JEREMIAH 51:

THE WAY OF ESCAPING THE THEOLOGY OF BABYLON IS TO HAVE A HEART FOR THE POOR. WE ALL NEED TO BE CHALLENGED AS JAMES SAID TO NOT DESPISE THE POOR. FOR THAT IS THE VERY HEART OF GOD. REMEMBER PETER AND PAUL DID NOT HAVE SILVER AND GOLD, *THEY WERE POOR* BUT STILL, THEY WENT INTO THE TEMPLE, HAVING OFFERED THE LAME MAN THE GIFT OF THE SON'S DELIVERANCE & HEALING. HOW OFTEN DID THAT POOR, LAME MAN LAY AT THE TEMPLE GATE?

MAY THE GIFT OF GOD'S KINDNESS BE UPON US THIS CHRISTMAS, AND EVERYDAY, SO THAT WE MAY BE KIND & GENEROUS TO THOSE WHO ARE NAKED, POOR, CONFUSED, ARROGANT, THE MISGUIDED, INDEED TO ALL MEN, TO ALL WOMEN, TO ALL CHILDREN, THAT THE KINDNESS OF THE LORD MAY BE UPON OUR HEARTS, OUR MINDS, OUR LIPS, THIS CHRISTMAS, THE VERY LAW OF KINDNESS WRITTEN UPON THE HEARTS, IN JESUS' NAME.
