TEXT: 2 CORINTHIANS 9:10-15

 

INTRO:

           
            In the Scripture, there are two kinds of giving: Giving to God and giving to the Government. Giving to God which is always voluntary and giving to the government which is always involuntarily.

            Apostle spent two chapters in his second epistle to the Corinthians explaining to them “the grace of giving”

            In our text Paul tells us the Resource, the Reason and the Result of our generous giving.

 

  1. THE REWARD OF GIVING. (2 COR. 9:10)

II.         THE REASON FOR GIVING. (2 COR 9:11)
                    To be generous on every occasion

  1. THE RESULT OF GIVING. (2 COR 9:12-14)

                                                                           i.      The needs of God’s people will be supplied. (2 Cor. 9:12)

                                                                         ii.      They will give thanks to God. (2 cor. 9:12b)

                                                                        iii.      They will praise God. (2 Cor. 9:13a)

                                                                       iv.      They will obey God. (2 Cor. 9:13b)

                                                                         v.      They will draw near to God. (2 Cor. 9:!4)
