Generous Contribution!
1. Motivation for Generous Giving – It is not in man’s natural character to be generous. Generosity originates from God’s grace. Being generous in times of need is “bountiful grace”. (v2)
2. Principle of Generous Giving -“first they gave their own selves to the Lord”. The real giving must include the self. This is the principle of contribution. (v5)
