It has been
widely
known that several major Protestant denominations have been financing
the National and World Council of Churches for decades. It is further
known that the N.C.C. and W.C.C. have been funding communist causes all
over the world. In fact, church support for socialist/communist causes
was one reason many thousands of Christians left those denominations
and flocked to more conservative churches such as those found in the
Southern Baptist Convention. Now we learn that the S.B.C. may also be
using church contributions to fund communist-dominated organizations
such as the United Nations and W.C.C.
According to a
recent
report in the Agape Press, “The Southern Baptist Convention
continues to fund an organization that promotes the one-world church
movement. The S.B.C. provides a substantial part of the budget for the
Baptist World Alliance, which has ties to the United Nations and the
World Council of Churches.”
The report
quotes
former S.B.C. president Paige Patterson as saying the S.B.C. has
reduced its contributions to the B.W.A. in the last few years. He also
says the B.W.A. “is not involved in New Age alliances, unless
one considers the U.N. to be a New Age organization.”
Surely, Rev.
Patterson
knows that the U.N. is a communist-inspired and communist-controlled
organization. Surely, he knows that the United Nations is the
world’s chief promoter of global government and one-world
religion. How could the good men who lead the Southern Baptist
Convention allow offerings from its churches to be given to such a
hellish organization?
Need I remind
Rev.
Patterson that the goals of the U.N. include disarming every citizen in
the United States? That it seeks to abolish our Declaration of
Independence? That it is the chief sponsor of international abortion
providers?
That it seeks to
destroy our national sovereignty? That Marxists, who have a lengthy
history of severe persecution against Christians and Jews, dominate it?
I am confident
that
most of the good pastors and people within the S.B.C. have no idea that
their offerings are being siphoned for such unscriptural purposes.
Furthermore, I am confident that when news of this misuse of church
offerings reaches the majority of those fine people, they will demand
that their leaders immediately cease this pathetic practice –
and the sooner the better. The devil’s work gets enough of
our money via government taxation; it doesn’t need any help
from the people who are supposed to be on the Lord’s side!
