Do you know of the 300 verses in the Bible that address the poor and social justice. Most of them warn against wealth, particularly when it is withheld from the needy.
In fact, throughout the Bible we read stories of Gods displeasure with entire nations that do not care for the poor. Amos predicted that the northern kingdom of Israel would be destroyed in the midst of a time of prosperity and economic growth, in part because of its neglect of the poor. He saw that the rich trample the head of the poor into the dust of the earth (2:7). He criticized the lifestyle of the rich, which was built on the oppression of the poor (6:1-7), and was particularly dismayed that the poor had no hope because the rich bribed the judges (5:10-15).
The destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah had as much to do with neglect of the poor as it did with sexual immorality. In Ezekiel 16 God says, Behold this was the guilt of your sister Sodom: she and her daughters had pride, surfeit of food, and prosperous ease, but did not aid the poor and needy
When it comes time for Jesus to judge the nations, the gospels reveal that judgment will be based on treatment of the least of these-the hungry, the imprisoned, the thirsty, the naked.
