A New Inscription for the Statue of Liberty

The inscription on the Statue of Liberty reads, “Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, the wretched refuse of your teeming shore.  Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me.  I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”  Perhaps it should now read, “Ignore our laws and our way of life, flood our country with those who refuse to assimilate into our culture, those who steal, kill, and destroy our nation.   Join with the president, those in Washington and across the country who disdain freedom, that want to make people equally poor, and whose goal is to destroy the Christian foundations that freedom, prosperity, justice, and security are based upon.”

Barack Hussein Obama was honest in claiming that his administration would be transparent.  With his name, words, and deeds it is clear what he stands for and what his goals are.  These are not just his aims, but much of Congress, the Supreme Court, and others share his ambition of transforming the United States and the world into a communistic system of elites and peons wherein there will be no private property, freedom, or God given rights.

One of the latest slithers in their assault on America is bringing Syrian refugees into the country with no way to know if there are terrorists among them.  Overwhelming the states with people who for the most part have no intention of renouncing their false religion or assimilating into the American culture is an important part of their scheme.  True to their method of operation, our enemies in Washington created a crisis to further their cause of fundamentally changing America.  Obama, those following his unlawful orders, and those pulling his strings connived to create a power vacuum in the middle-east that allowed the advancement of the heathens that call themselves the Islamic State and produced the refugees.

May we seek The Father in what we should do individually to help avert the loss of the freedom He gave us.  Perhaps freedom, security, peace, and prosperity was only for a season, but let us do all we can so that we can know that we tried.  God relented from destroying Nineveh when they repented (Jonah 3).  Jesus said in Luke 21: 36, “Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.”  Prepare now for what God may allow to come our way.

May God be merciful as our nation repents of killing babies, sexual deviancy, complacency, idolatry, and all other sin; and as we believe in the gospel.  Only He can untangle the knot our sin has put us in.

Planned Parenthood Atrocities

Planned Parenthood’s name should be changed to Prevent Parenthood, and it should stop being touted as a health care provider. As recent videos from the Center for Medical Progress reveal, Planned Parenthood “doctors” not only brutally tear babies to pieces, they then sell the parts of the babies for profit. One video shows Planned Parenthood staff poking through a pie plate full of arms, eyes, lungs, and the rest of who should have been held close in a pink or blue blanket. The image that comes to mind instead is that of a horror movie involving mad scientists.

How have so many in our nation become so desensitized to the torturing and mangling of babies, even to the point of parting them out as if they are no more than an old car or a side of beef? Over half a billion dollars of our money is forced from us and handed to these butchers.

If so many in our nation have become capable of such savagery, condoning or turning a blind eye to it, what will be next in our path of “progress”? With government approved murder of those who are completely dependent on others for their every need, it is no wonder why there is a steady stream of senseless shootings and other such killings.

Even in light of the video evidence proving Planned Parenthood’s horrific practices, the U. S. Senate still refuses to vote to stop our tax dollars from funding Planned Parenthood’s houses of horror. The president and others who absorb our wages still hold this monstrous organization in esteem.

We have become a nation of pagans preserved only by the salt of those who obey the God that we are one nation under. To be effective, that salt cannot stay in the shaker.

Justice for Judges

The U. S. Supreme Court has followed the president’s lead in disregarding laws, including the issue of marriage. President Obama and the judges that share his delusional views have decreed that marriage is no longer what it has been since Adam and Eve.

Marriage always has been and always will be the union of one man and one woman for life. God ordained it so in Genesis 2:24 where He said, “Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.” Regardless of how man may try to alter this institution, a rational person knows this is true. However, since the White House has been disgraced by its current occupant and so many do his bidding, we no longer live in a rational country. It is imperative that we as a nation demand a return to truth because those running the country refuse truth and embrace lies.

If certain individuals choose to be involved in inappropriate behavior, then that is their choice, but to try to justify it and demand that others accept it as appropriate is foolish. To equate marriage with any arrangement besides one man and one woman is preposterous. In order for a society to function, especially one of self-government such as ours, then its people must be self-governed. This means doing what one should and restraining oneself from doing what ought not to be done.

There is no push for the right to steal others’ property (except through taxes or other such confiscation). There is no claim yet that adultery should be acceptable, or rape, or murder (except through abortion). Those who steal, murder, rape, or commit adultery are held in dishonor. Right is right and wrong is wrong no matter how much we may deny it. So, how can the deviant behavior of homosexuality rise to the status of the honored institution of marriage?

The “reign” of the president and judges who have overreached and overturned marriage laws needs to be abruptly ended. The way it is done is through impeachment by the House of Representatives (Article 1, Section 2 of the United States Constitution), followed by prosecution by the Senate and punishment (Article 1, Section 3). The Constitution states in Article 3, Section 1, that these judges “shall hold their offices during good behavior.” If ignoring law, decency, and good sense is good behavior, then may they remain in office and continue receiving generous salaries taken out of the tax-payers’ income. If this is not good behavior, then why are their decisions taken seriously, and why are the president’s executive orders and unlawful actions tolerated? Why are they still allowed by our Congressmen to pretend to be honorable public officials when they are no more than fools and villains?

Islam and Progressivism- The Death Connection

There is common ground that explains why the supposed defenders of the female, the presumed rescuers of the downtrodden, and the promoters of perversion steer clear of rebuking those who degrade women, convert humanitarian aid to military use, and execute homosexuals. Progressivism and Islam seem to have nothing in common, but they have one important connection that keeps those on the political left from decrying Islam, and that connection is death.

Progressives appear to promote the improvement of the human condition. Their method of operation is through expanded government control of peoples’ lives and money. They hold to whatever “truth” suits them at the time, while spurning absolute truth. They believe the lie that more money and more government will cure the ills of the world. To Progressives, truth is the source of the world’s problems and contrary to their ideology. They ignore the obvious, such as that through self-government, capitalism, and most importantly, faith in the Creator, America became the wealthiest, freest, most generous, and perhaps most protected nation on earth. Instead of keeping with these principles that have attracted millions to this country, Progressives are bent on destroying these principles and the nation built upon them. Many among the Republican Party leadership can be counted among them.

Just as truth represents life, lies represent death. The lies of Progressivism lead to the death of marriage and family, the death of infants, the death of those deemed unworthy of life, the death of freedom, and the death of America. Their fear of truth provokes them to quash opposition, just as the lies of Islam incite the cowardly behavior of men hiding their faces and themselves behind women and children; and to kill anyone whose life can be taken to promote their demented doctrine.

Islam and Progressivism both promote the death of America by “fundamentally changing America”. There is a choice. Accept truth and life. Then if God allows, return to an America of freedom, prosperity, and protection; or choose a dogma of deceit and suffer the consequences of lies, which is subjugation, ruin, and death.

Independence Day, Keep Our Flag There

As the fireworks begin to sound off and light up the night on the anniversary of our God-given national independence, know that the rockets’ red glare and the bombs bursting in air are reminding us that our flag is still there, for now; but also they are warning that what the flag stands for is fast becoming an indistinguishable remnant of a red, white, and blue piece of cloth. Truth, humility, and righteousness have been driven to the trenches by deceit, pride, and other forms of evil. The lives given by the founders of our country so that we and others might have freedom have been traded for apathy and complacency. The hardships they endured for us have been repaid with negligence in maintaining the liberty they gained by God’s grace. The gift of freedom that the God of creation handed to us through those that established the United States of America has been squandered by our selfishness and laziness.

The colonists knew that they were out of their league in their vie for freedom from British oppression, but being on the side of righteousness, they depended on the One who brings down one and exalts another. Likewise, we can know that if we ready ourselves to take back the heritage that we have allowed to be taken, that which is held captive by those who would destroy our heritage, we too can depend on the One who lifts up. We can end our days knowing that although for a time we may have relaxed and fell asleep at our posts, we have awakened with renewed vigor and faith in the faithful One, and have done what we can to set things aright.

May the fuses that are lit on Independence Day be the ones that ignite in us an explosion of resolve to honor God and those who paved the way for us to attain to such a level of comfort. As the darkness flees the brilliance of each blast, may our self-destructive tendencies give way to self-sacrifice for those who depend on us for their future. As the report from each detonation alerts our senses, may we be stirred to action in the cause of justice.
