'Regular Giving Is The Correct Way.'
1 Corinthians 16:2.
a) On the first day of every week Apostle Paul asked the Corinthian Church to put aside some money for the Kingdom of God.
b) The money put aside should be appropriate in comparison with income or salary.
c) There should be no need for 'special collections' in the Church if the Church is giving properly.
(This Second one teaches me that Regular Giving Is The Correct Way.

Chris.
Regular giving is the correct way. When I think of the time when Jesus saw the poor old lady giving her very small offering to the Synagogue His response to her was very interesting. He did not release her from the offering and tell her not to give because she was poor. He did not ask her to give more. Jesus saw her worshipful heart and fully accepted what she gave.
