In the first part we talked about the faith leaders who twisted God’s words to what, I felt, was an agenda.

Let us look at two areas in which the faith leaders pass the buck.

First let’s look at abortion. This is a very simple one. What part of the sixth commandment do they not understand. Do not murder! It is a sin, no matter how you want to cut it. You make no excuse when you take another life out just because you decide too. Let us stop here for a moment. I for one would never advocate to take any one’s free choice away. That is not my right, I am no ones nanny. But that does not mean that I should not bring to that person’s attention of the sin he is committing. I believe that we should try to stop them from committing that sin.

Homosexuality is another one that God is very clear on. Here is a list of a few Bible verses that tell us just how much of a sin it is. Make no mistake God is very definite on this one. He leaves no gray area. Leviticus 20:13, Leviticus 18:22, Proverbs 22:28, Proverbs 14:12, Psalm 119:11, Isaiah 5:20-21, Hosea 4:6, Judges 17:6, Hebrews 10:26-27, Romans 1:16-2:16, This one is very hard on all of us, First Corinthians 6:9-10, First Timothy 1:9-10. These are a few and if you look you will find more I am sure.

Now with it be this clear why do so many so called faith leaders want to dance around these issues. Again it is all about self, greed and power. Look at the Pharisees, teachers of the law all wanted a place at the head table. They all wanted to be at the center of the room/meeting. Why? They were more into their selves for man’s recognition, man’s praises, not for God’s glory and praise.

I fear we deal with the same now.

I have talked to faith leaders and they tell me both abortion and homosexuality are social issues. If they weren’t trying to side step the issues for some agenda and they know the Bible.

Then why would anyone of them say that they are social issues.

They are not they are Biblical issues.

Now I do find some of them are about as spineless as the politicians are. They will not take a stand in fear of offending someone. Well Jesus called the Pharisees a brood of vipers and hypocrites and since we are to be more like Jesus then I stand on their toes. I believe it is time for our faith leader to stand up, take that Biblical stand on Biblical principles. If the federal government takes your tax exempt status away then so be it. Because I would think they would be way ahead dealing with that than standing in front of God and answering why they did not stand for His principles. We are all going to be in front of GOD but for me I do what God tells me not society or what this government tells me to do.

AS FOR ME I WILL SERVE GOD.

Galatians 6: 7 and 8:
7-Do not be deceived “God is not mocked” for whatever a man sows this he will also reap.
8-For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.

Now let us ask ourselves if we can trust the clowns that we have elected to the house and the senate and also the president.

This is true for the ones elected now and in the last twenty years. I would believe not.

They have shown us over and over that they are only looking for votes and to be re-elected.

So, as Christians, we should be able to turn to our faith leaders. Do you really want to go there, I for one have serious concerns about that.

I take the Bible as God word. I believe he created earth and everything on it, around it, in it, and above it. I believe that He has the power to control anyone that translates His Word/Bible. Isaiah is the only book found in its entirety with the Dead Sea Scrolls. There have been a number of people who have compared the words from the the original text and have found it to be over 99 percent correct in the translation to the Bible printed today. The other books were found but parts at different times. I have faith in my Heavenly Father that His Book was put together the way he wanted it to be.

Now that I have got that out of the way, let us look at our faith leaders.

I fear that a lot of leaders in the religious groups are usurping the Bible. By this I mean they are twisting the words to fit an agenda. They do not want to step on toes because they may lose some people in there group/church. Why? Could it be as simple if they drive away some people they will not collect the same amount of money in the old coffers. I believe is the bottom line. Also the Federal government has stuck its nose into the church to tell them that if they do this or not do that they could lose their tax exempt status. Well maybe they should not worry so much about the Feds and the money, And start to worry more about God/Jesus’s teachings.

Isaiah 33:22: For the Lord is our judge, the Lord is our lawgiver, the Lord is our King.
NOTICE IT SAYS NOTHING ABOUT THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.

So they twist the words, instead of a Biblical issue they pretend it is a social issue. This way they can stay clean in their eyes from stepping across any social or government lines.

They might want to read Galatians 6: 7and 8 which I have placed at the top of the post. If you study the Bible you will find everything that has to do with our life here on earth– personal, public, social, and yes government. It gives us a good foundation in every walk of our lives. So do yourself a favor and pick it up and read it. Do not depend on someone else to give you the meaning.

In part 2 I will lay out some specific places where I think these so called faith leaders take us off track.

GOD WILL NOT BE MOCKED!!!!!

Why do we hang on every word that flows from famous people’s mouths?

We want to know what the stars from Hollywood and New York City have to say on everything in our lives. The issue of gun control, abortion, homosexuality, how to raise our kids, what to wear, where we should send our money, whether we should pay higher taxes ( which I have never seen any of these people send extra money to the IRS– but they sure as hell advocate that for us). I mean– every time– we stop and listen to their dumb remarks. WHY!!!

Like when Danny Glover says the second amendment was created to protect slavery. Or Oprah’s interview with Armstrong. Armstrong Has proved he is a liar on drugs. Let us move on. Glover is a has been– move on. Let us go to Morgan, Hannity, Combs, O’Reilly, Beck, Jessie Jackson, Maddow, Matthews, Limbaugh–these people are all what I call pot agitators. In other words– someone that uses stories to get people up in arms.

On a side note,on the problems in Israel/Palestine, 80 percent would be taken care of if the pot agitators got out of the way and let the people themselves work it out. I.E.– not religious leaders or politicians.

We have the stars in Hollywood always wanting to put their two cents worth in. All of these people are just the same as we are. Please tell me what makes these people any better or smarter than you or I.

God made each and everyone of us. He does not play favorites. We all get his attention and LOVE. We need to go to Him for that Love. He is waiting with great anticipation for our arrival to Him. Yes, God will judge us for our action and what we say . But he is also a loving God. He waits for us to come to him on our own with great anticipation. Coming to Him Of our own free choice and free will.

He is like a parent planing and buying birthday gifts. Like a mother buying for or planing a child’s wedding before that child even knows a wedding is coming. Will they love this or that in their wedding. It means so much to a parent to try to make their child special day perfect. That is the same Love God has for us. He plans for our arrival to him with open arms. What do we do– we run to listen to someone else that wants their 15 minutes of fame. They want more if they can get it.

Listen to your heart and go to God through Jesus. He is planing and waiting for us with preparation and joy. He anticipates the rapture of his children–His own heart full of Love.

So why not trust the one that created us, for He is waiting.

Sir, in your press conference, which I will call a side show, you said we have to protect the children and that is what we will judged on.

Sir, we will be judged on on every action taken and every thing we say.

You are correct that protecting the little ones is very important. I have just one question for you, sir. How are you going to stand and answer God for your action of advocating, endorsing, and sponsoring bills for murder?

Over one million abortions a year are flushed down a toilet. GOD’s CHILDREN!

How will you do that, sir?

There is not going to be anyone to hold your hand and blow smoke up your butt to tell you how great and wonderful you are. You will be by yourself, alone and I guarantee sir that God is not going to put up with your jive BS. Sir, you are not a dictator, monarch or any other so called privileged person, you sir are just a human being– just like the rest of us. You put your pants on one leg at a time. You have been given a great responsibility by the people of the United States. What do you do with it, is that you piss all over our Constitution. You jam feces down our throat. You jam through bills that 70 percent of us do not want. Do you actually believe that you are greater than the people that give you that job or the people that founded this great nation with a lot of help from God. Because you are not. You, sir, would not make pimple on any one of our founders butts. You are also not one forth the person that Frederick Douglas, Prince Whipple, James Armistead, or Oliver Cromwell. If you are too dumb to know who these great men were let me know and I will tell you. Because they were a lot more of a patriot than you are. Sir you are not all by yourself in DC, there a bunch more elitist hypocrites there with you. Just look in your cabinet, the senate, or the house. By the way sir you are not God either.

Oh sir in case you did not know it–when the egg is fertilized, it has human DNA. That means to most of us that it is a baby, one of Gods children.

I also heard you say in a speech that if one of your daughters makes a mistake you do not want them stuck with a baby(one of Gods children)– then sir you might want to teach them to stand in an upright position–not teach them it is OK to murder.

Don’t you think that would be a better solution?

I serve the Lord not you, Sir.

Isaiah 33:22:

For the Lord is our judge, the Lord is our lawgiver, the Lord is our King.

NOTICE, SIR, IT SAYS NOTHING ABOUT YOU!!!!!!

Joshua 24:15:
If it is disagreeable in your sight to serve the Lord, choose for yourselves today whom you will serve: whether the Gods which your fathers served which are beyond the river, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living. AS FOR ME AND MY HOUSE,WE WILL SERVE THE LORD.

Why is it that as free agents of God we are so willing to give up so many of our freedoms?

We are given the right to bear arms through the Constitution, which no matter who says differently, God had a direct hand in writing or inspiring that great document. No one can tell us that God was a bystander in writing it. No matter what the so called new leaders say– it is still a document that will lead us through today’s very rough times. Why do we allow leaders to jam down our throats rules/laws that the major portion of our population wants nothing to do with. If you do not believe this then why are there long lines at gun shows and gun stores? People are afraid of these new leaders thinking they are so much more smarter than our founders. They want to be our nannies in every respect. Well for me they would not make pimple on any of our founder butts. They have an agenda and it is not for us to remain a free agent. They have been working on this for at least the last one hundred and twenty years. They enact laws in very small bits. A pinch here and a pinch there until they have the whole. Look at the freedoms that were around ten years ago and that are are gone now. Now, they want to go after the guns, but in small bits. They will never try to ban guns all at once, they could never get that done and they know it. But make no mistake– that is just what they want. They started with background checks. I do believe in checks for a person to buy a gun, so no one that has a criminal record or a mental problem can just go out and by one. My problem with this is what  they are going to do with the information they collect. Now the government wants to expand that, they want to record your ammo purchases the size clips we buy. Then they want a national database, then the United Nations global data base. Again what are they going to do with this information? Could it be when they felt the time is right, they have your address, so now so they can just come and confiscate your guns. So do we now see that any kind of intrusion from the government on our rights is where that can lead to. Now our so called president is going to stand today up and let us know how much of our rights they are about to infringe on, and in doing so with all the little kids from around the nation and Sandy Hook that as soon as the shooting happened set down and wrote a letter to him expressing their fears. I am sure that for  these young children that was not the first thing that came into their minds, is to write the president. They want us to believe that they thought of that when they were leaving the school. They could not wait to get home and grab a paper and pen to get him to enact new controls. Yeah right, maybe when monkeys fly out of our butts!

These people in Washington DC are shameless. They will do anything to hold onto their power and expand it. These people are biggest bunch of narcissistic arrogant liars.
They are all elitist hypocrites.

Well for me I will serve God– not these clowns. I will not give up anymore of my God given freedoms for a bunch of elitists to look good and feel good for a group of dummies to get their vote.

You want anymore of my God given Freedoms, MOLON LABE and you better bring force. For you people that does not know what this means. It is King Leonidas response to the Persian army in the battle of Thermopylea in 480 BC. It means COME AND TAKE THEM!

I would like to post this email which I received on my web site and also to thank Mr. Scott for his very insightful speech. I know the feelings Mr. Scott has for if you have looked at my site, I too have lost a child. Mr Scott is correct about the fact that we have gone too far from God. I beg that we get right with God and ask for his forgiveness for our sin of neglect of Him. Here also is the link for a copy of Mr Scott’s full speech below.

Full Speech

Email I received:

COLUMBINE STUDENT’S FATHER 12 YEARS LATER !!
On Thursday,Darrell Scott, the father of Rachel Scott, a victim of the Columbine High School shootings in Littleton, Colorado , was invited to address the House Judiciary Committee’s subcommittee. What he said to our national leaders during this special session of Congress was painfully truthful.

The following is a portion of the transcript:

“Since the dawn of creation there has been both good & evil in the hearts of men and women. We all contain the seeds of kindness or the seeds of violence. The death of my wonderful daughter, Rachel Joy Scott, and the deaths of that heroic teacher, and the other eleven children who died must not be in vain. Their blood cries out for answers.

“The first recorded act of violence was when Cain slew his brother Abel out in the field. The villain was not the club he used.. Neither was it the NCA, the National Club Association. The true killer was Cain, and the reason for the murder could only be found in Cain’s heart.

“In the days that followed the Columbine tragedy, I was amazed at how quickly fingers began to be pointed at groups such as the NRA. I am not a member of the NRA. I am not a hunter. I do not even own a gun. I am not here to represent or defend the NRA – because I don’t believe that they are responsible for my daughter’s death. Therefore I do not believe that they need to be defended. If I believed they had anything to do with Rachel’s murder I would be their strongest opponent

I am here today to declare that Columbine was not just a tragedy — it was a spiritual event that should be forcing us to look at where the real blame lies! Much of the blame lies here in this room. Much of the blame lies behind the pointing fingers of the accusers themselves. I wrote a poem just four nights ago that expresses my feelings best.

Your laws ignore our deepest needs,
Your words are empty air.
You’ve stripped away our heritage,
You’ve outlawed simple prayer.
Now gunshots fill our classrooms,
And precious children die.
You seek for answers everywhere,
And ask the question “Why?”
You regulate restrictive laws,
Through legislative creed.
And yet you fail to understand,
That God is what we need!

“Men and women are three-part beings. We all consist of body, mind, and spirit. When we refuse to acknowledge a third part of our make-up, we create a void that allows evil, prejudice, and hatred to rush in and wreak havoc. Spiritual presences were present within our educational systems for most of our nation’s history. Many of our major colleges began as theological seminaries. This is a historical fact. What has happened to us as a nation? We have refused to honor God, and in so doing, we open the doors to hatred and violence. And when something as terrible as Columbine’s tragedy occurs — politicians immediately look for a scapegoat such as the NRA. They immediately seek to pass more restrictive laws that contribute to erode away our personal and private liberties. We do not need more restrictive laws. Eric and Dylan would not have been stopped by metal detectors. No amount of gun laws can stop someone who spends months planning this type of massacre. The real villain lies within our own hearts.

“As my son Craig lay under that table in the school library and saw his two friends murdered before his very eyes, he did not hesitate to pray in school. I defy any law or politician to deny him that right! I challenge every young person in America , and around the world, to realize that on April 20, 1999, at Columbine High School prayer was brought back to our schools. Do not let the many prayers offered by those students be in vain. Dare to move into the new millennium with a sacred disregard for legislation that violates your God-given right to communicate with Him. To those of you who would point your finger at the NRA — I give to you a sincere challenge.. Dare to examine your own heart before casting the first stone!
My daughter’s death will not be in vain! The young people of this country will not allow that to happen!”
– Darrell Scott

Keep your behavior excellent. 1 Peter 2:12
A good name is better than a good Ointment.  Ecclesiastes 7:1
An overseer must be above reproach. 1 Timothy 3:2
He was well spoken of by the brothers.  Acts 16:2

Let’s talk presidents.

When was the last man to hold that office that had an ounce of true character?

It has been a long time, and by that we would have to go back 130 years. We had some that would show signs at time but not for long. They would always fall back to what would get them reelected. Coolidge, Truman, Kennedy, Reagan all showed signs but would not stand on solid principles.

I guess we are all looking for a George Washington, Benjamin Rush, or a Thomas Jefferson type character. I guess God only made so many of them. I would think there are more out there but they are just hard to find. We need to look I would think first for a biblical type of character because without that we will end up with what we have had for the 17 years.

We have fallen into a place where our president can look us in the face and tell us he did not have sex with that women and we say that’s his private life. We had a president tell us that he had to abandon his free market principles to save the free market. If you can abandon the free market then you can abandon God’s principles.

Now we have a president who has twisted the truth about his true beliefs. No one really knows what he is all about. I do know I don’t listen to his own words– I watch his actions. I do not care what party he belongs to but this man is arrogant and is narcissistic. He, like so many others before him, is only interested in his legacy. Like so many others before him, it is a lot of power which leads to his greed. They will do whatever it take to hold on to their positions.

Let’s look at the executive order.

No president has the authority to sign an executive order and it become the law of the land. What part of 1st line of the constitution do they not understand. Article 1 section 1: All legislative Powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which consist of a Senate and House of Representatives. Do we have anything about the Executive branch or Judaical branch? NO we do not. We have heard all the time that past presidents have signed executive orders, I contend they are not legal. Just because people do something in the past that are not legal and are never called on it DOES NOT MAKE IT NOW LEGAL. We need for the senate and house of representatives to grow back bones and stand up to any president and if necessary bring him up on charges. We can no longer sit back and trust these people we sent to Washington. We need to be engaged.
2 Timothy 3:11-12 You ought to live holy and Godly lives, as we look forward to the day of God.

Remember Proverbs 29:2— When the righteous increase the people rejoice, but when a wicked man rules people groan.

And boy do we have some wicked people ruling in Washington now!!!!!

Proverbs 22:7 The rich rule over the poor, and the borrower becomes the lender’s slave.

When God speaks of the poor I do not believe he is talking about earthly things. I believe he is referring to heavenly or spiritual riches.

But you can apply the same to your earthly life. Mainly your material possessions.

Do not go into debt for unnecessary things.

Would it not be great if our government worked on the same idea. But no, the inside the beltway boneheads will not do that. They think the more money they spend on their districts the more votes they will get. The Bigger the nanny they are to us, the more they keep their plush jobs. The do not care about America, only themselves.

Oh there is that word again SELF.

You see we all have become so involved in our self we do not look out for each other. We are only looking out for what is in it for me. Sure we can do a fund raiser or something like that and then go home and feel so go good about our SELVES. We do not care how the people govern as long as we get our piece of the pie. We do not look past our little part of these great United States. We do not seem to care about the future of the USA. I really get tired of hearing it is for the children. Because if that was the case, why are we spending our children’s, grand children’s, and great grand children’s future right now.

Has any of us asked any elected reps how base line budgeting works, No. Because we do not care or we know the reps are going to lie to us anyway. Well here is a short course in it. Each Government department has a yearly budget. Well they have yearly increase of at least 4 percent no matter how far we are in a debt hole. Now let’s look at one year the tax money that comes in is good and there is extra money meaning more in taxes are taken in. So when that department budget is figured they can get 8 percent increase. The very next year we do not take in the same amount of dollars, therefor they only get a 4 percent increase in there budget. Now you will have one of the parties or the other screaming that the budget has been cut. They got a 4 percent increase so how the hell do these people in DC tell that the budget was cut when there is a 4 percent increase across the board. That is because we set on our butt and worry on who going to win some dumb reality show or who in Hollywood is doing who. Let us start doing some homework, holding the elected reps feet to the fire.

Demand the truth. Where in hell is our money going and for what.

Demand them to stop spending our money.

Demand an actual cut in the budget, not some smoke blown up our butts.

Demand we start using straight budgeting, spending only what is brought in.

Let us think in biblical terms Deuteronomy 15:6 For the Lord your God will bless you as he has promised you, and you will lend to many nations, BUT YOU WILL NOT BORROW : and you will rule over many nations but they will not rule over you.

Frugality produces Liberty,but spending produces slavery.

I want to take this post to explain where God has taken me. I would not very often talk about religion to anyone because I did not want to upset people. But since my son’s death over the last 2 and ½ years everything has changed. My walk with Jesus has brought me strength from the inside out. The only true thing that matters now is the Biblical principles in which I have had all of my life , but I was just too dumb to know it. Or maybe I was just too stubborn to face something I could not touch, feel, smell, or see–faith in God/Jesus.

In posts on this web site I will never compromise my biblical principals which I believe God has put in my heart through reading the Bible. I can have a question and in reading God’s word that answer will come, maybe not right away, but when I keep reading one day I will come across that answer. It will come out of nowhere but I will get it.

I am not here to beat you over the head with any of my principles and will never force anything or any ideas on you. I never want you to give up any principles or your free choice. For you see God has made you a free agent with free will. I will only present my principles and beliefs from my understanding as I read the Bible. I will never be politically correct, but I will give you the Biblical truth as God give it to me. I will always try to give you the Bible verse from which I have formed my opinion. Some of what I have to say may ruffle a lot of feathers, but I will guarantee you that I will not back down if the post has what I believe to be a problem in our culture.
