Bible Study Scripture:

-Joel 1:14 – Announce a time of fasting; call the people together for a solemn meeting. Bring the leaders and all the people of the land into the Temple of the Lord your God, and cry out to their trust.
-Isaiah 58:6 – No, this is the kind of fasting I want; free those who are wrongly imprisoned; lighten the burden of those who work for you. Let the oppressed go free, and remove the chains that bind people.
-Matthew 6:16 – And when you fast, don’t make it obvious, as the hypocrites do, for they try to look miserable and disheveled so people will admire them for their fasting. I tell you the truth that is the only reward they will ever get.
-I Corinthians 9:27 – I discipline my body like an athlete, training it to do what it should. Otherwise, I fear that after preaching to others I myself might be disqualified.

Bible Study Topic: Giving
Bible Study Scripture: (NLT)1 Timothy 6:17-19; James 2:14-17; James 4:13-15; 1 Peter 4:11
17Teach those who are rich in this world not to be proud and not to trust in their money, which is so unreliable. Their trust should be in God, who richly gives us all we need for our enjoyment.18Tell them to use their money to do good. They should be rich in good works and generous to those in need, always being ready to share with others.19By doing this they will be storing up their treasure as a good foundation for the future so that they may experience true life.
James 2:14-17(NLT) Faith without Good Deeds Is Dead
14What good is it, dear brothers and sisters, if you say you have faith but don’t show it by your actions? Can that kind of faith save anyone?15Suppose you see a brother or sister who has no food or clothing,16and you say, “Good-bye and have a good day; stay warm and eat well”—but then you don’t give that person any food or clothing. What good does that do?17So you see, faith by itself isn’t enough. Unless it produces good deeds, it is dead and useless.
James 4:13-15(NLT)Warning about Self-Confidence
13Look here, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we are going to a certain town and will stay there a year. We will do business there and make a profit.”14How do you know what your life will be like tomorrow? Your life is like the morning fog—it’s here a little while, then it’s gone.15What you ought to say is, “If the Lord wants us to, we will live and do this or that.”
1 Peter 4:11(NLT)
11Do you have the gift of speaking? Then speak as though God himself were speaking through you. Do you have the gift of helping others? Do it with all the strength and energy that God supplies. Then everything you do will bring glory to God through Jesus Christ. All glory and power to him forever and ever! Amen.

11And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.
12And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
13And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.
14And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
15And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
