I may have written
about this before but I can't remember for sure. We see a lot of charitable organizations,
both religious and other wise, state that their goal is to wipe out poverty.
Mark 14:7(NKJV)
7For you have the poor with you
always, and whenever you wish you may do them good; but Me you do not
have always.
The phrase tilting
at windmills comes to mind. Jesus has
flat out said that it will never happen.
Now don't get me
wrong, I'm not against helping the poor.
I think we should do that. I just
don't think it is helpful to set goals that Jesus has said will never be
achieved.
Just a thought.
