The Joy of Generosity
In the face of prosperity theology we need to see what God has to say. There are 126 supercultural principles in the New Testmant about a Christian’s use of material possessions.
- #52 “Each according to his ability” (Acts 11:29)
- #68 Regularly, systematically, proportionally (1 Corinthians 16:2)
- #74 Responding immediately (2 Corinthians 8:12)
- #79 Making faith promises (2 Corinthians 9:5a)
- #80 Willingly and joyfully (2 Corinthians 9:5b)
- #71 Being accountable (2 Corinthians 8:6,10,11)
- #87 Supporting our local church (2 Corinthians 8:18,19)
Something to Think About!
“Thanks be to God for his indescribable gift” 2 Corinthians 9:15, 2 Corinthians 8:1-5
To study the principle more, Gene has written two books on the subject:
- Real Prosperity: Biblical Principles of Material Possessions
- Biblical Theology of Material Possessions
