It has been said that “the proper study of mankind is man.” I believe it is equally true that the proper study of God’s elect is God; the proper study of a Christian is the Godhead.

Our days are few, and are far better spent in doing good, than in disputing over matters which are, at best, of minor importance. 

Here are some child sponsorship ministries we support and highly recommend.

From The Discovery of Genesis, C.H. Kang and Ethel Nelson.

Jiang and her mother-in-law knew the risk of spreading Christian literature in Communist China. 

We do not long for non-body, non-earth and non-culture, but for new body, New Earth, and new culture—without sin and death. This is all part of longing for the resurrection, which is at the heart and soul of the Christian faith (1 Corinthians 15).

Tithing is done on profit—what you have truly made, how much you’ve actually come out ahead. That wouldn’t include all gross business income, since much, usually most, of that must pay for the business goods, employees, etc., which are providing the services making the money in the first place.

Dwight Myers is the shipping clerk for Eternal Perspective Ministries. He also monitors inventory and receives incoming book shipments from publishers and suppliers. October 1st will be Dwight’s 3rd anniversary of working for EPM. 

There are some things for which words cannot do justice—sights, smells, and sounds that make the heart come alive, that renew our passions, and that whisper to us of the presence of a good God.

Over the last ten years, I’ve been suggesting that we learn how to share testimonies about giving in order to help the body of Christ grow in the grace of giving.

If I were you I would take the money I would have spent on the Corvette, and give it to missions and famine relief. Everyone comes out ahead that way—God is glorified, people are kept alive and reached with the gospel, and you will lay up treasures in heaven, and Jesus says your heart will follow your treasures.

While getting out of debt is a high biblical priority it is as much a wisdom issue as a righteousness one, and requires discernment and good strategy not just a single act of obedience.

I would tithe on gifts and scholarships because they are true income.
