The True Standard of Christian Giving

The editor of the Sunday School Times for April 23 makes these sensible and pertinent remarks with reference to the true and right standard of Christian giving:—
“When the Lord's work is in need of money, is it better to give outright and freely, or to be hired or entertained into a form of giving which is really not giving at all? The first way seems to be the only kind of giving recognized and commended in the Bible, though there are many churches in Christendom to-day that seem to think the Bible standard is too high for them. But the Bible standard is the only safe standard for any church or individual; and the outright giving that the Bible calls for has been repeatedly urged in these columns as the only kind that is worthy of God or of God's children. Many agree with this position; some disagree.”
