Luke 21:1-4 And he looked up, and saw the rich men casting their gifts into the treasury. And he saw also a certain poor widow casting in thither two mites. And he said, Of a truth I say unto you, that this poor widow hath cast in more than they all: for all these have of their abundance cast in unto the offerings of God: but she of her penury hath cast in all the living that she had.
No new revelation required. There are people however who claim to a greater authority than Christ. They have this pressing need to live in colossal mansions. Palaces, even. Unfortunately they DO claim new revelations and extort money from suckers they've brainwashed into delusion from birth to pay for the monstrosities. They even come up with NEW new revelations contradicting previous new revelations to keep the funding up to date because no-one with half a brain would swallow the old new revelation and it works! All such new revelations so far have contradicted what Jesus taught: does anyone get a refund? No.
Matthew 6:24-26 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?

Oh my Lenin! Are you obsessed with communism or what?
Acts 2:44-45
44 And all that believed were together, and had all things common;
45 And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need.
