Frequently Asked Questions
Why should we give?
Trusting God and putting Him first in your finances declares a blessing over your life. God tells us to test him in bringing the whole tithe and see if He will not “throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store it” (Malachi 3:10).
Through your giving at Celebration Church you invest back into the spiritual growth of your family, but you also enable the church to reach others and increase their awareness of Jesus and the Gospel of the Kingdom.
How can I give?

Why do we give?
Geven is een demonstratie van onze liefde van God en onze loyaliteit naar Gods familie, de lokale kerk. Alles wat we bezitten, hebben we ontvangen van God. We geven hem de eerste tien procent (de eerstelingen of de tienden) van ons inkomen, vanwege Maleachi 3:10 dat ons laat zien dat het in het voorraadhuis, de lokale kerk, wat de plek is waar onze families geestelijke voeding ontvangen en waar we toegerust worden voor onze bediening in de wereld om ons heen.
De andere 90% geeft God ons om goede rentmeesters over te zijn. Van dat geld betalen we onze rekening, sparen we voor later en zijn we vrijgevig wanneer de Heer ons hart beweegt.
Wanneer we zo met onze financiën omgaan, laat Maleachi ons zien dat we aan de hand daarvan gezegend worden. Deze zegeningen zien er anders uit voor een ieder en ookal is Gods zegen niet het motief voor onze tienden, het herinnert ons aan Gods goedheid voor ons. 90% met Gods zegen zal altijd verdergaan dan 100% zonder Gods zegen.
In Maleachi nodigt God ons uit om hem te testen op het gebied van tienden. Dus waarom neem je niet een stap in geloof en commiteer je je eraan om je tienden terug te geven? Zie wat God gaat doen in je leven en deel je getuigenis met ons!
