Paul’s instruction for giving in this section provide some principles for our giving today. First ,giving should be a priority (on the first day of the week). Second, giving is for everyone, everyone should bring something. Third ought to be proportional. Although everyone can give something, depending on what God has blessed us with we may have much more to give than another. Finally, giving should be purposeful, we need to plan to give. Like all spiritual disciplines giving is very unlikely to happen by accident.

 

Sermon Notes:

  1. Generous giving is a spiritual discipline and is part of our worship. (1 Cor. 16:2-3)
  2. Generosity is our response to God’s grace in our lives. (2 Cor. 8:9)
  3. A yielded heart asks, “How can I be generous with what I’ve been given?” rather than, “How much am I supposed to give?” (2 Cor. 8:1-5)
  4. A generous Christian exchanges temporary pleasure for an eternal investment. (Luke 12:33; 2 Cor. 9:6)
  5. Generosity builds up the church and glorifies God. (2 Cor. 9:11-13)
