Sermon 1617A - Giving - 2nd Message…..(Fri pm 2/27/98)

GIVING - 2ND MESSAGE......(FRI PM 2/27/98)

This message emphasizes the first point of the Stature of Truth about Giving, which is the giving of tithes. Luke 6:38 shows how God rewards us for our giving. When we give our tithes, God gives us a good measure of His Wisdom. God waters the earth with natural water so that we might have corn and bread to eat, and He enriches our spiritual earth with the River of God that carries Seeds of Truth that cause us to grow and increase in the Spiritual Stature of Jesus Christ (Psalm 65:9). Abraham paid tithes under the dispensation of Grace. Moses paid tithes under the dispensation of the Law. And, now, since Calvary, New Testament believers are to pay tithes under the dispensation of Grace. The lesson also explains how paying our tithes affects our Moral High Calling and our Material High Calling.
