Poll: Large number of
Protestant pastors fear refugee resettlement plans, Posted by Ann Corcoran on March 7, 2016
Two major
federal contractors, World Relief and World Vision, paid for a poll
in January and were probably not thrilled to learn that 44% of pastors surveyed
have “a sense of fear about global refugees coming to the United States.”
World Relief*** and World Vision are both quasi-government
agencies. World Relief received just short of $300 million from government
grants and sub-grants since 2008, while World Vision gobbled up nearly $900
million in the same time period. Go to USASpending.gov for the compilations.
Tell your
pastors that World Relief is NOT saving Christians of the Middle East, but is
bringing Syrian Sunni Muslims to your towns and are paid by you, the taxpayer,
to do that!
They probably paid for this poll on your dime
so they would have a feel for how much more propaganda they need to get out to
your local churches! Maddening isn’t it!
A new survey
indicated that many Christian churches in the United States are more than
willing to lend a helping hand on refugees but at the same time are afraid to
risk engaging them.
The
telephone survey of about 1, 000 Protestant pastors conducted by LifeWay
Research showed that 44 percent of church congregations have “a sense of fear
about global refugees coming to the United States.” By contrast,
only 27 percent of the church congregations have gotten themselves involved in
helping the refugees.
Although 98
percent of the pastors said they are “at least somewhat informed about the
Syrian refugee crisis,” just 35 percent have addressed the issue from the
pulpit.
The survey
showed that the respondents mostly agree that “Christians have a responsibility
to care sacrificially for the refugees and foreigners” with more than eight in
10 (86 percent) agreeing on the matter, according to the report.
Help overseas
is the sensible and truly charitable answer for those who want to help Syrian
refugees!
But the survey
showed some disconnect in agreeing that churches need to do more. One in five
pastors in the U.S. said their church is helping refugees overseas and one in
three have addressed the Syrian refugee crisis from the pulpit. Only
8 percent of the pastors consider it a privilege to care for refugees.
The survey sponsored by the humanitarian
organisations World Relief and World Vision….
So, to our
Protestant readers, it looks like you are having some impact in your local
churches already as many pastors are skeptical.
People ask me
all the time: what can I do? You can head off the propaganda
campaign coming your way from these phony “humanitarian” organizations!
They will be taking this poll information and crafting a PR push on your
ministers/pastors. Make sure your pastors understand who World Relief is
planning to bring to your town!

three months of FY2016 are Sunni Muslims, see here. World Relief
is one of nine major federal refugee
resettlement contractors. I don’t know why World Vision gets all that government
cash.
Comments
I suspect our churches are experiencing the backlash for
letting their leaders lend their name to these contractor non-profits. I would
bet that attendance and collections are down because US church-goers have
noticed how Muslim migration has ruined many European countries with no-go
zones Sharia law and Muslim political blocks electing their own Mayors. It is
an invasion.
