Where Your Treasure Is
Biblical Theology
Themes
Jesus connects treasure with the heart and speaks of treasure in heaven in calls to give to the poor.
The Bible says that where a person's treasure is, that person's heart is also, as stated in Matthew 6:21 and Luke 12:34. In Mark 10:21, Jesus tells a man to sell what he has and give to the poor, saying he will have treasure in heaven before calling him to follow. Luke 18:22 similarly records Jesus telling a man to distribute all he has to the poor, promising treasure in the heavens and then calling him to follow.
