>Matthew 13:12 For whoever has, more will be given to him, and he will have more than enough; but whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.
Often thought to refer either to material posessions or to knowledge of God. In both instances keeps with the overarching notion that those who seek knowledge will benefit from it and those who produce more than they consume and invest the surplus will righteously prosper.

>Matthew 6:1-4 Be careful not to perform your righteous acts before men to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven. So when you give to the needy, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by men. Truly I tell you, they already have their full reward. But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be in secret. And your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.
Acts of charity are done as a service to God, not as a way to gain good favor with men. Reject any charity that is focused around attracting attention to itself, "branding," galas etc. These inevitably become infested with corrupt people and do not accomplish their stated goals.

>Mark 12:38-40 In His teaching Jesus also said, Watch out for the scribes. They like to walk around in long robes, to receive greetings in the marketplaces, and to have the chief seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at banquets. They defraud widows of their houses, and for a show make lengthy prayers. These men will receive greater condemnation.
Wealth gained because of righteous action is a blessing; wealth gained because of evil actions is an evil act. People who know they have gained wealth because of evil actions will often spend it in order to gain prominence they would not be given freely. Reject people making public displays of virtue, especially if their daily actions are immoral.

2 Corinthians 9

6But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully. 7Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. 8And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work:

9(As it is written, He hath dispersed abroad; he hath given to the poor: his righteousness remaineth for ever.

haha

Strike!
Fast and hard, show no mercy for these men
The vermin of christ, prophets of lies and their disciples
Seek them out, hunt them down
Break their spirits, crush their hearts
Not even death will set them free from this pain

Charge!
Ride them down as they flee from our steel
Draw their blood, make them suffer
Before they die by war-field sacrifice
Wipe them out! Burn their homes burn their fields
Feed the wolves with their offspring, annihilate them all!

Masters of War, torment every soul
Rape every whore that carries the cross

Fire!
Burn them all, burn them alive
Send their souls to Deathqueen's hall
To the land of cold burning flames
Send them to the land of famine and despair
Eternally they will starve and freeze

hahahahahaha

> Luke 14:25-33 Which of you, wishing to build a tower, does not first sit down and count the cost to see if he has the resources to complete it? Otherwise, if he lays the foundation and is unable to finish the work, everyone who sees it will ridicule him, saying, ‘This man could not finish what he started to build.’ Or what king on his way to war with another king will not first sit down and consider whether he can engage with ten thousand men the one coming against him with twenty thousand? And if he is unable, he will send a delegation while the other king is still far off, to ask for terms of peace. In the same way, any one of you who does not give up everything he has cannot be My disciple.
Christ had his disciples be certain they understood the sacrifice they were making which often involved loss of relationships and material wealth. In the same way Christians should first decide if they want to follow Christ before being concerned with relationships and wealth. Ironically through focusing on righteousness and faith they generally end up having healthier relationships and more wealth in the real world.

>Luke 16:10-13 Whoever is faithful with very little will also be faithful with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much. If, then, you have not been faithful with worldly wealth, who will entrust you with true riches? And if you have not been faithful with the belongings of another, who will give you belongings of your own? No servant can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.
Money is a thing, just like all other worldly things. It makes no more sense to love or hate money than it makes to love or hate a shovel. Similarly, placing a worldly good above God is a common human failure, and is logically inconsistent. Treat money with respect just like you would any worldly good and you will be it's master. Everyone serves a master: make sure your master is worthy of your service.

Absolutely based and truthpilled. It really is the final redpill, most people dont understand that the (((Jews))) are actually satanists whereas true Jews are ones who submit to the Father through Jesus. Genetics and heritage mean shit. Not everyone will make it though as prophesized, the ones who didn't listen will be roped.
