who owned lands or houses sold them, brought the money to the
apostles and it was distributed to anyone as he had need. (Acts,
4:33-35)

For the pagan world runs after all such things, and your God knows
that you need them. But seek His kingdom [seek God's approval],
and these things will be given to you as well. "Do not be afraid, lit-
tle flock, for your God has been pleased to give you the kingdom.
Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide purses for
yourselves that will not wear out, a treasure in heaven that will
not be exhausted, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys.
For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. (Luke,
12:30-34)

[Jesus:] "But I tell you who hear me: If someone takes your cloak,
do not stop him from taking your tunic. Give to everyone who
asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not de-
mand it back. Do to others as you would have them do to you...
And if you do good to those who are good to you, what credit is
that to you? Even 'sinners' do that. And if you lend to those from
whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you? Even 'sin-
ners' lend to 'sinners,' expecting to be repaid in full. But love your
enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to
get anything back. Then your reward will be great." (Luke, 6:27-35)

"Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth
and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up
for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not de-
stroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your

treasure is, there your heart will be also. (Matthew, 6:19-21)
