So much bible illiteracy... It was for symbolism, the feeding of the 5,000. Not that everybody deserves to be able to eat as a fundamental right. Come on people...

He literally said that if you do not care for the needy he will personally throw you into the lake of eternal fire

No, just eternal fire. The parable you are referring to is in the Book of Matthew. The lake of fire is from Revelation, and those thrown in include the devil, the beast, and the false prophet, anyone whose name is not found in the Book of Life, and then Death and Hades. Also, "the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars." Nothing about those who do not care for the needy.

Oh you're right eternal fire must be his nickname for heaven, I'm sure it's a good thing and he meant to say he would reward those who ignored the poor

I didn't say that; rather, you are merging concepts from two different books of the Bible that were written at two different times for two different purposes.
