In those days some prophets came down from Jerusalem to Antioch.One of them, named Agabus, stood up and predicted by the Spirit that there would be a severe famine throughout the Roman world. This took place during the reign of Claudius.Each of the disciples, according to his ability, determined to send relief to the brothers and sisters who lived in Judea.They did this, sending it to the elders by means of Barnabas and Saul.

We want you to know, brothers and sisters, about the grace of God that was given to the churches of Macedonia:During a severe trial brought about by affliction, their abundant joy and their extreme poverty overflowed in a wealth of generosity on their part.I can testify that, according to their ability and even beyond their ability, of their own accord,they begged us earnestly for the privilege of sharing in the ministry to the saints,and not just as we had hoped. Instead, they gave themselves first to the Lord and then to us by God’s will.So we urged Titus that just as he had begun, so he should also complete among you this act of grace.Now as you excel in everything— in faith, speech, knowledge, and in all diligence, and in your love for us— excel also in this act of grace.I am not saying this as a command. Rather, by means of the diligence of others, I am testing the genuineness of your love.For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ: Though he was rich, for your sake he became poor, so that by his poverty you might become rich.

Let the one who is taught the word share all his good things with the teacher.Don’t be deceived: God is not mocked. For whatever a person sows he will also reap,because the one who sows to his flesh will reap destruction from the flesh, but the one who sows to the Spirit will reap eternal life from the Spirit.Let us not get tired of doing good, for we will reap at the proper time if we don’t give up.Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us work for the good of all, especially for those who belong to the household of faith.

The one who mocks the poor insults his Maker, and one who rejoices over calamity will not go unpunished.

“ And the King will answer them,‘ Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’

During the night Paul had a vision in which a Macedonian man was standing and pleading with him,“ Cross over to Macedonia and help us!”

The one who despises his neighbor sins, but whoever shows kindness to the poor will be happy.

Brothers and sisters, you know the household of Stephanas: They are the firstfruits of Achaia and have devoted themselves to serving the saints. I urge you

The one who oppresses the poor person insults his Maker, but one who is kind to the needy honors him.

On the contrary, when you host a banquet, invite those who are poor, maimed, lame, or blind.

Then looking up at his disciples, he said: Blessed are you who are poor, because the kingdom of God is yours.

While Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews made a united attack against Paul and brought him to the tribunal.

You always have the poor with you, but you do not always have me.

For I know your eagerness, and I boast about you to the Macedonians,“ Achaia has been ready since last year,” and your zeal has stirred up most of them.

It was annulled on that day, and so the oppressed of the flock who were watching me knew that it was the word of the LORD.

So I shepherded the flock intended for slaughter, the oppressed of the flock. I took two staffs, calling one Favor and the other Union, and I shepherded the flock.

For the ministry of this service is not only supplying the needs of the saints but is also overflowing in many expressions of thanks to God.

because I hear of your love for all the saints and the faith that you have in the Lord Jesus.

Listen, my dear brothers and sisters: Didn’t God choose the poor in this world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom that he has promised to those who love him?Yet you have dishonored the poor. Don’t the rich oppress you and drag you into court?
