35 In all things I showed you that so laboring we ought to help the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that he said, 'It is more blessed to give than to receive.'

Acts 20:35
Romans 13:7
7 Pay to all their dues, tribute to whom tribute is due, custom to whom custom is due, respect to whom respect is due, honor to whom honor is due.
Hebrews 7:1-28
1 FOR, this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of God Most High, who met Abraham when he was returning from the defeat of the kings and blessed him,
2 and to whom Abraham gave a tenth of all (first, by the translation of his name, "King of Righteousness," and then king of Salem, which means "King of Peace"),
3 without father, without mother, without ancestors, without either birthday or end of life, but made like the Son of God, remains a priest permanently.
4 But see how great this man was, since Abraham the patriarch gave him a tenth of his choicest spoils.
5 And even those of the sons of Levi who attain the priesthood have command according to the Law to take a tenth from the people, their own brethren, although these have sprung from the loins of Abraham.
6 But he who had no genealogy from these took a tenth from Abraham and pronounced a blessing on him who had the promises.
7 Without dispute the less is blessed by the greater.
8 And here mortal men receive tenths, but there one of whom the witness is that he is living.
9 And, to put it frankly, Levi, who receives the tenths, was made to pay a tenth through Abraham.
10 For he was still in the loins of his father when Melchizedek met Abraham.
11 If, then, perfection had been through the Levitical priesthood, — for on the basis of that the people received the Law — what need was there for another kind of priest to arise and not be called of the order of Aaron?
12 For when the priesthood has been changed there comes of necessity also a change of law.
13 For he of whom these things are said belongs to another tribe, from which no one has ever had anything to do with the altar.
14 For it is plain that our Lord has arisen from Judah, and in connection with that tribe Moses said nothing about priests.
15 And this is yet more abundantly evident if after the order of Melchizedek there arises a priest of a different kind
16 who has become such, not according to the law of a commandment made for the flesh, but according to the power of unending life.
17 For it is affirmed of him, "Thou art a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek."
18 There is a setting aside of the earlier commandment because of its weakness and uselessness —
19 for the Law brought nothing to perfection — and there is the bringing in of a better hope through which we draw near to God.
20 And just as it was not without an oath —
21 for those men have become priests without an oath, but he with an oath from him who said to him, "The Lord has sworn and will not change his mind: thou art a priest forever" —
22 by so much better is the covenant of which Jesus has become surety.
23 And many of them became priests because they were prevented by death from continuing,
24 but he, because he continues forever, has an unending priesthood.
25 And so he is able to save perfectly those who come to God through him, since he is forever living to intercede for them.
26 For such was the High Priest that we needed, holy, innocent, unstained, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens.
27 He has not the daily need, like the other priests, first to offer sacrifices for his own sins and then for those of the people. This latter he did once for all when he offered himself.
28 For the Law makes high priests of men who have infirmities, but the word of the oath, which comes after the Law, makes High Priest of a Son who is perfected forever.
Matthew 23:23
23 "Alas for you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for you pay tithes of mint, dill, and carraway and have disregarded the weightier matters of the law — justice and kindness and good faith. These you should have practiced, without neglecting those other things.
Matthew 6:1-4
1 "BE careful not to do your religious actions before men in order to be seen by them. Otherwise you have no reward from your Father in heaven.
2 When you give gifts of mercy, do not sound a trumpet before you as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, in order that they may be honored by men. I assure you they get their payment in full.
3 But you, when you are giving a gift of mercy, must not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing,
4 so that your gift may be in secret, and your Father, who sees in secret, will repay you.
Luke 11:42
42 But alas for you, Pharisees! Because you tithe mint, and rue, and every herb, and pass by justice and the love of God. These things you ought to have practiced, without omitting the others.
Luke 6:38
38 Give and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed in, shaken down, and running over they will pour into your lap. For with the measure that you measure with will the return to you be measured."
Mark 12:41-44
41 Having seated himself across from the contribution box, he was watching how the crowd dropped money into the box. Many rich people were dropping in large gifts.
42 There came a poor widow and dropped in two mites, in value one penny.
43 Then Jesus called his disciples to him and said to them, "I tell you truly, this widow, poor as she is, has dropped in more than all the others who are dropping money into the contribution box.
44 For they all contributed out of their superfluity, but she out of her poverty dropped in all that she had — the whole of what she had to live on."
2 Corinthians 9:6-8
6 Remember this, he who sows sparingly will reap sparingly and he who sows bountifully will reap bountifully.
7 Let each give as he has purposed in his heart, not grudgingly nor of necessity, for God loves a cheerful giver.
8 God is able to make every blessing abound for you so that having in everything always all that you need, you may abound in every good work,
