THE FALSE PROPHETS WHO HATE CHARITY (LOVE) You may love this, but he is totally wrong. I am actually working a response to these false prophets. A Biblical response to these doo gooders, these religious humanitarians, who do not understand the Bible and what it says about Charity. Mankinds evolutionary decent into the pit of Humanism, left his Bible behind him. A man without a Bible is a critic without his bearings. Trending towards comfort, and shying away from conflict. What he is saying is do not give to those who suffer chronic, generational poverty. That giving in a time of EMERGENCY is one thing, but CHRONIC POVERTY exists for a purpose. And he feels that purpose is to get people to improve their work ethic. See, that is neither Biblical, nor does it make any economic sense. Most people who live in chronic poverty, do not have a choice to leave that state of poverty. We are today in the most economically divergent time in the history of mankind. The gap between rich and poor has never been greater int eh history of the world that it is today. The CEO of a company is earning 300% of what the average worker in that same company makes. BOOKS like his book are selling like Tim Hortons coffee. Everyone is waking up it seems to suckers bet of charity. Except, this man is in a church preaching that charity is wrong to a congregation of Christians. This makes him a false prophet. Charity is not a Business, it is a COMMANDMENT from GOD. Jesus said, “The first in importance is, ‘Listen, Israel: The Lord your God is one; so love the Lord God with all your passion and prayer and intelligence and energy.’ And here is the second: ‘Love others as well as you love yourself.’ There is no other commandment that ranks with these.” Mark 12:29-31 Loving your neighbor as yourself. That is Charity. We made a wrong turn, when we, the Church allowed the Government to transform the Church into a corporation. A Church is not a corporation. A Church is not a business. A Church is not a building, or a location as it is under the Govenrment, but a collection of people who have dedicated their lives to those words spoken by Jesus Christ, echoed in Mark 12:29-31. If you love God, you will prove it by your Charity, your Love towards one another. Do not listen to men like this, he does not remember, or never knew what Charity was. This is how we’ve come to understand and experience love: Christ sacrificed his life for us. This is why we ought to live sacrificially for our fellow believers, and not just be out for ourselves. If you see some brother or sister in need and have the means to do something about it but turn a cold shoulder and do nothing, what happens to God’s love? It disappears. And you made it disappear. 1 John 3:16-17 And here we see Gods truth riding in. Love for God is tied inextricably to all mankind, not just to you. God wants you to love like he loves. He loves everybody as if they where a single child, his own child, his only child, Jesus, whom he, God, sent to earth to die for you and I. That was the greatest act of CHARITY in the history of the universe. God died for you and I. And we are to deny each other that love for some carefully parsed rationalizations which all sound like the words of Satan himself in the Garden. Now the serpent was more subtle and crafty than any living creature of the field which the Lord God had made. And he [Satan] said to the woman, Can it really be that God has said, You shall not eat from every tree of the garden? Genesis 3:1 Is 1 John 3:16-17 really saying If you see some brother or sister in need and have the means to do something about it but turn a cold shoulder and do nothing, what happens to God’s love? It disappears.? Yes Satan it does. It says do not turn away from your neighbors needs. Do not turn away from Charity, because the day you do, you sever your ties with God, the Father, Christ, his son and Holy Spirit who councils us in our path toward his glory, the Resurrection of the Saints into the kingdom of heaven. This trend all started with a secular book called DEAD AID. That was a critique of Secular Humanitarian AID which was delivered Government to Government. It was not a critique of the type of Charity this man is complaining about. But none the less, it started a chain reaction, because the book sold so much it has at least four re printings and four different book covers. Next WHEN HELPING HURTS. A book which parallels this one TOXIC CHARITY. Then their are the political critiques of Charity like WHO REALLY CARES, and those who make the case CEOs of Charities should be paid like CEOs in other Corporations. A case made best in CHARITY CASE. These books are written by people who missed the boat Holy Spirit is sailing across the sea of suffering of mankind. If they sail threw life with Holy Spirit they would know this first... There will always be poor people in the land. Therefore I command you to be openhanded toward your fellow Israelites who are poor and needy in your land. Deuteronomy 15:11 As I said Charity is a Commandment. One mirrored throughout the Bible from cover to cover. You can not be a Christian and not do Charitable works, constantly. You can call yourself a Christian, but many people call themselves Christians, whom Jesus will deny. Finally, these books are telling about the direction society is going. Society is becoming selfish to the point where Charity is frowned upon. The Millennium Development Goals expose the Secular Humanitarian Agenda for the AntiChristian values it espouses. First an introduction: The banner of the campaign reads WE CAN END POVERTY BY 2015 United Nations Well, they are going to fail. But not for the reasons espoused in these books. They are not going to fail because donor nations did not honor their financial obligations. Nor are they going to fail because the rather than decreasing poverty is increasing. However these two reasons are at the core of the dissatisfaction with both secular and religious humanitarians, who believed the reason to do get involved in AID and CHARITY was to END POVERTY, HUNGER, VIRULENT DISEASE, LACK OF ACCESS TO EDUCATION. No. The reason to do Charity is because God asked us to as a way of showing love to the God who already has everything. You want to buy God a present, give a toy to a child with none. What economic dependency does that create? Economics are at the heart of all of these critiques. But just as I said earlier, the Church is not a Corporation, neither is Charity an economic activity. Church means people of God, and Charity means love toward each other. Looking after one anothers needs as they arise. All needs at all times, without caveat or restrictions. youtu.be/29bzQqHStTY
