THE LITTLE THAT MEANS ALOT Mark.12.41-44 : And Jesus sat over against the treasury... And there came a certain poor widow, and she threw in two mites.....And he called unto him his disciples, and saith unto them...that this poor widow hath cast more in, than all they which have cast into the treasury.....For all they did cast in of their .abundance; but she of her want did cast in all that she had, even all her living. From the above, we can see two things; 1. Nothing is too little to give. The woman gave the little she had to the work of God. She gave what she had 2. God values sacrificial giving. She gave all she had. Though it was small, but it was her life savings. Jesus knew this because of the gift of the Spirit, the woman told No one.. So don't feel bad if people mock your seed. As long as its your capacity and your best, it means a lot. Let's not forget to give to the work of God, our brethren and humanity at large. |

Dangerousboy:What did Jesus Christ say is "the work of God" that we are to give everything we have to? Obviously, Jesus Christ does call us to adopting of Old Covenant laws which is what the poor widow gave her mite in obedience to. Instead Jesus Christ calls us to each give directly to the person in need...Matthew 6 vs 1 - 4. |

Kobojunkie:when we give to our local church, we are giving to The work of God because the church uses the resources at its disposal to reach out to the lost through various means. Giving is the proof of love |

Dangerousboy:Where in the Gospels did Jesus Christ teach you to give to your "local churches"? Where in the Gospels does Jesus Christ teach you that the work done by your "local churches" is the 2work of God? What work constitutes the work of God and please provide references to these works you claim is of God? |
