Do you wish to live according to pure religion? the Bible says
in James 1:27 "Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the
fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from
the world."
Can we feed everyone in the world? YES! If we choose to. There hasn't been a
year in recent history in which the world has produced less food than it needed.
Food is a basic human right, yet some 800 million people globally suffer hunger
or malnutrition. The causes of hunger are complex, but the problem lies more in
the control, distribution and access to food than in production levels.
Ending hunger is possible. Nutrition and basic healthcare for everyone in the
world would cost just US$13 billion a year extra. Here in Australia, were I
live. US$61 billion is spent each year on gambling.
All wishing to live according to Biblical religion reading this should deeply consider
helping the starving and hurting children in this world we share, you can become a long term sponsor of a child or children, or give a
one off donation to help in feeding the hungry and clothing the poor. If
you are blessed, become a blessing to someone else.
Here are some verses from the Bible regarding this topic, they speak for them selves:
(Proverbs 19:17) He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the LORD; and that which he hath given will he pay him again.
(Proverbs 28:26-28) He that giveth unto the poor shall not lack: but he that
hideth his eyes shall have many a curse.
(James 2:15-16 KJV) "If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food, {16} And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit?"
(Luke 12:31) Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide purses for yourselves that will not wear out, a treasure in heaven that will not be exhausted, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys.
(Matthew 18:10) Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven.
(Matthew 25:31-46) When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory: And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats: And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left. Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat:
I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me. Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink? When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee? Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto
me. Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no
drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not. Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee? Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me. And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.
Acts 20:35 "I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to support the weak, and to

It is more blessed to give than to receive."
