ELCA Wants the United States to Pay Palestinian Bills to the Lutheran World Federation (LWF)10/4/2018 Yesterday the ELCA Conference of Bishops issued a statement (see here) that coincides with the statement last month, by ELCA Presiding Bishop Elizabeth Eaton, asking for the United States to pay $25 million in expenditures to 6 hospitals that treat Palestinians. One of those hospitals, the Augusta Victoria Hospital, is run by the Lutheran World Federation (LWF), of which the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) is a member.
The ELCA and LWF are very sympathetic to the Palestinian cause and antagonistic to Israel. And they want U.S. taxpayer money to compensate them, because the Palestinian people and their government are not paying the bills that they accumulate at the hospital. The terrorist Palestinian state is manipulating the system, and the ELCA and LWF are willing participants who, up until this year, were passing the bill on to the United States. The ELCA and LWF need to pay their own bills or demand the Palestinian government pay for their services received. The United States has helped this terrorist, Jew-hating entity enough. The United States has given over $700 million alone to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East in 2016 and 2017. (see here) It is time to stop paying their and the ELCA/LWF’s expenses. Doing so enables evil behavior.

There are a lot of good Palestine people but their leadership leaves a lot to be desired when their goal is to destroy Israel. Apparently Bishop Eaton & our ELCA leadership is able to look past that and continue to blame Israel for the middle east problems. We have been to Israel a couple of time and being there makes the Bible stories become much more real than just hearing about "social justice" in our pulpits many times. Israel doesn't do everything right but please don't use my ELCA offerings to fund this project or demand that our government do this.

These hospitals need to write off these bills as charitable care. Israeli hospitals have been treating Muslims for free for many years as they are a moral people and "all peoples on earth will be blessed through you" Genesis 12:3.
