戏笑穷人的,是辱没造他的主;幸灾乐祸的,必不免受罚(箴言17:5)
平安弟兄姊妹们!上帝是按照自己的形象造出我们每一个人,当我们因任何事,就如贫穷,而嘲笑任何人时,就是在侮辱上帝。上帝说“总会有穷人存在”【申命记15:11 原来那地上的穷人永不断绝。所以我吩咐你说:“总要向你地上困苦穷乏的弟兄(基督徒)松开手。”马太福音26:11 常有穷人和你们同在……】,所以我们要帮助他们,而不是嘲笑他们(主耶稣在约翰福音15:12里对我们说:“你们要彼此相爱,像我爱你们一样,这就是我的命令”)
He who mocks the poor reproaches his MAKER
Pro. 17:5 – He who mocks the poor reproaches his MAKER; He who is glad at calamity will not go unpunished.
Shalom Brothers n Sisters,
GOD made us all in HIS image, and to mock anyone for something like poverty is to mock GOD. GOD said the poor would always exist (Deut. 15:11 - There will always be poor people in the land. Therefore I command you to be openhanded toward your fellow Israelites [Christians] who are poor and needy in your land. Matt. 26:11 - The poor you will always have with you,. . . . ); we are to help them, not mock them.(JESUS told us in John 15:12 - My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you).
