Why is the Faith Promise Plan A Superior
Plan of Giving?
Because it is based upon faith
God says: "For we walk by faith, not by sight." 2
Corinthians 5:7
Because it is based upon faith
God is glorified when His power and love are
demonstrated. Thus as He supplies the means for giving, He
is glorified. The more we depend on God, the more He is
glorified. 2 Corinthians 9:13
Because the potential is greater
Obviously, one can give more if there is more to give. And God
supplies the gift from His limitless resources. 2
Corinthians 9:8; Philippians 4:19
Because it brings more people into the giving picture
Often, only one member of the family does the giving. But in
the Faith Promise Plan, children and young people are encouraged to make
a Faith Promise Offering in consultation with their parents.
However, parents are discouraged from paying their children's Faith
Promise Offering. It is important that the children learn to trust
the Lord. We teach them to pray, to attend church, and to study
the Bible. Why not teach them both the importance and blessing of
giving!
Testimonies abound from children and young people who have
experienced God's supply for their Faith Promise Offerings.
Because there is invariably more money
There is more money to carry on God's work. There is
usually a substantial increase in missionary support over the percentage
method. In addition, there is also more general fund giving, as
many realize the importance of giving both tithes and offerings.
Because it brings more blessings to the giver
Since the Faith Promise Offering encourages generously on the part of
the giver, the result will be greater blessings on the givers.
2 Corinthians 9:6
