because you are robbing me. 10 Bring the whole tithe
into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this," says
the LORD Almighty, "and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven
and pour out so much blessing that you will not have room enough for it. 11
I will prevent pests from devouring your crops, and the vines in your fields
will not cast their fruit," says the LORD Almighty.
Matthew 10
42And if anyone gives even a cup of cold water to one of these
little ones because he is my disciple, I tell you the truth, he will certainly
not lose his reward."
2 Corinthians 9
7Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give,
not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.

9 Honor the LORD with your wealth, with the firstfruits of all
your crops; 10 then your barns will be filled to overflowing, and
your vats will brim over with new wine.

25 A generous man will prosper; he who refreshes others will
himself be refreshed.
