North Dakota Representative Cramer: "If anyone is not willing to work, let him not eat." Even children and elders?
In the book of Matthew, chapter 25, verses 34-36, it says:
"Then the King will say to those on his right, 'Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me."
When Republican North Dakota Representative Kevin Cramer was confronted about the Republican House's recent bill which would cut spending in the federal food stamp program, Cramer decided to respond with a different scripture:
"2 Thessalonians 3:10 English Standard Version (ESV) For even when we were with you, we would give you this command: If anyone is not willing to work, let him not eat."
Reports show that 55% of food stamp recipients are either children or elders and that 41% of the remaining 45% work. So is he just telling that other 4% to get a job or starve to death or is he telling that 4% along with the 55% of children and elders to either get a job or starve to death? In either scenario, Mr. Cramer, I have just one question to ask - what would Jesus do?
