Christian Persecution

The Answer

Last week a sobering report was issued to the House of Lords in the United Kingdom stating that ISIS could wipe out Christianity in Iraq in just five years. Imagine Christianity being extinct in the country where historians say the Garden of Eden was, where Abraham lived, where Noah built the ark, and where Daniel was in the lion’s den! The report is named “Persecuted and Forgotten?” and Prime Minister David Cameron was not afraid to tell the truth—he said, “Every day in countries across the world, Christians are systematically discriminated against, exploited and even driven from their homes because of their faith.” The goal of the Islamic State is the same in Iraq, Syria, and everywhere around the world—erase every other religion besides Islam at whatever cost. Pray for Christians trying to survive in the Middle East. – Franklin Graham

Ronald Reagan

Reagan-ignorant-liberals

In 1964, Ronald Reagan said, “The trouble with our liberal friends is not that they are ignorant, but that they know so much that isn’t so.” This tendency is on full display as the left tries to redefine the Gipper as the respectable conservative alternative to today’s purportedly “extremist” Tea Party movement.

ABC’s Christiane Amanpour waxed nostalgic on the “long and venerable tradition of conservatism in this country” as exemplified by President Reagan and William F. Buckley Jr. “People are looking at the Tea Party and saying this is not conservatism as we knew it but it’s extreme,” she speculated. The supposed radicalism of today stands in contrast with what she called the “intellectual conservatism” of the Reagan era.

This left-wing promotion to intellectual respectability would come as a surprise to Reagan, who was called a lot of things by liberals but never “intellectual.” In general, liberals viewed the Gipper with feelings ranging from condescension to disdain. He was called an extremist, a simpleton, a kook, a Cold War throwback, reactionary, superficial, fanatic and racist. He was either too old to hold office, too crazy, or both.

Wake up World

wake up

There is one main thing standing in the way of a One World Government system being put into power. That is the American Constitution. So we should easily see why there is such a full on attack to destroy it.  Elitist narcissistic individuals with delusions of grandeur recognize they have an obstacle in that special document that prevents them from being able to gain worldwide dominance as long as America remains a “free” superpower.

If we can’t stop this attack by this president who was supposed to be an expert on the Constitution we may fall from within.  Many will argue that he isn’t a constitutional scholar, in spite of the fact that he claims to be one, because the evidence is lacking, however, if you want to destroy something or some enemy, you have to get to know everything you possibly can about the individual or the entity in order to destroy it.  The only evidence I’ve seen offered to support Barak’s claim to be a constitutional law professor is a photo of him at a blackboard but that was not the U.S. Constitution on the board, rather it was something from Alinsky’s “Rules for Radicals” which, in and of itself, speaks volumes.

BHO called the US constitution “A charter of negative liberties,” a statement that is foreign to the mindset of most Americans.  We tend to view it as a positive thing that protects our freedoms while BHO views it as limiting what he can do to us.  That is part of the beauty of the U.S. Constitution in that it hinders would-be tyrants, although the checks and balances thing is not being utilized currently as intended unfortunately.

If BHO is successful in his efforts at undermining of the foundations of the USA it will all fall apart in very short order and that will prove to be very hazardous to many governments around the world.  The progressive/liberals have been actively attempting to fundamentally transform America for many years now for that very reason and it is really an amazing testimony to the resiliency of her people that she has not yet succumbed to the subversives.  But I do believe the days are numbered for America because there are too many who are ignorant or too apathetic to even care and our moral foundation has been drastically eroded.

We need a brand new Great Awakening in America.  With it God can and will turn this nation around; the principle  for causing it to happen is found in His Holy Word, the Holy Bible 2nd Chronicles 7:14.

Let us pray.

Liberty depends upon Moral Values

Ephesians 6 10

We cannot just allow [our moral values] to be frittered away because we’re unwilling to defend them.  This, i think, is absolutely critical …our moral values will sustain us.  Our values as a civilization, our religious values, will sustain us because they are civil values; they are tolerant values, and this, it seems to me, is the kind of thing that will enable all of us to pull together and sustain whatever efforts it takes to resist this attack on us.  –Mort Zuckerman

WHoly Christian, Wake up Call part two

Excerpt from my book “WHoly Christian”:

Pray for wisdom.  We are once again living in a time when it is not particularly popular for people to speak up for their faith in Christ Jesus or be so audacious as to say the Bible is true and it is God’s message to humanity.  Openly mock Jesus and His followers? No problem.  Dare to proclaim Jesus as the one who has changed you life and can positively change the lives of others?  “Houston, we have a problem.”

In his day, G. K. Chesterton commented on the prevailing attitude of that day regarding Christianity.  Middle aged and older Americans can remember when the pendulum had swung in favor of Christianity and the prevailing attitude had changed from Chesterton’s day because folks recognized they were reaping what they had sown by pushing God from the public square.  But the lesson has been forgotten and the old attitudes have returned, the pendulum is in the far left’s arena once again and they are trying to keep it there in spite of the consequences of their policies which we are already experiencing.  One may say: Ozzie and Harriett have moved out and Ozzie Osborn has moved in.  Most of us are longing for the return of Ozzie and Harriett even as some on the left are trying to erase the proof that those days ever existed.  “Houston, we have a problem;” of course, this metaphorical “Houston” is the command center of Heaven and we have been given permission fro God Himself to request wisdom at any time.  Actually, not only do we have permission but God is waiting for and encouraging us to look to Him because He alone has the knowledge, ability, and power to set at naught the Adversaries’ schemes.

  He who refuses to learn from history is forced to repeat its mistakes – George Santayana

All new news is old news happening to new people – Malcom Muggeridge

You are free in our time to say that God does not exist; you are free to say that He exists and is evil; you are free to say (like poor old Renan) that He would like to exist if He could.  You may talk of God as a metaphor or a mystification; you may water Him down with gallons of long words … and it is not merely that nobody punishes, but nobody protests.  But if you speak of God as a fact … as a reason for changing one’s conduct, then the modern world will stop you somehow if it can.  …it is now thought to be irreverent to be a believer. – G. K. Chesterton

The heights of Christian attainment are available to every person.  It’s a shame to live a life short of what God intended your life to be.  Despite appearances, everyone lives forever; the and the bad, the difference is the quality which is directly linked to the presence or absence of God.  Despite whatever protestations may be offered to the contrary; you do not believe what you do not live.

It is quite possible that improper activity and beliefs regarding the arena of politics may potentially have a profound effect on your forever as well as your now.  If a man’s religion and his politics don’t mix there is something wrong with his spiritual condition and his politics, to say the least.  Therefore, if a person chooses to support or refuses to condemn something God condemns then that one may count on enduring the consequences of that choice.  If that person is fortunate the consequences will be experienced in this life, thereby affording an opportunity to repent and begin making reparations.

There are “monsters” in our near future if we do not wake up soon and start taking action to stop evil in its tracks.

Any of my Moslem friends who may take offense at this, I want you to listen carefully:  Tell your Islamist friends to stop being so stupid and intolerant, then we can sit down and reason things out in a peaceable manner.

WHoly Christian, Wake up Call

pastorwardclinton2 Comments

From my book “WHoly Christian”:

Man is but a reed, the weakest thing in nature, but he is a thinking reed.  It is not necessary that the entire universe arm itself to crush him.  A breath of air, a drop of water, suffices to kill him.  But were the universe to crush him, man would still be more noble than that which kills him; because he knows that he dies, and the universe knows nothing of the advantage it has over him.  — Pascal, Thoughts, xviii, xi

Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country.  Ladies and gentlemen that is not just an archaic typing exercise; it really is a call to action of the sort which is so desperately needed at this point in time.  For the last few decades in America there have been a few voices, although we need more, attempting to sound the alarm that we are headed for serious trouble if we do not return wholeheartedly to God in accordance with 2nd Chronicles 7:14.

There is another phrase which is, unfortunately, not yet archaic but it really needs to be made so due to the fact that, at best, it has its roots in the “PC” crowd and its primary purpose is to censor certain type of thought; while hopefully avoiding creeping into the arena of conspiracy theories, that phrase actually may have a far more nefarious purpose.  Regardless of the phrase, there are two things that all Americans absolutely should be talking about, especially conservative Americans:  Politics and religion; one may only affect your life here while the other will affect your life in the here and the hereafter.

Old historic documents, also known as genuine American history, as opposed to the progressive propaganda presently permeating our public “educational” system, actually reveal that, in the years following the founding of the USA as a representative republic, nearly everyone routinely discussed both because they believed the then common adage that the way to maintain freedom was for everyone to be fully informed regarding politics and religion.

Therefore I contend the concept of silencing public discourse regarding politics and religion is rooted in a liberal-progressive idea which has as its goal the dumbing down of the populace in order to gain control and firmly establish an elitist ruling class, and for that reason, today’s Christian cannot afford the luxury of loafing.
