Why I'm glad I'm not tithing to an NCC church anymore

Got this in my email minutes ago:

Yup. Just what I want my tithe money going to. Lobbying the government on social issues.

The church should be concerned with social issues, of course. But the fact that this organization of churches takes the attitude that the government is to solve these issues is the problem is what rubs me wrong.

Rather than teaching self-reliance, rely on the government!

I don't want my church spending money on these issues. I want it bringing people to Christ. This organization has lost sight of that and is wasting God's money. The church should be concerned with people's souls, primarily.

And yes, I am consistent. I don't want the NCC to lobby the government on abortion, either. Though I have little doubt this organization would be ok with killing babies because choice and convenience is so important it trumps life.
