Bible Question (short): request for money is a false teacher? |
Question (full): Should I give to a traveling preacher who asks for charity? I recall from my youth that there is a passage in the bible that says that we should take into our house a fellow christian in need... BUT we should shun/cast aside anyone who asks for charity in return for sermon/religious service. I have been looking for the reference that addresses this. I cannot recall if the wording was that people who ask for money are false teachers or something to that effect. If someone can point me to the verse, I will be greatly appreciated. |
