My brother is volunteering at a homeless shelter. Not an uncommon thing, one would think, for a believer to do. Unless you are the Lamar Council of Churches. Lamar has the only homeless shelter within about 200 miles. My brother volunteered his youth group to work at the shelter and was informed that it would be great if they were still open…You see the Council of (supposed) Churches had illegally taken control of the homeless Shelter. They were meeting that very night on some details. After a very short meeting, the shelter was closed. Over 2,200 people passed through the shelter last year alone. That night, after the meeting, they locked the doors and didn't allow the 20 men inside with temperatures below Zero. (Colorado in the Winter). Today, after several things happening, the shelter has been reopened. My brother is currently sitting on the board of a Shelter that is $13,000 in the hole, and have no support from the council of Churches.


Here are my questions. Is this what the church has become? And also, What is Christ going to say? Matthew 25:41-46
