Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the practice of giving within various systems of faith, exploring the methods, motivations, and historical evolution of financial support in religious communities. The author begins by analyzing the financial group within the apostolic college, highlighting the distinct contributions of Judas, Matthew, and Simon, and exploring the parallels between their roles and the financial support of contemporary religious organizations. The book then examines the Hebrew, Mohammedan, and Mormon systems of tithing and almsgiving, discussing their historical origins, underlying principles, and impact on the prosperity and outreach of these faiths. Through a comparative analysis, the book provides a nuanced understanding of the role of money in religious practice, shedding light on the motivations of givers, the uses of funds, and the impact of giving on both individuals and communities. Ultimately, the book emphasizes the importance of a personal and spiritual connection to giving, arguing that a deeper understanding of the biblical principles of generosity can lead to a more meaningful and transformative relationship with God and others.
