More quotes by Randy Alcorn
Give voluntarily. When we catch a vision of God's grace, we will give beyond our duty.
Randy Alcorn
To procrastinate obedience is to disobey God.
Randy Alcorn
God gives us abundant material blessing so that we can give it away, and give it generously.
Randy Alcorn
When my thirst for joy is satisfied by Christ, sin becomes unattractive.
Randy Alcorn
In Heaven, to look into God's eyes will be to see what we've always longed to see: the person who made us for His own good pleasure. Seeing God will be like seeing everything else for the first time.
Randy Alcorn
Are we truly obeying the command to love our neighbor as ourselves if we're storing up money for potential future needs when our neighbor is laboring today under actual present needs?
Randy Alcorn
I imagine our first glimpse of Heaven will cause us to gasp in amazement and delight. That first gasp will likely be followed by many more as we continually encounter new sights in that endlessly wonderful place.
Randy Alcorn
Jesus tells you exactly how to get it. Put your money in missions-and in your church and the poor-and your heart will follow.
Randy Alcorn
Unless we learn how to humbly tell each other our giving stories, our churches will not learn to give.
Randy Alcorn
This is one of the great paradoxes of suffering. Those who don't suffer much think suffering should keep people from God, while many who suffer a great deal turn to God, not from him.
Randy Alcorn
If God was the owner, I was the manager. I needed to adopt a steward's mentality toward the assets He had entrusted - not given - to me. A steward manages assets for the owner's benefit. The steward carries no sense of entitlement to the assets he manages. It's his job to find out what the owner wants done with his assets, then carry out his will.
Randy Alcorn
Give sacrificially. We don't like risky faith. We like to have our safety net below us. But we miss the adventure of seeing God provide when we've really stretched ourselves in giving.
Randy Alcorn
He who lays up treasures on earth spends his life backing away from his treasures. To him, death is loss. He who lays up treasures in heaven looks forward to eternity he's moving daily toward his treasures. To him, death is gain. He who spends his life moving toward his treasures has reason to rejoice. Are you despairing or rejoicing?
Randy Alcorn
God is the greatest giver in the universe, He won’t let you outgive Him.
Randy Alcorn
Hell is not evil it's a place where evil gets punished. Hell is not pleasant, appealing, or encouraging. But Hell is morally good, because a good God must punish evil.
Randy Alcorn
For Christians this present life is the closest they will come to Hell. For unbelievers, it is the closest they will come to Heaven.
Randy Alcorn
The greatest deterrent to giving is the illusion that this earth is our home.
Randy Alcorn
I detest legalism. I certainly don't want to try to pour new wine into old wineskins, imposing superseded First Covenant restrictions on Christians. But at the same time, every New Testament example of giving goes far beyond the tithe. However, none falls short of it.
Randy Alcorn
Put your resources, your assets, your money and possessions, your time and talents and energies into the things of God. As surely as the compass needle follows north, your heart will follow your treasure. Money leads hearts follow.
Randy Alcorn
In the midst of prosperity, the challenge for believers is to handle wealth in such a way that it acts as a blessing, not a curse.
