.........Help is on the way

………………Help is on the way

True stuff:, because of all the lawsuits against "good Samaritans" whose efforts end badly, fewer people are willing to stop and lend assistance at the scene of an accident. As a result, experts are wondering whether or not we need laws compelling us to help each other.

I am not surprised in this day and age that we have to be told to help our neighbor. What I am sad about is this is the world we are leaving our next generation. I read a recent study that stated the bigger the crowd the less likely anyone would offer aid to someone in distress. A lone person is more likely to help, summon help, insist on resolution, than from others acting as one.

We can put together groups and societies to effectively promote animal rescue and welfare to minimize animal suffering, only to euthanize seventy percent later out of sight. The results are that there are fewer stray animals and many lost humans about. Humans have institutions in place but they have forgotten their purpose here; to save souls, to show the love of God is real. Those who are professed Christians, yet whose hearts are insensitive to the suffering and needs of others give sure evidence that they do not have eternal life abiding in them. 

My God is real, that is why you are reading this, it is my responsibility to act upon the holy spirits love within me and not to harden my heart. You shall know them by their fruits.

 In Jesus' parable, the good Samaritan, a priest and a fellow Levite both walked past this half-dead man. Seems this insensitive behavior has been going on for some time. Should a society with indifference to human suffering like the one above deserve any of humanities rewards, physical or eternal? I see cruelty and civility(zation) as the same philosophical foot print.

There are already laws on the books for failure to report an accident. It is illegal to just ignore and drive past dead bodies and do nothing. You know, I bet a man down would get more attention still today in Samaria, just north of Jerusalem, than here. Simon of Cyrene was made to carry the heavy cross member the rest of the way for Jesus, Simon didn't volunteer to help, he was whipped. Ain't nothing changed, then or now.
"And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name: him they compelled to bear his cross." ………Matthew 27:32

When we discover the fatal nature of our situation. Then, and only then, do we become as open-minded to conviction and as willing to listen as the dying can.
