“The tenth commandment forbids coveting because doing so denies the goodness of God. Jesus speaks against hoarding because doing so denies the goodness of God.

Generosity flourishes only when we do not fear loss.” GenerosityHoardingCovetousnessGoodness Of God Book:In His Image: 10 Ways God Calls Us to Reflect His Character Source: In His Image: 10 Ways God Calls Us to Reflect His Character
