This is why historically "health care" was a function of the work of the body of Christ.

No, it's a function of the family - who in this care are nowhere in sight.

(Hmm, the state steps in where the family fails. Wonder if that's why the statists are constantly attacking the family?)

The family is the first expression of the body of Christ.

That's why the scripture teaches us to take care of our own. In fact, it says that we're worse than the heathens if we don't.

But if anyone does not provide for his own, and especially for those of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever. (I Timothy 5:8)
