  • I will serve and love God, not money
  • Debt free living is God's plan for his people and how I act my wage
  • I can't take it with me, but I can send it on ahead.

Big Idea: I will give God my first and best so He can bless the rest

Prov.22:7

The rich rule over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender.

Psalm 24:1

The earth is the Lord's and everything in it

It takes faith to give to God first

Question: Is giving outside the church a part of the tithe?

Mal.3:10

Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house.

  • Tithing=1/10th

  • Tithing is returning the first 10% of our income back to God.
  • The first 10% belongs to God

Jesus says you should tithe

Lev.27:30 a tithe of everything from the land...belongs to the Lord...it is holy to the Lord.

Keeping from God= robbing

Mal.3:8 will a mere mortal rob God? Yet you rob me. But you ask how are we robbing you? In tithes and offerings.

Principle #1: Giving is a Skill--vs.7

Matt.23:23

For you are careful to tithe even the tiniest income from your her gardens, but you ignore the more important aspects of the law--justice, mercy, faith--You should tithe, yes, but do not neglect the more important things

Principle #2: Give beyond your ability--vs.3

Tithing is the starting point not the finish line

Tithing teaches me to put God first in my life

Principle #3: We give because God gave--vs.9

Principle #4: Give willingly according to your means-vs.12

Principle #5: You always reap what you sow--9:6

Principle #6--Giving forwards the gospel--9:9-12

DON'T BE A TEASPOON GIVER...BE A BOWLFUL GIVER!
