Christians must interact with their fellow humans and have fellowship with the poor and homeless, and those given the gr...ace to see realize that giving a sandwich or an article of much needed clothing, or money is an opportunity to minister to those hurting and lost on a much deeper spiritual level.
Those that wish to regulate the care of the homeless and leave it to the "pros" do not have those eyes to see, or for that matter ears to hear what God through Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit has said to his body of believers called "The Church"
And reconsider giving cash donations to those charities, especially those which suggest government regulations and permits in order to care for the homeless, and those that have no method of community transparency and accountability.
Love your neighbor, let no law or regulation be formed against this. Let no one criminalize and regulate the practicing of your faith and and religion.See More

I think we need to all work together to solve this. I don't think we should single out a group to be "anti" against, but at the same time, the homeless community needs to set standards for themselves if they would like to be respected.
ReplyDeleteI would say at the very least, keeping a clean living area and being respectful to other respectful citizens is required. I have personally been a little frightened when I declined to give money to a panhandler and he threatened me.
I know that is the exception, not the rule, but one bad experience will ruin the entire thing for certain people. We need to work together instead of just boycotting each other.
I'm sorry we all have pan-handling storys we could share.
ReplyDeleteIf you were threatened by one the police should have been
called on the spot.
That's your response to me saying we should all work together on this?
