Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom.
All Commentaries on Luke 12:32 Go To Luke 12
John Chrysostom
AD 407
For there is no sin which almsgiving does not avail to blot out. It is a salve adapted to every wound. But almsgiving has to do not only with money, but with all matters also wherein man, as when the physician heals, and the wise man gives counsel.
For without alms it is impossible to see the kingdom. For as a fountain if it keeps its waters within itself grows foul, so also rich men when they retain every thing in their possession.
