Helping the homeless must NEVER take precedence over preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ . . . “And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing ... Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth” (1st Corinthians 13:3,6). The word “charity” here means LOVE. 1st Corinthians 13:6 tells us that genuine Biblical LOVE rejoices in THE TRUTH.
Sadly, many apostate religious groups today such as the Salvation Army have compromised their convictions, spending most of their time helping the needy at the expense of preaching the truth. What does it matter if we feed the hungry, cloth the naked and shelter the homeless if they die and go to Hell because we failed to preach the Gospel to them? I wouldn't give you a dime for any ministry that is not aggressively preaching the Gospel and placing the truth of God's Word at the forefront of their ministerial efforts. This is critically important.

…Biblical Jesus Christ himself would disown you for such blasphemous and anti-Christian statements, DJS.
I mean it, remember how Jesus went all “old testament” on the asses of the Money Lenders who desecrated his temples? I like to believe he’d do the same to you, you hypocricial pharisee.

Sometimes a quote comes along on FSTDT that I kinda wish I could “WTF” more than once, and this is one of those times.
And…I’ve actually BEEN homeless for a while, in the past. One of the shelters I stayed at a few different times was ran by the Christian church that was literally around the corner from it. Yeah, you maybe couldn’t forget that it was a Christian thing, but they never really pushed it on anybody. The worst thing that they imposed on anybody was that if you didn’t attend the church service on Sunday, you didn’t to get to come back to the shelter right after.
Though, anyway, I suspect Davey would say that that church wasn’t “real Christian” enough. There were “non-denominational” and I was pretty sure they didn’t use the “KJV” that he loves so much.
“Helping the homeless must NEVER take precedence over preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ .”
And there you go,Davey. You have found or interpreted God’s permission to be a selfish, outspoken, dick.
You’ve got GOD telling you not to help anyone in a meaningful way, as long as you make sure they know you know it’s the KJV or NOTHING.
1Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. 2And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.

John himself says that words without charity are worthless. Simply telling people about Yahweh without sharing His love and care renders the Gospel message as meaningless noise.
But since Davey is in no way a real Christian, he can only preach a false Gospel that costs him nothing. He's that selfish.
And, once again, he quotes Paul. He is not a christian, he is a paulian. That and a fugitive pedophile.
That which you’re using - the Digital Computer - developed by an Atheist: Alan Turing.
It’s not just the obvious reason why the venerable Quantum Mechanic would say ‘Stop using computers’, Davey-boy.
The fact you’re using something that is the product of someone you would define as a ‘Sinner’: thus you’re doubly Hellbound. Another reason: Matthew 19:21.
Every second you’re not selling your computer and donating the money to a homeless shelter isn’t just the most obvious reason why you’ll never be perfect, thus follow your J-boy, David J. Pedo .
When did we see you hungry and not feed you, or thirsty and not give you drink?…
Depart from me, you evildoers, I never knew you.
There’s one more way to interpret “that which you have done for the least among you, you have done for me” and that’s to say when you preach at the “least among you” you’re preaching to Jesus himself. So when you correct Jesus himself in this parable, tell Jesus he doesn’t deserve anyone’s love even his own until YOU certify it on behalf of the God you claim to follow, tell him every bad thing you do to him is because his situation must mean he is personally morally deficient and so being below your station means that makes him worthy of hatred for existing. What’s that telling your “Lord and Saviour” other than your false piety, the thing he hated the synagogue for, is an entirely transactional affair using the name of what you’re stepping on simply as branding like a failing casino?

Question: search how many people come to worship at Salvation Army churches and compare it to yours.
Simply put, there’s a reason why Christian missionaries often operated hospitals and schools: ten to one that plenty of natives converted not because of complicated theological courses but because they saw their good deeds and wanted to sign for the beliefs which grew such good fruits.
Well, this satanist over here did not preach shit when she had a couple of homeless folks around the parking lot last fall. I grabbed them whatever good stuff we had in our fridge and helped them to use our parkings outlets to cook it for themselves, we smoked some joints together and without any prosletyzing I was happy to simply help some fellows in a bad pinch. Looks like I’m a better christian than you, Stewie…
