"A Welcome To Eternal Mansions," in a series of messages "Living Generously"




See More from Greg Bye: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL62E3004A46EA59CB 

IDENTITY IN CHRIST
Romans 6:11 "So consider yourselves dead to sin, but alive to God in Jesus Christ."
WHO AM I IN CHRIST? I AM DEAD TO SIN'S POWER, AND ALIVE IN JESUS CHRIST.
Read Luke 16:1-15
TODAY'S MESSAGE: "A Welcome to Eternal Mansions"
Think about it. The money we have is not our own. All we have belongs to God. We are managers of the resources and wealth and time He's given us--unworthy managers to be sure. We all offend God and use resources poorly at times, sometimes cheating Him. Yet, God is saying to us unworthy managers of His, be generous! Live generously with your money! Give generously of yourself! According to Jesus our generosity on earth has eternal value.

Are you a stingy or generous person?

What is preventing you from living in the freedom of generosity?

Do you know any religious hypocrites? How do you treat them (generously)?
