LAW & DISORDER

march 7 - 28

Jesus “Outlaw” Christ. He was called a sabbath-breaker, a blasphemer, a deceiver & demon possessed. Wherever Jesus went, he kept having run-ins with the “law”.  The stories brought to light in John 7-12 bring this into clear focus. It’s as if John is inviting his readers into the courtroom to hear testimonial evidence from all kinds of observers - the Pharisees, the chief priests, the disciples, those healed by His touch & those who witnessed it all with their own eyes. Examine the evidence for yourself in this fascinating series, then answer this question:
What’s your verdict?

    Making a Difference for the Kingdom of God

    At UBC our tithes support our ongoing ministries through the operating budget. Beyond that, our offerings provide for our future building project, our missions efforts, and designated projects. Through our giving in these ways lives are changed, ministries are provided and the gospel is shared. What a privilege to be a part!

    Offering the Sacrifices of Love

    Beyond the tithe God’s Word shows people (including Jesus) making profound gifts of costly sacrifice. We refer to these as offerings. (Mark 10:45, John 12:3, Luke 21:3-4, 22:42-44, Acts 4:34-35, 1 Chronicles 29:2-5, 2 Corinthians 8-9).

    Growing in the Grace of Giving

    When I give I am behaving more like God (John 3:16, James 1:5)
    When I give I am following Jesus’ example (Matthew 10:8, Mark 10:45)
    When I give I am showing faithful stewardship (1 Corinthians 4:2)
    When I give I am drawing closer to God from the heart (Matthew 6:21)
    When I give I am breaking the power of materialism in my life (1 Timothy 6:17-19)
    When I give I am investing securely in eternity (Matthew 6:20, Luke 16:9-11)
    When I give I will receive God’s blessing in return (Proverbs 3:9-10, Luke 6:38)

    “Well done, good and faithful servant! You’ve been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your Master’s happiness.” Matthew 25:21

    Joining Jesus in Tithing

    A tithe is simply a tenth, ie. a dime of every dollar, ten of every hundred, and so on.
    Although Jesus never gave his disciples a “Thou shalt tithe” command, we know Jesus taught more about money than He did about Heaven or Hell. One of every six verses of the recorded teachings of Jesus is about money. One of every three of Jesus’ parables speaks about the right use or wrong use of money.
