2 Corinthians 8:8

Continuing through 2 Corinthians 8, Pastor Miles teaches that New Testament giving is wholly a giving of grace—never a mandate, tax, or means to receive—and that Paul's audacious comparison between the Macedonian and Corinthian churches reveals giving to be a threefold test: of our love, of our faith, and of God's faithfulness. The supreme example and motivation is Jesus Christ, who though rich became poor so that we might be made eternally rich.
