Welcome To Pastor Garry Clarks PowerPoint presentation from the September 3rd sermon:INSIDE JOB!MONEY!Information on ordering a DVD copy of this sermon will be available at the end of this presentation

1 Timothy 6:6-12 6 But godliness with contentment is great gain. 7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. 8 And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.

1 Timothy 6:6-12 9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. 10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

1 Timothy 6:6-12 11 But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness. 12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.

THE LOVE OF MONEY HAS RUINED MANY CHURCHES Embezzelment Mismanagement EntitlementsLuke 14:11 For whosoever exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.

The Apostle Paul Dealt With Some Money Issues In The Corinthian Church Just Like He Dealt With Divisions, Gossip, Immorality, Etc.

1 Corinthians 9:9-11 & 14 9 For it is written in the law of Moses, thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? 10 Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope.

1 Corinthians 9:9-11 & 14 11 If we have sown unto you spiritual things, is it a great thing if we shall reap your carnal things?14 Even so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should live of the gospel.

TAKE CARE OF MINISTERS AND STAFF!

2 Corinthians 9:1-5 1 For as touching the ministering to the saints, it is superfluous for me to write to you: 2 For I know the forwardness of your mind, for which I boast of you to them of Macedonia, that Achaia was ready a year ago; and your zeal hath provoked very many.

2 Corinthians 9:1-5 3 Yet have I sent the brethren, lest our boasting of you should be in vain in this behalf; that, as I said, ye may be ready: 4 Lest haply if they of Macedonia come with me, and find you unprepared, we (that we say not, ye) should be ashamed in this same confident boasting.

2 Corinthians 9:1-5 5 Therefore I thought it necessary to exhort the brethren, that they would go before unto you, and make up beforehand your bounty, whereof ye had notice before, that the same might be ready, as a matter of bounty, and not as of covetousness.

Honor Your Commitment To Give (like you said you would)

Because We Love Money, We Disobey Gods Word When It Comes To Giving Financially To The Lords Work

Malachi 3:8-12 8 Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings. 9 Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this whole nation. Read With Me

Malachi 3:8-12 10 Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.

Malachi 3:8-12 11 And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the LORD of hosts. 12 And all nations shall call you blessed: for ye shall be a delightsome land, saith the LORD of hosts.

If When We Read These Verses, One Of The First Things You Thought Was:Thats The Old Testament, Or That Was The Law, Or That Was For Israel Good Chance You Dont Give Financially To Gods Work!

If When We Read These Verses, One Of The First Things You Thought Was:Thats The Old Testament, Or That Was The Law, Or That Was For Israel Or, You Give Very Little To Gods Work!

If When We Read These Verses, One Of The First Things You Thought Was:Thats The Old Testament, Or That Was The Law, Or That Was For Israel Or, You Love Money More Than You Love Jesus Christ!

If When We Read These Verses, One Of The First Things You Thought Was:Thats The Old Testament, Or That Was The Law, Or That Was For Israel Or, You Dont Believe You Can Give To Gods Work & Meet Your Financial Obligations Too!

If That Sounds Like YOU, Then satan Is Pleased And God Is Not!

I Say This To Help You!Not Because I Want Your Money!

Quite Frankly, Im Fine And Fellowship Church Is Doing Great!

John 10:10a The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. This Is Satans Plan!

This Is Satans Plan!he Wants You CONFUSED!

This Is Satans Plan!he Wants You COCKY!

This Is Satans Plan!he Wants You CHEAP!

This Is Satans Plan!he Wants You CURSED!

The More You Love Money, The Less You Give To Gods Work!

Luke 6:38 Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again. Listen To Jesus

Luke 16:9-14 9 And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends of the mammon ($) of unrighteousness; that, when ye fail, they may receive you into everlasting habitations. 10 He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much.

Luke 16:9-14 11 If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon ($), who will commit to your trust the true riches? 12 And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another man's, who shall give you that which is your own?

Luke 16:9-14 13 No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon ($). 14 And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him.

Malachi 3:9 Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this whole nation. satan Knows What God Has Said!

satan Is Cursed!he Wants You And Me To Be Cursed Too!

God Says: Dont Rob Me! Give Me Your Tithe!

Malachi 3:10-12 10 Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.

Malachi 3:10-12 11 And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the LORD of hosts. 12 And all nations shall call you blessed: for ye shall be a delightsome land, saith the LORD of hosts.

What Does God Say?I Will Bless You!I Will Rebuke satan For YouYou Will Have A Mighty Testimony

The Curse Is The OppositeI Will NOT Bless You!I Will NOT Rebuke satan For YouYou Will NOT Have A Powerful Testimony

Giving Is Not Something We Do, It Is Something We Are!YOURE A GIVER OR YOURE NOT! (thank God, its something you can be)

Giving Is A Way Of Life When You Understand The Amazing Grace Of God!

We Dont Give To Get, But Gods Blessing Is One Of The Fringe Benefits!

2 Corinthians 9:6 But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully. GODS PRINCIPLE ON GIVINGDont Give Sparingly

Romans 8:32 He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things? GODS PRINCIPLE ON GIVINGDont Give Sparingly

GODS PRINCIPLE ON GIVINGGive Bountifully Generously

2 Corinthians 9:7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. GODS PRINCIPLE ON GIVINGRemember Motive Matters!

THREE TYPES OF GIVERS! SAD GIVER: Gives Grudgingly MAD GIVER: Gives Of Necessity GLAD GIVER: Gives Cheerfully (Hilarious)

God Can Bless A Gift Given Out Of DUTY, But God Will Not Bless The Giver Unless His Heart Is Right!

WHAT DOES GOD GET WHEN WE GIVE?

2 Corinthians 9:13-15 13 Whiles by the experiment of this ministration they glorify God for your professed subjection unto the gospel of Christ, and for your liberal distribution unto them, and unto all men; 14 And by their prayer for you, which long after you for the exceeding grace of God in you. 15 Thanks be unto God for his unspeakable gift.

GLORY & PRAISE!

2 Corinthians 8:9 For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.

Joshua 24:13-15 13 And I have given you a land for which ye did not labour, and cities which ye built not, and ye dwell in them; of the vineyards and oliveyards which ye planted not do ye eat. 14 Now therefore fear the LORD, and serve him in sincerity and in truth: and put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the flood, and in Egypt; and serve ye the LORD.

Joshua 24:13-15 15 And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.
