What the Bible says about giving
The Bible sure has a ton to say about giving
to others as well as how and why GOD gives
to us. Below are only a few because there
are so many. Try searching some time and see
what you find. The Giving Principle is based
on the first one. And we know it works,
because we have seen it first hand.
Luke 6:38
Give,
and you will receive. Your gift will return
to you in full--pressed down, shaken
together to make room for more, running
over, and poured into your lap. The amount
you give will determine the amount
you get back."
Proverbs 11:24
Give freely and become more
wealthy; be stingy and lose everything.
Proverbs 22:9
Whoever is generous will be blessed
because he has shared his food with the
poor.
Malachi 3: 10"
Bring one-tenth of your
income into the storehouse so that there may
be food in my house. Test me in this way,"
says the LORD. "See if I won't open the
windows of heaven for you and flood you with
blessings.
2 Corinthians 9: 6-7
Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will
also reap sparingly, and whoever sows
generously will also reap generously. Each
man should give what he has decided
in his heart to give, not reluctantly or
under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful
giver.
Deuteronomy 15:10
Give
generously to the poor, not grudgingly, for
the LORD your God will bless you in
everything you do.
Mathew 6:2
When then you give money to the poor,
do not make a noise about it, as the
false-hearted men do So that your giving
may be in secret; and your Father, who
sees in secret, will give you your
reward.
Jeremiah 17:10
"I the LORD
search the heart and examine the mind, to
reward a man according to his conduct,
according to what his deeds deserve."
John 3:16
"For God so loved the world that he gave
his one and only Son, that whoever believes
in him shall not perish but have eternal
life.
