It lists fourteen reasons: 1) To show love for God, 2) To access financial provision, 3) To create financial flow for future generations, 4) To honor God, 5) To show trust in God over fear and greed, 6) To acknowledge that wealth comes from God, 7) To prove obedience to God's word, 8) To be remembered by God forever, 9) As an act of worship, 10) To show gratitude to God. The document supports each reason with several Bible verses.
