Select One Teaching Of Jesus 15: 1-2

1. Select one teaching of Jesus from one of the following Bible verses (underline passage): Matthew 5:21-24, Matthew 5:43-48, Matthew 6:19-24, Matthew 7:15-23, Luke 15:1-32, John 13:1-17, 34-35, John 15:1-11. Answer the following questions:

a. What was Jesus’ point in the teaching?

In this teaching, Jesus is telling us that the treasures on earth is not the same as the treasures in heaven. We should be saying don’t waste your time on the so call riches of the earth that does not provide anything that will be useful when we leave this place. God says that if your treasures are stored on earth they can be broken and stolen from thieves. However, we must also allow ourselves to be humbled, teach and help others and ourselves on the path to

What does this teaching reveal about Jesus?

I would say this teaching shows that God is a selfish God and he does not want anything or anyone above or before him. We cannot serve a God and try to serve money and everything else as well.

3. How would you personally answer Jesus’ question, “But who do you say that I am?” Describe your own beliefs about Jesus.

It is like the saying always listen to your first instinct, most of the it is right. When I am faced with difficult task or financial problems in the beginning I us to worry, however in the end it seems to somehow take care of itself
