How God Views the Poor

Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, when Pontius Pilate was governor of Judea, and Herod was tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip was tetrarch of the region of Ituraea and Trachonitis, and Lysanias was tetrarch of Abilene, in the high prietshood of Annas and Caiaphas, the Word of God came to John, the son of Zacharias, in the wilderness (Luke 3:1-2 NASB). (God didn't send His Word to the high and mighty, but to a lowly person.) Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the Kingdom of God (Luke 6:20 NASB). For consider your calling, brethren, that there were not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble; but God has chosen the foolish things of the world to shame the wise, and God has chosen he weak things of the world to shame the things which are strong, and the base things of the world and the despised God has chosen, and the things that are not, so that He may nullify the things that are,so that no man boast before God (1 Corinthians 1:26-29). Listen, my beloved brethren; did not God choose the poor of th world to be rich in faith and heirs of the Kingdom which He promised to those who love Him (James 2:5)?
