There's only one requirement for enjoying God's grace: being broke . . . and knowing it.

The tithe is God's historical method to get us on the path of giving. In that sense, it can serve as a gateway to the joy of grace giving. It's unhealthy to view tithing as a place to stop, but it can still be a good place to start.

Messin with me, is like wearing cheese underwear down rat alley. Ollie Chandler in Deception
Randy Alcorn
Someday this upside-down world will be turned right side up. Nothing in all eternity will turn it back again. If we are wise, we will use our brief lives on earth positioning ourselves for the turn.
Randy Alcorn
The repentant man rightfully loses trust in himself. He recognizes his self-dependence as the source of his problems, not the solution.

Whenever I see an unmarried woman carrying a child, my first response is one of respect. I know she could have taken the quick fix without anyone knowing, but she chose instead to let an innocent child live.

What you do with your resources in this life is your autobiography.

There's a throne in each life big enough for only one. Christ may be on that throne, or money may be. But both cannot occupy it.

When you leave this world, will you be known as one who accumulated treasures on earth that you couldn't keep? Or will you be recognized as one who invested treasures in heaven that you couldn't lose?

God gives us abundant material blessing so that we can give it away, and give it generously.

Why ask for your daily bread when you own the bakery?
Randy Alcorn
Christians are God's delivery people, through whom he does his giving to a needy world. We are conduits of God's grace to others. Our eternal investment portfolio should be full of the most strategic kingdom-building projects to which we can disburse God's funds.
Randy Alcorn
It's a law of life: the tyranny of things.
Randy Alcorn
Many Christians dread the thought of leaving this world. Why? Because so many have stored up their treasures on earth, not in heaven. Each day brings us closer to death. If your treasures are on earth, that means each day brings you closer to losing your treasures.
Randy Alcorn
But isn't it wrong to be motivated by reward? No, it isn't. If it were wrong, Christ wouldn't offer it to us a motivation.
Randy Alcorn
Give worshipfully. Our giving is a reflexive response to God's grace. It doesn't come out of our altruism - it comes out of the transforming work of Christ in us.
Randy Alcorn
The currency of this world will be worthless at our death or at Christ's return, both of which are imminent.
Randy Alcorn
I believe the most dangerous misconception is the idea our money and possessions belong to us, not God. Many of our problems begin when we forget that God is the Boss of the universe. But in fact He is more than the boss He is the owner.

Tomorrow's character is made out of today's thoughts. Temptation may come suddenly, but sin does not.
