The government was not established to delegate the responsibility of the people. The government was establish to protect the right of the people’s responsibility to represent what is necessary for themselves. The current Health Care plan absorbs the prerogative power of the individual and sucks it into the corrupt sponge of the Washington Bureaucrats and political power brokers.
THE LORD PROVIDES , SO WE CAN PROVIDE!!!!!! Lets get back to some of the basics of “W.W.J.D.” arent we to do unto others as we would have them do. what about: if you have done it to the lest of them , you done it to me. I cant possibly afford health care for someone when i cant even get it for my self. so I allow the lord to use me in other ways. WE NEED TO GET BACK TO THE WORD OF GOD,AND APPLY IT!! thank you for being true to my lord. God Bless!!!!!!!!
I was reading the OT lately, and when Israel rebelled, God sends in a foreign government to deal with the problem. Sometimes the problem is idolatry and other times a social issue like slavery or the mistreatment of “the people of the land” (non-Jewish minorities). Have you ever thought of the current health care bill as a judgment upon our inaction? As God acting in our time, in both judgment against us for not taking care of our poor and as “the second best way” of taking care of the sick?
The fight against health care reform reminds me of the days of Jeremiah, when the people of God, rather than repenting and correcting the problem, denied it existed and prepared to battle Babylon. The early church sold land and goods to take care of the needy (Acts 2:45) and the good Samaritan paid for the medical care of a complete stranger (Luke 10:25-37). If we followed these examples, God wouldn’t have to look to the government for someone to take care of the needy. (sorry for being long)
I have been fighting breast cancer since Oct. 2007. The cost of my care from surgeries, surgical infections, chemo, transportation and nursing care came to $1.5 million. The shots I had to take to keep my white blood cell count up were $3,289 each. I had never been sick before and some people said I was wasting money on premiums. But other people were sick and my being in the insurance pool helped them. Then it was my turn. As a Christian it is my duty to help others. God blessed me so I could.
I don’t know of any church that would give me $1.5 million for my breast cancer care. That is why I have health insurance. I prayed to God to heal me. Maybe he healed me through the medical care I received so I could be a witness to others to have compassion, pray for the sick, seek real-life solutions, help the poor, see each person as our brother or sister. We must open our hearts, minds and souls to the love Jesus gave us, so that we can give that love to our fellow man. God bless us.
I dont like the idea of this Healthcare reform and it breaks my heart because the church would be able to help more if Christians actually gave like they are called to. In 2007 only 5% of church goers actually tithed. 5%!! That’s it! Imagine what we could do if we all behaved as the body of Christ……
This is not just healthcare reform but a fundamental shift in personal freedom and responsibility to a governmental intrusion into what was our business, to make it theirs totalitarianism begins this way take away the right of the people to make their own choices and put it in the hands of those who “know better than us” to save us from our own choices. Be sure this is not just about healthcare but individual freedom, fix the system ok but leave it in our hands to choose what we need or dont
this is utopia when Jesus returns it will work but now show me a moral part of the american business and governmental structure and will eat it and i am sorry to tell you, the church is not far behind
