To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The setting apart of a portion of our substance from week to week has the advantage of periodical contributions at short intervals, which, in the case of most people, is more easily done than when a large sum is deducted at once from their income. And this method is, besides, more productive. A monthly contribution yields HOW AND WHEN TO GIVE. 89 a larger revenue than an annual or half-yearly subscription, and a weekly storing would be more productive still. ' ' Moreover, the weekly setting apa...rt of a portion of income for sacred and benevolent purposes is fitted to bring up very frequently the question, whether we are giving as the Lord has prospered us ? What we thus store is not a stereotyped sum. From week to week we are called to consider what we ought to add to the Lord's treasury, and this consideration will lead to enlarged liberality. And especially this will be the result if we fully adopt the method commended to the Corinthians ; if we lay by in store on the first day of the week ; if we make Sabbath work of it ; if it is a sacred religious service an act of worship.
