A Collection Upon Every First Day
1 Corinthians 16:1-2 ESV (1) Now concerning the collection for the
saints: as I directed the churches of Galatia, so you also are to do. (2)
On the first day of every week, each of you is to put something aside
and store it up, as he may prosper, so that there will be no collecting
when I come.

       Kata – has a distributive force, every first day.
       (Vincent’s Word Study)
A Collection Upon Every First Day
              Our Collection on Sunday is for:
1. Pay for Preacher; 1 Cor. 9:14; Gal. 6:6; 1 Tim. 5:17-18 (elder/preacher)
2. Support for Missionaries; 2 Cor. 11:9
3. Christians in need; 1 Cor. 16:1,2; Acts 11:27-30; 4:34;1 Tim. 5:9,10
4. All in need; Gal. 6:10; James 1:27
5. Things necessary for congregation to assemble together, Heb. 10:25
6. Things necessary to fulfill evangelism or teaching (Matthew 28:18-
   20; 2 Tim. 2:2)
7. Things necessary to fulfill edification of church (1 Cor. 14:26)
8. Things needed for worship, i.e. items for Lord’s supper, aids to help
   in worship like song books, etc.
Each of You, Lay Something Aside
1 Corinthians 16:1-2 ESV (1) Now
concerning the collection for the saints:
as I directed the churches of Galatia, so
you also are to do. (2) On the first day
of every week, each of you is to put
something aside and store it up, as he
may prosper, so that there will be no
collecting when I come.
Each of You, Lay Something Aside
    We Must First Give Ourselves
2 Corinthians 8:3-5 NKJV (3) For I bear
witness that according to their
ability, yes, and beyond their ability, they
were freely willing, (4) imploring us with
much urgency that we would receive the
gift and the fellowship of the ministering
to the saints. (5) And not only as we had
hoped, but they first gave themselves to
the Lord, and then to us by the will of
God.
Each of You, Lay Something Aside
    We Must First Give Ourselves
Galatians 5:24 NKJV And those who are
Christ's have crucified the flesh with its
passions and desires.

Mark 10:21-22 NKJV Then Jesus, looking at him, loved him, and
said to him, "One thing you lack: Go your way, sell whatever you
have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and
come, take up the cross, and follow Me." (22) But he was sad at this
word, and went away sorrowful, for he had great possessions.
Each of You, Lay Something Aside
    We Must First Give Ourselves


Mark 10:28-31 NKJV Then Peter began to say to Him, "See, we have
left all and followed You." (29) So Jesus answered and
said, "Assuredly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or
brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or lands, for
My sake and the gospel's, (30) who shall not receive a hundredfold
now in this time—houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and
children and lands, with persecutions—and in the age to come, eternal
life. (31) But many who are first will be last, and the last first.”

1 Corinthians 16:1-2 ESV (1) Now
concerning the collection for the saints:
as I directed the churches of Galatia, so
you also are to do. (2) On the first day
of every week, each of you is to put
something aside and store it up, as he
may prosper, so that there will be no
collecting when I come.

                    10 Principles Concerning Our Giving
1. According to What We Have

2 Cor. 8:12 NKJV For if there is first a willing mind, it is accepted
according to what one has, and not according to what he does not have.
Acts 11:29 NKJV Then the disciples, each according to his
ability, determined to send relief to the brethren dwelling in Judea.

2. Should be Equality in our Giving.

2 Corinthians 8:13-14 NKJV (13) For I do not mean that others should
be eased and you burdened; (14) but by an equality, that now at this
time your abundance may supply their lack, that their abundance also
may supply your lack—that there may be equality.

the sight of the Lord, but also in the sight of men.

4. Should show the Proof of our Love
2 Corinthians 8:24 NKJV (24) Therefore show to them, and before the
churches the proof of your love and of our boasting on your behalf.
2 Cor. 8:7-9 NKJV But as you abound in everything—in faith, in speech, in
knowledge, in all diligence, and in your love for us—see that you abound
in this grace also. (8) I speak not by commandment, but I am testing the
sincerity of your love by the diligence of others. (9) For you know the
grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sakes
He became poor, that you through His poverty might become rich.

written: "HE HAS DISPERSED ABROAD, HE HAS GIVEN TO THE
POOR; HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS ENDURES FOREVER.”

  • 2. Storing Up As We Prosper 1 Corinthians 16:1-2 1 Corinthians 16:1-2 NKJV (1) Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given orders to the churches of Galatia, so you must do also: (2) On the first day of the week let each one of you lay something aside, storing up as he may prosper, that there be no collections when I come. Tallapoosa church of Christ Sunday Morning, August 26, 2012
  • 3. A Collection Upon Every First Day 1 Corinthians 16:1-2 ESV (1) Now concerning the collection for the saints: as I directed the churches of Galatia, so you also are to do. (2) On the first day of every week, each of you is to put something aside and store it up, as he may prosper, so that there will be no collecting when I come. Kata – has a distributive force, every first day. (Vincent’s Word Study)
  • 4. A Collection Upon Every First Day Our Collection on Sunday is for: 1. Pay for Preacher; 1 Cor. 9:14; Gal. 6:6; 1 Tim. 5:17-18 (elder/preacher) 2. Support for Missionaries; 2 Cor. 11:9 3.

  • 5. Each of You, Lay Something Aside 1 Corinthians 16:1-2 ESV (1) Now concerning the collection for the saints: as I directed the churches of Galatia, so you also are to do. (2) On the first day of every week, each of you is to put something aside and store it up, as he may prosper, so that there will be no collecting when I come.
  • 6. Each of You, Lay Something Aside We Must First Give Ourselves 2 Corinthians 8:3-5 NKJV (3) For I bear witness that according to their ability, yes, and beyond their ability, they were freely willing, (4) imploring us with much urgency that we would receive the gift and the fellowship of the ministering to the saints. (5) And not only as we had hoped, but they first gave themselves to the Lord, and then to us by the will of God.
  • 7. Each of You, Lay Something Aside We Must First Give Ourselves Galatians 5:24 NKJV And those who are Christ's have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. Mark 10:21-22 NKJV Then Jesus, looking at him, loved him, and said to him, "One thing you lack: Go your way, sell whatever you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, take up the cross, and follow Me." (22) But he was sad at this word, and went away sorrowful, for he had great possessions.
  • 8. Each of You, Lay Something Aside We Must First Give Ourselves Mark 10:28-31 NKJV Then Peter began to say to Him, "See, we have left all and followed You." (29) So Jesus answered and said, "Assuredly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or lands, for My sake and the gospel's, (30) who shall not receive a hundredfold now in this time—houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions—and in the age to come, eternal life. (31) But many who are first will be last, and the last first.”
  • 9. Storing Up As He May Prosper 1 Corinthians 16:1-2 ESV (1) Now concerning the collection for the saints: as I directed the churches of Galatia, so you also are to do. (2) On the first day of every week, each of you is to put something aside and store it up, as he may prosper, so that there will be no collecting when I come.
  • 10. Storing Up As He May Prosper 10 Principles Concerning Our Giving 1. According to What We Have 2 Cor. 8:12 NKJV For if there is first a willing mind, it is accepted according to what one has, and not according to what he does not have. Acts 11:29 NKJV Then the disciples, each according to his ability, determined to send relief to the brethren dwelling in Judea.
  • 11. Storing Up As He May Prosper 10 Principles Concerning Our Giving 2. Should be Equality in our Giving. 2 Corinthians 8:13-14 NKJV (13) For I do not mean that others should be eased and you burdened; (14) but by an equality, that now at this time your abundance may supply their lack, that their abundance also may supply your lack—that there may be equality.
  • 12. Storing Up As He May Prosper 10 Principles Concerning Our Giving 3. Our collective Giving must be open for all to See 2 Corinthians 8:21 NKJV (21) providing honorable things, not only in the sight of the Lord, but also in the sight of men.
  • 13. Storing Up As He May Prosper 10 Principles Concerning Our Giving 4. Should show the Proof of our Love 2 Corinthians 8:24 NKJV (24) Therefore show to them, and before the churches the proof of your love and of our boasting on your behalf. 2 Cor. 8:7-9 NKJV But as you abound in everything—in faith, in speech, in knowledge, in all diligence, and in your love for us—see that you abound in this grace also. (8) I speak not by commandment, but I am testing the sincerity of your love by the diligence of others. (9) For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through His poverty might become rich.
  • 14. Storing Up As He May Prosper 10 Principles Concerning Our Giving 4. Should show the Proof of our Love 1 Corinthians 16:13-14 NKJV (13) Watch, stand fast in the faith, be brave, be strong. (14) Let all that you do be done with love.
  • 15. Storing Up As He May Prosper 10 Principles Concerning Our Giving 5. A Matter of Generosity 2 Corinthians 9:5 NKJV Therefore I thought it necessary to exhort the brethren to go to you ahead of time, and prepare your generous gift beforehand, which you had previously promised, that it may be ready as a matter of generosity and not as a grudging obligation.
  • 16. Storing Up As He May Prosper 10 Principles Concerning Our Giving 6. We Reap What We Sow 2 Cor. 9:6 NKJV But this I say: He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.
  • 17. Storing Up As He May Prosper 10 Principles Concerning Our Giving 7. Give as We Have Purposed in our Hearts 2 Corinthians 9:7 NKJV So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver. Purposes – perfect tense
  • 18. Storing Up As He May Prosper 10 Principles Concerning Our Giving 8. God Loves a Cheerful Giver 2 Corinthians 9:7 NKJV So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver.
  • 19. Storing Up As He May Prosper 10 Principles Concerning Our Giving 8. God Loves a Cheerful Giver 2 Corinthians 9:7 NKJV So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver. Cheerful Hilaros – (English word hilarious) cheerful or joyous
  • 20. Storing Up As He May Prosper 10 Principles Concerning Our Giving 9. Must be Liberal Givers 2 Corinthians 9:11 NKJV (11) while you are enriched in everything for all liberality, which causes thanksgiving through us to God. 2 Corinthians 8:2 NKJV that in a great trial of affliction the abundance of their joy and their deep poverty abounded in the riches of their liberality.
  • 21. Storing Up As He May Prosper 10 Principles Concerning Our Giving 10. We Cannot Out Give God 2 Cor. 9:15 NKJV (15) Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift! 2 Corinthians 9:8-9 NKJV (8) And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may have an abundance for every good work. (9) As it is written: "HE HAS DISPERSED ABROAD, HE HAS GIVEN TO THE POOR; HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS ENDURES FOREVER.”
