Spiritual and Material Values
« on: May 05, 2012, 10:11:13 PM »
The Bible provide many examples of values. From a Christian perspective, values can be broken into two classes, material values and spiritual values. Material values focus totally on things like sex, food, shelter, and love of money. Spiritual values focus on ideals such as truth, love, and righteousness. The Bible has many parables addressing material and spiritual values. The parable of the Rich Fool teaches us God's position on people valuing material things over the spiritual things of God. The parable of the Ten Virgins teaches us the importance of putting our spiritual beliefs and values into action. Just “talking the talk” will not fool God on what you really value in life. The parable of the Talents also teaches us to seek and act on our spiritual values. God will give increase to the diligent, but will take away from the slothful and uncommitted. See below for several examples of values from the Bible. Key Bible Verses: 1 Corinthians 2:14, Luke 12:20: Parable of the Rich Fool ..., Matthew 25:13: Parable of the Ten Virgins ... and Matthew 25:29: Parable of the Talents. -- http://www.access-jesus.com/examples-of-values.html
