The Forgotten Impoverished Jews
Written by: Jonathan Israel
Recently a well known Christian pastor and television
evangelist in Branson, Missouri, began his church service with his
congregation affirming Jesus provides each member with a bigger house and a new
automobile. The congregation further professed
they are wealthy, they have no lack of money, they eat the best of foods, wear
the finest apparel, etc.
It’s true that America is the most prosperous
nation in the world. While we have our
share of indigent and homelessness, most Americans have preeminent cars,
comfortable homes, and supermarkets to buy most anything they desire. There are restaurants on every street
corner. In most major cities charitable
organizations provide the homeless three hot meals a day. This is truly a blessed nation. Unfortunately, the more wealth Americans
accumulate, the more they lust after.
Even our most respected churches are embedded with an outrageous spirit
of greed.
As American press in for more wealth, and luxurious houses,
we have forgotten the most vulnerable people in this nation and around the
world: the impoverished Jews. For
example, America
has nearly seventeen million impoverished children that, each and every night,
go to bed hungry. Their tiny bellies are
famished and wanting for something as simple as a piece of fruit. This should not be so. Not in America.
Famine is not just restricted to impoverished American
children, it rages throughout the world.
Impoverished Jews in Siberia are
literally starving to death. They live
in shanty shacks; have no fuel for heat, no medical assistance, and no money to
survive on. They are in desperate need
of our financial support. They are the
forgotten impoverished Jews. America cannot
sit idly by as our beloved Jewish brothers and sisters encounter their greatest
suffering of hunger and starvation since WW11.
We must act now, without our immediate
intervention the Jewish elderly, children, and families will die.
You and I are the key to their deliverance. We are their only hope for survival. Here are few Jewish charities that provide some
relief to impoverished Jews throughout the world. http://www.jnf.org

http://www.chaicancercare.org (for
medical assistance) www.ifcj.org http://www.yadeliezer.org
(Helps impoverished Jews in Israel)
The above list is just a small account of Jewish
charities. There are many more that are
provided through a google search in your area.
Your intervention to rescue a Jewish man, woman, child from starvation
is urgently requested. Act now by
contacting one of the reputable Jewish charities listed above. The scripture says, “I will bless those that
bless you…”
Shalom
