Loma Linda University Health Receives $165,000,000 in California State Tax Dollars for Its New Hospitals

On Friday, August 6, 2021, Loma Linda University Health celebrated the groundbreaking ceremony of its new 16-story, state-of-the-art medical center and the expansion of the 9-story Children’s Hospital tower. These new facilities will allow Loma Linda to expand its services and assist more patients in Southern California’s Inland Empire area.

The new Loma Linda hospital campus was made possible in part by contributions from Seventh-day Adventist philanthropists Dennis and Carol Troesh, who donated $100,000,000 and the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians for their contribution of $25,000,000. But by far the largest sponsor of the new hospitals is the state of California for its generous donation of $165,000,000.

Loma Linda University Health is owned and operated by the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists, not the North American Division. And $165,000,000 is 165,000,000 reasons for the church to strictly adhere to all government health and vaccination mandates. The question that needs to be asked is this: “Are these very profitable church-government relationships influencing our decisions when it comes to making church policy for Covid-19 vaccines and government mandates?”

How does the church protest the actions of a government that is filling our offering boxes with contributions? How can you, with a clear conscience, bite the hand that feeds you? How do you protest against the unconstitutional overreach of the Joe Biden Administration, and the state of California that supports his sweeping vaccine mandates, while receiving money from the very people who trample on personal rights and individual liberties?

Right now, the President of the United States is taking retaliatory and punitive measures against certain unvaccinated citizens. The Joe Biden administration wants to control our lives, our livelihoods and our healthcare decisions with unconstitutional and authoritarian mandates. And where are the voices of all the great leaders of Adventism? Most have fallen silent. Perhaps this is what happens when the government begins to line the pockets of our watchmen who are supposed to be on the walls blowing the trumpet.
