Luke 6:33
"And if you do good only to those who do good to you, why should you get credit? Even sinners do that much!"
"DO UT DES"
Does anyone know what this means?
It means;
"I GIVE SO THAT YOU GIVE..."
"I give to you so that you give back to me."
In other words;
"I HAVE NO REWARD!"
"YOU HAVE NO REWARD!"
"IT IS A SUPERFICIAL WAY OF GIVING THAT CARRIES NO ETERNAL BENEFITS!"
"BUT GOD DEMANDS MORE FROM US AS CHRISTIANS!"
"GOD DEMANDS SACRIFICIAL GIVING!"
This kind of giving benefits the person receiving the gift at the present moment & stores up treasures in heavenly places for the giver to be enjoyed in the future.
"THEREFORE, LET US GIVE WITH GODLY INTENTIONS!"
(To benefit the one who will receive!)
Jesus said'
"IT IS MORE BLESSED TO GIVE THAN TO RECEIVE!"
"JESUS GAVE HIMSELF, SO THAT WE COULD BECOME GIVERS!"
I know this may be a touchy subject for some,
But try it, you'll like it!
