What is Christian Giving? Sermon What is Christian Giving? Luke 19 Introduction

Luther quote on 3 conversions -conversion of the mind to gospel truth; -conversion of the heart to embrace the Lord Jesus as Savior and Master; -conversion of the purse, wallet, or pocketbook, the laying of one’s money at Christ’s feet.

He entered Jericho and was passing through He entered Jericho and was passing through. 2 And behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus. He was a chief tax collector and was rich. 3 And he was seeking to see who Jesus was, but on account of the crowd he could not, because he was small in stature.

4 So he ran on ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see him, for he was about to pass that way. 5 And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up and said to him, “Zacchaeus, hurry and come down, for I must stay at your house today.”

6 So he hurried and came down and received him joyfully 6 So he hurried and came down and received him joyfully. 7 And when they saw it, they all grumbled, “He has gone in to be the guest of a man who is a sinner.” 8 And Zacchaeus stood and said to the Lord, “Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor. And if I have defrauded anyone of anything, I restore it fourfold.”

9 And Jesus said to him, “Today salvation has come to this house, since he also is a son of Abraham. 10 For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.” (Luke 19:1-10 ESV)

SO, WHAT IS Christian GIVING? - Christian giving is both a spiritual gift and a discipline to our Lord Jesus Christ. J.I. PACKER

“All spiritual gifts are types of disciplines, and if we are not actively traveling the path of generous giving, it will have to be said of us straightway that we really are weak and deficient in our discipleship to and dependence upon Christ Jesus our Lord – which means that we need, urgently, to change our ways.”

Christian GIVING is Management of God’s Money Christian GIVING is a Mind-set regarding God’s Money

Non-giver ---- start giving Random giver– become a priority giver – Take a step of faith from where you are: Non-giver ---- start giving Random giver– become a priority giver – Priority Percentage giver -- prayerfully consider how you can grow in giving.

The ABC’s of coming to faith – A - Admit that you’re weak and need grace and strength – That means there is GOOD NEWS FOR YOU B- Believe that Jesus is the only savior who can heal your heart. C- confess to God that you want to trust Jesus as your savior and Lord.
