Today, maybe this week certainly before the end of the month, Republicans in Congress will take votes that could possibly ruin our democracy as we know it by holding Americans hostage again. The debt deficit, immigration , Snap, XL pipeline, VRA and maybe reproductive rights among many other things are being held hostage for the extortion of the Affordable Care Act. I am assuming most if not all know or should know that SCOTUS made a decision on ACA and that judgment has been ignored, disrespected and denied by folks like Senator Ted Cruz, who I believe is completely incompetent and unqualified to hold what we used to call a position of Public Service or Servant, though he and those voting to take away or demand stipulations for what used be considered Social Services to those in need. Not very Christian or Public Servant like
This morning, i turned my TuneIn Radio on to bill press …. his guest was Rev Wallace , who discussed among many things the misuse or misinterpretation of Matthew 25 and the need for folks to read learn and understand what Matthew 25:34- 40 really means … I am paraphrasing. If you do go to town halls etc. with Republican Politicians or their surrogates … take some time and consider
“As you did it to the least of these my brothers and sisters, you did it to me” (Matthew 25:40)
Have you heard about Republicans using or in my opinion misusing Matthew 25:34-40 from the New Testament?
Stop … and think about that. Ask yourself why and how could Republican members of Congress use the Bible for NO votes against the Farm Bill, food stamps or those in need due to the recession and our financial collapse that has NOT fully recovered yet … Ask yourself what part has the Republican Party of No misused Religion to make points against voting for improving the status of their fellow man lest we include President Barack Obama
Matthew 25:34-40 of the New Testament has always been interpreted by: Providing nutritional food to the hungry, clean water to the thirsty, clothing to the naked, affordable shelter to the homeless, medical care to the ill, and humanitarian supplies to prisoners.
How Christian is it to misuse abuse or misinterpret Matthew 25 to mean provide advice help but with some qualifiers beyond what is already asked for by HHS agencies all over the country…. People need help … a hand up not free stuff nor are they trying to get over like most if not all Republicans imply or state outright
