Giving

Luke 3:11  

John answered, “The man with two tunics should share with him who has none, and the one who has food should do the same.”

Luke 6:30  

Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back.

Luke 6:38  

Give and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.”

Acts 20:35  

In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”

Romans 12:8  

If it is encouraging, let him encourage; if it is contributing to the needs of others, let him give generously; if it is leadership, let him govern diligently; if it is showing mercy, let him do it cheerfully.

2 Corinthians 9:6-8  

6 Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously. 

7 Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. 

8 And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.

Galatians 6:7  

Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.

Philippians 4:15-17  

15 Moreover, as you Philippians know, in the early days of your acquaintance with the gospel, when I set out from Macedonia, not one church shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving, except you only; 

16 for even when I was in Thessalonica, you sent me aid again and again when I was in need. 

17 Not that I am looking for a gift, but I am looking for what may be credited to your account.

James 2:15-16  

15 Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. 

16 If one of you says to him, “Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about his physical needs, what good is it?
