Church Should Rely on Its Collection

The church doesn’t need to beg people for money. If the church would follow the Biblical pattern as taught in 1 Corinthians 16:1-4, each local church would rely on its own working members to give into the collection on the first day of the week. That’s right, the local church is not to depend upon visitors and non Christians to support the work. The members of the local church have an obligation to carry on the work and give fairly to the Lord, for he loves a cheerful giver (2 Cor. 9:7).

The church isn’t into money making projects like bingo, cake and dinner sells, rummage sales, etc. These things are the doctrine and commandments of men (Mark 7:7). Many say. “How can the church make it on one collection each week?” This is how. Each person give a fair amount to the church, then the congregation should use the money wisely by working within a budget. By doing this the church will be okay, and God will be pleased.
