GRACE OF GIVING!

Image
Giving is a gift, God expects us to give others so to receive from Him. 2 Corinthians 8 We are expected to: 1. Give our whole life totally to Christ. 2.  Love God with all our heart generously, with our time, talent, and treasure. 3. Give cheerfully, not hoping to receive immediately. 4. Give because you love God and don't rob Him. 4. Give at all time. Not only when you feel like it. 5. Give to God as He blesses you. Our giving must be sacrificial. God bless you as you give generously!

HINDRANCES TO HOLINESS Text: 1Peter 1:13-16. Aim: I.  To remind us that there are hindrances to holiness;          II.  To know that these hindrances can be overcome.
