TSK · Matthew 19:21

The Judgment of the Flood This is the account of Noah. Noah was a godly man; he was blameless among his contemporaries. He walked with God.

A disciple is not greater than his teacher, but everyone when fully trained will be like his teacher.

Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide yourselves purses that do not wear out– a treasure in heaven that never decreases, where no thief approaches and no moth destroys.

And I tell you, make friends for yourselves by how you use worldly wealth, so that when it runs out you will be welcomed into the eternal homes.

My sheep listen to my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.

and they began selling their property and possessions and distributing the proceeds to everyone, as anyone had need.

Keep Going Forward Not that I have already attained this– that is, I have not already been perfected– but I strive to lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus also laid hold of me.

For in fact you shared the sufferings of those in prison, and you accepted the confiscation of your belongings with joy, because you knew that you certainly had a better and lasting possession.
