Going "Beyond Charity"
Should Christian cash be given to terrorists?
Monday, Oct. 02, 1978
Over the past eight years the World Council of Churches has given $2,640,000 to groups that oppose " racism." More than half went to black organizations in southern Africa that have used guerrilla violence in trying to overthrow white minority regimes. The revolutionary grants program began when the W.C.C. general secretary was Eugene Carson Blake, a liberal U.S. Presbyterian with a flair for politics. It was controversial from the start, but the W.C.C. easily lined up enough backing from its 293 Protestant and Orthodox member denominations to fend off critics.

I'm sure you will be able to find this in your local library or you can subscribe using the link above. Time has archived articles from 1923forwardonthe above site.There was a huge hoopla in Tulsa from the mainline church members that were none to happy to hear this news!. The National Council of Churches is directly connected to the World Council of Churches. The roots of these organizations are deeply embedded in socialist ideology and liberation theology. I'm sure there are many good well meaning Christians within these organizations but many individuals and churches have withdrawn when they come to understand the agenda of those in key positions. It's a great study if anyone cares to take the time.I'll post more as I have time.
Remember the Lord Jesus Christ was a carpenter by trade outside the religious establishment of His time and for that very reason they feared Him and conspired with the Roman government to have Him killed.Religious affliation is no more a ticket to righteousness than blowing yourself up on a bus.
