A Christian theology with ponderings on: God, sin, grace, faith, man, and the state of the church and its worship today. The aim of this blog is to both challenge the Church and build up the Church for the glory of God.

Money
CIT filed for bankruptcy this weekend. However the bankruptcy goes, this will have a big affect on a large number of small businesses. This reminds me how we cannot trust correctly put our trust in money. We can't take any money with us when we die. We can only send our money ahead to heaven by giving it freely now. Of course Jesus wants us to give cheerfully. But, if we are not cheerful givers we should not give up on giving. We should figure out how to change our sinful hearts so that we become cheerful givers. It is only our sin that prevents us from loving to give. Jesus says that it is better to give than to receive - if we do not see this we need to figure out how we can see this beautiful truth.
