You like to assume with nothing to back up your assumption.
I assumed nothing. Note my use of the word "seem."
What did Jesus say if someone asks you for a clock?
Luke 6:29-30. To him to strikes you on the one cheek, offer the other also. And from him who takes away your cloak, do not withhold your tunic either. Give to everyone who asks of you. And from him to takes away your goods do not ask them back.
Yes, well, you are taking a very shallow view of this verse for one who is quick to criticize others of doing so. A bit...hypocritical, I think.
This verse is part of a long series of instructions and commands Christ gave
to his disciples who were the first and primary representatives of Christ and the Christian faith to the world. As such, they bore unique burdens that no other believers have borne - one of which was to present a peaceful response to the fierce persecution they would face as Christ's first emissaries and establishers of the Early Church. Christ's disciples were not to rise up in political revolt against the Romans, or foment social chaos by urging slaves to throw off their masters, but to set an example of peaceableness that would preserve the Church from even more aggressive persecution. Christ's words, then, to his disciples in the passage you cite were not and are not prescriptive for all believer in all times and circumstances.
We can replace material things.
Did I say that material things could not be replaced? No, I asked you why you would put the interests of one who had broken into your home illegally before the interests of your family.
We are to follow God's will, not the world. You must like all of the things you own but they are of this world. Don't lose heaven for material things.
Of course I like the things I own. I would not own them if I did not. God's will entails you protecting and supplying for your family. How do you do that, exactly, while allowing strangers to break into your home and rob you?
I have faith in God, not man.
This is a facile and deflective response. It is one thing to trust God in circumstances over which you have no control, but quite another to purposely act such that God must make up by divine supply for your carelessness and foolish presumption upon His power.
I thought that you read scripture. If so, you would know that you completely misused that verse. Read more and better.
This is a response that says nothing, really. Why don't you show how I "misused the verse" instead of just asserting that I did. And "Read more and better" has all the argumentative value of "Says you!"
No, I didn't.
Jesus had sheep which he cared for and he allowed many of those brethren to be killed.
You're kidding, right? Those "sheep" were not defenseless children living in his home, under his direct protection and supply. And Christ's prime interest was the eternal, heavenly destination of his "sheep," not their temporal circumstances. The members of God's family chose their membership in it while a child does not choose the family into which s/he is born. You see, then, that there are some important fundamental differences between circumstances that you're illegitimately trying to make parallel.
Maybe you should study scripture far more than you seem to have.
Right back at you, Yarddog.
