Giving

At PFBC we follow some basic principles for giving, teach that it is for all Christians, in accordance with our means. It is to be done cheerfully, sacrificially, as an act of worship, and as a response to God’s grace in our lives.

Why we Give

As with all things in the life of the Christian, the practice of Christian giving and generosity should be in line with what the Scriptures reveal on the topic. To that end, we would direct you to meditate on four specific passages from the New Testament as you consider your giving: Matthew 6:1-4, 1 Corinthians 16:1-2, 2 Corinthians 8:9-15 and 9:6-7.
A survey of these particular passages will reveal the basic principles we follow for Christian giving, summarized here:
For All ChristiansThe Bible says giving is an expectation of every believer. Jesus said, “when you give,” not “if you give.” (Matt 6:2)
In accordance with our meansOur giving is to be in line with the means of an individual or family. (2 Corinthians 8:12, 1 Corinthians 16:2)
CheerfullyGiving is to be done cheerfully and willingly, not grudgingly or under compulsion. (2 Corinthians 9:7)
SacrificiallyFollowers of Jesus should practice sacrificial giving, noting that sacrifice looks very different for different households. God is not honoured by the amount, but by the sacrifice.
As an act of worshipThe Bible teaches that our giving should be an act of worship, not for the end of being admired by others, but with the motivation to glorify God and serve his people and mission. (Matt 6:1, 1 Corinthians 16:2)
As a response to graceThe generosity we practice in our lives is simply done as a worshipful response to that which has been done for us. Giving as a generous, worshipful response is tied to the generosity of God in the way he has given the mostly costly gift. (2 Corinthians 8:9)
