Tim Keller on 2 Corinthians 8:9 -- "Jesus gave up all his treasure in heaven, in order to make you his treasure -- for you are a treasured people (1 Peter 2:9-10). When you see him dying to make you his treasure, that will make him yours. Money will cease to be the currency of your significance and security, and you will want to bless others with what you have.
"To the degree that you grasp the gospel, money will have no dominion over you. Think on his costly grace until it changes you into a generous people."
-- Timothy Keller, "Counterfeit Gods" pp.67-68 (Dutton 2009)
