Almost 50,000 homeless veterans

I won't speak to what politicians are or are not doing on this issue. It is indeed shameful. But moreso for the Body of Christ than it is for The President or any other politician. Makes me wonder again why my church will try to collect $400,000.00 to give to the Lottie Moon Fund to help spend 80,000 per year to send a missionary into the 10/40 window in which folks live off an average $2 per day, but we've got folks sleeping in the woods and under bridges throughout Georgia?

I know some of the folks have mental issues and you probably couldn't get them off the streets if you wanted to. But we definitely have the resources to do more about the things that Christ says we should be doing as opposed to 80K per year to support one missionary. Just my opinion.

 

We can stop trying to amass wealth upon which to "retire" upon and pass on to our kids and grandkids. And I've been to a lot of different countries. Very few of them did I require the equivalent of 80K a year to do anything. Certainly not in the 10/40 window. I think the IMB strategy is VERY wrong. But that's another discussion. Hopefully David Platt will start addressing that.

Hank, I don't have a problem with missionaries. I have a problem with designating on average 80k per year per missionary to keep them in the field. If they had to raise their own support, I guarantee it wouldn't cost that much.

I'm putting together some ideas that I might just pass on to the IMB once I've properly verbalized the ideas.

 

All this while cutting the VA budget, leaving veterans to die waiting for help.

 

That is an astounding number. It's so sad to see the people that served our country suffer through these things. Many homeless veterans that I've met in the past have suffered from mental instability and were pretty incapable of taking care of themselves. It hurts my heart to see people go through this without any sort of help.

 

He doesn't care Hank! And as a vet, it angers me! He would rather allow illegals to pour across out border, unchecked to take much needed jobs, plus bringing in refugees!' We need to take care of vets and Americans before we even begin to think about lending our resources, within our borders, to others that should stay where they are!

Let me conclude the above rant by saying, WE NEED TO ANY AND ALL AMERICANS PRIOR TO HELPING THOSE WHO ILLEGALLY COME HERE LOOKING FOR A BETTER LIFE. A better life is not providing endless entitlements to Americans to have them sit on the sidelines and watch as non Americans here ILLEGALLY or here because of refugee status, take what few jobs are left.

The President, elected officials and big business need to think America and Americans FIRST!!!

 

When every homeless person in this country has a roof over their head, when every hungry child has good food to eat, when the physical needs of all our citizens have been met, then , and only then, should we think about harboring "refugees" with those among them that want all of us dead.
Especially able bodied men who should be fight for their own country instead of running. Families only. No single men between the ages of 17 and 50 need apply.


"But if anyone does not provide for his own, and especially for those of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever."

"Anyone who hates a brother or sister is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life residing in him."

 

Obama cares nothing for our vets. In fact I am convinced he hates all military personnel.

 

His hate for veterans and America seems to be part of the new Republican narrative that says if you're Black or disagree with them, you couldn't possibly love America.

Just ask Ben Stein.

 

You don't understand because you don't think like the elite that run the country and formulate foreign policy Hank.

Here's how they think . . .
