1. To submit or present, as for consideration, approval, or payment: render a bill.

All things exist to display the supreme value of God. Taxes, marriage, sacrifices… God is God of all. The all of the gospel centered mssional Christian is to live life in such a way as to show the world that their primary treasure and allegiance is to God. The beauty if this is that as we focus wholeheartedly, passionately and relentlessly on the giver, the gifts all fall into proper alignment. Loving God leads to loving others. Mark 12:13-34
