    I voted to close the church; not intentionally, not maliciously perhaps, but carelessly, thoughtlessly, lazily, indifferently, I voted.

    I felt challenged to preach this because of the un-biblical approach to giving in my largest Church, & try to explain that our giving either honours or dishonours God.

    Proverbs 3:1-18 Malachi 3:6-12 Texts: Proverbs 3:9 -10 ‘Honour the LORD with your wealth, with the first fruits of all your crops; then your barns will be filled to overflowing, and your vats will brim over with new wine. ’ Malachi 3:10 ‘Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may ...read more

Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Ezekiel 36:21-23 (KJV) But I had pity for mine holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the heathen, whither they went.

God uses us to spread his knowledge everywhere like a sweet-smelling perfume.” (ERV) I would like to highlight a few words from the above mentioned verse. ...read more
