In Acts 4:32-36 tells that Barnabas sold his land and gave the proceeds to help those in the church who were suffering, probably widows and orphans from a Hellenistic background like Barnabas. Luke uses the contrast between Barnabas’ love for God and compassion for those in need to Ananias and Sapphira who also sold some land and publicly gave money to the church for those suffering. The striking difference is that the couple publicly lied, pretending to give the total price of the sale. In the scriptures, Barnabas would be described as a “Cheerful giver” (2 Corinthians 9:7). 

The apostle Paul said, "God loves a cheerful giver." While encouraging the believers in Corinth to give generously, Paul didn't want them to give beyond their means, "reluctantly or under compulsion." Most importantly, he wanted them to rely on their inner convictions. Sohlmeditations ministries honors the scriptures as addressed.
