Care

To Care for someone may include giving them what they need but seldom what they want.

Charity must "strengthen" the poor^[7] or it is not charity because it is not love.

To sacrifice is simply one factor that is essential in the process of loving your neighbor as your self. Forgiveness is another element of love.

The "legal charity" of the Pharisees and Rome and even the modern welfare state weakened the poor and degenerates the masses not only because it is void of the daily choice to personally sacrifice in love but it does not include the active choice of forgiveness which also includes humility.

Without forgiving others we cannot be forgiven and we will remain in the chains of our own making.

The provision

Care is defined as "the provision of what is necessary for the health, welfare, maintenance, and protection of someone or something."

It is also defined as "serious attention or consideration applied to doing something correctly or to avoid damage or risk." The Pharisees we accused of failing to attend to the weightier matters.

As a verb it is said to mean to "feel concern or interest; attach importance to something." or "look after and provide for the needs of."

In the Bible both Jesus and Moses who preached the government of God say we are to love one another which is way of saying we must care for one another.

But were not just love those who loved us but "love our neighbor as ourself".^[8] We were to love if not tolerate the rights of the the stranger^[9] and even care for or love our enemy.^[10]

Kinds of care

In Genesis 23:6 the Hittites recognising Abraham as "a godly prince" (נְשִׂיא אֱלֹהִים‎ naśi elohim).

Someone who was a "Nasi" was a humble and charitable servant who recognized his errors and [[sin]. He might rule over things but not over people. And he is ruled, not by people nor his passions and greed but by the love of God.^[11]

A common Greek word meaning care is epimeleomai^[12] from the Greek word melo.^[13]

It is first used in Matthew 22:16 "And they sent out unto him their disciples with the Herodians, saying, Master, we know that thou art true, and teachest the way of God in truth, neither carest^[13] thou for any man: for thou regardest^[14] not the person of men."

In Mark 4:19 a different word is also translated care:

And the cares^[2] of this world, and the deceitfulness^[3] of riches^[4], and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word^[5], and it becometh unfruitful.^[6]

The kind of Care that the Bible teaches includes we can see in Altars of Clay and stone which were systems of social welfare created by Abraham and Moses to provide a social safety net by the practice of Pure Religion through faith, hope, and charity. They were not creating mindless religious rituals to promote bond of delf righteousness and vanity. It was essential that these systems were funded by freewill offerings which rooted in voluntary choice^[15] and love. The people who are of the world are often in conflict with that early Christian system because they have chosen the sacrifice of fools which we see in Ecclesiastes 5. Those systems include covetous practices^[16] and are run by the men who call themselves benefactors and the Fathers of the earth who exercise authority through the welfare State and its systems of legal charity that are funded by force, fear, and result in forms of fealty through debt.

Killing care

Modern governments also suggest that they care for people, because they provide benefits. But the means and the methods of these modern governments produce a contrary effect to the published intent?

When the method includes those who exercise authority one over the other and they choose to take and take and take from one group to provide for another do they set in motion a cause which effect the mind and heart of the members of society?

Will the means of force of neighbor by consent to those who exercise authority one over the other justify the rise of tyranny since every man desires the benefits, dainties and rewards of government by biting one another through the teeth of those governments they have chosen for themselves?

Rome began to do this in the days of Polybius when people developed an appetite for benefits at the expense of their neighbor. Julius Caesar expounded upon the means and the method at the expense of their neighbor Gaul and others instead of making the means and method of those round about them to include the sacrifice of the Red Heifer.

The social safety net of Moses, John the Baptist, and Christ was meant to create care for one another in society by the practice of fervent charity which is love. The sacrifice of the Red Heifer was a practice designed in hope of winning the love and respect, even support, of people in neighboring nations.

Who cares

Do modern governments actually care?

Do they need to care about the people?

Or does this care and provision provided by force actually create a risk of damage to the fabric and character of society by a means and method that feeds power and degenerates heart beat of care?

Free societies are naturally held together by social virtues creating natural social bonds that hold the righteous together with the courage of conviction which is issue of faith through the blood of sacrifice. Without that sacrifice the social bonds of the perfect law of liberty starve from neglect.

The alternative becomes the bands of social compacts. With out the nurturing of trust and faith through sacrifice doubt and fear flourish. The power and authority that is transferred, given and accepted by governments through the consent to Contracts, Covenants, and Constitutions will the take away the choice of the individual man, converting him to "a member, an instrument, a thing.”^[15]

Where care begins

Free societies begin in the Family and the care we learn in the family unit should become the way of the people from generation to generation. If anything diminishes that process of care and love within the family it will influence the growth and maturity of the next generation.

Parents should be fruitful and multiply which requires sacrifice and loving care for their children but the children should also honor their father and mother which means to provide for them as they mature.

We are to care or love our neighbor as ourselves so their should be a means and a method to care for your neighbor as much as you care for your self. This was the stories of Abraham, Moses, all the prophets, John the Baptist and Jesus. It is the message of the Gospel of the Kingdom, the method of the practice of Pure Religion and the only means directed and allowed by Christ to His Church.

Where care dies

The ritual of the Cremation of Care at the Bohemian Grove in California. The play they put on to entertain their minions was called by some "To kill care". Polybius warned the people what happens in the welfare State when the masses abandon fervent charity and replace it with legal charity.
**What is a sin to the righteous is a means to the foolish and a tactic of the wicked.**

The Cremation of Care is an annual theatrical production written, produced and performed by and for members of the Bohemian Club, and staged at the Bohemian Grove near Monte Rio, California at a small artificial lake amid a private old-growth grove of Redwood trees.

The dramatic performance is presented on the first night of the annual gathering as an allegorical banishing of worldly cares for the club members.

The secretive nature of these gatherings and the Bohemian Club along with the high ranking political power of its members suggests that there is a corruption of power within the broad spectrum of members. Alex Jones, who characterized the Cremation of Care as a ritualistic shedding of conscience and empathy, and an "abuse of power", saw a powerful conspiracy undermining personal liberties.^[17] ^[18]

“The real destroyers of the liberties of the people is he who spreads among them bounties, donations, and benefits.” Plutarch

If the governments of the world from Cain to Nimrod and Saul to Caesar have been corrupted by the power they obtain from the wantonness of the people's then those desires and wantonness will cremate care. f With the repentant prayers of those who truly love Jesus and The Way of Christ the Holy Spirit will raise care from the dead.

Christ came to raise the dead from the grave that all might be saved.

↑ Care is deemed as being too dull, in the eyes of the world's greedy leaders. As care is banished (shoved aside and killed), the greedy leader walks on in his lust. He pretends to care, so that his true motive (lust for power and monetary gain) remains concealed. Meanwhile, those 'under his care' (citizens, church members or club members) are confused, as they witness what appears to be care, while at the same time discovering their leader does not deeply care about this group's members, and he selfishly protects his wallet. For the most part, he hates whatever may cause him to suffer pain or loss. Real care is willing to suffer so that matters of real importance (weightier matters) are successfully accomplished.

[18] Care is deemed as being too dull, in the eyes of the world's greedy leaders. As care is banished (shoved aside and killed), the greedy leader walks on in his lust. He pretends to care, so that his true motive (lust for power and monetary gain) remains concealed. Meanwhile, those 'under his care' (citizens, church members or club members) are confused, as they witness what appears to be care, while at the same time discovering their leader does not deeply care about this group's members, and he selfishly protects his wallet. For the most part, he hates whatever may cause him to suffer pain or loss. Real care is willing to suffer so that matters of real importance (weightier matters) are successfully accomplished.
