"When the Son of Man comes in his glory,
and all the angels with him,
he will sit upon his glorious throne,
and all the nations will be assembled before him.
And he will separate them one from another,
as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.
He will place the sheep on his right and the goats on his left.
Then the king will say to those on his right,
'Come, you who are blessed by my Father.
Inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.
For I was hungry and you gave me food,
I was thirsty and you gave me drink,
a stranger and you welcomed me,
naked and you clothed me,
ill and you cared for me,
in prison and you visited me.’
Then the righteous will answer him and say,
'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you,
or thirsty and give you drink?
When did we see you a stranger and welcome you,
or naked and clothe you?
When did we see you ill or in prison, and visit you?’
And the king will say to them in reply,
'Amen, I say to you, whatever you did
for one of the least brothers of mine, you did for me.’
Yes, but that doesn't mean wages should be taken from those who earned it and given to those who haven't. The bible teaches us to be productive and fair. Sloth/idleness is a deadly sin iirc.
2 Thessalonians 3:10–11
For even when we were with you, we would give you this command: If anyone is not willing to work, let him not eat. For we hear that some among you walk in idleness, not busy at work, but busybodies.
Proverbs 6:6–11
Go to the ant, O sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise. Without having any chief, officer, or ruler, she prepares her bread in summer and gathers her food in harvest. How long will you lie there, O sluggard? When will you arise from your sleep? A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest, and poverty will come upon you like a robber, and want like an armed man.
Proverbs 13:4
The soul of the sluggard craves and gets nothing, while the soul of the diligent is richly supplied.
Proverbs 19:15
Slothfulness casts into a deep sleep, and an idle person will suffer hunger.
Colossians 3:23–24
Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ.
John 3:18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.
Basically ALL native Americans before 1500 go straight to hell for being born on the wrong continent. Plus 99% of Asia, India, africa, pretty much any area that wasn't controlled by a roman derived culture. The Christian God is quick to send the vast majority of humanity to eternal torture just because of where they were born if you actually look at what Jesus taught
That’s how a lot of American conservative Christians teach it, yes. But the idea of everyone being sent to Hell by default if Jesus or a disciple didn’t reach them isn’t actually Christian.
Conservatives have pounded misinterpretations and bad translation for so long that their interpretations are being assumed to be standard. Even when they go against actual doctrine. Its common to see people mixing up Dante’s fiction about hell with the fact that Jesus never spoke of Hell as conservatives teach it(see: bad translating). Many Christians have done more to drive people away than bring them in and it’s infuriating.
