 1. Sovereign
 2. Good
 3. Worthy

 1 Corinthians 16:1-2  Page #1154

 1. Consistently

 2 Corinthians 8:1      Page #1159

 2.  Proportionately

 3.  Willingly

 1 Corinthians 9:14

 2 Corinthians 9:6-12   Page #1160

 4. Generously

 5.  Sacrificially

 Does my financial giving reflect “how great” God and His Kingdom is in my life?

 Am I willing to inhibit “my lifestyle” in order to give financially for “His Kingdom”?

 Do I give proportionate to what “I possess and make”?

 Would “others” think my financial giving to be generous or sacrificial?

 Do I believe the “rewards of heaven” are greater than the temporary pleasures of this earth?

 
Faith Sheet

Transformation Verse - And He has said to me, "My grace is sufficient for   you, for power is perfected in weakness"…      2 Corinthians 12:9 (NASB) 

 Times with the Lord this week - If you have extra time, look up the cross references with the Transformation Scripture.

  2. Review Sunday’s message with someone.
  3. Read Luke 6:38 and Acts 20:35. What principles do you see concerning financial giving?

# 2 - Preparing for Next Sunday

What The End Will Be Like

  1. Read Luke 21:1-24
  2. What prompted the disciples to ask about the future? (5-7)
  3. What do we learn about the “end times”? (8-9)?
  4. What signs will be evident? (9-13)
  5. Why must all this trouble happen? (22)
  6. How are you preparing for the “end times”?

Who all do you know that needs to hear from you about the times to come and the One who they will meet?
