Can we Really be Christian if we Don't Help the Poor?

We were blessed when God showed up in our SonDay AM service again today! Our topic was caring for the poor and without any undue planning of different sections, everything from songs to comments fit together like a well orchestrated symphony- God was leading things.

During our worship, Holy Spirit began to move and as we went into prayer, many of us were already moving with him. After singing about asking God to convict us, Debbie stood and spoke with anointing about our need to be convicted for our lack of sincerity in our faith. Tears flowed freely as the altars were lined.

When people began moving back to their seats, we moved on and leaned about the kind of Christianity God expects of his children- to help the poor. The question that was left on our hearts was: "Can we really be Christian if we don't help the poor?"

It's a good question that deserves a lot of thought. What do you think?
