You are right in that you have a wrong interpretation of what I think.
Again, you posted:

In, fact, the best thing you can give to the poor is not silver and goal.....nay.....but what you have been given of God.
What we have been given of God, following giving up dependence on selfishness, is the ability to live selfless lives and still survive, because God is involved. This is not the hope non believer's have, they suffer when they sacrifice. Not so believer's, identified by those who are the little flock, who have been given the Kingdom, the involvement of the Finger of God, a sign of God being in the midst of the great work.
Matthew 19
27Then Peter said to Him, “Behold, we have left everything and followed You; what then will there be for us?” 28And Jesus said to them, “Truly I say to you, that you who have followed Me, in the regeneration when the Son of Man will sit on His glorious throne, you also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. 29“And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or farms for My name’s sake, will receive many times as much, and will inherit eternal life. 30“But many who are first will be last; and the last, first.
Luke 12
32“Do not be afraid, little flock, for your Father has chosen gladly to give you the kingdom.
33“Sell your possessions and give to charity; make yourselves money belts which do not wear out, an unfailing treasure in heaven, where no thief comes near nor moth destroys. 34“For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
Exodus 8
19Then the magicians said to Pharaoh, "This is the finger of God." But Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he did not listen to them, as the LORD had said.
