The Purpose of Prosperity...


  There are three levels of how to live with things:
(1) you can steal to get;
 (2) or you can work to get;
 (3) or you can work to get in order to give.

Too many professing Christians live on level two. Almost all the forces of our culture urge them to live on level two. But the Bible pushes us relentlessly to level three.
 “God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that having all sufficiency in all things at all times, you may abound in every good work” (2 Corinthians 9:8).

John Piper
