Generosidade
A generosidade é marca do caráter de Deus e vocação do cristão. Deus ama ao que dá com alegria. Quem semeia generosamente, generosamente colherá.
Dar com alegria
Deus ama ao que dá com alegria. Cada um contribua segundo propôs no coração — não com tristeza ou por necessidade.
Each one should give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or from compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.
Now the point is this: the one who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and the one who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. Each one should give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or from compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to cause all grace to abound to you, so that in everything at all times, because you have enough of everything, you may overflow in every good work. Just as it is written,
"He scattered widely, he gave to the poor;
his righteousness remains forever."
Now the one who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will provide and multiply your seed, and will cause the harvest of your righteousness to grow, being made rich in every way for all generosity, which is producing through us thanksgiving to God, because the service of this ministry is not only supplying the needs of the saints, but also is overflowing through many expressions of thanksgiving to God.

For if the eagerness is present according to what one has, it is acceptable not according to what one does not have.
Partilhar e abençoar
Quem dá aos pobres empresta ao Senhor. A generosidade abre portas de bênção sobre quem dá e sobre quem recebe.
A person of blessing will be enriched,
and he who gives water also will be refreshed.
There is one who gives yet grows richer,
but he who withholds what is right only finds need.
A person of blessing will be enriched,
and he who gives water also will be refreshed.
Honor Yahweh from your substance,
and from the firstfruits of all that will come to you,
and your barns shall be full of plenty,
and your vats shall burst with new wine.
Do not withhold good from its owner
when it is in the power of your hand to do.
He who closes his ear from the cry of the poor,
he also will cry out and not be heard.
Bring the whole tithe to the storehouse, so that there will be food in my house, and test me please in this," says Yahweh of hosts, "if I will not open for you the windows of heaven, and pour forth for you an overflowing blessing.
For the poor will not cease to be among you in the land; therefore I am commanding you, saying, ‘You shall willingly open your hand to your brother, to your needy and to your poor that are in your land.’
O ensino de Jesus
Dai e dar-se-vos-á. A quem te pedir, dá. O que fizestes a um destes mais pequeninos, a mim o fizestes.
Give, and it will be given to you, a good measure—pressed down, shaken, overflowing—they will pour out into your lap. For with the measure by which you measure out, it will be measured out to you in return."
Give, and it will be given to you, a good measure—pressed down, shaken, overflowing—they will pour out into your lap. For with the measure by which you measure out, it will be measured out to you in return."
Give to everyone who asks you, and from the one who takes away your things, do not ask for them back.
Therefore if you, although you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the Father from heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him?"
Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you.
Therefore whenever you practice charitable giving, do not sound a trumpet in front of you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, in order that they may be praised by people. Truly I say to you, they have received their reward in full! But you, when you practice charitable giving, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, in order that your charitable giving may be in secret, and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.
And the king will answer and say to them, ‘Truly I say to you, in as much as you did it to one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did it to me.’
Generosidade de Deus
Se Deus dá sabedoria generosamente a quem pede, quanto mais nos dará Ele forças e suprimento em toda necessidade?
Now if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask for it from God, who gives to all without reservation and not reproaching, and it will be given to him.
If a brother or a sister is poorly clothed and lacking food for the day, and one of you should say to them, "Go in peace, keep warm and eat well," but does not give them what is necessary for the body, what is the benefit? Thus also faith, if it does not have works, is dead by itself.
He gives power to the weary,
and he increases power for the powerless.
It goes well for a man who is gracious and lends,
who conducts his business properly.
