    When a neighbor was in the hospital for a week, their small church took $200 from their funds to help them buy groceries.

        Exactly. But people have the idea that Jesus was against money. He wasn’t, in fact he lived off money given to him by “women of means,” and spoke about how one should give. He was against greed and using G*d like these charlatans. He didn’t tell regular people to give it all up, just greedy people, because they worshipped money, which is idolatry, adultery against the their marriage covenant to the father. And that’s the issue.
