What do you think of this idea, Christians -?

When Christ says that those who don't give everything to him are not worthy of him, he means not only your money and your virtue, but also your sins?

    Jesus is saying whoever values anything over Him is not worthy of Him. Is your money more important than the Lord in your life? That is what He is speaking about. Just like the commandment said, there should be nothing in our hearts before God.

    to be of worthy to Christ you must seek him first. to be Christian is not to be purfect it is to be Christ like, not only in your every day way in life but also your mind set and how you treat others. Ephesians 4: 21- 24 if indeed you have heard Him and have been taught by Him, as the truth is in Jesus. that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man with grows corrupt according to the deceitfel lusts. and be renewed in the spirit of your mind. and that you put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and hollness.

    I guess you'll get a few people thinking and the haters hating.

    I can't say anything - I never memorized the bible, I just float along in ignorance.

    I remember Jesus died for our sins and opened the gates of hell, to make sure only the souls that deserve this are sent there. I seem to remember Jesus said give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar - what belongs to GOD to GOD. Oh, and the two commandments - Jesus saw that 10 commandments were to hard for us, humans, to follow, I not insulted, life is easier with two.

    Enjoy reading your answers.

    Nobody is worthy, that's why he sent Christ as our sacrificial lamb to die on the cross for our sins. We are to give 10% of our earnings to God, this is tithing, we are to put nothing before God. God Bless!!

    all good things to him, and all those heavy tests as a sacrifice for the forgiveness of our sins.

    ah for those people that say that money is more important, answer this to yourself: are you going to b buried with your money? or are you going to buy something in hell with that money?

    sorry, but material people makes me irritated...but anyway, to them God bless you and hope He clarifies your minds
