Jesus said this:
Jesus sat down opposite the place where the offerings were put
and watched the crowd putting their money into the temple treasury.
Many rich people threw in large amounts. But a poor widow came and
put in two very small copper coins, worth only a fraction of a
penny.
Calling his disciples to him, Jesus said, "I tell you
the truth, this poor widow has put more into the treasury than all
the others. They all gave out of their wealth; but she,
out of her poverty, put in everything—all she had to live on."
Jesus knows that the temple jews were money grubbing evil men.
Jesus knew that the money would most probabily end up in their
pockets and misused.
But Jesus also knew the heart of the giver. He knew the widow's
intention is to give to God. I bet the widow also knew that the
money would most probably be swallowed up by the greedy pharasees.
But her intention is to love God and do the right thing.
And Jesus honoured that.
n i told the city harvest guy that their church is as
grand as the temples in JC's days.except i didnt go on to say JC
also thrashed them out of the holy temple.
my point is people of God must understand that the material
wealth they gave to their organization means that they appreciated
the grace of God in that humans have whatever they own becuz of God
and his creations..to give back to God means we appreciate that
undeserved loving kindness..
however,many people give blindly.or were deceived with the wrong
dotrine and twisted words to give freely..
i dont really mean only rich people will receive all the
blessing or i would not have put ".."...
