Quotes on giving by Randy Alcorn

Here are 4 quotes by Randy Alcorn from his book The Treasure Principle:

"God prospers us NOT to raise our standard of living but to raise our standard of giving."

"When people tell me they can't afford to tithe, I ask them, 'If your income was reduced by 10% would you die?'"

"You can't take it with you but you can send it on ahead."

(My favorite) "The greatest deterrent to giving is the illusion that earth is our home"

As the song says, "The things of earth will grow strangely dim, in the light of His glory and grace."

The Mission

2 Tim 4:1-4
I solemnly charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by His appearing and His kingdom: preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort, with great patience and instruction. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires, and will turn away their ears from the truth and will turn aside to myths.
