View Profile History	A Million Dollars? Posted : 12 Mar, 2010 09:26 AM I think I would... Pay my tithe buy a home in Charlotte, NC (modest) I would give $60k to my pastor to fund his trips to India/Thailand and Cambodia. Just to take off any financial burden, he can come and go and win souls for the Lord. I dont feel called to be a missionary, but I would like to go at least once. Then I would invest the rest.

Posted : 12 Mar, 2010 10:50 AM dear folks, though the obvious answer to most would be to spend it on what you may need and give alot to charity.. or maybe give it all to charity... but im thinkin the LORD would want me to take that 1 million and make it profitable to have say 3 million or more to give to charity.. to have an ongoing amount to give,, instead of just spending out the 1 million on charity..and have nothing left to give past that point.. as im reminded of the parable of the talents.. ole cattle Parable of the Talents 14 "For the kingdom of heaven is like a man traveling to a far country, who called his own servants and delivered his goods to them. 15 And to one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one, to each according to his own ability; and immediately he went on a journey. 16 Then he who had received the five talents went and traded with them, and made another five talents. 17 And likewise he who had received two gained two more also. 18 But he who had received one went and dug in the ground, and hid his lord's money. 19 After a long time the lord of those servants came and settled accounts with them. 20 "So he who had received five talents came and brought five other talents, saying, Lord, you delivered to me five talents; look, I have gained five more talents besides them. 21 His lord said to him, Well done, good and faithful servant; you were faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord. 22 He also who had received two talents came and said, Lord, you delivered to me two talents; look, I have gained two more talents besides them. 23 His lord said to him, Well done, good and faithful servant; you have been faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord. 24 "Then he who had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew you to be a hard man, reaping where you have not sown, and gathering where you have not scattered seed. 25 And I was afraid, and went and hid your talent in the ground. Look, there you have what is yours. 26 "But his lord answered and said to him, You wicked and lazy servant, you knew that I reap where I have not sown, and gather where I have not scattered seed. 27 So you ought to have deposited my money with the bankers, and at my coming I would have received back my own with interest. 28 So take the talent from him, and give it to him who has ten talents. 29 For to everyone who has, more will be given, and he will have abundance; but from him who does not have, even what he has will be taken away. 30 And cast the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Post Reply
