2 When you give in charity, never blow a trumpet before you as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and streets in order that their praises may be sung by men. I solemnly tell you that they already have their reward.
8 Cure the sick, raise the dead to life, cleanse lepers, drive out demons: you have received without payment, give without payment.
7 Let each contribute what he has decided upon in his own mind, and not do it reluctantly or under compulsion. »It is a cheerful giver that God loves.«
12 For, assuming the earnest willingness, the gift is acceptable according to whatever a man has, and not according to what he has not.
3 But when you are giving in charity, let not your left hand perceive what your right hand is doing,
4 that your charities may be in secret; and then your Father –He who sees in secret– will recompense you.
8 And God is able to bestow every blessing on you in abundance, so that richly enjoying all sufficiency at all times, you may have ample means for all good works.
30 To every one who asks, give; and from him who takes away your property, do not demand it back.
38 give, and gifts shall be bestowed on you. Full measure, pressed, shaken down, and running over, shall they pour into your laps; for with the same measure that you use they shall measure to you in return.«
3 And if I distribute all my possessions to the poor, and give up my body to be burned, but am destitute of Love, it profits me nothing.
10 And God who continually supplies seed for the sower and bread for eating, will supply you with seed and multiply it, and will cause your almsgiving to yield a plentiful harvest.
11 May you be abundantly enriched so as to show all liberality, such as through our instrumentality brings thanksgiving to God.
21 »If you desire to be perfect,« replied Jesus, »go and sell all that you have, and give to the poor, and you shall have wealth in Heaven; and come, follow me.«
