"So when
you give to the poor, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do
in the synagogues and in the streets, so that they may be honored by men. Truly
I say to you, they have their reward in full.” - Matthew 6:2
The reason for giving is in question by Jesus. Giving to the needy was
for a Jew a pillar of faith but the religious leaders were giving to be praised
by others. Jesus says that is all they are getting. We Christians still have
the mandate to give. Where is your heart when you do so?
