Message for Christian Conservatives Jeremiah 22:13 - 22:18
I was reading the old testament today and thought this passage applied to the G.O.P. who got their huge unjustified tax cuts and now seek to repeal HCR. Proof again the the Christian Right DOES NOT KNOW NOR FOLLOW SCRIPTURE.
Jeremiah 22:13 - 22:18
13 Woe to him who builds his house by unrighteousness,
and his upper rooms by injustice;
who makes his neighbors work for nothing,
and does not give them their wages;
14 who says, ‘I will build myself a spacious house
with large upper rooms’,
and who cuts out windows for it,
panelling it with cedar,
and painting it with vermilion.
15 Are you a king
because you compete in cedar?
Did not your father eat and drink
and do justice and righteousness?
Then it was well with him.
16 He judged the cause of the poor and needy;
then it was well.
Is not this to know me?
says the Lord.
17 But your eyes and heart
are only on your dishonest gain,
for shedding innocent blood,
and for practicing oppression and violence.
