I have some struggle understanding why "migrants of New York" are suddenly not New Yorkers. They are inhabitants of New York, so they are New Yorkers and the turkeys were made for them then, so what is the issue?
Especially considering that immigrants are statistically more likely to be struggling than people long established in the country, so it seems pretty logical that they would end up taking them.
The turkeys were for the white people. That’s the quiet part he’s not saying.
So uh … the migrants were just gonna other them so it’s easy to remove them from the struggling New Yorkers group?
Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.
Give to those who ask, and don't refuse those who wish to borrow from you.
In all things I have shown you that by working hard in this way we must help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he himself said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”
Just wanted to add, am I the only one seeing a little irony to the fact that people are upset about migrants at Thanksgiving? After what the original Thanksgiving migrants did to the original inhabitants of New York it seems as if there is a joke here that I can't quite put together.
Beware of practicing your righteousness before other people in order to be seen by them, for then you will have no reward from your Father who is in heaven. “Thus, when you give to the needy, sound no trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may be praised by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.
Whoever is generous to the poor lends to the Lord, and he will repay him for his deed.
I just want to shout out a big Amen to prettybunnys posts.
If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.
But if anyone has the world's goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God's love abide in him?
