Hi, i am new here and I have a question: Everyone should donate money to Landover Baptist Church if they so wish and will doing so greatly improve their chances of being saved?

Yes.

Re: Money

I find it unusual that you would post 2 Tim. 4:1 and not its natural, logical and even grammatical partner, 2 Tim 4:2. Let's look at the two of them together since they are only separated by a semi-colon, hmm?

(2 Timothy 4:1-2) "I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom; Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine."

That changes things a little bit, doesn't it?

See, many people think that the first verse tells us that only God judges, but in context you will see that it says WE will be judged if we DON'T use His Word to preach, rebuke and exhort.

In reality, the very part of the Bible that people try to use against us in fact supports our mission.

Pretty cool, huh?



Yours in Christ,

Re: Money

Re: Money

Giving money to Jesus is a method of showing your devotion.
God sees a rich man and could care less about tithes from him as making another million is a walk in the park. What God really wants to see is the person who is broke, cannot feed his family or provide even the most basic of necessities. God expects that man to give 50% or more of all money to Him.
So you can see, God is not after getting the millions of dollars, he wants the $1.00 from the man that only has $2.00

You don't want to be caught robbing God, do you?

Malachi 3:8-10: Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings. Ye [are] cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, [even] this whole nation. Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that [there shall] not [be room] enough [to receive it].

Re: Money

I attend the holy church of Thomas the doubter,Frickasee County, Jesus touched me when i was a small child and my favourite passage in the bible is : 2 Timothy 4:1 - I charge [thee] therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom.
By the way sir, the question wasn't just for me but also for others that would like to contribute to the wonderful work that the Landover Church is doing

Re: Money

Hi, i am new here and I have a question: Everyone should donate money to the worthy, and as the Bible says:It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven.. so how can members send all their money to the Landover Baptist Church if they so wish and will doing so greatly improve their chances of being saved?

What church do you go to, what is your favourite Bible verse and when did Jesus first touch you?

Then we can get on to all the good works Landover does.
