    Contributed by Steven Simala Grant on Apr 5, 2011
     | 8,031 views

    The way of the Kingdom of Jesus is one of trust in God, which frees us to be "merciful" and give to others, knowing that God is a God of justice and compassion, full of mercy and love.

    What an amazing paradox! If it is not a paradox it is at least the opposite of what our culture tells us today. The paradox is that Jesus says that the man who mourns will be really happy. The world regards such a statement as utterly ridiculous. Who want

    BLESSINGS OR CURSES? There is a story about a mountain climber who wanted to climb the highest mountain. He began his adventure after many years of preparation. Since he wanted the glory just for himself, he decided to climb the mountain alone. The night felt heavy in the heights of the ...read more

    It is a biblical principle mentioned in 2 Corinthians that if we “Give generously .... Reap generously.” However, if we “Give sparingly ... Reap sparingly.” God is no one’s debtor.

    Opening illustration: Story of Crystal Jagnow … Introduction: The Bible tells us it is more blessed to give than receive. There are many spiritual laws in place for the giver. We must all learn to be givers in the right way. The Word of God says that we must be cheerful givers. We also must learn ...read more
