I do wish the Jesus People, Army, or Fellowship, whichever they may be calling themselves at the moment, would read their Bible more thoroughly.

If they did they must have missed St Matthew (C.6 V.24)

To be found in the new ASB Jesus said: 'No servant can be a slave of two masters, for either he will hate the first and love the second, or he will be devoted to the first and think nothing of the second. You cannot serve God and money. Therefore, I bid you put away anxious thoughts about food and drink to keep you alive, and clothes to cover your body.' And then a bit further on, he says: 'look at the birds of the air, they do not sow and reap and store in barns, yet your heavenly father feeds them.'

I think this should tell you what we are meant to do. I am not a preacher, but reading this does make sense, I do believe.
