‘Victory Through Jesus Christ.’
1 John 2:1-2.
a) This letter was written to the Church so that they would not sin.

We should never be manipulated into giving in God’s Kingdom. Whether it is Church giving or Mission giving this giving needs to come from a free and joyful heart. When manipulation is present that makes everything difficult for everyone and surely does not please God.
