More Fun Stuff...

From the 1950's...bulletin fillers from a book titled Better Church Finance:

  • It is never safe to trust God's business to the man who neglects his own.
  • When a man is asked to become a tither, he is asked to establish as a life principle the habit of putting God first.
  • There are no recored of failure among tithing churches.  The examples are legion.  (Though everything I read indicates there has never been a tithing church...)
  • If a church has a lot of "flinty givers," it may take a lot of knocks to get the "fire."
  • Wonder what the Lord thinks when a woman with a $20 hat gives five cents to his glory.
  • Some people try to get something for nothing and then kick about the quality.
  • Our credit in heaven is not determined by what we give but by what we have left.
  • There is enough of the Lord's money in the purses of Christians on Sunday morning to do all the work God expects them to do--if He could get his own money back!
  • Our money will testify concerning us in the Judgment.  Whether our checkbook is to be summoned by the defense of the prosecution depends upon us.  We are the ones who make His Testimony for Him.  he will only say what our stewardship tells Him to say.
