Back in March when things were getting pretty bad, a decision
was made to allow Samaritans Purse to set up a field hospital in Central Park
New York City. This makes sense, it is an organization that readily has the equipment
and manpower. They respond to all sorts of disasters and emergencies. They are
certainly qualified to do so. They also love the Lord and they remain committed
to the gospel. So, all those tents and support staff, along with the doctors
and nurses doing so much good. But none of that matters because they do not go
along with the ideologies of the LBQT (and whatever letters they are using
today) they are hate mongers. This week saw protests of many kinds, but also
one that included some people standing outside the field hospital with sings
that read, “Help not hate”.
Franklin Graham is quoted saying, “We do not make
distinctions about an individual's religion, race, sexual orientation, or
economic status," he stated. "We certainly do not discriminate, and
we have a decades-long track record that confirms just that."
A banner in front of one of the support trailers stated
this, “Stop the Hate”.
We just live in sad times, and the way Samaritans Purse responded
just makes me support them that much more. It just goes to the bigger picture
of how intolerable this world is of the gospel and Christians who stick to
their principles. Honestly, this just makes me sad.
