Hello wonderful people of MCGI, I'm very happy to be part of this great family.
It was a power packed teaching of the doctrines of Christ today. The servant of God Bro Elisoriano completely explain with reference to the Bible how giving in the church should be done in the church, he said giving or contributions should be done voluntarily and not by compulsion or grudgingly.
Important Lesson learned from today's teaching.
Vows: The servant of God
Bro Eli said vows are done voluntarily and should not be forced by anyone. So whenever you make a vow it should be made completely from your heart and must not be imposed by anyone, you decide to make your own vow willingly. The Bible also says whenever you make a vow you must fulfill it, because you weren't forced since you willingly made it you should fulfill it also, God hates those who make vows and do not fulfil it. In order not to attract curse to yourself always fulfil the vow you made in the house of God.
Contribution: Contributions are also made voluntarily in the house of God. This contributions should not be a fixed amount imposed by the church to the members, let be like a free will donations, as God has blessed each members let them give accordingly to the amount they have decided. It is not also good to boast about your contribution, whatever amount you give in the church should be between you and God only, no other person should know, that is the right way contributions are done.
Thanksgiving: Thanksgiving is also a voluntarily act in the house of God. You are ought to thank God for what he has done for you no matter how small it is. All believers should learn the act of Thanksgiving, because God has been blessing us and have also granted us to enjoy the privilege others could not enjoy. There are many reasons to give thanks, so in everything always give thanks and let the offering of praises not seize from your lips.
Giving: Giving to the poor and needy is done voluntarily in the house of God. You have been blessed by God, you should never hesitate to help your brethren who are in need of help, if you have food give to those who doesn't, if you have clothes give to those who can't afford them. Always extend a hand of help to the poor and needy in the church when you know you are capable of doing that, there is always a reward from God to those who give to the poor. It is always good to good.
Thanks be to God for the teachings today, I can't wait to be part of the next Mass Indoctrination.
