On Jesus' Possessions
Categories: Church of Christ Bulletin ArticlesIn the lifetime of Jesus, it’s interesting to note that we do not hear Him ever speak of “my house,” “my land,” “my farm,” “my books,” “my business,” or “my “money.”
Rather, we hear Him speak of “My Father” (Matthew 10:33), “My friends” (John 15:14), “My disciples” (John 15:8), “My church” (Matthew 16:18), “My name” (Matthew 18:20), “My words” (Mark 8:38), “My sheep” (John 10:27), and “My joy” (John 15:11).
The implication is strikingly clear (Matthew 6:33; Luke 12:15; Colossians 3:1-3).
