In short, Jesus is saying how we treat poor and vulnerable people - TopicsExpress



          

In short, Jesus is saying how we treat poor and vulnerable people is how we treat God, and at the Last Judgment, we ultimately will be held accountable. During Advent, as we surf the Internets bargains and trudge through the nations malls and big box stores, we would do well to keep this parable in mind, considering the true cost of our Christmas purchases. This Christmas when you buy a Disney toy, for example, like a Mickey Mouse stuffed animal or a toddlers princess dress, note not only how affordable it is, but also consider the price workers have paid to bring you this product. Young, mostly female, Chinese employees at the Dream International Factory in Shenzhen, China, earn just $1.39 an hour making Disney stuffed animals and those adorable dresses for 93 to 117 hours a week, with forced overtime, according to a December 2012 report from the Institute for Global Labour and Human Rights.
