I'm half-way listening to some dude online talk to a group of students about the "Giving Revolution." He's discussing how he feels the Bible "compels us to give" and how it's different from those who say, "I give what the Lord leads me to give."
Wow.
The funny thing to me is that as I'm listening to him dissect what his views on giving are, it sounds like those who say, "I give what the Lord leads me to give" have a more biblical stance...because that statement would imply that their focus is on the Lord.
He spends a significant amount of time talking about how we just make up in our mind what we want to give and give it cheerfully.
Hhhmmm...
I think it sounds rather biblical to "fix our eyes on Jesus"...even in the giving department.
Ouch...he just said that the "act of giving increases our personal godliness."
Ok, I'm not going to write anymore about this. :)
