639 entries for this category: What was Jesus trying to teach about giving (amount, motive, attitute)? Jesus was teaching that in the Lord's eyes, this poor widow gave more than all the others put together, though her gift was by far the smallest. The value of the gift is not determined by its amount, but by the spirit in which it is given. A gift given grudgingly or for recognition loses its value. When you give, remember - gifts of any size are pleasing to God when they are given out of gratitude and a spirit of generosity.

What actions of the scribes did Jesus warn against? Do we have people who act like this now? Jesus warned against trying to make a good impression. These teachers of the law were religious hypocrites who had no love for God. True followers of Christ are not distinguished by showy spirituality. Reading the Bible, praying in public, or following church rituals can be phony if the motive for doing them is to be noticed or honoured. Let your actions be consistent with your beliefs and live for Christ, even when no one is looking.

Why does Jesus place commandments to actively love above commandments to refrain from evil (thou shall notâ€Â¦)? Note: Jesus answered with two quotations from the Jewish law about loving God (Deuteronomy 6:4), and about loving neighbors (Leviticus 19:18). God's laws are not burdensome, they can be reduced to two simple principles: love God and love others. These commands are from the Old Testament; Deuteronomy 6:5; Leviticus 19:18. When you love God completely and care for others as you care for yourself, then you have fulfilled the intent of the ten commandments and the other Old Testament laws. According to Jesus, these two commandments summarize all God's laws. Let them rule your thoughts, decisions, and actions. When you are uncertain about what to do, ask yourself which course of action best demonstartes love for God and love for others.
