If our Christianity causes us to look at how a poor person spends their welfare check with inherent suspicion all while we look at how the exorbitantly rich accumulate mass amounts of wealth with inherent admiration, we need a grand reversal.

Amen

Rev. Benjamin Cremer

Beware of any Christian movement that demands the government be an instrument of God's wrath but never a source of God's mercy, generosity, or comapssion.
