House Church Part. 5. Giving and Money!

Welcome to Part. 5. in this series on House Church. This week we are tackling the subject of giving and money which is a controversial topic. When I first started down the path of meeting in homes, there wasn't much if any at all teaching about what to do with giving. Yet giving is an important subject in the Bible. It is even a part of our worship of God, honouring Him first rather than the god of mammon. In this video, I hope to bring you beyond the traditional thinking of the institutional church matrix. God's perspective is much broader! His priorities are different to how many of us have been taught. Prepare to expand your thinking......

Great clarification Ant. If only more taught the truth.

100%. The Jews fell into this same trap as well, hoarding wealth rather than giving it to the fatherless and the widow and the poor. The story of the widow's 2 mites is a rebuke to those that would take away from the poor. Interestingly I heard an anecdote that the Catholic church makes their priests celibate so that they have the right to their property once they die. "For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil, for which some have strayed from the faith in their greediness, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows." 1 Timothy 6:10. The giving system in church is very inefficient. Great message.
