Christian Welfare
The straying by the Church
from the Gospel of the Kingdom and the directives of Christ has
brought the whole world into ignorance, entangling the people again
into bondage.
“Thus the Church is, both by
commission and by omission, author of the welfare state...Government
has undertaken to do what conscience, tutored out of the Scriptures,
demands but fails, through the Church, entirely to achieve.”
Of course the government of the
world did not undertake at all what conscience demands. The
Church was the social welfare system of Christ to feed and care for
His flock, which hears His voice. Its ministers were the benefactors
of the people, by the free will offering given by the people, for the
people seeking His kingdom. Those souls repentant of the sin of
ruling over their neighbor and brother came together seeking the
righteousness of God in pure religion.
The world had its impure
religion that was run by men who called themselves benefactors, but
were not. The benefits they offered were provided through the
extracted offerings of the people or by debt and surety of the
people.
It was also stated that “The
Church brought about the welfare state in two ways:..the Church...
demands charity and justice for the poor.” That is also not true. Even Jesus said:
“For ye have the poor with you
always, and whensoever ye will ye may do them good:...” Mark
14:7
And the Church said:
“For even when we were with you,
this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he
eat.” 2 Thessalonians 3:10
The word of God demands that we
should not covet anything that is our neighbor’s and that we
should not be like the men who call themselves benefactors but who
exercise authority. And the Corban of the Pharisees made the word of God to none effect.
