Some Charities ARE Harming The Spirit
Too many things today are almost entirely about the money and charities are included in that. How much of the cash you give is spent on management salaries and to advertise in hopes of raising even more money? What kind of bribes must the charity pay to get the food or help to those in need? What additional harm is wrought by the money siphoned off by corruption? Are there ‘strings’ attached to the assistance which are not beneficial to the recipient over the long term? Could your contribution be better used for good by a better administration? These ALL factor into eternity’s record concerning you AND often the net is a loss, instead of a gain. From an eternal standpoint, you would’ve been better off keeping your money in your pocket.
You want one obvious example? Cancer Research. There is so much money going into cancer research that it stands in the way of a cure for cancer even being seriously looked for. Why would any cancer researcher want to actually find a cure, when it would instantly dry up the revenue streams (make that the vast revenue rivers) that cancer researching charities generate? You may attempt to blind yourself to the reality of what I’ve just said but eternity sees through the BS. Only the absolute truth will feature in your ultimate judgment, along with the upstream & downstream results.
Am I suggesting that you stop giving? No. A legitimate charitable organization (and that does NOT mean government approved), will help people and build up your afterlife bank balance (like giving to me also does). But let me help you put your donations to where they will do real good.and serve the philanthropic purpose that you intend – without the negating side effects on the spirit.
