*
The point is this :
he who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly ,
and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully .
*
Each one must do as he has made up his mind ,
not reluctantly or under compulsion ,
for God loves a cheerful giver .
*
And God is able to provide you with every blessing in abundance ,
so that you may always have enough of everything and may provide in abundance for every good work .
*
As it is written , "
He scatters abroad ,
he gives to the poor ;
his righteousness endures for ever ."
*
He who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your resources and increase the harvest of your righteousness .
*
You will be enriched in every way for great generosity ,
which through us will produce thanksgiving to God ;
*
for the rendering of this service not only supplies the wants of the saints but also overflows in many thanksgivings to God .
*
Under the test of this service ,
you will glorify God by your obedience in acknowledging the gospel of Christ ,
and by the generosity of your contribution for them and for all others ;
*
while they long for you and pray for you ,
because of the surpassing grace of God in you .
