When someone abortion jukes a thread about poverty
When some of the other servants saw this, they were very upset. They went to the king and told him everything that had happened. Then the king called in the man he had forgiven and said, ‘You evil servant! I forgave you that tremendous debt because you pleaded with me. Shouldn’t you have mercy on your fellow servant, just as I had mercy on you?’ Then the angry king sent the man to prison to be tortured until he had paid his entire debt.

Matthew 18 (NLT) Did anybody pass this on to the US banking industry? |
Woe to those who make unjust laws, to those who issue oppressive decrees,to deprive the poor of their rights and withhold justice from the oppressed of my people, making widows their prey and robbing the fatherless. What will you do on the day of reckoning, when disaster comes from afar? To whom will you run for help? Where will you leave your riches? Nothing will remain but to cringe among the captives or fall among the slain.

Isaiah and his communist war on the Profiting Class and Job Creators Is 10:1-4 |
As a sign of our decision to reject absurdities that only lengthen and deepen our problems – false solutions and deceitful proposals for solving the greatest problems of humanity:
- Let us abandon definitely the concept of “development”. We have treasured it, for it ignited so much hope throughout the world, but it has quickly become contaminated, and now lends itself to unacceptable errors.
The concept of “development” spent itself very quickly because after the first decade of development, rich countries became even richer, and poor countries even poorer.
The concept of “development” now lends itself to unacceptable errors, because our ideal should not be to transform a situation of poverty and misery into a consumer society, which simply creates new areas of misery, racism, and precarious conditions at the heart of rich countries themselves.
- Let us adopt immediately a new concept, and make it our banner for a struggle that is peaceful yet sure and effective. Let us hold with both hands the flag of liberation!
Liberation from selfishness and its consequences!
Liberation from all systems of slavery!
Liberation from wars!
Liberation from all forms of racism!
Liberation from misery, which is the worst, the most hypocritical, and the bloodiest of all wars!
Liberation from half solutions, from mere reform, from band-aid measures that amount to nothing more than paternalism
Liberation from fear and false prudence!
Liberation, just like the one Moses experienced and that God personally led, which enlightens all of salvation history with the liberation of God’s people from slavery to the pharaohs!
Liberation, just like the one that Jesus brought about on the cross, so that there would no longer be superhumans or subhumans but simply humans, children of the same Father, bound together as brothers and sisters in the redeeming blood, guided by the Spirit of God!

About three-fourths of White Evangelical Christians are favoring these two candidates - who have shown contemptuous views of the poor. Bible-believing Christians surely read their bibles, no?
Share each other’s burdens, and in this way obey the [communist] law of Christ.
