To: Salvation
I tell you, use worldly wealth to gain friends for yourselves, so that when it is gone, they will welcome you into eternal dwellings (Lk 16:9). In other words, if we are generous to the poor here, they are going to be powerful advocates for us on our judgment day.

By far the vast majority of the "poor" that I am aware of are unrepentant enemies of God, so I'm pretty sure I don't want to be welcomed to their eternal dwellings. The concept of the poor as suffering innocents who simply can't find work is an utter fabrication in this country, and the "poor" in many other countries are enemies of God (false god worshippers). So how does this work exactly?

That was true before the Kenyan Commie was placed into office through fraud.

Alas, there are many who would work but cannot find jobs today. Tens of millions, certainly.
