- The wealthy are given opportunities to use their God-given resources to help people (1 Tim 6:18). They both come from God. Paul says the wealthy should not be arrogant or prideful in their riches. If they remember that God both gives and takes away, this will help them remain humble.

The existence of poor gives scope for the exercise of the graces of charity, benevolence, and self-denial; and such opportunities will never be wanting while the world lasts. Me ye have not always; i.e. in bodily presence. When he speaks of being with his Church always to the end, he is speaking of his Divine presence.

Jun 29, 2016 · It just so happens that in saying “The poor you will always have with you,” Jesus was quoting another well-known Biblical phrase—from a well-known passage of the Jewish Torah. Everyone hearing him back then would have caught his drift. Here’s the full original quote:
Oct 22, 2015 · In the passage where Jesus says “the poor are with you always,” Jesus is criticizing the disciples with this echo of Deuteronomy 15:11, where it is established that poverty is the result of society’s disobedience to God and of following the laws and commandments of empire.
Jul 15, 2016 · When Jesus tells His disciples “The poor you will always have with you,” it may seem like He is telling His disciples that caring for those in need is a secondary concern. Some may use this passage as justification for tight-fistedness, but Jesus’ message is actually the opposite.
Jan 4, 2022 · Jesus said the poor will always be with us (Matthew 26:11). There is no shame in being poor. Our attitude should be that of the writer in Proverbs who said, “Give me neither poverty nor riches, but give me only my daily bread” (Proverbs 30:8). The rich are generally portrayed negatively in the Bible.
Jun 25, 2019 · The Bible is equally as clear that while God owns everything, wealth isn’t guaranteed for everyone on earth. Jesus told his disciples that the poor would always be with them ( John 12:8 ). We can gather from his words that people are naturally going to struggle financially in this broken world.
There were many rich believers throughout Scripture: Abraham, Joseph, David, Daniel, Lydia, and Philemon. Having wealth is not a sin; in fact, wherever Christianity has gone, it often has led to wealth. People start to be more honest, hard-working, and disciplined—often leading to wealth.
