dosent it say in
Matthew 5
38"You have heard that it was said, 'Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.'[g] 39But I tell you, Do not resist an evil person. If someone strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also. 40And if someone wants to sue you and take your tunic, let him have your cloak as well. 41If someone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles. 42Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you.
so If i get this right if I ask or sue you then you should give me what I ask. Ok so I am asking money from the nice Christians on this website ;)

If you are so good at finding this part of the "Sermon on the Mount" why don't you read on and see what is in store for the "evil person". If you are asking you must consider your self an "evil person".

We must use faith with intelligence. That verse in the bible is talking about not fighting over money. Money is one of the least of worrys when it comes to getting into heaven. If someone was on the street in need of food, you should offer them what you have. But if you have less then what that person has how can you give?

1st of all you got it twisted. Don't play Christianity for your selfish needs, there are other ways to get money , ask your family 1st it might be safer or your friends,get a job. I am a christian but usually don't just hand out money to all who ask . are you homeless, deserted sick something most worthy of what you are asking. do you know there are homeless people who wont take a hand out ,food or money? for you to have made it to college money came from somewhere so I'ma assume you just wanted to test yourself . Ima let this ignorance go- you may learn from it.Peace!

Sorry you won't find old school Christians anymore. They all turned into the Church of the Republican Party, and give the money to the wealthy, or to their church which spends it on rent or salaries, and gives a small fraction to a charity, (I bet less than 10%)

Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day, teach him to fish and he'll eat for a lifetime.
