Christianity Etc › Re: 10 Bible Verses On Tithing by rhektor(m): 11:33pm On Mar 12, 2017
berrystunn:
2. Because Jesus commands it:



"Yes, you should tithe, and you shouldn't leave the more important things undone either." (Matthew 23:23) Tithing was the only thing Jesus commended the Pharisees for doing right!

Jesus did not support tithe. Matthew 23:23)

Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for you pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought you to have done, and not to leave the other undone.
Jesus did not condemn tithing but lay more emphasis on judgment mercy and faith. He only disapprove of thirty attitude of taking tithe as more important than upholding the law (judgement, mercy and faith).
God bless you

RCCG SUNDAY SCHOOL MANUAL
LESSON TWENTY-EIGHT
SUNDAY, 12TH MARCH 2017
TOPIC: MANAGING GRACE

MEMORY VERSE: ‘’But grow in grace, and knowledge of our Lord and saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen." - 2Peter 3:18
BIBLE PASSAGE: 2Peter 1:2-7

INTRODUCTION:
The grace of God is available to everyone (Ephesians 4:7). Grace is not just available for salvation (Titus 2:11), but also for the total well-being of those who receive it (2Corinthians 9:cool. However, what you do with the grace of God available to you will determine who and what you become in life (1Corinthians 15:10). It is important for every believer to embrace the grace of God and run with it (Ephesians 3:cool. We shall, therefore, be considering what grace can do in the life of the recipient as well as what the recipient can do with or against grace.

LESSON OUTLINES
1. What can grace do?
2. What can one do with or against grace?

WHAT CAN GRACE DO?
Grace can do numerous things but for the purpose of this study, we shall mention a few. For instance:
1. Grace can save the world (Genesis 6:8, Titus 2:11)
2. Grace can make one God's elect (Romans 11:5-6)
3. Grace gives boldness (Romans 15:15)
4. Grace gives endurance (2Corinthians 12:9)
5. Grace imparts riches (Ephesians 2:7)
6. Grace brings hope (2Thessalonians 2:16)
7. Grace changes lives (1Corinthians 15:9-10)

WHAT CAN ONE DO WITH OR AGAINST GRACE?

Individuals can respond to grace in the following ways among others:
1. Receive it (James 4:6)
2. Work with it (2Peter 1:5-7; Colossians 1:29)
3. Continue or discontinue in it (Acts 13:43; 1Corinthians 15:58)
4. Minister it to others (1Peter 4:10)
5. Grow in it (2Peter 3:18)
There are also negative responses to grace by some individuals.

Such actions against grace include:
1. Receiving it in vain (2Corinthians 6:1,3)
2. Frustrating it in one's life (Galatians 2:21)
3. Falling from it (Galatians 1:6)
4. Sinning in spite of it (Romans 6:1)
5. Turning it into filthiness (Jude 4)

CONCLUSION:
To manage grace is to accept and appropriate it for God's glory.

QUESTIONS
1. What can grace do for you?
2. What can you do with or against grace?

Those that attended the training are enumerators but they were told that some of them would move to logistics and or billing but the job starts with enumerator.

It is more of a loss to the Atheists when they die and realised that we've been right. But if they were actually right (which I'm sure can never be) then we have nothing to loose as we've lived a life on earth worthy of appreciation

RCCG SUNDAY SCHOOL STUDENTS MANUAL
(LESSON TWENTY-SEVEN)
SUNDAY 5TH MARCH 2017
TOPIC: DESCRIPTION OF GRACE

MEMORY VERSE: "I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.” – Galatians 2:21

BIBLE PASSAGE: Ephesians 2:4-9
INTRODUCTION:

The doctrine of Grace is the centre piece of our faith as Christians. It is by the grace of God that we are what we are, that is – Christians (1Corinthians 15:10a). It is grace that has declared us righteous before God Almighty not our works (Titus 3:7; Ephesians 2:8-9). Our Lord Jesus came and fulfilled ALL the Law and enacted a new order called – GRACE (John 1:17). May the Holy Spirit gives us understanding as we study this very important doctrine.

LESSON OUTLINES
1. Grace Described
2. Types of grace

GRACE DESCRIBED
The Hebrew and Greek words for grace are ‘chen’ and ‘charis’ respectively meaning favour, mercy, kindness, etc. Divine grace is the free and undeserved love and favour of God towards man as a sinner, especially as exhibited in the plan of redemption through Jesus Christ (Romans 5:8 ). Grace can also be described as divine enablement to please God (Romans 8:8; 1Thessalonians 4:1). This is what the Law could not do because it was weak (Romans 8:3; Galatians 2:16). Grace is also the divine power that teaches us to deny ungodliness and worldly lusts but to live righteously, soberly and godly in this present world (Titus 2:11-12). Grace was brought by the Lord Jesus Christ (John 1:17). So, when we receive the Lord Jesus into our lives, we receive grace, that is divine enablement to live a holy and righteous life (Romans 3:24-26). Grace works by and with the faith of the Son of God (Ephesians 2:8; Galatians 2:20).

TYPES OF GRACE
To help us process the magnitude of God’s grace, we need to point out the varying kinds of grace He pours out on us daily. This list is not comprehensive by any means, but it should help to get us thinking and appreciating God’s grace.
1.Common Grace: God loves everyone. So, there is a common grace that He gives all people whether they acknowledge Him or not (Matthew 5:45).
2.Saving Grace: By His saving grace, God has paid the ransom for everyone who will receive His gift of salvation (Ephesians 2:cool. This alone is overwhelming.
3.Sanctifying Grace: After salvation, God’s grace immediately goes to work to purify or sanctify us. You play a part in your purification through obedience, but ultimately you have to count on His sanctifying grace (Philippians 1:6).
4.Provisional Grace: Through His provisional grace, God provides for all our needs (James 1:17). When you get a better job or an unexpected gift, count it as grace from God.
5.Miraculous Grace: Through His grace, God still does miraculous things every day. He does not have to do this. He does it because He is full of grace (Acts 6:cool.
6.Serving Grace: Every believer is freely given spiritual gifts to serve others and strengthen their faith (1Peter 4:10).
7.Sustaining Grace: God sustains us by His grace on the journey to eternal life and through the trials and temptations in this present world (2Corinthians 12:9; Hebrews 4:16).

CONCLUSION
God gives us unmerited favour in so many different forms. His grace and mercy are limitless.

QUESTIONS:
1. Describe grace in three different ways?
2. Mention and discuss the types of grace?
