Christian responsibility to poor 06/13/19 (Thu) 04:01:38 89a500 No.6168

What is a Christian's responsibility to the poor?

Does Christianity mandate a welfare state

Are Christians obligated to help the poor however they can

Christians are obligated to be charitable. A welfare state is counter to this, it isn't charity because it's confiscatory by definition.

I would say no, not "however you can". You have an obligation to provide for your wife before a vagrant, and you have the moral obligation against enabling the addicts on the street by aiding them in ways that keep them there.
