Mark 10:21
"Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him, One thing thou lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, take up the cross, and follow me."
It says clearly to give up ALL your money, not 10%. This means that whatever you give to charity and what not is NOT enough in the eyes of god. And yes, Jesus was referring to greed and love of money, but if you are not willing to give up your fancy clothes or your car, you are committing the same sin as this man. There is no way around it. If you give up your car, you could learn to take the bus or walk.
Since people were uncomfortable giving me money, I am asking you to send all your money to St. Jude Children’s Hospital, The Children’s Miracle Network, or some other form of charity. All you have to do is prove with legal papers that you have followed Jesus’ word. And no, you’re not proving anything to “me” by doing this.
