Rare Bible Quote

I got another World Vision plea to help the needy with the following I-have-not-heard-of quote from the Bible:
“Anyone who has two shirts should share with the one who has none, and anyone who has food should do the same.”
Yes, this is an actual verse. Quiz: Did Jesus or Paul or any of the apostles say this?

Bet you didn't heard of it either. The answer is none of above. It was John. John the Baptist that is. See Luke 3:11.

He was the cousin of Jesus. Just why do we need this John the Baptist to "prepare the way"?... He has always been a good guy, yet he died in terrible death. And Jesus was totally silent for this matter. He got power to resurrect the dead right? He didn't bother nor even talk about John the Baptist after the baptism, I don't think.

I hope you have a helpful heart like John the Baptist too...
