@maggieschutte85 These people were horrible and they deserved what they got. What they did was wrong and they were rightly punished for it. #DrMTheo111 #JesusSocialJustice

@KellyMonahan3 He is always willing to help all those he can. We just need to come to him humbly and ask for his assistance. By keeping faith we serve him. #DrMTheo111 #JesusSocialJustice

[Jonah D Raith @jonah_raith]

@CalebSc76622687 Zacchaeus was willing to give up half his possessions to honor the Lord. This type of devotion and generosity is exactly what Jesus preaches. #DrMTheo111 #JesusSocialJustice

@lzheng0626 The widow receives the most praise because while she only gave a little, it mattered to her more than those who gave more but had much more wealth. #DrMTheo111 #JesusSocialJustice

[Jonah D Raith @jonah_raith]

@CalpinCj In this case the widow was strong and persistent in her faith. Which is why she was given justice. #DrMTheo111 #JesusSocialJustice

[Jonah D Raith @jonah_raith]

The widow who offered all she had to live on was praised by Jesus because even though she had almost nothing she still gave an offering. While those who had much also gave offerings, hers meant more because she has so little. #DrMTheo111 #JesusSocialJustice

@JackSimone14 @soucekr1 I think that this parable reminds us that we are not supposed to be perfect, but instead we are supposed to come to God and ask for forgiveness. #DrMTheo111 #JesusSocialJustice

[Jonah D Raith @jonah_raith]

@JackSimone14 In order to receive eternal life we must continue to act in accordance with the commandments, but even more so we must also take care of our neighbors as ourselves. #DrMTheo111 #JesusSocialJustice

[Jonah D Raith @jonah_raith]

@KatieVivacqua In being persistent with our prayers we will eventually receive justice. The widow was persistent and finally received the justice she deserved. #DrMTheo111 #JesusSocialJustice

[Jonah D Raith @jonah_raith]

@soucekr1 I think that it is important to note that if you humble yourself before God, you will be exalted before God, like the tax collector. #DrMTheo111 #JesusSocialJustice

[Jonah D Raith @jonah_raith]

@KellyMonahan3 Jesus shows us that through persistence of faith we will ultimately receive justice. #DrMTheo111 #JesusSocialJustice

[Jonah D Raith @jonah_raith]

In the parable of the rich ruler Jesus tells the ruler that in order to gain eternal life he must give up his wealth and distribute it to the poor. Jesus wants people to give to the poor out of the kindness of their hearts. #DrMTheo111 #JesusSocialJustice

[Jonah D Raith @jonah_raith]

@KellyMonahan3 In the Gospel of Luke often times the wealthy person in a particular parable is in fact the wrong doer in the parable. Just as in this parable the rich man does wrong by committing a sin of omission. #DrMTheo111 #JesusSocialJustice

[Jonah D Raith @jonah_raith]

@mattdepreytheo In this parable Jesus reminds us about previous Jewish teachings, teachings that tell us to care for the weakest among us and never to turn a blind eye. #DrMTheo111 #JesusSocialJustice

[Jonah D Raith @jonah_raith]

@oliviacheung02 As we look around us we often ignore those in need of help. It is our responsibility to look after our fellow man and help them in times of need. #DrMTheo111 #JesusSocialJustice

[Jonah D Raith @jonah_raith]

@EmmaDurbin6 The rich man did not help his fellow man, as he would have been taught from Jewish texts. Jesus tells this parable to reiterate these teachings. #DrMTheo111 #JesusSocialJustice

[Jonah D Raith @jonah_raith]

@Cpbenson2020 The rich man's sin was one of omission, he turned a blind eye to Lazarus' need and was subsequently punished for it. #DrMTheo111 #JesusSocialJustice

[Jonah D Raith @jonah_raith]

When Jesus heals the ten lepers he shows that he is willing to bring outcasts back to society. Jesus then shows compassion when he blesses the Samaritan leper, as he was the only one who stayed #DrMTheo111 #JesusSocialJustice

[Jonah D Raith @jonah_raith]

@Caitlyn89691687 Jesus shows us that he is willing to help us return to faith however we have to want his help. And once we return it is a joyful thing worthy of celebration. #DrMTheo111 #JesusSocialJustice

[Jonah D Raith @jonah_raith]

@KellyMonahan3 In this parable the woman also takes responsibility for he actions in regard to losing the coin. We must also take responsibility for when we stray from God. #DrMTheo111 #JesusSocialJustice
