For those who try to practice spiritual blackmail



Ran across this the other day.  I think it is a useful verse to use against those who like to practice spiritual blackmail.  As an example I have two clients who are brother and sister.  The brother spends money like a drunken sailor and then when his kids need help he goes to the sister and tries to guilt her into providing that help.

Well Scripture tells us that he is the one who is guilty of not fulfilling his role in Scripture, not her.

1 Timothy 5:8(NKJV)
But if anyone does not provide for his own, and especially for those of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.
