Part 1: Whose Money is it Anyway?—by Ivor Botha and Bridget Mokoteli
April 17, 2023
Sermon summary:
Ivor: Whose money is It Anyway? God is in control, and everything belongs to him.
Matthew 25:14-21 So what are we doing with the resources he blessed us with?
Ecclesiastes 2:26 To the person who pleases him, God gives more.
Bridget: Tithing is an expression of faith. God provides us with everything we need. The only time he asks us to test him is in our giving, and he promises to open the floodgates if we do. It's not the amount that matters, but the heart behind it.

The perfect Father chooses mercy over judgment and connection over correction, and he celebrates repentance, calling us to reflect His love and grace.
Submission begins with surrender to God. Following Jesus' example, we lay down self-will, serve others in love, and trust his direction daily.
Jesus was full of grace and truth. Wisdom knows when to comfort, when to correct, and how to speak with love, discernment, and humility.
