We are reminded of the exceptional expression of kindhearted religion in James 1:27:
Some say this is glaringly simple to follow Jesus' call:
Is it simply a matter of; those who are spiritually dead to tend to burying the dead? Would this pertain predominately to those who head up the long-train of lukewarm-to-cold Churches as the Spirit himself would have already identified through Jesus, 'those outside of the body'(1Cor 5:12) from every fold?
I am quite sure, ''widows'' occupy both criteria of the above spiritualities. How do you handle the vulnerability of verse-60 today?
Pure and undefiled religion before the God and Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their tribulation; to keep oneself unstained from the world.
Some say this is glaringly simple to follow Jesus' call:
Then He said to another, “Follow Me.”
But he said, “Lord, let me first go and bury my father.”
Jesus said to him, “Let the dead bury their own dead, but you go and preach the kingdom of God.” (Luke 9:59,60)
