And again Alma commanded that the people of the church should impart of their substance, every one according to that which he had; if he have more abundantly he should impart more abundantly; and of him that had but little, but little should be required; and to him that had not should be given.
Sharing our abundance and supporting the poor is always a sign of the true faith. It is not only a commandment but a natural outgrowth of love for God. This seems to be one of the very first ways in which disciples organize themselves. It is a principle we should take seriously.
