Jesus told one man to sell everything and give it to the poor. The man had justified himself by daring to tell Jesus that he had followed perfectly all of the ten commandments all of his life. Jesus pointed out in the sermon on the mount that such a feat for man is impossible. he was showing the man what separated the man from God. Jesus had rich friends such as Martha and Mary and Lazerus. They had him often to their house and he didnt tell them to give up their wealth. What Jesus wants is to be more important to a person than anything, and He knew that possessions could easily get in the way of that.
Jesus didn't renounce violence. He flipped tables and whipped money-changers. He told his disciples to carry their swords, and if they didn't have a sword, to sell their coat and buy one.

I pointed out in my book Kissing Fish: christianity for people who don't like christianity (in the chapter on the Bible) how evangelical and fundamentalist Christians tend to give priority to Paul's letters (including the ones not written by him) and John, whereas mainline Protestant and progressive Christians tend to give priority to the Gospels - particularly the synoptic ones. Each tribe has their own "canon within the canon." That said, recent scholarship has pointed out that Paul was highly on board with Jesus' message and that it's a distortion to interpret Paul as being primarily about theology or doctrine, he was speaking politically in his rhetoric. See "The Real Paul" by Bernard Brandon Scott Roger Wolsey, author, "Kissing Fish: christianity for people who don't like christianity"
The church I go to does stress tithing and helping people, and we do. If people gave 90 percent of their wealth then they would be a burden to others and couldn't survive on their income
Repent of your sins and put your faith in Jesus like you would a parachute if you where going to jump out of an airplane, you can't just look at the parachute you have to put it on . . .Put on the Lord Jesus Christ and be saved . . .then meet the one that saved you for all eternity . . . Hodos!
Apostate leaders are here 2 Timothy 4:3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
Not man can call Jesus Lord except through the Holy Spirit. All works done in the flesh is good for nothing, it is the Spirit that gives life. The whole Bible is Jesus, not just the red letters, but only through the Holy Spirit can you know that.
Tony Campolo seems to be making a good case against the need for organized religion, the church, or even faith. Secular, sustainable philanthropy is demonstrably the most effective way to achieve the goal of the elimination of poverty.
***** Social Justice ignores the issue that the Gospel of Christ addresses. Jesus Christ preached the wrath of God rests on us until we accept Yeshua ie Jesus Christ as lord and trust that he took our sin in his flesh on the cross to satisfy God's justice against the wicked behavior man is born into. No good works this man builds after he tears the works religion philosophy will deal with this. And Jesus comes in as lord and then we accept his doctrine of holiness his way not social justice religion of a righteousness attainment theory. And these philanthropist's have their own motive. Man looks at the outward appearance and God looks at the heart.
Bonnie Bell " Jesus Christ as lord and trust that he took our sin in his flesh on the cross to satisfy God's justice against the wicked behavior man is born into" What sin have you committed, Bonnie Bell? If the fault is yours, why should your Jesus take your deserved punishment for you? If the sin is not yours, but the fault of your ancestors, why should you be punished? How can three day's death for an innocent person, followed by an eternity of blissful life, appease the wrath of your God against the wickedness of all mankind? Your account of your God's justice makes no sense. It sounds crazy, and immoral; the sort of thing primitive, uncivilized tribal chiefs make up. Many immoral tribal religions believe in the effectiveness of blood sacrifice of innocent people.
Yeshua gospel of Repentance, Faith and Love shown through obedience. Beware of Paul look at his conversion Acts 9 what do you not see and see? No repentance his vision of Jesus didn’t give him a choose. Took his free will. Now look at all the prophets and there backgrounds and how they were chosen.
We must be careful when quoting scripture. This gentleman says here in all men shall know you are my disciples if you keep my (commandments). The scripture actually says, love one another.
I think Tony has been preaching for 50 some years. I bet he’s pretty familiar with Scripture. The Beatitudes is about the Kingdom of Heaven. The perfect prayer, The Lord’s Prayer , includes the Kingdom of Heaven. The parable of not worrying is concerned with seeing his kingdom of heaven.
I live below the poverty level. Thankful for what I have. I’m comfortable. “Poor” is something that only affects the Body,flesh. Rich in Spirit . Life is life Paul said “I’m Content is whatever state I’m in.”
1) The Epistles of Paul and the Gospels do not contradict each other. Paul taught nothing but Jesus and 2) Mother Teresa is considered more of a "saint" than say John Piper or Eric Ludy in the modern world. Why? Scripturally, we can argue that the latter are doing the harder work because they are dealing with spiritually poverty. I understand what Tony is saying. But let's not lose the deeper issue of spiritual slavery in our fervor to physically serve the poor (which is also good).
This guy talking has no clue that even the red letter words of jesus has DISPENSATIONS , and certain things he said was not for us , or for this time ..... TALK ABOUT IGNORANCE!!!!!!!!!!!! (Sell all you have is not for today or for us , dont let these sharlatans fool you)
This showed me no contrast between the gospel of grace n the gospel of the kingdom ! There are major differences .all that was talked about was how the poor could be helped .but no mention of the fact that the red letters are not our doctrine for today we are not isreal .grace was a dispensational secret mystery till acts9 no mention of that! How about Jesus wasn’t talking to us gentiles he wasn’t sent to gentiles but to the lost sheep of isreal .how about the danger in following the red letters today . Then incompatibility of grace and red letter doctrine ! James 2:24 vs eph 2 :8-9. Sw rom 4 it explains ....bdw Paul’s sent for us gentiles Jesus is sent for isreal red letters won’t tell u that. Eph 3 please read

The LAW OF THE LORD is perfect converting the soul.

Tithing is for OT Jews - your preacher is fleecing you, it has no place in the NT
@@thespanielinquisition7167 exactly but most Christians don't know that as they know no history just what they are told.
Tithing was traditional in Jesus’ time, and there’s certainly nothing wrong with it. And it’s no indication that anyone is being “fleeced”.
Jesus said "you will always have the poor among you?"
Yeah because the stingy aholes will always be among you......lol

I think the point of blessed being the merciful is focused on the murderer, not the Judge or Jury.

Nowhere do I hear in this video a case against faith. It's all about faith.

The first issue would be defining “poor”
I live below the poverty level. Thankful for what I have. I’m comfortable. “Poor” is something that only affects the Body,flesh. Rich in Spirit . Life is life Paul said “I’m Content is whatever state I’m in.”
But faith without works is dead. You have to have both.
That’s why your house is built on sand and not the rock!!!!!!
He had a heart for the poor but he was not a competent bible teacher. R.I.P.
