The Church was never supposed to be a conservative social club.
It is one thing to serve the needs of the congregation.
It is another thing to serve the community.
Jesus was not rich.
He did not go on overseas holidays twice a year.
He did not have a beach house.
And he did not have shares in blue-ribbon stocks.
The Gospel was supposed to be good news for the poor.*
Not a bonanza for the rich.
Sell your possessions and give the money to the poor.*
Then follow Jesus.
[*Luke 4:18]
