1. The Grace of Giving We want you to know, brothers about the grace of God that has been given among the churches of Macedonia, for in a severe test of affliction, their abundance of joy and their extreme poverty have overflowed in a wealth of generosity on their part. 2 Cor 8:1,2

GRACE- CHARIS v1 - about the grace of God that has been given v4 - begging us earnestly for the favour (charis) v6 - …should complete among you this act of grace.  v7 - see that you excel in this act of grace also. v9 - For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ….

9 For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor, so that you by his poverty might become rich.

4 begging us earnestly for the favour of taking part in the relief of the saints

6 Accordingly, we urged Titus that as he had started, so he should complete among you this act of grace. 7 But as you (Corinthians) excel in everything—in faith, in speech, in knowledge, in all earnestness, and in our love for you—see that you excel in this act of grace also.

2. The Discipline of Giving …but they gave themselves first to the Lord and then by the will of God to us. 2 Cor 8:5

"But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing..” Matthew 6:3

3. The Blessing of Giving For if the readiness is there, it is acceptable according to what a person has, not according to what he does not have. For I do not mean that others should be eased and you burdened, but that as a matter of fairness your abundance at the present time should supply their need, so that their abundance may supply your need, that there may be fairness. As it is written, “Whoever gathered much had nothing left over, and whoever gathered little had no lack.” 2 Cor 8: 12-15

He who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your seed for sowing and increase the harvest of your righteousness. You will be enriched in every way to be generous in every way, which through us will produce thanksgiving to God. 2 Cor 9: 10-11
