But gentiles (xians included) would only give charity with the ultimate understanding that they would in the end be blessed for doing it.

That's quite the statement... Don't agree with it, but sad that people think that's true.


I agree Want2Learn. I was pretty upset with the statement myself. I know people who don't exspect anything in return. But I also know that giving gives you satification in knowing you've been able to helped someone. With that then, could the statement be true, if receiving satifaction is the blessing they look for?
