I ran across this message and had to share it with someone and since this group are the only one's that I know and believe are mature enough take this Word and weigh it against the Scriptures themselves, I have decided to share with you all first. I am going to look over these Scriptures and commit them to prayer and study myself but just from listening to the meat of what Gary Carpenter says, he sounds right on to me. May the Lord continue to bless us with His truth as we see past the doctrine of the Pharisees. www.truthforfree.com/?p=788#more-788(Just click on the "The Widows Mite" - by Gary Carpenter. You can listen from this page or download it to Window's Media Player)

I had not heard this understanding before, but it sure makes a lot of sense when you read the context of the surrounding verses. I definitely believe there is something to having enough faith in God to give, even in our want and knowing He will work it out. However, certainly widow's houses are being devoured as people strangle folks with this whole emphasis on "giving in order to get" message. I am going to have to listen to this again! Thanks for sharing.
