There are many in our country who are poor. Rather than chastising responsible people who manage their money well, to give to the poor, we ought to be chastising the poor for their entitlement mentality. This country has been very generous. Churches give away free clothing, there are many soup kitchens and even the government takes from the hard working people to give to those who are lazy.
Using every excuse they can come up with to say they are disabled when they could do something to earn their own way these people believe they deserve to be taken care of by others.
Yes, there are some people who need help but many who are receiving it do not need that help. They would just rather sit on their bums and take from those who spent a lifetime of working to take care of themselves..
In our country the "poor" don't need it, most are already sucking off of the government on the money of those who worked hard all their lives. Nearly all the poor people I know are there because they have been irresponsible, using drugs, alcohol, gambling and foolishly spending their resources, not to mention refusing to work or follow rules to keep a job.
2 Thessalonians 3:10 "For even when we were with you, this we commanded you: that if any would not work, neither should he eat."
This is the face of socialism, allowing the lazy to remain so while penalizing the hard workers for their diligence.
Its not God's way but it sounds alright to the unbelieving world.
