2 CORINTHIANS 8:12 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“For if there be first a willing mind, it is accepted according to that a man hath, and not according to that he hath not.”
For if the willingness is there, the gift is acceptable according to what one has, not according to what one does not have — Paul enunciates the principle of proportional giving based on *ktéma*, what is actually *possessed*, not imagined wealth. God judges the *prohaíresis*, the deliberate will, not the absolute amount. A widow's mite exceeds a rich man's abundance.
