OK, what does taking care of the poor really mean? In all the pomp and robes the Church shows off, taking care of the poor is our responsibility. What I mean by this is, you have a neighbor who is out of work and can’t feed his family even on UE, you help him and his family. Or another neighbor needs to fix a fence and can’t afford 100 dollars for materials, go buy them and help him apply them. The LW’s ideal of taxation because Jesus wanted that is ridiculous because nowhere in Scripture can that be found. Jesus did feed the poor, but He also delivered a message if repentance and Salvation to the needy. They had to respond. So, if we are going to feed the masses, we have the same responsibility Jesus had and that is to preach the Gospel, and offer them the plan of salvation. Liberals want us to give our food and money and pay for “administrators” to distribute the food and get a paycheck and benefits for doing it. And the administrators for the most part live and eat better than the givers and the poor. Jesus would call them money changers, and curse them. Liberals wouldn’t want that you know. Just sayin’

Because wealth is both created by talent and consumed by spender.....to redistribute wealth one would need to redistribute talent and curb the spender..its the consumer of wealth ..the spenders..that are the lover of money..root of evil
