Question

-homeless
-unemployed
-prostitute
-environment
-illiterate

Thanks in advance!:)

Answer 1

"Environment" people?

Anyway - volunteer at a shelter. Find an afterschool reading program and teach kids to read. Talk to the homeless and/or beggars on the street and find out why, exactly, they're there. There are no end of ways that you can help people. All of them, however, require work of one sort or another, which is why most people don't do it.

Answer 2

We can help them by showing how the Bible can help them cope with, or if possible, solve their problems.

Beggars,Homeless, unemployed: The Bible teaches that human governments provide many helpful things for those under their rule. Encourage these groups to apply for government aid; help to look for a home and to look for work, if they are able to do so. If one or both are not possible, teach them that God requires us, no matter where we live, to keep ourselves and our surroundings neat and clean. (John 13:10; Ecclesiastes 5:18; Romans 13:1-7)

prostitute: teach them the Bible's standard of morality, benefits of being moral and the consequences of behaving immorally. (Proverb 7:6-21, 22,23,27; Ephesians 4:17-24; Romans 12:2)

environment: Obey local laws regarding caring for the environment. It is a personal decision as to whether a Christian gives support to environmental causes, but they do not neglect their spiritual duties, they do not get involved in politics and they realize that no human organization can solve this problem totally. The true remedy is God's Kingdom. Teach others that we must pray for that Kingdom and show by how we live, that we want to be under it's rule. (Revelation 11:18: Isaiah 65:20-24; Matthew 6:10;33; 28:19,20; John 17:16)

illiterate: Tell them that the way to know how to please God is by reading his word. If they want to please him, they will want to learn how to read and write. Christians are to share their beliefs with others. If someone can't read, how will the share the Bible's teachings with others? (Joshua 1:8; Matthew 28:19,20; Deuteronomy 6:6,7)

Answer 3

Volunteer at your local mental health clinic, homeless shelter, hospital, or any charity working with any of those populations.
You can do a LOT more than you think you can.
You have a computer, so it won't be hard to find these organizations close to you. So, get out there and help.

Answer 4

First of all pray. Then any thing that you think you can do personally, do it. Write your congressman. Vote for people that you relay think can help. Don't pollute. Teach someone to read. Every great journey starts with the first step.



p.s. I am sorry but "outlaw393" that is about one of the most ridicules statements I have ever read.
