I could not believe that people truly thought the listing on Craigslist (free internet want ads) was true. Are we so desperate for stuff that we would go and do such a thing here in NY?
Martin Luther has some words for us in the explanation to the 7th commandment, "Thou shall not steal"
We are to fear and love God, so that we will neither take our neighbors' money or property, nor acquire it by fraud or by selling them poorly made products, but will help them improve and protect their property and career.
What would you do if you saw a crowd of people coming up to your neighbor's house and carrying off household goods?
Me, I'd call the police and go confront the people. May the Lord show us a better way to love our neighbors as we love ourselves.
