Who's Hungry

No one really, just a few American Children, I mean after all what is 12.9 million children. They live in America after all, where we take care of our own ... not.

Ok, you don't buy that 12.9 million children live in poverty ... don't take my word for it then ... ask the census bureau.

Oh, that word, destitution, most people believe that in order to actually qualify to be poverty stricken they must be destitute. I mean if Mom and Dad have a cell phone how can they be destitute. That same Mom and Dad probably don't have a home phone, because you can get a cell phone account for half the cost of a land line with twice the services. The majority of those same Mom's and Dad's really do have jobs, you know the ones that pay so well, "minimum" wage, and need one for contact information, how are they supposed to call 911 in the middle of the night if they don't have a phone. I know go out the balcony and scream for help. See if that works for you, how many times have you heard a strange, loud noise and ignored it.

Oh I read this too, some of those poor people own a TV, yeah that's reason we shouldn't help. We teased them in grade school for not having one, we admonish them as adults for owning one, go team.

Yes I am bantering, Yes I hope your tired of hearing me, I want to be the most frustrating guy in America. Maybe if your frustrated enough you will do something to shut me up, and the only thing that will shut me up is to end the nonsense. I will shove Matthew 25:35 down your throat till you are sick of it.

I know that God wants no one to suffer from hunger, I believe that by His word I live in prosperity, I know that by His word my neighbor is my responsibility, that I am my brothers keeper.

You either believe that Jesus died on the cross for your sins or you believe that He was executed for being a traitor to Israel.

I believe Jesus died for me, and so I believe that I am responsible to follow all of His teachings, not just the one about keeping the sabbath day holy.

Prayer is the wrong application for Matthew 25:35, it is set of marching orders, along with the great commision.
