The Christian and Finances, Part 2

By John Evans

Benchley, June 7, 2009

  • I Corinthians 4:2?- Be good stewards of God’s blessings.
  • Hard work is better than any “get-rich quick” scheme.
    • Over and over again, the Bible emphasizes the importance of diligence and industry.? Proverbd 10:2-5, 24:30-34; II Thessalonians 3:10
    • Don’t be surprised if the cupboard is bare because you have not worked.
  • You must live within your means.
    • You cannot spend more than you make – at least not for long!? (You must budget!)
    • Luke 15:11-16; John 6:10-12?- Frugality and thrift are two virtues encouraged by the Bible.
    • Remember, however, that there is a difference between frugality and stinginess.? Matthew 25:34-40? One saves so that he can provide for his own and those less fortunate than himself.
