Subject: So what was the 2nd vision??? |
Bible Note: Hi Leftwich, If you are using that verse (Matthew 6:3) in regards to whether or not to share this vision of yours, then I think you're slightly off. Notice in the verses below that Jesus is talking about giving to the poor, but I think we can apply what He said to any works that we do. If we do something nice for someone, then don't let others know so as to get a pat on the back for it or our reward will be paid in full right then and there and we'll get no reward from the father when we get to heaven. Matthew 6:1-4 "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. "But when you give to the poor, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving will be in secret; and your Father who sees what is done in secret will reward you." I have been guilty of this at times myself but it is best not to take a verse our of context for use any way we want it. If I'm way off base as to your usage of this verse then I apologize but this is how it seems to me. God Bless bgg |
