Memo

“The Bible talks more on giving than it does about Heaven or Hell. Why do you suppose that is the case?”

“When you take care of God’s Kingdom, He will take care of yours!”

Giving of a willing heart, and why God loves a cheerful giver.

“The earth is the LORD’S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.”

Psalm 24:1

“What is your money saying in Heaven?”

“…prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing…”

“His character is on trial, and He’s never lost a case.”

Matthew 6:19–21 · Malachi 3:7–11 · Psalm 37:25

Heaven has an exchange rate. Tithing as the one place God says, “prove me.”
