The Imaginative Conservative: Christians Give Alms
Almsgiving, praised in the Catechism as a form of charity, was largely absent in ancient pagan cultures, where giving to the poor was not seen as virtuous. Christianity and Judaism introduced the concept, emphasizing mercy and the indiscriminate aid of the impoverished, contrasting with the self-serving motivations of ancient givers.
The practice of almsgiving is rooted in the belief that mercy should be shown without expectation of reward, reflecting God's generosity. It is a call to prioritize the needs of the poor, particularly those within one's community, while seeking divine rather than human approval for acts of charity.
