Why we give.
The purpose of Battleground Community Church is to glorify God through Christ-exalting worship as we grow together in biblical community while going with the gospel to all people(s).
Everything we do at BCC stems from our purpose. When you give, you are giving directly to support and be a part of this purpose. We expect members at Battleground Community to worship, study, serve, give and live unto the Lord. In 2 Corinthians 9:7, Paul writes that “each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.” This means that believers are to give joyfully and decidedly in their tithes and offerings to the local church.
"Bring the full tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. And thereby put me to the test, says the Lord of hosts, if I will not open the windows of heaven for you and pour down for you a blessing until there is no more need."
- Malachi 3:10
"Honor the Lord with your wealth and with the firstfruits of all your produce;"
- Proverbs 3:9
"Now the full number of those who believed were of one heart and soul, and no one said that any of the things that belonged to him was his own, but they had everything in common. And with great power the apostles were giving their testimony to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and great grace was upon them all. There was not a needy person among them, for as many as were owners of lands or houses sold them and brought the proceeds of what was sold."
- Acts 4:32-34
"For I do not mean that others should be eased and you burdened, but that as a matter of fairness your abundance at the present time should supply their need, so that their abundance may supply your need, that there may be fairness.As it is written, “Whoever gathered much had nothing left over, and whoever gathered little had no lack.”
- 2 Corinthians 8:13-15
"The point is this: whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that having all sufficiency in all things at all times, you may abound in every good work. As it is written, “He has distributed freely, he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures forever.”
- 2 Corinthians 9:6-9
