Grace and gospel are inseparable truths informing Paul’s instruction for the Corinthian church to financially assist the suffering church in Jerusalem. Their gospel-induced giving will equip the church in Jerusalem to persevere in her gospel ministry. Our text informs us that gospel giving:

1. declares belief in the gospel (vv. 8–9)

2. demands perseverance in the gospel (vv. 10–12)

3. demonstrates partnership in the gospel (vv. 13–15)
