  8. IV. A Biblical Perspective • The Father entrusts us with good things • James 1:17 Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shifting shadow. • Deuteronomy 8:18 “But you shall remember the LORD your God, for it is He who is giving you power to make wealth, that He may confirm His covenant which He swore to your fathers, as it is this day.

  9. Do business with this • Luke 19:12 - 13 12So He said, “A nobleman went to a distant country to receive a kingdom for himself, and then return.  13“And he called ten of his slaves, and gave them ten minas and said to them, ‘Do business with this until I come back.’ • Slaves called to show what business they had done • Faithful – more entrusted • Unfaithful – even what he has shall be taken away

  10. Return 10% • Malachi 3:6-12 • Should people cheat God? • Bring the tithe into the storehouse • Enough food in my temple • Open windows of heaven blessings • Put me to the test • Proverbs 11:24There is one who scatters, and yet increases all the more, And there is one who withholds what is justly due, and yet it results only in want.

  11. Increase of your account • Philippians 4:15 - 1715You yourselves also know, Philippians, that at the first preaching of the gospel, after I left Macedonia, no church shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving but you alone;  16for even in Thessalonica you sent a gift more than once for my needs.  17Not that I seek the gift itself, but I seek for the profit which increases to your account. 

  12. V. Enough Food in My Temple • Fully Funded and Fully Functional • Fully funded – each one that the Lord has called to be a part of this church – bringing their tithe into this storehouse • Fully functional – each person doing their own special part as a member of the body of Christ

  13. Budget – our best effort to plan matching our expenses with our receipts with our mission and purpose in mind – loving God and people too and making followers of Jesus
