When a person loses something or is having trouble with something Christians are to help solve the problem. This means Christians are not to keep the money they find on the ground if the person who lost it can be discovered.
Likewise, people broken down upon the side of the road should have a line of Christians behind them offering to help them back onto the road.
God commands His people not to refuse being involved in helping people. There is no limitation upon the types of people either – whether black or white, rich or poor, old or young all are to be engaged if they need help.
Jesus, Who is God visible, reiterated this command when He told us we must love our neighbor as ourselves. His example of this command in action was the now famous story of the Samaritan man helping the robbed and beaten victim whom he found on the side of the road.
Helping others can be costly in time and treasure but the Christian serves a God Who supplies all of our needs according to His riches.
Christians are not to observe their fellow man in need and ignore him but are commanded by God to help people in need.
In this way people will experience God’s love personally and so be drawn to Him for their own eternal salvation.
