My Church Wants to Support "Refugee's"....I almost puked during the presentation.

Yet we know the enemy is hidden among them so by your logic we should take them all in even if that means leting in our enemies to kill us. So if there was bowl of M&Ms and in amongst them was poison that would kill you but you have know way of knowing which M&Ms are the poison would you still eat the M&Ms or pass on it?

Its not exactly like you have to explain this analogy to cultural Marxists.

They can sniff out a Christian conservative MM in a candy bowl, just by someone saying a phrase like, "hard work."

I will pray for you too, that your reading comprehension improves.

And you've been giving money to that church week after week? LOL

Vote with your wallet and stop supporting traitorous churches.

Vote with your wallet and either leave the church or stop donating. Hopefully others were disgusted to hear about it too.

Good job being a racist, prejudiced christian. Oh wait, thats all of the uneducated Christians. Keep the fear mongering up:)

Yep, but I'd go right to the source and let them know why I was leaving!

I assure my comprehension is just fine
just can't stand self-righteousness

Would you enjoy waking up every morning at 6am to the Muslim call to prayer being broadcast over a loudspeaker from your local neighborhood mosque? That is what "tolerance" will get you. It's already happening in America.

THANK YOU !!!!
Perhaps these people should take a few hundred of these poor men , refugees to their homes WITH THEIR LITTLE SONS AND DAUGHTERS IN THE NEXT ROOMS ...let's see how many of them actually put up or shut up!!!
They have NO DISCERNMENT WHATSOEVER, but say we are not christians and Jesus wouldn't want it...OBVIOUSLY they've NEVER cracked open a Bible, or they would KNOW what Jesus really says ABOUT SUCH HEATHENISTIC PEOPLE!!!!!

HE DIDN'T JUST SAY IT ONCE OR TWICE BUT MANY TIMES , HE SAID ...FROM SUCH TURN AWAY!!!! WHAT FELLOWSHIP HATH LIGHT WITH DARKNESS? JESUS ASKED.

Christians ARE NOT to have fellowship in ANY WAY, SHAPE OR FORM, with darkness, or those WHO DENY JESUS CHRIST!!
FROM SUCH, TURN AWAY!!!

Real christians KNOW what God's word says, they KNOW where the wickedness lies, and it lies with ALL THOSE WHO INSIST ON TRYING TO MAKE SYRIANS , OR DEVOUT MUSLIMS OF ANY KIND OUR FRIENDS!!!!! PERIOD. PERIOD. END OF THE DISCUSSION , Because your argument is mute!

That probably won't do much good. They have their agenda, and they know some won't like it, so they'll sadly bid you farewell, secretly happy that a subversive is gone.

In a huge organization (MEGA church) what you don't want is subversives. It gets in the way of management effectiveness.

It would be more useful, therefore, to be subversive among the members. Talk to them about it during coffee after the service or whenever you can meet them.

Good job being a racist, prejudiced christian. Oh wait, thats all of the uneducated Christians. Keep the fear mongering up:)

THIS

:theyreright:

I go to a mega church in my area and have been really, really happy there....until this morning.

As part of the "Christmas" offering they are asking for money to go to three causes. The second cause I would support because it is local and affects my community. The third cause however made me almost puke as they presented it this morning.

They had the founder of a non profit group speak about the Syrian crisis and how our church wants to help support this cause. They played pictures on the big screens of children, women crying holding dirty, hurt children, towns in total rubble, etc. They even talked about the story of the 3 year old boy who washed up on a shore dead. Yes, this story was debunked here on GLP and if memory serves me found that Alnon (or whatever the kids name was), was actually killed by his father and it was a propaganda shoot or something like that.

During the slide show questions and statements flooded the pictures shown like "Jesus was a refugee", "there was no room at the Inn when Jesus was born, don't be an inn keeper", etc. I literally almost vomited and had to control my emotions cause my soul was SCREAMING inside. I seriously almost stood up and started screaming about how blind our church leaders were being. My husband had to grab my wrist to stop me from blurting out obscenities.

Our pastor asked this man who is helping these "refugees" how we can know they are "safe". His response was that in all the history of refugees coming from syria starting in the 80's that NONE have committed acts of terrorism. He went on to say that many are Christians and the ones who are muslim have been visiting area churches wanting to know more about "Christianity".

I wanted to scream WAKE THE F%^$ UP!!!!! It's a sham! The refugees who are coming in are NOT Christian and they are NOT families. i'd venture that over 98% are young fighting age males. The numbers this man shared about how many have already come into California blew my mind. He said OVER 35,000 have already moved into Southern California this year ALONE!!!

I hate to say it but we are on the verge of being F%&^ed in the arse. Today totally blindsided me because my church has never supported a cause like this or gotten involved in something so controversial. The mood in the congregation changed, people were visibly uncomfortable. The man from the agency spoke about ISIS and their vetting process. He tried to reassure over 1000 people that their vetting process works.

I call BULLSHIT....Better yet I call PIG SHIT! I am SO totally sick over this I likely won't go back to my church. I am just totally blown away. People need to wake the frick up. These are NOT our friends. These are NOT people we can trust. There is NO vetting process that works. It's been proven and even reported in the media that our vetting process DOESN:T work.

As a Christian, I get it, we are suppose to help others. HOWEVER, I will NOT sacrifice my families safety for this cause. Jesus doesn't want us to welcome the enemy.

I gotta take my daughter to a birthday party so i'll be offline for awhile but wanted to vent and share this. Thanks for listening to my rant. XOXO

You need to go back to the M&M thread. If there is a bowl on the table with thousands of M&Ms and 8 of them will instantly kill you, will you eat any?

Stops them every time.

The most important one not to fear is God. Don't fear God, love God and be as close as possible to God.

And if God tells you that you have to support the government letting these people in to use our welfare and other systems, then I suppose you ought to listen to that. God doesn't tell me anything of the sort and encourages me to act in a way of total self-respect.

You can't love others properly until you really really love yourself.

Not very Christ-like of you, OP. Christ said those who clung to their lives would lose them. Your worry is about 'self'.

Nice rant OP. I would feel sick too.

Proverbs9:10
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.

Christ never had to deal with nut job muslims who strap bombs on their back. Is that clear enough for you, you stupid ass bogan.

I'm not sure if they're compassionate or in it for the money. I understand these churches are given a lot of federal funds when accepting refugees.

Jesus also did not have to deal with a bunch of Global pirates that are using a fake ass religion created in Yeshuas good name for their own global conquests and military adventurism. Funny how we bless our bombs before we go and maim thousands of women and kids that never hurt us, is that what Jesus would want ?
