I was being flip, but I think you take my point? I just don't think Jesus would have turned people away if they came to him in desperate need.

You don't have to a Messiah or even a church. If someone came to any of us and said she was pretty sure she was gpoing to be beaten up by her husband, we'd all find her somewhere to stay, if not at our own places.

And if ordinary people like us can do it, it is amazing to think of a church with a high profile mission with charitable status turning her away (and defending the action by saying, well we can't help EVERYONE)
