Bible Question (short): What is Jesus saying about borrowers? |
Question (full): I was reading this passage with my fiance and it brought up some questions. We both have family members who are constantly in financial difficulties. Once they are helped back on their feet they are back in the hole again. Is Jesus telling us to continue to give and help these people? We are all for helping the truly needy but in the instance of some of the (for lack of a better term) "deadbeats" in our family we weren't sure how to take this passage. |
