Kingdom Living - The Commands of ChristSample

Commands of Christ: 62 

Be generous to the poor. 

This command is reminiscent of the Law and the Prophets in the Old Testament. God continually shows concern for the poor, the needy, the disadvantaged, the disenfranchised. He commands His people to care for them. This is not to earn favor with God by our pious actions. It is to honor Him and demonstrate our love for Him and others, displaying His character and His nature in our daily conduct and generosity and concern.
