Deuteronomy 15:10 NIV
Give generously to them* and do so without a grudging heart; then because of this the Lord your God will bless you in all your work and in everything you put your hand to.

*the context here is "your fellow Israelites in need," but I think we can safely assume it applies to anyone in need.
 
John 14:1-3 KJV
Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. [2] In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. [3] And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
 
My BYC friends, I had a thought today I wanted to share with you. Imagine, if you will, a person who lives in a restricted country. Someone for whom it is a crime punishable by death to own a Bible, or to speak to anyone about Christ. How would such a person learn the good news of salvation? How would they learn about a personal God, a God who loves them and wants to have a personal relationship with them? How would they learn about God who loved them so much that He made Himself human, lived among us as an ordinary man, took our sins upon Himself and died in our place so that we might live forever with Him? Who would tell them that this same Man-God is coming back some day, some day soon, to take us to live with Him in a Paradise so magnificent that we can't even imagine it? And that all we have to do to receive this wonderful gift of forgiveness and eternal life is to believe and ask for it. This thread right here might be the only safe place a person like this might be able to come to learn this wonderful news! Please, friends, help me tell this good news. Share your story here. Tell how you came to know Jesus in your life and what He means to you. Why did you choose to follow Him? What has He done for you? How did you come to accept His marvelous grace? Share a Scripture and tell what it means to you.

Revelation 12:11 KJV
And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.
