Let us Pray

The National Day of Prayer was founded in 1952 by a joint resolution of the U.S. Congress and signed into law by President Harry S. Truman. It reveals the deep understanding that many Americans have that this country was founded upon Judeo-Christian ethics and receives its blessing from the God of heaven and the influence of His word the Bible. This years day of prayer holds much deeper meaning as we face the un-relenting encroachment of un-restrained government into the fabric and freedom of our lives. At risk is not only our economic freedoms but intellectual and religious freedom. These include most importantly freedom of conscience and expression and the right to speak the word of God regardless of who may be offended. Hate crimes legislation is on a fast track through the halls of leadership and may soon threaten our ability to protect ourselves and our children from a perverted sense of entitlement characteristic of those pursuing alternative sinful lifestyles. This is a spiritua...

Truth Under Assault

During the coming celebration of President Obama's first 100 days we will certainly witness a strained attempt at placing positive value on the following achievements. (These are not in any particular order, however the cumulative effect is the same.We are witnessing a deliberate attempt at moving our culture, its politics, religion and economics as far left as possible in as little time as possible) Obama and friends first 100 days: • remove the world wide abortion funding ban, allowing the use of federal funds for promoting the killing of un-born children around the world • lifts restrictions on un-born children embryonic stem cell research • currently attempting to rescind the Bush Rule on Conscience for Health Care Providers – increasing pressure on health care providers to violate their moral convictions with regard to killing un-born children • ignoring and denying the foundational Judeo-Christian principles of this nati...

A Daily Prayer

On this Tea Party Day I am posting this prayer by George Washington. George Washington A Daily Prayer Almighty God, We make our earnest prayer that Thou wilt keep the United States in Thy holy protection: that thou wilt incline the hearts of the citizens to cultivate a spirit of subordination and obedience to government, and entertain a brotherly affection and love for one another and for their fellow citizens of the United States at large. And finally that Thou wilt most graciously be pleased to dispose us all to do justice, to love mercy, and to demean ourselves with that charity, humility, and pacific temper of mind which were the characteristics of the Divine Author of our blessed religion, and without a humble imitation of whose example in these things we can never hope to be a happy nation. Grant our supplication, we beseech Thee, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. Psalm 32:12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord... South Carolina 1778, Preamble: We, the people of the St...

Marriage

How about some truth about marriage. It appears lately that the term "marriage" is being hijacked for use by the radical left to describe the age old concept of homosexual unions. This is an attempt to bring about complete acceptance and approval from all for this alternative lifestyle. This contentious battle is not being won in the marketplace of ideas and culture, so the latest tactic is to enlist the aid of government. With the aid of the strong arm of the law, the left will continue to use intimidation, coercion and punishment against those who do not approve of their lifestyle. We are a step away from the oppression currently experienced in Canada and other nations worldwide. In June of 2005 Dr Chris Kempling, a Christian counselor at a Canadian high school was charged with "conduct unbecoming" a teacher by the British Columbia College of Teachers. His scolding was in response to a series of editorials he wrote in a local newspaper supporting traditional marri...

Truth will always be

In anticipation and celebration of Spring a few random notes on Truth - Truth exist – Truth is as real as a map or GPS coordinates– Truth is that which conforms to reality Truth can be known – we can choose Truth or choose all other lies Truth is under assault – by lies since creation – some say creation is a lie A Subjective truth statement is “ I like vanilla ice cream” or “I prefer to believe something that makes me feel good” it is declaring an opinion or personal preference An Objective truth statement is “ planes with no power do not fly well” - “even if you jump high you will not fly” “that ice cream is melting” it is declaring a fact about something or the state of an object Truth is that which conforms to “reality” – is “ reality” subjective or objective? What is real is real whether I believe it to be real or not - reality is objective Truth is true whether I believe it or not Truth is the foundation of knowledge and subsequently o...

Truth Applied or Denied?

If you pay attention you will observe the utter denial of major foundational truths on a daily basis. Among our political and cultural leadership these moments of denial are usually accompanied by a complete disregard and contempt of those who are concerned enough to point them out. While examining the opening phrase of our most respected and misunderstood founding document and comparing this statement of belief to recent current events, some major truths are apparently tossed aside. I am writing of the Declaration of Independence and drawing some conclusions in regard to how they are given jurisdictional weight only in matters that benefit the left. In the opening text we read "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." The first event this past week happens to be a polite dis-invite of writer, teacher, comed...

Truth or Consequences

To some, truth is an asset, to others, a liability. Our current administration's reaction to attempts by critics and the undecided to understand the full implications of a record breaking, history making, back breaking, and inflation creating grand stimulus package, appear to be quite over-dramatic. Perhaps for them the truth is a liability. The Obama media as well, has bent over backwards in the attempt to persuade the masses that such scrutiny by Rush Limbaugh and others is certainly un-deserved and time wasting and should not be tolerated. How dare we stop and study and question these grand leftist steps of progress towards the great healing our nation desperately needs? ( Side Note - some believe this economic crisis was manufactured and encouraged by great powerful leftist in Washington who used the base instincts of greed and profit in banking and real estate and wall street to their advantage. Substantial evidence supporting this claim is prevalent. Rohm Emmanuel even spoke...
