Jesus urged his followers to store up, not material goods on earth, but “treasures in heaven, ” that is, to establish a good name with God, who“ knows what things you are needing before ever you ask him. ” ​ — Matthew 6: 8, 19 - 25.
Jēzus aicināja savus sekotājus krāt ” mantas debesīs ” — iegūt labu slavu Dieva acīs, kurš ” zina, kā [mums] vajaga, pirms [mēs] viņu lūdzam ” —, nevis uzkrāt materiālās bagātības uz zemes.
