“Let the one who is strong take care of the weak; and let the weak show due respect to the strong. Let the wealthy provide what is needed for the poor, and let the poor offer thanks to God, since he has given him someone to supply his need. Let the one who is wise show forth wisdom not through words but through good deeds. Let the one who is humble not testify to himself but permit another to testify on his behalf. Let the one who is pure in the flesh not act arrogantly, knowing that another has provided him with his self-restraint.” 1 Clement 38.2.
Clement, Bishop of Rome (c. 96), urged the Christians in Corinth to live out their faith in words and deeds. Note the wealthy with more than enough were to share with those who did not have enough.
