VI. Love For the Poor
2443
God blesses those who come to the aid of the poor and rebukes those who turn
away from them: “Give to him who begs from you, do not refuse him who would
borrow from you”; “you received without pay, give without
pay.”231 It is by what they have done for the poor that Jesus
Christ will recognize his chosen ones.232 When “the poor have the
good news preached to them,” it is the sign of Christ’s
presence.233
