This statement shows that Jesus

Answer Details
The statement "Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth" indicates that Jesus does not want Christians to prioritize the accumulation of material possessions in this world. He wants believers to understand that earthly treasures are temporary and can be destroyed, stolen or lost, and instead encourages them to focus on accumulating heavenly treasures that will last for eternity. Therefore, seeking first the kingdom of God is the main message conveyed in this statement.
