Accept It
On earth as it is in heaven.
There will always be poor people in the land. Therefore I command you to be openhanded toward your fellow Israelites who are poor and needy in your land.
— Deuteronomy 15:11
— Deuteronomy 15:11
Jesus also said the poor would always be with us. So, is God saying, Just accept it and move on? World systems make poor people. Like Jesus, we accept the truth of that, but we don't accept Sin, its source. Instead, we resist and rectify all that we can until Jesus returns and finally sets everything right.
