From Psalm 39:6 New Living Translation ( 1996 )
We are merely moving shadows,
and all our busy rushing ends in nothing.
We heap up wealth for someone else to spend.
New Living Translation ( 2004 ) Second Edition.
We heap up wealth not knowing who will spend it
There are many hard working Christians who pay their taxes, avoid excesses such as drink and gambling.
Christians who send their children to church based schools, (Catholic or Cof E in the UK) .
We go to churches which are attended by "People like us" which might be less attractive to people who are not like us, and which might be less than welcoming to "less desirable people".
Many churches are nor welcoming to people who do not think like us.
As far back as 150 years ago the Christian leaders of the day spent the money of their congregations on competitive architectural structures to separate themselves from "others" who were held in serious disregard.
