OFFER A GIFT

Loving Jesus Means Avoiding Anything Nauseous to Him–Jesus warned those believers at Laodicea to be very cautious about money & possessions. Possessions had distracted those early believers from why they had ever been left here on Earth.

 
Possession-distraction was a theme in Christ’s teaching. A simple scan of His parables shows that 16 of Christ’s 38 parables were about the proper stewardship of money and possessions. A closer look shows that about one out of every seven words that Christ spoke in the Gospels are about money and possessions.
 
Jesus was making the invisible God’s wishes, and expectations–known to us His children. The summary of all Jesus taught may be stated as: Money is an important monitor of our hearts that reveals we either serve materialism or God.
