35 In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’ ” —Acts 20:35> The Love of money is the root of all evil. —1 Timothy 6:10> So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you… —Matthew 7:12> Jesus did many other things as well. If every one of them were written down, I suppose that even the whole world would not have room for the books that would be written. —John 21:25> I want you to know, brothers and sisters, that the gospel I preached is not of human origin. 12 I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it; rather, I received it by revelation from Jesus Christ. —Galatians 1:11-12> “not to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many” . —Matthew 20:28> For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. —John 3:16> 0 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. —Matthew 6:20> “Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.” —Luke 6:38> 17 Command those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth, which is so uncertain, but to put their hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment. 18 Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share. 19 In this way they will lay up treasure for themselves as a firm foundation for the coming age, so that they may take hold of the life that is truly life. —1 Timothy 6:17-19> Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously. —2 Corinthians 9:6
