Re: Giving To The Poor
I dont recall anything off hand in the NT either, DFT. However, I have always liked this OT scripture. Matt Maddix quotes it often, rallying folks for homeless outreaches etc...
Prov. 19:17 He who has pity on the poor lends to the LORD, And He will pay back what he has given.
or....I think maybe its actually this one He always quotes:
Prov. 28:27 He who gives to the poor will lack nothing, but he who closes his eyes to them receives many curses.
