Pope Francis SLAMS Lazy Obama-Voters in a BIG WAY! (MUST SEE)
In his latest message, Pope Francis explained to the world the value of hard work and supporting the common good. He rejected the type of freeloading and mooching that lazy Obama voters on welfare take part in.
Pope Francis quoted Saint Paul, and opined “anyone unwilling to work should not eat.” He went onto explain that the highest praise anyone could receive is to be called a “serious, honest person.”
Why? Because it means you are part of the community and aren’t living off the hard work of others.
Work, he noted, “is needed to support one’s family, raise children and ensure a decent life to loved ones.” This habit of hard work, he added, is learned in the home, from one’s parents who support their family and in this way contribute to the common good.
Christians can find a great example of industriousness in the life of Jesus himself, Francis said. In the Gospel, “the Holy Family of Nazareth appears as a working family, and Jesus himself is called a ‘carpenter’s son’ or even ‘the carpenter.’”
Saint Paul’s injunction that people who don’t want to work shouldn’t eat is a “good recipe for losing weight,” he quipped.
Paul’s denunciation of idleness, Francis continued, “refers explicitly to a false spiritualism of some who lived off the backs of their brothers and sisters while ‘doing nothing.’” In the Christian outlook, a commitment of hard work is not opposed to a deep spiritual life, Francis said, referencing the example of Saint Benedict who taught that “prayer and work can and should be found together in harmony.”
“A lack of work is bad for the spirit,” the Pope said, just as a lack of prayer detracts from practical activity.
