• God's Word teaches a very hard, disturbing truth. Those who neglect the poor and the oppressed are really not God's people at all—no matter how frequently they practice their religious rituals nor how orthodox are their creeds and confessions.

• It is not because food, clothes and property are inherently evil that Christians today must lower their standard of living. It is because others are starving. Creation is good. But the one who gave us this gorgeous token of his affection has asked us to share it with our sisters and brothers.

• If we fail to feed the needy, we do not have God's love, no matter what we say. Regardless of what we do or say at 11am in a Sunday morn, affluent people who neglect the poor are not the people of God.

• Advertisers regularly con us into believing that we genuinely need one luxury after another. We are convinced that we must keep up with or even go one better than our neighbors. So we buy another dress, sports jacket or sports car and thereby force up the standard of living. The ever more affluent standard of living is the god of twentieth century North America and the adman is its prophet.

• Es una abominación pecaminosa que una parte de los cristianos del mundo se enriquezca año tras año mientras nuestros hermanos y hermanas se duelen y sufren por falta de una atención sanitaria mínima, de una educación mínima e incluso -en algunos casos- de alimentos suficientes para escapar de la inanición.

• Cada vez hay más pruebas de que los programas de servicios religiosos suelen tener más éxito que otros programas a la hora de corregir problemas sociales. [Es un error] que el gobierno exija que las organizaciones religiosas sin ánimo de lucro destripen precisamente esa parte de su programa [financiado con dinero de los contribuyentes] que las hace tan eficaces.
