Luke 6:38 (Contemporary English Version)
38If you give to others, you will be given a full amount in return. It will be packed down, shaken together, and spilling over into your lap.
BUT...
1 Corinthians 13:1-3 (New King James Version)
1 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. 2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.
