The numbers are growing exponentially.<br><br>Then this Father told His children, “Here, take this $500millions and build a bigger house so more children can come.”<br><br>Some of the children rejoices, but some said, “This amount of $$$ SHOULD be given to the poor!” (Sounds familiar? Judas’ spirit still alive!)<br><br>So the Father said, “OK how much you wish to give to the poor? Would another $500millions help your cause? Here, this is $1billion, if it is not enough to help the poor, ask me for more.”<br><br>The complaining children still not too convinced. You know why? This is because they think the $$$ came from them, and not their Father.<br><br>(A) So some believe:<br><br> gives $ gives $<br>Father ===> children ===> build bigger house<br><br>(B) and some believe:<br><br> gives $ gives $<br>children ===> Father ===> build bigger house<br><br>so these children think a better way is:<br><br> gives bigger % $<br>children ==============> poor, then<br><br> gives some $ gives $<br>children ===========> Father =======> build /<br>rent house<br><br>Shalom Shalom,<br>WilliamLiuhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00610611478296148248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9053305825078372051.post-45092150647787803472009-07-19T08:48:41.091+08:002009-07-19T08:48:41.091+08:00Shalom.

Why should the work stop while I leave it and go down to you?" 4 Four times they sent me the same message, and each time I gave them the same answer. <br><br>Let us stay up Mt.Zion and let people say what they wanna say.

The ...Hey bro... thanks for the concise exposition. <br><br>The reason we are explaining is not that we have to but we want to, especially to fellow believers. We own no one any explaination since it is really our own business; but we want other believers to understand and be equally encouraged as this project progresses. <br><br>On the other hand, the world can say whatever, well, whatever... we don't really care.<br><br>I don't believe we are squandering our stewarding resources away. We are giving to God, and how God with the church use it is between them and God. We are called to give, we give. God is sovereign, if anything, God handles them, not us.<br><br>We give with our eyes very wide open. We are rather intelligent and logically, not the least stupid to give our hard-earned money away just like that, especially in such economic situations. Yes, we are aware of the economic downturn, we too are concern, but nevertheless, our God-Jesus Christ is way bigger.<br><br>The darker the world, the LIGHT shines brighter...kingdavidhttp://kingdavid.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9053305825078372051.post-86597476833400127162009-03-13T16:56:00.000+08:002009-03-13T16:56:00.000+08:00LOL Angie!
