Under the New Covenant, we give because we love the Lord. We love the Lord because he has enabled us to become sons and daughters of God (John 1:12). We become sons and daughters of God when we grow in his Word, can hear his voice, and are led by the Spirit of God. The Spirit of God leads us as we present our bodies a living sacrifice and as we are transformed by the renewing of our minds. We present our bodies a living sacrifice by daily denying our flesh—denying ourselves. We renew our minds by daily, continuous study, belief, obedience and understanding of the Word of God. We deny ourselves, our will, for the will of the Father—"I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father ... " (John 5:30) The will of the Father is that we love as he loves. "For God so loved the world, that he gave ... " (John 3:16). To give is to love and to love is to give. When we don't give we don't love: "My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth" (1 John 3:18). We love when we give as he gave: the best and the first. We give, first of ourselves and secondly of our possessions: "every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver" (2 Corinthians 9:7).

The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again: but the righteous sheweth mercy, and giveth. (Psalm 37:21)

We give our best and we give to God first through giving to the poor and needy (Matthew 25:34-40). The will of God is for us to willingly give to those who ask (Matthew 5:42), to willingly give alms—give to the poor (Luke 11:41), and to willingly give to support other Christians—minister to the saints (Hebrews 6:10).

He that giveth unto the poor shall not lack: but he that hideth his eyes shall have many a curse. (Proverbs 28:27)

He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the LORD; and that which he hath given will he pay him again. (Proverbs 19:17)

Praise the Lord! We thank you for your financial support of this ministry. Every seed that you sow is used to fulfill our mission of "preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God and resurrecting the body of Christ out of the miry clay of tradition."

For the administration of this service not only supplieth the want of the saints, but is abundant also by many thanksgivings unto God. (2 Corinthians 9:12)

For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister. (Hebrews 6:10)

May God bless you for your generous giving!
