Quarterly Journal Mark 12:41-44 And Jesus sat over against the treasury, and beheld how the people cast money into the treasury: and many that were rich cast in much.… A religion which costs nothing is good for nothing. Like a certain kind of faith which we read of, "it is dead, being alone." How much meaning was conveyed in the reply which one man made to another who offered to contribute a small amount to some benevolent object, and said, "I can give this and not feel it!" "Would it not be better for you, my friend, to increase it to such an amount that you will feel it?" So in every case. A person should feel what he does, and should do what he will be likely to feel, or morally there will be but very little good resulting from it. (Quarterly Journal.)
