1Timoteo 4:8-10
Pity is defined as a feeling of compassion or mercy that produces someone who suffers or suffers
with origin in the Latin word pietas, the concept of piety gives name to the virtue that provokes devotion in front of everything related to holy matters and is guided by the love that feels towards God, it is also about the virtue that is translates into actions driven by the love felt by others and compassion towards others.
Having said that, we understand from the Bible that piety is a gift, a virtue that makes people appreciate gratitude and praise to God.
Piety is the fruit of the true knowledge of God, holy life does not accommodate bad attitudes and seeks God in all circumstances.
There is a call from God for his people, a basic gift that the Christian has to practice and is the virtue of piety, the apostle Paul advised to exercise this virtue with great concern for the lack of it in the people of God, insisted on The importance of practicing it, then, this virtue brings eternal benefits, benefits that not only would have in the present, but also for eternity
Piety is one of the mysteries of God given to his children, it is a gift that comes only from Him that manifests itself in an intimate love towards others
A person who has many riches and does good deeds can do it for two reasons: for the appearance of piety because he has something to give, or because he really has contentment with what God gives him and feels pity for others.
¡We must be careful with mercy!
We have been called to exercise piety, an attitude of obedience to God in all the acts of our lives
