" If you know someone who doesn’t have any clothes or food, you shouldn’t just say, 'I hope all goes well for you. I hope you will be warm and have plenty to eat.' What good is it to say this, unless you do something to help?"
James 2: 15-16 (CEV)
There's a great deal of kindness and charity in our world which is expressed by good wishes; perhaps even good intentions. After all, not all of us have the means of doing something to help the poor and the needy, so we give a kind word. Or sympathy.
However, how does that change if we do have the means?
Or do we simply choose not to help?
Or do we simply choose not to help?
James 2:26 (CEV)
"Anyone who doesn’t breathe is dead, and faith that doesn’t do anything is just as dead!"
