Surprising that the heretic Jim Wallis and the apostate Sojourners/Call to Renewal isn't mentioned. Surely they were involved in something like this!

...Christians have a biblical responsibility to help the poor and ease suffering around the world, according to NCCUSA.

Then they (NCCUSA) should do something themselves instead of taking the apathetic/liberal approach, demanding someone else (the Government) do this for them.

WRONG, it is the churches responsibility to take care of these issues, not the governments. Idiots.

I thought liberals hated mixing politics and religion.

So did this bunch walk or bicycle themselves to WDC to demonstrate their independence from that drug ‘oil’? Or are they getting their oil on the cheap from Chavez?

""Each day!" Aykazian said. "They (children) die in small villages far from the lenses of television cameras. We must help them, we simply must. Our faith must inspire us to act.""

I wonder how many of these "Christian Leaders" march to the steps of the Supreme Court on January 22 each year.

Because, "each day! thousands of unborn children die in abortion clinic far from the lenses of television cameras"

I bet that there are precious few of these "Christian Leaders who would say about unborn children that "We must help them, we simply must. Our faith must ."inspire us to act

The President of the National Council of Churches USA, Archbishop Vicken Aykazian, in preparation for Monday’s advocacy told participants of the Ecumenical Advocacy Days that Christians

That was enough to stop me from reading any farther. The article started off with a false premise when it put the National Council of Churches and the word "Christian" in the same sentence. The NCC is part of the WCC (World Council of Churches) and neither is any more representative of the Church of Jesus Christ than a Hindu temple. The apostate mainline Protestant denominations both in the US and Europe began withdrawing from the true Church of Jesus Christ over a century ago and have gradually completed the withdrawal process over the last 50 years.

True Christian churches whether Protestant or not would not have any part in such an amalgamation of heretical "Christians" as the WCC, some of whose members still profess to believe in the God of the bible but in their own perverted interpretation of His and His Son's identity, and other more radical "Christians" who have completely severed ties between themselves and anything resembling the true Christian faith and have taken up with collectivist radicals who would nuke the US in a NY minute if they ever got the chance.

Christians have a biblical responsibility to help the poor and ease suffering around the world, according to NCCUSA.

And they are right. . .we should. What we should NOT do is delegate that responsibility to government.
