The Sermon On The Mount Prt 7 Almsgiving & Charity

On this episode we go into the The 7th part of the Sermon on the Mount series Jesus speaks on Almsgiving & Charity & how many who he names hypocrites and later identifies as scribes and pharisees give their charity in public in a prideful way and how the love for this type of attention can be poison to our relationship with God and what it truly means to be humble and to serve others honestly & prudently we look at some examples of David & Elisha & their relationship with God & Jesus and how they walked in this example of Love & compassion
