    If he doesn’t believe in giving low income families a meager 40$ a month “welfare” then he should reject the saving Grace that is given from Jesus.

    The point of the Gospels of Jesus is that the we are saved ONLY because of the Grace of God, and NOT because of our good works. PERIOD.

    Nothing we do gets us the Grace of God. We can’t DO anything to deserve it. It is just given.

    Edit: add “Like welfare!” To the end. I forgot.

      Why is this a given? And if it is, why would that ever be a good thing? Sounds like a real prick move to me. All knowing God making humans irredeemable from the start, knowing everything that was going to come.

      No thanks.
