Jesus’ death on the cross was done out of God’s grace and love for us as a sacrifice in our place to take away our sins (1 John 4:10); but it also provides an example. The perfect standard for generous giving is the cross on which Jesus died. Not only to give us life, but also to show us how to live it.
The Bible repeatedly describes Jesus’ death as an act of self emptying love which Christians are plainly called to imitate, not only with their lives in general, but with the use of their money and possessions in particular. Let us use our gifts, talents and resources to honor our Lord Jesus Christ!
