Paul continues with a series of arguments that form the foundation of all service to the poor, or the ‘option for the poor,’ as we would say today. The first is the example of Christ, whose generosity establishes and gives meaning to Christian charity and solidarity. Later, from another perspective, the Apostle emphasizes the same point: achieving equality and eradicating poverty. In the Acts of the Apostles, it is noted that there were no destitutes among them (Acts 4:34). Is Paul proposing the same ‘utopia’? Without a doubt. It is a Christian utopia being realized through concrete actions, such as the Corinthians’ financial contributions.
