I can't recall any scripture that calls for the elimination of poverty.
"Better the little that the righteous have than the wealth of many wicked." Psalm 37:l6
"Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless; maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed. Rescue the weak and needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked." Psalm 82:3,4
Thank you for the verses.
Kinda makes my point. Certainly we must help the needy. I just don't recall anything about "eliminating poverty."
