ALL CAUGHT UP (3)

December 15, 2015 By Leave a Comment

ONE

We Americans are all caught up in our work and the struggle to pay our bills and buy food and take care of our families just one more day.

We see the government making life harder and making us less free.

We see our enemies advancing unchecked, threatening to kill us, and killing us, and making us scared.

We are all caught up in fear and anger, because we can’t do anything about it, and because those who are supposed to lead in defending us have betrayed us instead.

TWO

We Americans are all caught up in discouragement because we now see we may never get caught up, personally and nationally.

Personal hopes and dreams are too much risk, because there is too much uncertainty in the future (and the present).

The recession recovery is a joke.

The constitution and decent moral values are trashed.

The democratic process and the 2016 election have a heavy, dark cloud hanging over everything.

The powers in Washington are taking us to a point of no return, and soon we can never get caught up.

THREE

More and more Christians are saying our only hope is we’ll get caught up to be with Jesus soon.

Tough to comment on that, but I will.

I could see those words on my tombstone, “ALL CAUGHT UP.”

I believe Jesus is coming back to take me to heaven, with all faithful Christians, one way or the other, rapture or death, maybe martyrdom.

I believe it will be worth it all then!!!!!

But what about now, since we have no control and no say on God’s timing?

What if you take the thought, “ALL CAUGHT UP,” and strip away everything associated with living in America.

—no more rat race

—no more worry about retirement

—no more worry about stuff to keep insured

—no more wasted effort for entertainment

—no more privileges of the top five percent in the world

Would that be a relief?

Would that change the meaning of “ALL CAUGHT UP”?

Yes.

 

I might imagine life going back a few decades, or a century or two—maybe to pioneer days.

Life was hard, death was ever present, uncertainty was real, danger was clear.

Sounds like today.

But values and faith and family and community were strong and stable and dependable, and were passed on intact.

 

I know when one starts talking this way, people say you can’t go back, and the “good old days” weren’t perfect.

But a couple thoughts that count:

An EMP or power grid failure could, and likely will, send us back instantly.

Anything we face now must get us all caught up in seeking God for help, but first for forgiveness and a real relationship with Jesus.

Any way the world goes from here, we have to have Jesus and hold close to Him, hold close to the Bible, and hold close to others who do so.

SOMETHING WRONG ? – – – OR SOMETHING VERY RIGHT !

September 16, 2015 By Leave a Comment

When something goes wrong in our lives, we all tend to first find a problem to blame the people closest to us.

Sometimes that may be true.

But for Christian families genuinely seeking to follow Jesus, we are not each other’s enemy.

The enemy satan is.

He is more than anything else a deceiver, creating illusions of diversion from the real issues.

Illusions lead to delusions, and we fight each other.

And often the reality is that we’re getting attacked primarily because we’re doing something right that displeases the devil.

So for the Christian couple experiencing difficulty, try first discussing together what good you are seeking in God’s will that is drawing fierce enemy fire.

Pray together against the devil, and thank God for what is right, before trying to figure out what’s wrong.

Ted Cruz had a conference call with over 100,000 pastors, urging them to pray and preach against the evil, the horror, of abortion and Planned Parenthood.

That is something God will pay attention to.

John Adams said, “This form of government will only work for a moral people; it is totally unfit for any other.”

Moral health is required for a healthy country.

Only healthy parents raise healthy children.

Only healthy children carry a healthy society to the next generation.

Gays don’t have kids.

Gays don’t raise whole, healthy children.

Gay culture does not survive.

IT IS SAD – – – IT IS ABOUT POWER

April 17, 2015 By Leave a Comment

The militant gay agenda—

IT IS SAD

1)

It is sad for many gay people because it hurts them—their lifestyle is not satisfying because it is not natural.

They are not content with their relationships, so many have very high numbers of partners.

Their higher than average suicide rates reveal desperately unfulfilled lives.

Their average reduced life span reveals the consequences of bad choices.

They never have enough to feel complete, and so they force acceptance of their lifestyle on everyone else, in attempts to fill the void in their own lives.

2)

It is sad for many gay people because it hurts children and families.

Children need a mother and a father.

Children need to just be children when they are young, and not faced with assorted sexuality to satisfy adults’ need to impose it on them prematurely.

The end goal and result of the militant gay agenda hurts all families.

3)

It is sad for many gay people and all people in the culture that embrace this because it destroys nations.

The militant gay agenda is on the wrong side of history.

Families with a mother and a father raising their children to likewise have families of their own are the absolute, essential building blocks of any stable society and nation.

This fact has been true in all human history, and it will not be changed now.

 

IT IS ABOUT POWER

1)

It is about power to push little children into a prison of confusion about what they are, preventing them from understanding who they were obviously created to be.

Under the banner of “gay rights”, the militant gay agenda robs the rights of children to grow up naturally.

The gay lifestyle is unsustainable, so they aggressively recruit, with force.

 

2)

It is about power to threaten schools, businesses, churches, Christians, and governments to change according to the militant gay agenda.

None of their demands, when met, are ever enough to satisfy the desperate need for more power.

The end result of this power grab—they will never reach their goal of happiness, of true gay.

The end result of this power grab—total devastation—for the gay people as well as the entire culture.

Most of the people caught up in pursuing this power do not realize that they are being used by others intent on destroying the very country that gives them freedom to pursue their “rights”.

 

3)

It is about power to shake their fist in the face of the Creator.

God created everything—the universe, man, woman, sex, family, government, church—and He wrote the rules.

We have the power—to choose—to break God’s laws.

God does not force anyone to follow His design for marriage, sex, and family.

So all the people supporting the militant gay agenda in any fashion, even by silence, have complete freedom to do so.

The final question—What is the end result of this power grab?

History clearly states that God had the final volley in the militant gay culture war of Sodom.

 

The Bible is a rock, and it says:

“Whoever falls on this rock will be broken; but the one it falls upon will be ground into powder.”

GUARD DOGS – – – AND – – – FREEDOM

March 9, 2015 By Leave a Comment

“Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty.”

Liberty was given to us.

Founding Fathers gave us liberty—they paid the price.

Soldiers and citizens preserved our liberty—they paid the price.

Liberty did not come by information alone.

Liberty did not come by the democratic process alone.

People who passionately believed in liberty more than life sacrificed everything for freedom, for us.

 

And just whose job is it to guard our freedom today?

That would be anyone with a memory, a passion, a family, a voice, a prayer, a family, an audience, a family, a gun, a Bible.

 

But sadly, today, the universal commitment to vigilance by every American has been replaced with dependence on others—dependence on the government—to keep us free.

And government is the very thing the founders knew was the greatest threat that would endanger our freedom.

 

So how are we doing in guarding our freedom from the encroaching government?

 

People with a voice and an audience sound the alarm—guardians of freedom of speech in the Constitution.  Many are sounding the alarm loud and clear.  But is it enough?

People with a pen and a passion sound the alarm—guardians of freedom of the press in the Constitution.  Many are sounding the alarm loud and clear.  But is it enough?

People with a pulpit and people in the pew sound the alarm—guardians of freedom of religion in the Constitution.  Few are sounding the alarm loud and clear.  It is not enough.  In the Revolutionary War King George feared most the American Black Robed Regiment.  No one fears the preachers in America today.

People with guns sound the alarm—guardians of freedom to bear arms in the Constitution.  How many are sounding the alarm?  Not enough.  Many are very alarmed.  The next paragraph reveals a huge loss in America of understanding the connection between winning our freedom and preserving our freedom.

 

TWO CENTURIES OF DEPENDING ON THE DEMOCRATIC PROCESS HAS MADE US FORGET THAT APPLYING THE SECOND AMENDMENT NOW IS NOT THE DEMOCRATIC PROCESS AS WE HAVE COME TO KNOW IT.

 

The second amendment was written so we can stop the government by force, when elections fail to do so.

The current government—too powerful, out of control, dictatorial, evil—now has huge stockpiles of ammunition specifically intended for killing Americans.  Many Americans understand that our right to bear arms is our only defense against this bad government.

Still we are told from every angle to refrain from violence.  But violence is coming to the streets of America.  Will it be productive violence, or just a massacre?  Will it be too late, then, even for the second amendment?

The Islamic terrorists are eager to do, in America, what they are doing without restraint around the world now.  And BHOB* is doing everything he possibly can to enable and invite them.  All that is left is for the signal to be given, and it will begin.

BHOB* can then hide behind blaming all on the ISIS attack, as he declares martial law and brings his dictatorship to full tyranny.

 

And now a word about guard dogs.

All the people with an audience (and including their audiences) who are diligently documenting all the bad things coming at us daily, and vigorously sounding alarms, are like guard dogs—well-trained to viciously confront the bad guys.

Problem is—the bad guys keep throwing delicious bones to the guard dogs, and occasionally juicy meat, and even something live, which they eagerly devour with loud “rrraarrr.”

The guard dogs are satisfied because they are occupied with frequent feeding frenzies, thinking they have done their job well.

They don’t realize they have just devoured the bait, while the bad guys laugh and ransack the place.  The property is unprotected because the bad guys have locked the guard dogs in a fence of non-violent compliance with the rules.

 

How many true conservatives in the media and in Washington can honestly claim that we are stopping BHOB* and his Islamic terrorist friends?

 

I HEAR A LOT OF TALK BEATING UP THE BAIT, WHILE THE ENEMY HAS NOTHING TO FEAR.

WHAT CAN I GIVE BABY JESUS ?

December 24, 2014 By Leave a Comment

What can you give to impress a baby?

What can you give to impress the King of the Universe?

NOTHING!

This morning I stopped in awe, listening to a song about Mary pondering everything about her baby, Jesus.

So, what can I give baby Jesus?

It seems there are only two things Jesus wants—and only two things I can give.

 

+++ I give Him what I don’t have.

I don’t have money—so I give Him my debts.

I don’t have stuff to impress or boast—so I give Him my shame.

I don’t have a pretty past—so I give Him my sins.

I don’t have a good attitude sometimes—so I give Him my brokenness.

I don’t have a good memory—so I give Him my mind.

I don’t have a handle on planning—so I give Him my future.

 

+++ I give Him what I do have.

I do have a song to share—so I look for someone who needs Christmas cheer (like I do).

I do have words of hope—so I look for someone who needs encouragement (like I do).

I do have answers for the deepest questions—so I look for someone who needs to find meaning in life’s tough times (like I do).

I do have a heart for families—so I look for someone who needs real help in their relationships (like I do).

I do have an identity with the down and out—so I look for someone who needs Jesus and not religion (like I do).

I do have a gift for writing—so I look for someone who needs a word, that will make a difference in their life, in the parts that are for keeps ( l i k e   I   d o ).

 

What I don’t have:

“You do not desire sacrifice, or else I would give it.  The sacrifice God wants is a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise.”

What I do have:

“Whatever you have done for the least of these, you have done it unto Me.”—–Jesus

 

Finally, what can I give—I will give thanks.

CHEMICAL WARFARE BY BHOB*

July 7, 2014 By Leave a Comment

AMERICA VS BHOB* is not a court case.

We are at war, and the sooner we declare it and treat it as war, the greater our chances of winning the war and keeping our freedom.

How long can we refrain from calling it like it is, and responding to it like it is.

Hitler ran roughshod all over Europe before we saw the threat to us and declared war—almost too late.

BHOB* has run roughshod all over America for five and a half years now, and we still don’t fully see the threat.  I say that because we haven’t yet declared war to stop him.  All we’ve done so far is document his aggression.

BHOB’s* blitzkrieg is nonstop, unbelievable, unstoppable.

Only a a force greater that BHOB*, only a willpower greater than BHOB*, only an immediate and all-out declaration of war to stop BHOB*, only a willingness to sacrifice, will give any of us a chance to stay free.

 

When do people get involved in support of a war?  When they see it will affect their lives if they don’t.

When does a individual get involved fighting in a war?  When he sees it getting close to his home.

When does passion drive anyone to win a war at all cost?  When he sees his family get hurt or killed.

 

I don’t know how far along we are in the above sequence—I only know we are farther than we think.

This article is prompted by BHOB’s* despicable invasion of our country with disease-laden children who were secretly housed less than fifteen miles from my home.  When he threatened into silence the medical personnel involved, I say once again, “What more evidence do we need?”

We can no longer point a finger at the terrible things evil leaders do to their people around the world.  We just caught up with them.  We are only waiting for the body counts to start adding up.

BHOB* is willing—and ready—to do anything to any of us that resist.  Dissenters disappear—first mysteriously—then obviously—then wholesale.
