Chris.
The Bible tells us that we should be willing to share in the
sufferings of our Brothers and Sisters in Christ. This kind of sharing is not just
pity and Prayer, it is also, in some ways, meant to be practical. Yes, the
Church needs to reach out evangelistically to the un-churched and destitute
poor and many Churches are doing that in some way, some with Wisdom and others
not. Here however Apostle Paul is writing about Brothers and Sisters in Christ.
How can we help them wherever they are?
