Internet Bible Study - Chapter 20 - September 2008

CHAPTER 20 - A LESSON FOR CHURCH LEADERS
God’s guidance for offertory gifts is not limited to church members but guidance also exists for church leaders. The Biblical account of Jesus’ feeding of 5000 men with a boy’s lunch establishes a pattern for church involvement in God’s ministry efforts and the distribution of offertory gifts for ministry work.
Reference Scripture:
John 6: 1 – 12 (2 fish & 5 loaves)
Supporting Scriptures:
2 Corinthians 8 (Macedonian giving)
Matthew 14 (2 fish & 5 loaves)
Malachi 3: 10 (that there may be meat in my house)
