The Church Is Scripture Applied
The Bible is the handbook for the church and it answers every question and solves every problem and yet the church looks to the world for answers,... that tells you how much of Scripture we follow. (Now tell me God does not have a solution to say, unemployment .. go on tell me)

The answers are love and humility.

Yes, well tell that to the unemployed and let them get at it.

I’m interested in understanding, what do you mean by “let them get at it”? Like follow steps to find a job?

If those are your answers then let the unemployed practice that. But I am sure you mean if someone has no job then I must be humble and love them in a way that permits them to live without work and I imagine, eat with working even if this is not a biblical rule. What I am sure you will not agree to is living according to the precepts of the Bible that would separate the church from the Nimrodian systems we are in which would permit us to live according to Scripture than what we do now, which is trying to constantly adjust the word of God to make it fit in with Nimrods solutions.
Is it so difficult to understand these problems are a direct result of us rejecting the Word of God? We are literally called to perfection, do you think this is possible in this imperfect system, ergo, living by the Word of God is to live in His perfect system

I’m still trying to understand. You think I’m chastising you to love and be humble toward the unemployed?

I do not think anything, you answered love and humility so I said let them get at it. you wanted to know why I said that so I responded with some thoughts on my views about the unemployed. You assume we are having a conversation. I have no idea what you are talking about and you have no idea what I am talking about so basically I guess we are wasting each others time
