2 Corinthians 8:5

Jesus
Raushet og gavmildhetTjeneste

3 For I testify that they gave according to their ability and even beyond it. Of their own accord,

4 they earnestly pleaded with us for the privilege of sharing in this service to the saints.

And not only did they do as we expected, but they gave themselves first to the Lord and then to us, because it was the will of God.

6 So we urged Titus to help complete your act of grace, just as he had started it.

7 But just as you excel in everything—in faith, in speech, in knowledge, in complete earnestness, and in the love we inspired in you —see that you also excel in this grace of giving.
