The world’s economy is run on money, but heaven’s economy is run on grace.
John believes that the Kingdom of God is established and governed by the grace of God, and so in order to bring heaven to earth he should seek to give heaven’s riches away – that is God’s grace. John has a revelation of just how much grace has been poured out upon his life, and so as a ‘kingdom giver’ he wants to live his life having grace for others and sharing it with those God puts along his path.
Pastor Moses likes the idea of people being a ‘kingdom giver’… so long as the giving ends up in the building fund. It seems that ‘grace’ doesn’t hold much value in that regard… John can’t help but think maybe that’s why God never asked us to build buildings for him in the first place?
The truth is that the Kingdom of God does not need our giving but it’s totally built on the raw materials of God. Nonetheless I would still give to my brother’s needs.
Kingdom giver?? naa just a cheerful one.
Kingdom Giving and tithing, what a bunch of poop the churches and seminaries teach.
Ha! this is a good one!
Kingdom giver gives his kingdom…We love because He first loves us. Christ gave us His kingdom, letting us to partake as joint heir. As we are transformed by Christ into His image, we let others partake more and more of our kingdom (which actually is His, we are just stewards).
nice one Meng
