    If you have to live on 4.50 $ a day, you would cook yourself rather than buy fastfood at a restaurant. This is a very poor example. Nevertheless

    The "Poor" Can Live Like Kings on $4.50 a Day.
    Just go to your local supermarket and find the shelf with dry beans.
    So according to you a king eats nothing but dry beans every day? I can't help it, but being a king isn't what it used to be;-).

      Friend, you are out of touch. Those that give to Jesus are cared for by God. Many days, I spend nothing yet dine on the finest cuts of meats. As a man, I never 'cook'. I do grill though.
      Isaiah 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.
      Amos 3:6 Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it?
      Numbers 21:6 And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died.
      Matthew 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
      Matthew 10:35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
      Matthew 10:36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.

        My wife clips coupons and hits the sales and feeds the five of us like royalty for less than $4.50 per day.

        The only drawback is I have to listen to how well she did as I'm sitting in the driver's seat of our Chevy Suburban and she's loading the week's groceries into the back. I want to tell her she'd get it loaded more quickly if she would shut her yap, but I allow her this indulgence because I'm a softy sometimes.

        I Kings 7:23

        And he made a moulten Sea, ten cubites from the one brim to the other: it was round all about, & his height was fiue cubits: and a line of thirtie cubites did compasse it round about.

        New here? Desiring to be pleasing in the eyes of The Lord and His Followers?

        Then do as directed by our esteemed Pastors and head on over to the Introductions subforum and make your first post there, friend. Tell us what church you go to and what your favorite Bible verse is and how you came to find Jesus. Anything else you want to share with us about how Jesus has blessed you is welcomed too.

        Are you a hater of God that believes He is a morally bankrupt monster? Read Why, you ask, is God so angry? to see that it is in fact you that is the monster that mercilessly and infinitely torments God.

        Stop this relentless torturing of God and accept Jesus today!

          It makes no difference how much you earn; it's how much you give. God promises that those who give will have an abundance.

          Lk 6:38 38 Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.

          2 Cor 9:6-7 But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully. Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.

          Mal 3:10 Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.


          This is exactly what we see when we take a look at the world around us. No one who tithes and gives generously to God's work has ever suffered financial hardship.
          sigpicMt 21:42, 44 Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes . . . ? And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.

            Nice bit of Daily Bread you've shared there Brother Pim. Reminds me of a teaching I gave during Tithes & Offerings at last week's service. It's a little known fact that if all God's People gave their tenth on any given Sunday, and it be re-distributed by God's stewards, we would solve world poverty. Then the gospel would be preached in all the world. Then the end shall come. Even so come, Lord.

                I think there is a moral problem with clipping coupons. It gives people the impression they can get something for nothing, something they don't have to work for. The next step in their reasoning is a government handout.

                The best training in the world, either for children or uneducated adults, is to learn the culinary skills necessary for rice and beans. Rice and beans three times a day will keep one well fed and within budget.

                When people get tired of rice and beans, they will get a job. The logic of this is right there in front of us.
                Isaiah 24:1-3 Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty (2)...as the taker of usury, so with the giver of usury to him. (3) The land shall be utterly emptied, and utterly spoiled: for the LORD hath spoken his word.

                      Mr. Mayor, I hope the poor have learned how to live on a short stipend every day without complaining. I think one thing that will Make America Great Again is general humility, and no one needs a reminder to be humble like the poor. If they can just bite their tongues and be grateful once in a while, maybe Jesus will stop ignoring them and extend His Hand to attend to their needs, too.
                      Hello, my name is Mary. I hope to fellowship with you! That is, unless you don't listen to church authority (Deuteronomy 17:12); are a witch (Exodus 22:17); are a homosexual (Leviticus 20:13; Romans 1:24-32); or fortuneteller (Leviticus 20:27) or a snotty kid who hits their dad (Exodus 21:15); or curses their parents (Proverbs 20:20; Leviticus 20:9); an adulterer (Leviticus 20:10); a non-Christian (Exodus 22:19; Deuteronomy 13:7-12; Deuteronomy 17:2-5;Romans 1:24-32); an atheist (2 Chronicles 15:12-13); or false prophet (Zechariah 13:3); from the town of one who worships another, false god (Deuteronomy 13:13-19); were a non-virgin bride (Deuteronomy 22:20-21); or blasphemer (Leviticus 24:10-16), as God calls for your execution and will no doubt send you to Hell, and I have no interest developing a friendship with the Spiritually Walking Dead.
