    The first great difficulty here is, "If I give $1000,000 to the poor, I will be making them rich: if I make them rich, they will not go to heaven.

    The second is that Jesus said that the poor are always with us. Because Jesus knew these things, then no matter what we do, there will always be poor people - so giving money seems to be quite useless.

    Instead, we send Bibles to starving Africans so that they may see Heaven.

      It is far better for a small child to die in it's mothers arms 'saved' than to live a full healthy life as unsaved trash. We are only a short time on Earth but we are an eternity basking in the glory of God or burning in everlasting torment.

        Your all f uckng blind!

        Giving money to Jesus is a method of showing your devotion.
        How will this help anyone. God doesnt exist numb nuts. And even if he did he aint here, and hes F UCKING GOD FOR CHRIST SAKE - WHY THE HELL WOULD HE NEED MONEY???

        God is not after getting the millions of dollars, he wants the $1.00 from the man that only has $2.00
        So, let me get this straight, god wants a 50% tax. Thats basically what youre saying isnt it. Hes like the government maybe? The government uses tax to control the masses? They lie? They cheat? They enforce stupid laws?

        Anybody seeing coincidence here?

          You seem very angry - True Christians aren't angry. They understand.

          God doesn't need money, He just likes to see that you are not ruled by money. 1Tm:6:10: For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. I am rich enough to tell you that money doesn't matter.

          God is not like Government. He is interested in your eternal soul not your life in this Vale of Tears. You do what he says, and you go to heaven - simple.

          Malachi 3:8 Will a man rob God? yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes & offerings.

            Mark 14:1 After two days was the feast of the passover, and of unleavened bread: and the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might take him by craft, and put him to death. 2 But they said, Not on the feast day, lest there be an uproar of the people.
            3 And being in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as he sat at meat, there came a woman having an alabaster box of ointment of spikenard very precious; and she brake the box, and poured it on his head.
            4 And there were some that had indignation within themselves, and said, Why was this waste of the ointment made?
            5 For it might have been sold for more than three hundred pence, and have been given to the poor. And they murmured against her.
            6 And Jesus said, Let her alone; why trouble ye her? she hath wrought a good work on me.
            7 For ye have the poor with you always, and whensoever ye will ye may do them good: but me ye have not always.


            Jesus liked a bit of luxury and having money spent on Him even if it meant the poor went without. I think He would love to see a nice big Church and the poor tithing.

              Why are yoy so angry? The True Christians here are argumenting from the scripture and all you can retort is by using profanity. God gave us free will, you can follow His devine rule, donate the (at least) 50% to buy Bilbes for starving Africans or not, It's your choice whether you want to believe or not, that is the glorious, loving fairness of the Lord.
              But don't come complaining to anyone when you are burning in Hell.

                Friend, it is not a tax. It is a gift to God. Just like when your kindly grand-ma-ma gives you half of the money for her heart medicine so you can go buy crack. You did not tax her at all. It was a 'gift'.
                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.

                  This isn't a sodomite pickup joint. No man here is interested in "coming at you".



                  Meanwhile, donating money to the Lord's Work is what pays for the printing of Bibles, and supports missionaries in faraway lands.

                  Once Romney-Ryan take the White House and Republicans control the House and Senate, we will stop giving food aid to foreign countries and instead give them Bibles and missionaries.

                  I understand that there is a plan to change food stamps to include Scripture admonishing the users for their sloth, as well.
                  Bible boring? Nonsense!

                    It will help the person who does the giving.

                    You've done a good job describing Government, but God doesn't lie or enforce stupid laws. God has given us the Truth through the Holy KJV Bible, the laws he enforces are righteous laws.
                    Leviticus 13:40 And the man whose hair is fallen off his head, he is bald; yet is he clean.
