Many Christians don't realize the danger intrinsic in disregard the poor around them. The Lord really care on the poor so much that he in a real sense feels their pain. This implies that each time you disregard fellow in need, you are disregarding God Himself.

We understand that overlooking the poor the passageway to hell fire according Matthew 25:44-46. When someone come to you in hunger, do you give them food or ignore them?

When somebody is sick, do you visit to show love and pray with that person or do you simply approach your own business?

When you see somebody who need new cloth, do you hatred or abuse the fellow for looking haggard as opposed to giving out a portion of the cloth in your wardrobe that you haven't worn in a long while?

If overlooking individuals' need around you, be careful since you could actually be disregarding God Himself, and the outcome is eternity in hell.

If you make it a state of obligation to consistently provide for poor people, you will be honored plentifully for it. It is prevalently said that giver never lack.

Nobody who ignores the poor has a place in heaven, a rich young man went to see Jesus, and he revealed to Him that he had kept all Jewish laws from his childhood, however he actually felt like he was lacking something.

Jesus revealed to him that if he wanted to be perfect, he should sell all that he had and give the returns to poor people. This was excessively difficult for the rich man to do, so he went in sorrow.

Then Jesus turned to his disciples and told to them it is difficult for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of heaven and a poor man.

If you are rich and you see anything as too large or too important to let go of for sake of the poor, there's no place for you in kingdom of God.

Many individuals judge this rich young man, however they would do the very same thing he did if they were in his shoe. If that I may ask, do you really care enough on the destitute that you can sell all you need to address their needs?

Difficult as this may sound, it is reflective of the sort of heart that has a place in heaven.
