“Giving: Living the Discipline of Generosity”

I. Giving under the mosaic covenant. (Numbers 18:21-24)

II. The Introduction of the New Covenant. (Luke 22:20)

III. Giving in the New Covenant.

Through the cross, tithing becomes a model and not a mandate

1. Based on the gospel
2. The social class of Christianity is generosity.
3. Based on New testament principles for giving.

   • Give regularly.

   • Give according to how you prosper.

   • The more you give, the more you will have to give.

   • We should give intentionally, cheerfully and without ​​​​compulsion.

   • We should give knowing that God is the supplier of all ​​​grace that we need.​
