As you know Paul had been authorized by the Jerusalem council to act as an apostle to the gentiles, on the condition that he would bring back a big fat tithe. I am sure you remember that Peter was a hook-nosed Jew whose name means "the Rock?". Well, Paul's job was to gather money from the new Christians (homosexual Greeks) and give it to Peter. Talk about finding yourself between "a rock" and a hard place. Oy vey!
If you look at chapter 9 you'll see how Paul speaks of reaping carnal profits. He founded the congregation in Corinth and now he intends to "eat the fruit thereof":
1 Cor 9:7 Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock?
1 Cor 9:8 Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also?
1 Cor 9:9 For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen?
1 Cor 9:10 Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope.
1 Cor 9:11 If we have sown unto you spiritual things, is it a great thing if we shall reap your carnal things?

Praise the Lord, Mr. Danish. Paul goes on to say in that chapter,
Quote:
1 Cor 9:18-19
What is my reward then? Verily that, when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without charge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel. For though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more.

We can clearly see that the Word is free to all.

1 Cor 16:2 Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come.
1 Cor 16:3 And when I come, whomsoever ye shall approve by your letters, them will I send to bring your liberality unto Jerusalem.
There it is: As plain a the nose in Peter's face. Now, do you understand why Paul considers charity to be more important than hope and faith?

Combine that with James 2:1-7 and you have the perfect socialist Word as our Lord and Savior intended it. Hallelujah! We are all equal!
My brethren, have not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, with respect of persons.
For if there come unto your assembly a man with a gold ring, in goodly apparel, and there come in also a poor man in vile raiment;
And ye have respect to him that weareth the gay clothing, and say unto him, Sit thou here in a good place; and say to the poor, Stand thou there, or sit here under my footstool:
Are ye not then partial in yourselves, and are become judges of evil thoughts?
Hearken, my beloved brethren, Hath not God chosen the poor of this world rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he hath promised to them that love him?
But ye have despised the poor. Do not rich men oppress you, and draw you before the judgment seats?
Do not they blaspheme that worthy name by the which ye are called?
Proverbs 25:21-22 If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, give him water to drink:
For thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head, and the LORD shall reward thee.

Matthew 22:37-40
Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt KJV translation love (charity) agaphseiVthe Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment.
And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love (plhsion)thy neighbour as thyself.
On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
To my fellow scholars in the house.
Proverbs 25:21-22 If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, give him water to drink:
For thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head, and the LORD shall reward thee.

Are you trying to suggest that there's an error in the Bible (KJV)?
May you be a blessing to every life you touch.
