Being Christian towards poor people means trying to improve their lives and give them back some self-respect.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
There are people in the world who aren't necessarily Christians, but they're just naturally nice people who do a lot for other people. Those people will almost always be prosperous people.
Our life of poverty is as necessary as the work itself. Only in heaven will we see how much we owe to the poor for helping us to love God better because of them.
Since the Church is to be servant to the poor, it is our fault if that wealth is not channeled to help the poor in our world.
Jesus didn't say, 'Blessed are those who care for the poor.' He said, 'Blessed are we where we are poor, where we are broken.' It is there that God loves us deeply and pulls us into deeper communion with himself.
Christian life means sacrifice.
I think that whether someone is a Christian or not, the idea that a human life has dignity and intrinsic worth should be clear enough.
Believe it or not, Christianity is not about good people getting better. If anything, it is good news for bad people coping with their failure to be good.
A Christian is nothing but a sinful man who has put himself to school for Christ for the honest purpose of becoming better.
Poverty is from the devil and that God wants all Christians prosperous.
It is a sin to be poor.
