Contributions PagesOn these pages Seeking Real Truth offers explanations of the types of contributions we need in order to operate this ministry. We believe that all who make contributions made to this ministry will be blessed by our Father in heaven. We have several ways for you to support this ministry. You may choose one of the options in the blue menu to the left, or you may support us by making purchases from our sponsors through the links provided on our site. We have chosen our sponsors very carefully to meet certain criteria: They must be reliable, they must provide quality service and/or products, and they must have products or services that a Christian would be interested in. We wish to stress this point: Do not contribute to this ministry at the expense of limiting your contributions to your church. If you decide to contribute to this ministry, your contribution should be considered an extra gift over and above your normal tithes and offerings to your local church. This ministry is not a church organization, it is a lay-ministry. This means that it is run entirely by lay people, not pastors or ministers who have been thoroughly trained in theology. We believe we are fully qualified and commissioned by the Lord to do the work of this ministry as lay-persons (see: Mark 16:15, Psalm 78:4, Joel 1:3, 1 Peter 3:15, Jeremiah 23:28, Luke 24:46-47, 2 Corinthians 5:9, Acts 1:8). Do not contribute to this ministry out of compulsion, but rather give with joy in your heart. We do not want contributions that are percieved as being coerced out of you, but we only want contributions that are given joyfully.
At this time (as of 10-1-2004) your contributions are not tax deductible. We are making plans to formalize this ministry so as to allow you to take tax deductions on the contributions you make. We will provide notification on this page when that task has been accomplished. To view the specific types of contributions and our current immediate needs, click the blue/crimson buttons on the left. We thank you for prayerfully considering this ministry in your giving. If you find you are unable to contribute directly to Seeking Real Truth Ministries, you may still support us by visiting our advertisers and buying your books, gifts, or travel from them by clicking through to them from our site. |
