Our President vs. We The People

TAMPA / News Times Journal / - Our President and We the People have been weighed on the scales according to God’s righteousness and justice prevailing throughout the land. As proclaimed by Psalm 89:14, "Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne..."

Therefore, God’s verdict has been rendered, and on our present path, heed the Word of the Lord based on the book of Daniel Chapter 5 which exclaims, “Tekel: You have been weighed on the scales and found wanting.”

If we do not change course, we can expect to reap the rest of this passage which says “Mene: God has numbered the days of your reign and brought it to an end and Peres: Your kingdom is divided and given to the Medes and Persians.”

As is the case in which the final judgment or decree of any court is subject to review with a writ of certiorari, the execution and enforcement of such judgment or decree may result by the Judge rendering a stay of execution which postpones or averts the enforcement of a judgment being executed against a litigant who has lost a case.

Hence, this has a three-fold purpose which is as follows:

I have included an action alert at the end of this email for us to stop Obamacare at the state level from requiring every American to comply with the accounting requirement, which plans to collect $1 abortion surcharge from each premium payer to fund abortions.
A final call for God’s people to respond to the clarion call to repent and return to our first love—Jesus Christ so we may receive a stay of execution based on God’s verdict.
In this critical hour, God is speaking through many of His servants and He always confirms things based on the testimony of two or three witnesses according to Deuteronomy 19:15 and Matthew 18:16. The issue of abortion is the common denominator of all three prophetic words I am sharing with you in this email. Therefore, the three (3) timely prophetic words issued recently are as follows:

The first prophetic word was delivered by Jonathan Cahn, author of the book titled The Harbinger, that he delivered at the Presidential Inaugural Prayer Breakfast. This video can be accessed at the following link:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aed-zca52Ag&sns=fb

The second prophetic word is from Matt Lockett, Bound4LIFE Director; titled Divine Timeline which can be read by accessing the following link: http://bound4life.com/blog/2013/01/22/divine-deadline/

The third prophetic word is from Jeremiah Johnson who accurately details what God’s people must do in order to rule and reign based on God’s righteousness and justice during the next four years if we hope to stop reaping the curses of Deuteronomy 28 because of our rebellion and forsaking God our Creator, and His Son, Jesus Christ.

Based on the word Jeremiah Johnson received from the Lord; in the next four years God’s people must heed God’s warning concerning the following: 1) Abortion 2) Sexual Immorality in His Church 3) Tolerance and Rebellion 4) Hillary Clinton 5) Israel

This prophetic word from Jeremiah Johnson can be found in its entirety in writing or by a video presentation at http://www.chroniclesoftheunknowndreamer.com/ .

As far as the dream Jeremiah Johnson shares in his prophetic word proclaiming that the Lord is calling His people to build Him a House of Hope, rather than a House of Terror for these babies who would otherwise be aborted, I wept as I read what he wrote and watched his video presentation and knew what Jeremiah was saying was from God’s heart.

One of the many mandates the Lord has placed upon my heart is to build Him a “Haven of Hope.” This home will be a place of refuge for young mothers who decide to keep their babies they would otherwise abort.

This mandate the Lord has decreed to His people to build Him a House of Hope leads me to ask a question we should all search our hearts to answer which is this. Many of His people say they are against abortion, yet what are we going to “do” about it?

Yes, we must continue our fight against legislation and those individuals proliferating abortion to be the law of the land, however, His people must also address the issue of what shall we do for these babies who will enter this world by women who do not want them or have the means to care for them too.

Are God’s people prepared to form long lines to adopt these babies who would otherwise be aborted? Are we placing our money where our mouth is and building houses for these young unwed mothers who decide to keep their babies instead of aborting them so they can have a place to live with their babies until they can be taught to stand on their own?

It is not enough for us to fight against abortion, we must also answer the call from our heavenly Father to give these children a good, Godly home where their basic needs are met and they are loved unconditionally.

Even now we have many children in the system who have been abandoned by their parents, and as a result, are tossed to and fro from one temporary living arrangement to another. These children who are already born need good, Godly people to step up to the plate and provide them with a loving home where they can experience God’s love for them, have their physical needs met, and be brought up with the admonition of the Lord.

Last, but certainly not least, this email is a final call for His people to respond so we may receive a stay of execution based on God’s verdict.

Based on 2 Chronicles 7:14, God is beseeching His people to turn from our wicked ways by living consecrated lives according to His Word, not based on humanism which is what we deem right in our own eyes! God is calling His people to be set apart and live holy, because God is Holy. God is not looking for us to say we repent. Rather, He is looking for His people to be so grieved by the evil in our society that it propels us to do something about it!

In conclusion, God’s righteousness and justice can only prevail throughout our land if His people awake and arise from their slumber and become fully engaged in this spiritual battle for the hearts and souls of people in this nation.

As God’s Ekklesia we are called to rule and reign on the earth with Jesus Christ our King of Kings and Lord of Lords. We have been given the mandate to take dominion as we legislate and enact God’s government on earth as it is in heaven in order that God’s Kingdom prevails against the kingdom of darkness. Does our nation look like God’s Kingdom is prevailing against the kingdom of darkness seeking to kill, steal, and destroy everything we cherish?

God is counting on His Ekklesia to be His voice, hands, and feet based on our prayer Jesus told us to pray which is proclaimed in Matthew 6:9-13 which begins “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven…”

The only way God’s will can and will be accomplished on earth as it is in heaven is through His people He has called to be His army to bring His righteousness and justice throughout the land. We are God’s foot soldiers dressed for battle and we must arise and take back America from the hands of the enemy forces now!

In Part 2 of this series I will convey why abortion grieves our heavenly Father’s heart and how abortion plays an instrumental role in us losing our unalienable rights to Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of happiness people in America were blessed with by God, our Creator.

ACTION ALERT-STOP OBAMACARE IN YOUR STATE NOW!

This past weekend I attended a summit in Orlando Florida for grassroots leaders in the state of Florida where we were blessed by a visit with Matt Staver, Founder of Liberty Counsel, who came to give us an update on Obamacare. Guess what? When this unconstitutional mandate from people who think they are God goes into affect we will all have the shedding of innocent blood on our hands! Mr. Staver confirmed the following:

Nestled within the “individual mandate” in the Obamacare act — that portion of the Act requiring every American to purchase government — approved insurance or pay a penalty — is an “abortion premium mandate.” This mandate requires all persons enrolled in insurance plans that include elective abortion coverage to pay a separate premium from their own pockets to fund abortion. As a result, many pro-life Americans will have to decide between a plan that violates their consciences by funding abortion, or a plan that may not meet their health needs.

As a knowledgeable pro-life source on Capitol Hill informed LifeNews, as authorized by Obamacare, “The final rule provides for taxpayer funding of insurance coverage that includes elective abortion” and the change to longstanding law prohibiting virtually all direct taxpayer funding of abortions (the Hyde Amendment) is accomplished through an accounting arrangement described in the Affordable Care Act and reiterated in the final rule issued today.

“To comply with the accounting requirement, plans will collect a $1 abortion surcharge from each premium payer,”

Source: Fact-Check Web Site Re-Confirms: Obamacare Funds Abortions http://www.lifenews.com/2012/09/24/fact-check-web-site-re-confirms-obamacare-funds-abortions/

This is a clarion call to all believers in Jesus Christ to respond to if we do not want the shedding of innocent blood to be on all our hands based on Obamacare requiring every American to comply with the accounting requirement, which plans to collect $1 abortion surcharge from each premium payer! In other words, for every premium payer that pays for Obamacare, one dollar will go specifically to pay for the abortions of women. Do the math and this will equate to a bloodbath of epic proportions of the blood of innocent children if we do not stop this from happening on our watch now!

If you think the Spirit of Death and the Spirit of Suicide which has descended upon our nation coming through an open portal as a result of abortion in the land is horrific now, just wait until every working American funds abortion with our hard earned wages!

Therefore, please contact your state representatives, particularly your governor to say no to Obamacare in the state you currently reside; otherwise, we will have the blood of innocent children on all our hands!

Also, sign-up and gain access to the exclusive Block ObamaCare Exchanges War Room, organized by FreedomWorks, where you will gain access to the action map to find out what the exchanges are and how to stop ObamaCare in your state. Also you’ll find our blog which is updated with the latest news regarding health care. All of this is free!

To help stop Obamacare in your state go to http://blockexchanges.com now!

Together we can stop Obamacare dead in its tracks if we tell our elected leaders in our state to say no! However, most won’t because of the money they receive from the Federal Government to comply! However, if enough people take a stand now on this critical mandate, they will listen because they respond to the number of people being a voice on a particular issue! Please also forward this email to everyone you know. Thank you.

For the state of Florida, please call the following elected officials:

Governor Scott
(850) 488-7146

House Speaker Will Wetherford
(850) 717-5038

Senate President Don Gaetz
(850) 487-5001

Together we CAN make a difference for His Kingdom and America! Blessings until we meet again.

Old Testament Prophecy - Relevent For Today

"For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us;
And the government will rest on His shoulders;
And His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Eternal Father, Prince of Peace.
There will be no end to the increase of His government or of peace,
On the throne of David and over his kingdom,
To establish it and to uphold it with justice and righteousness
From then on and forevermore.
The zeal of the Lord of hosts will accomplish this.”
~ Isaiah 9:6-7 (NASB)

Today, January 21, 2013, American citizens celebrate the life achievements of the late Martin Luther King, Jr., who was an important civil rights activist and also an advocate of non-violent protests, becoming one of the youngest men to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. King’s most infamous speech “I Have a Dream” was delivered at a march on Washington, D.C. on August 28, 1963.

Needless to say, almost fifty (50) years later, the dream God placed on King’s heart has come to pass. Today, as we commemorate King’s birthday, Barack Hussein Obama II, another young Nobel Peace Prize recipient, is being sworn in as the 45^th President of the United States of America.

President Obama had a dream too, and he actually wrote a book about it titled, “Dreams from My Father.” President Obama has made his dream to -fundamentally transform the United States of America- very clear to the American people.

I ALSO have a dream from my Father that I feel led to share with you today. This is the Lord’s dream for America, which He has placed upon my heart concerning His vision to fundamentally transform the United States of America to come into alignment with His government as our King of kings and Lord of lords…

I -ALSO- Have a Dream (NOTE: a dream of the author)

The late Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. boldly declared, “I have a dream!” I also boldly declare, “I -ALSO- have a dream!” My dream for our great country, the United States of America, is to radically rededicate itself to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! For America to soar like an eagle and exalt itself once again above all the nations and earn the respect and awe of the entire world.

I have a dream…I envision a time when America’s families will reunite with one another. Where we will learn what the word commitment truly means. The term “nuclear family” will encompass great-grandparents, grandparents, moms and dads, aunts and uncles, sisters and brothers, sons and daughters, nieces, nephews, and cousins. Same-sex marriages will not even be talked about. Love will prevail and enable each of us to support one another spiritually, financially, and physically. Nursing homes, assisted-living facilities, and daycare centers will become things of the past. I dream of a time when both parents wouldn’t have to earn a living just to survive, and if both parents felt inspired to pursue a career that brings them passion, it would be no problem because there would be family members to lend a helping hand. Children would be disciplined in love, they would have structure, and they would learn firsthand about their family heritage from their elderly family members. The term latchkey would be a distant memory. As a result, children would learn to honor their mother and father, respect their elders, and have reverence for adult authority again.

I have a dream…of television, newspapers, magazines, and radio stations all broadcasting things that edify our society and no longer serve as the number one source of moral decay in our culture. I dream of a day when families have myriad programs and movies that are wholesome, inspirational, and thought-provoking, allowing family viewing to not only be permissible, but welcomed and truly acceptable for all family members. We wouldn’t have to be concerned with little Johnny or Sally learning bad things from their favorite cartoons based on self-centered activities and exhibiting violent behaviors that are mirrored by our children in their everyday interactions. Our children would see their favorite characters emulate respect for one another, helping one another to be the best they can possibly be. Newspapers and television reporters would seek and report the truth on all issues. Since this is a dream, there would be nothing to report on within our country but stories of honor, courage, and hope. Radio stations would play inspirational ballads revealing the very heart and soul of the artist, not the pornography depicted in rap lyrics and videos. Our children would not be tainted with programming that features gratuitous violence and self-centered characters, teen programs with provocative clothes and situations, pornographic pop-ups on the Web. Toys, t-shirts, video games, and school books—they all fight against the virtues and values you hold most dear and want to instill in your kids.

I have a dream…that every man, woman, and child would be well fed, able to drink fresh water, and have a house to live in with a white picket fence. Everyone would have plenty of nutritious food and, as a result, would have healthy lives. Tragic diseases, such as cancer and diabetes, would not exist. Every home in America would emulate the love that God intended the home to represent. America would be a place of peace and tranquility, a place of refuge from the world, where relationships are warm and close, and every person is cherished as a unique creation of God. We would encourage and strengthen each other, and love and laughter would be rampant, not turmoil, miscommunication, anger, strife, and despair.

I have a dream…that every man, woman, and child would be treated with dignity and respect despite their economic status or the color of their skin.

I have a dream…that our politicians would serve the American people because they love our country and want to preserve and better our country for their children and grandchildren’s future. There would be no bribes, corruption, lies, cover-ups, or unethical behavior. All politicians would serve as unto the Lord.

I have a dream…that no one would be in debt, especially our government. People would live within their means, and no one would live paycheck to paycheck. Families would save for things they want and need, and paying on credit would be eradicated from our vocabulary. Instant gratification would be a term no one could identify with. Instead, we would know the pleasure of finally receiving what has been long saved and worked for.

I have a dream…where elderly people are not forced to work to survive and have to decide between eating or paying for their medicines and health care.

I have a dream…that our troops and veterans would be treated as heroes and taken care of because they put their lives on the line for you and me to keep our freedom, not forgotten in empty casket memorials.

I have a dream…that illegal aliens would take the necessary steps to become citizens of the United States and the official language would be English.

Last, but certainly not least, is the biggest dream of all…that God would once again be welcomed in the public square and every man, woman, and child would know about Him, accept Him, honor Him, and live to glorify Him.

Together we CAN make a difference for His Kingdom and America! Blessings until we meet again.

Sandy Hook Elementary Tragedy -

The Day America’s Heart Broke Once Again

By now, you ready for the truth of why we have these violent
     copycat shootings such as the shooting which took place in the movie
     theatre in Aurora, Colorado and the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting.
     If so, you will want to read this article titled, The Day America’s Heart
     Broke Once Again. People in America must address the “root” problem of why
     these senseless, unimaginable, and violent shootings are occurring. Guns
     are not the problem! Rather, it is the state of spiritual darkness
     inhabiting the hearts and souls of the people using the guns that are the
     real issue at hand. Moreover, instead of having a conversation about gun
     control, we need to be addressing the prolific epidemic of our young
     people being doped up with prescription drugs being issued by their mental
     health care providers causing violent and impulsive behavior, including
     suicide. This coupled with the mind control they are under as they play
     violent video games, watch movies and television beset with more violence,
     sex, and profanity also plays a critical role as well. Last, but certainly
     not least, the devastating effect of “shattered dreams” in their lives as
     they seek to cope with their broken hearts and broken lives due to divorce.
     To read this article in its entirety click here: The Day America’s Heart
     Broke Once Again By Donna M. Rogers Angel of Love and Light Ministries www.angeloffaith777.com
On Friday, December 14, 2012, what started out as just another ordinary day
     similar to 9-11, quickly turned ominous and woefully wicked beyond
     comprehension, when once again we learned that evil is real and does
     exist. Tragically, a situation we have witnessed far too often reared its
     ugly head when an unconscionable, unthinkable, unimaginable, horrific
     event claimed the lives of 28 people, including 20 children, and six
     adults at the Sandy Hook Elementary School in Connecticut. This demonic
     act of violence at the hands of yet another young, obviously troubled
     adult, altered the lives and destiny of many people forever, and we will
     never be the same. As the days ahead unfold these individuals who lost
     their lives, will not be just another faceless victim of a senseless
     tragedy.
They were real people who had hopes and dreams for their future,
     which was shattered when their lives ended all too soon on that fateful
     day. In the days ahead we will continue to see their faces, hear about
     their lives, and fully comprehend the great loss for not only the families
     of the victims, but also for the rest of us who had our hearts ripped out
     of our chest as we heard the grim realities of the news reports. Perhaps
     your children are still in school, and fear for their safety has now
     gripped your heart. There is not a parent alive who cannot think of and
     grieve for all who were lost that day. Especially, as we reflect and
     remember our own children when they were in first grade—who personify pure
     innocence, joy, and are spontaneous in their behavior.
Unfortunately, as a result of their trusting nature believing the best of people and
     situations, they are also one of the most vulnerable members of our
     society to be targeted by people who have nefarious intentions and seek to
     inflict harm on them. This fact alone causes us to anguish knowing they
     were utterly defenseless against their tormentor. I, like many of you, are
     feeling God’s anguish and weeping His tears, as our broken hearts reflect
     His broken heart. Moreover, we are searching for answers of why this
     unimaginable tragedy happened. As I compose this writing, I am weeping as
     my heart breaks over the consequences of our nation’s moral depravity
     which can no longer be denied. I keep hearing the Lord telling me three
     things concerning what has transpired during this time of great sadness.
     First, I keep hearing the words Jesus spoke in Matthew 19:14 "Let the
     little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of
     heaven belongs to such as these."
Second, I keep hearing simply “Jesus wept.” Jesus is weeping just as He did when
     his friend Lazarus died and Mary and Martha believed it was too late when Jesus finally showed up. Jesus is weeping just as He did before God allowed Jerusalem and the
     Temple to be destroyed in 70 AD at the hands of the Roman army because of
     His people’s rebellion and spiritual harlotry. Third, I keep hearing the
     words spoken by the prophet Ezekiel, which is the cry of God’s heart for
     His people in America for a time such as this, which He wants me to
     proclaim at this time. “… ‘Thus you say, “If our transgressions and our
     sins lie upon us, and we pine away in them, how can we then live?”’ Say to
     them: ‘As I live,’ says the Lord God, ‘I have no pleasure in the death of
     the wicked, but that the wicked turn from his way and live. Turn, turn
     from your evil ways! For why should you die, O house of Israel?” ~ Ezekiel
     33:10-11 (NKJV)
Unfortunately for all of us, when God lifts His right hand
     of protection off a nation who has openly declared He is not welcomed and
     because His people are not living holy, the enemy of our souls takes full
     advantage. Just read the story of Job and you will know this to be true.
     Moreover, even though Job was blameless, God allowed Satan to sift him to
     test Job’s allegiance to Him. Furthermore, when God lifts His hand of
     protection off a nation it is part of His judgment which affects both the
     righteous and the wicked. It affects everyone including woman and children.
     See what God, says to His people in Ezekiel 9:4-6 below. And, before you
     say that this is the God of the Old Testament we are told in Hebrews 13:8,
     “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.” And, Malachi
     3:6, proclaims, “…For I am the LORD, I do not change…” “…and the Lord said
     to him, "Go through the midst of the city...and put a mark on the
     foreheads of the men who sigh and cry over all the abominations that are
     done within it." To the others..."Go...through the city and
     kill; do not let your eye spare, nor have any pity. Utterly slay old and
     young men, maidens and little children and women; but do not come near
     anyone on whom is the mark; and begin at My sanctuary." ~ Ezekiel
     9:4-6 (NKJV) Notice in the above passage of Scripture those who are spared
     from being killed. It is those who sigh and cry out to God in anguish over
     all the abominations in our land— abortion, same sex marriage,
     pornography, child molestation, sexual immorality, homosexuality, etc.
     Also, notice God is telling Ezekiel to start at His sanctuary—His church,
     because we are called to live holy, for God is holy. Moreover, we know
     what He expects from those who are called by His name as is clearly
     spelled out in His Word. In addition, just because we cry out to God and are
     tremendously grieved by the abominations happening in our land, does not
     mean we will escape from being affected by God’s judgment due to God’s cup
     of iniquity overflowing concerning our nation. As I have said before, but
     bears repeating, we must all pray Psalm 91 over ourselves and our families
     and cover ourselves with the blood of Jesus morning and night. Both Daniel
     and Jeremiah cried out to God and interceded to Him on behalf of their
     people, however, they were still exiled and affected by many things
     outside their control. Moreover, they both were protected and used greatly
     by God for His purposes to prevail, and lived to write about it.
Now that I have shared the word of the Lord, I am shifting your attention back to
     the shooting in Connecticut. I am haunted and disturbed in the deep abyss
     of my soul by the words spoken by the children who were hiding in the
     bathroom of their classroom as their teacher did her best to protect these
     precious innocent children she was given the responsibility to teach. As
     this Sandy Hook teacher begged the children to be quiet she said, "I
     thought we were all going to die. I told the kids I love them and I was so
     happy they were my students... I said anyone who believed in the power of
     the prayer, we need to pray and those who don't believe in prayer, think
     happy thoughts.” How did the children respond as they were faced with this
     life altering situation? They asked, “Can we go see if anyone is out
     there... I just want Christmas... I don't want to die, I just want to have
     Christmas." 1 I have been meditating on the words these children
     spoke over and over in my mind trying to make sense of their response.
     These children were scared beyond comprehension and were faced with the
     potential to experience unimaginable horrors which could have very well
     have been their final moments on this earth, yet they did not say, “I want
     my mommy and daddy.” They did not call out to God to help them. They
     responded with what they have been taught “I just want…” All they wanted
     was Christmas, which in the mind of most children that age has just become
     another opportunity to get presents, while they dream of Santa Claus, and
     an opportunity to eat all the holiday candies and cookies. Why does their
     reaction haunt and disturb me so much you may wonder? After all they are
     just being kids you may be thinking. I am going to share something very
     personal with you that you do not know about me unless you read my first
     book titled, “Shattered Dreams—Wake Up America Before It Is Too Late!”
     where I candidly share my testimony. When I was a small child, about the
     same age as these children who were affected by what happened at the Sandy
     Hook Elementary School, I too was faced with the existence of evil. I was
     abandoned by both parents due to divorce, which to a large extent was
     caused by the generational curses in my family line. As such, I
     experienced many unspeakable horrors as a result, even though I, like the
     children at the Sandy Hook Elementary School, was an innocent victim in
     circumstances I had no control over. One such encounter with the forces of
     evil was when I was repeatedly raped beginning at the tender young age of
     four by a teenage boy who lived in the foster home I was placed in. This
     teenager was mentally disturbed and from a broken home, just like the
     young gunman who perpetuated this unimaginable horror on these children.
     Before this teenager would rape me he would hang me upside down by ropes
     which were tied around my ankles and fasten me upside down onto a hook
     that was on an antique piece of furniture. He would then take the blade of
     the knife he held in his hand and run it up and down my body telling me he
     would kill me if I told anyone. This would set in motion the worst
     nightmares a child could endure, and every time the woman who was my
     caretaker left the house for extended periods of time, I would once again
     be traumatized by this individual and experience fear and trepidation that
     no words can adequately describe. Therefore, I know and have experienced
     firsthand the tremendous fear those children faced, especially the ones
     who felt helpless as they faced their executioner. They felt fear they
     never knew was possible as terror gripped their hearts as one by one,
     their classmates were slaughtered before their very eyes.
Tragically, they had time to realize they would never see their moms and dads ever again. I
     cannot begin to tell you how much I have relived their pain over and over
     in my mind, as I weep for the loss of these precious children, their
     teachers, and their parents. I would give anything, including my life, to
     have been able to intervene on their behalf that day. As far as the
     response from the children who were hiding in the bathroom of their
     classroom with their teacher, who said, “I don’t want to die--I just want
     to have Christmas.” Their response troubles me greatly for this reason. It
     is my opinion, based on the fact that I was in a fearful, life threatening
     circumstance at their age, that these children, who said they wanted
     Christmas, should have said, “I want my mommy, I want my daddy!” Or, they
     would have cried out, “God help us!” Instead, they said, “I don’t want to
     die, I want Christmas.” I can assure you when I was their age and I
     literally experienced hell on earth, I was not saying “I want Christmas!”
     I was pleading, begging, and sobbing for my mom to help me who was not
     there—anyone to help me, someone greater than myself who could stop the
     pain caused by unspeakable horrors that I faced. That someone I was really
     begging for to help me turned out to be Jesus Christ, although at the time
     I didn’t know anything about Him. It is also ironic that like the children
     at the Sandy Hook Elementary School, I too grew up in a quaint little New
     England town that consisted of a bright red gas station, a post office, a
     two-room schoolhouse, and, of course, a white Episcopal church that was so
     typical of these small New England towns. It was the kind of town that you
     would envision on the most beautiful postcard of New England landscapes.
     It was the type of community that parents purposely moved to so their
     children can be safe and prosper without the fear of being abducted,
     harmed, or being killed that children face in today’s society because of
     the spiritual, ethical, and moral decay prevalent in our society which is
     a direct result of the state of spiritual darkness inhabiting the hearts
     and souls of the people within our nation. It is also ironic that it was
     in this same small New England town during a Christmas play that our
     public school was part of that I first learned about a baby lying in a
     manger called Jesus. And, as the people in the church we were in, sang the
     song titled, Children, Go Where I Send Thee which still plays over and
     over in my mind, and Joy to the World, I didn’t understand or comprehend
     how anyone could feel joy and talk about peace on earth, when my life was
     afflicted with nothing but pain, fear, loneliness, and despair. Do we
     truly realize how many of our young people, especially our young adults,
     live with this type of despair deep within the recesses of their souls?
     This is why our suicide rate is at an all time high with our young
     people—they feel they have no hope. Most often, everything seems to be
     well and goes unnoticed by most people, including their loved ones, until
     something sets off the volcanic eruption of rage they have stuffed deep
     within themselves.
Depression is at an all time high for people in our
     nation, and depression is caused by anger, even righteous anger, turned
     inward upon the individual afflicted by despair. Some of these wounded
     individuals finally reach a breaking point and just snap. These are
     individuals who have been wounded so greatly emotionally, physically, and
     sexually throughout their lives, and unless they receive the proper help
     and healing they need, sometimes they seek to inflict harm on others,
     because hurting people always hurt other people. In th e case of the
     Connecticut shooter the experts proclaim Adam, the shooter, did not snap
     which I find to be very troublesome as well. 2 I know what I am talking
     about because I lived the majority of my life being afflicted by the
     tormentor of our souls with severe depression, major anxiety, and despair
     beyond comprehension as my life went spiraling out of control. I would go
     from one mental health professional to another, as they would give me more
     and more drugs to cope with the pain and anguish in my life. You name it I
     tried it all, anything to help me cope and ease the pain of my existence.
     And, nothing worked until I came to the end of myself and discovered I
     needed someone to save me from living this hell on earth and His name is
     Jesus Christ. It was only by the transforming power of the Holy Spirit and
     God’s love that I was finally delivered, healed, and set free from the
     tormentor of my soul. I was set free from depression (which runs in my
     family line); I was set free from anxiety, fear, and trepidation. I was
     set free from alcoholism—no twelve step program needed which is only more
     bondage. I was set free from the trauma and pain I experienced as an
     innocent child at the hands of many people who were used by the enemy to
     commit acts of evil, who were themselves afflicted by the forces of evil.
     I, like countless others, became the recipient of God’s promises spoken of
     by Isaiah the prophet in Isaiah 61:3. Therefore, nothing on earth compares
     to the hope I have found in Jesus, and for this reason I owe Him my total
     allegiance for what He did for me, for all of us! Jesus was born and came
     to the earth for many reasons, however, one of the reasons He came was to
     set us free from the snares of the enemy. He came so that all who put
     their faith and trust in Him could have beauty instead of ashes; we could
     have the oil of joy instead of mourning; we could wear the garment of
     praise instead of the spirit of heaviness (oppression and depression).

LGBT Domestic Terrorist Attacks on Christians

Is the Worldwide Christian Holocaust Coming To America?
ELBRIDGE, N.Y., /Christian Newswire/ -- Open Doors USA President Carl Moeller told The Christian Post. "In my mind today, the picture I have is a church in a diabetic coma that has gorged itself on the sweets of affluence, materialism, and the idolatry of worshipping the materialistic world. That diabetic coma is now life threatening. We as a church are at the point of death -- not the church in the Middle East. We are the ones who can no longer rouse ourselves to even pray for an hour on behalf of things that God would have us pray for."

The members at BibleStudySpace, knows about the Christian diabetic coma church in America. BibleStudySpace.Com is a Christian social network with a purpose, to create awareness about the Christian persecution and holocaust taking place around the world. The silent holocaust of Christians is not reported by Fox, CNN, NBC or other secular news media. The war on Christianity is ignored by Republican and Democrat political leaders, and the entertainment industry has been running a propaganda war against Christians for years

The CNN, MSNBC Secular Media is promoting terrorist attacks against Christians. Maybe the Floyd Corkins assassination attempt on Tony Perkins will wake up the Christian Church in the nation? When will CNN, MSNBC and other secular networks stop giving the LGBT leaders a platform to preach their hate speech and violence towards Christians. Their has been thousands of threatening messages and acts of violence against Christians. It is only a matter of time before another LGBT gay activist like Floyd Corkins, sets out to shoot up a Chick Fil A or Christian Church. Thanks to the Left wing agenda of the White House, Democrats, CNN, MSNBC and other secular networks.

LGBT Gay activist Bradley Balof, a Chicago public school teacher incites a crowd of gay men to hurl expletives at Christians. Do we have gay activist teachers promoting hate speech towards Christian children in our schools. Pro-homosexual activists attacked the Christian Liberty Academy throwing two large, concrete brick pavers through its glass doors. Gay publications, gay newspapers and gay bars are hotbeds of anti-Christian hate speech and they encourage to violence against Christians.

The Propaganda War Against Bible Believing Christians
It took CNN two hours and 45 minutes before mentioning the shooting. MSNBC Chris Matthews said," No one died, thanks to the security guard who subdued the intruder and took a bullet in the process. ABC was the only broadcast network that offered a full story on the FRC office shooting on Wednesday. On NBC Nightly News, Brian Williams gave the story just 17 seconds. On CBS Evening News, substitute anchor Bob Schieffer offered 20 seconds.
The purpose of this article is to call for preparation, not by hoarding food and supplies, but preparation of the heart, mind and spirit that we may be able to stand in our faith. I hope Christians are not waiting for the Fox News Republicans or Left wing Democrats to save them. Forget about the CNN, MSNBC, news media, they are promoting the LGBT Domestic Terrorists hate agenda. Do you think the Christian diabetic coma church in america will stop them? Like Carl Moeller said, " We are the ones who can no longer rouse ourselves to even pray for an hour on behalf of things that God."

What can we do, to stop the Christian Holocaust around the world? Christian must do everything in love, like the Bible tell us. Thousands of gays are also killed around the world, because of so called Christians who hate and kill them. When we pray, we are telling God what we need. But we need to act and God will act on Our Behalf. Contact the FBI, tell them to investigate LGBT Domestic Terrorists. We must also pray and act to stop the Christian persecution and holocaust taking place around the world.

Who Are ‘Muslims’ & What Do They Believe? This Is the History Surrounding Muhammad & Islam by Billy Hallowell

Editor’s note: This article will be part of a mini-series about Islam, a faith system that often finds itself at the center of media headlines and public scrutiny. In light of recent geopolitical events, TheBlaze will be analyzing the religious system to help readers better understand its key components.

Islam is one of the world’s most popular religions, but it’s also among the most complex and misunderstood faith systems. This fact remains, despite its prominence in terms of the number of adherents and its prevalence in mainstream news media. When considering an overall analysis, there are a wide variety of reasons why the Muslim faith is so difficult to pin down. To begin, political events (September 11 and international terror incidents) have helped to color the public’s sometimes negative perception of the faith. As a result, there’s an overwhelming tendency to view the Muslim religion as a singular entity — however, this oversimplifies the dynamics...CLICK Here for more from The Blaze

Real Christians Say 'No' to Bullying and Homosexual Behavior

COLUMBUS, Ohio, /Christian Newswire/ -- A coalition of pro-family leaders today urges Christian families to be faithful to biblical morality and discerning in the face of false and irresponsible accusations. Christianity and traditional values are not the cause of teen suicides, and attempts to link the two are deceptive and will ultimately harm children. "Gay" activists nationwide are fueling an effort to indict traditional moral values as "guilty until proven innocent" in some bullying incidents involving teens. Their proposed solutions end up sexualizing teens at young ages into known high-risk behaviors and silencing concerned parents.

Now, the U.S. Department of Education seems to be joining the effort, setting the stage for implicating traditional morality as the cause of some cases of bullying, and using the force of federal government to force pro-homosexual, pro-"transgender" indoctrination programs onto local schools.

"Just say no" to these outrageous and unsubstantiated claims, said Buddy Smith, Executive Vice President, American Family Association (www.afa.net). "Bullying can be prevented without endorsing homosexual behavior. Activist adults essentially are saying that American parents who want their kids to avoid high risk homosexual sex acts and remain abstinent until traditional marriage, are harming kids. This is preposterous, and local parents and communities need to resist enforced political correctness."

Authentic Christians will remember several key concepts from Scripture:

1. Homosexual behavior is always a sin, God's plan for sexuality is male/female marriage, and God has not changed His mind about this (Genesis 19; Leviticus 18:22; Matthew 19:4-6; Romans 1:24-27; 1 Corinthians 6:9-11)

2. Jesus described marriage as the union of one man and one woman, and that humans were created male and female "from the beginning." Gender change is a defiant and ungrateful sin against God's direction and design (Matthew 19:4-6)

3. Violence against children is wrong. Jesus was very clear in his protection of children and also had harsh words for those who would forbid children from knowing His truth and love ( Luke 17:2; Luke 18: 15-16). "Gay" activists want to keep children from knowing, loving and following the real Jesus Christ. At the very least, schools must not interfere in the desires of parents to raise their own children to follow Christ and live out biblical morality.

4. School boards aid child corruption and insult faithful families when they allow "gay-straight alliances," homosexual indoctrination programs, permission for use of opposite sex restrooms, and any of the other ridiculous demands of the "gay" lobby.

"None of this is related to the real issue of bullying," said Linda Harvey, president of Mission America ( www.missionamerica.com), who has been monitoring the homosexual agenda directed to youth for fifteen years." Any incidents of bullying and name-calling can be punished without forcing acceptance of offensive behaviors. Communities must not allow themselves to be manipulated into supporting pro-homosexual bullying prevention plans, and believers in Jesus Christ need to stand up against this corruption of youth.

"Traditional morality is not responsible for harassing speech. Are healthy nutrition programs or the First Lady's anti-obesity initiative responsible for slurs and insults to overweight students? Of course not," Harvey said. "Bullies act for a variety of reasons, and schools need to punish the behaviors, not become the thought police. Administrators who use good judgment will refuse to aid and abet false accusations."

"It's time that extremists stop exploiting tragedy to push a selfish political agenda," said J. Matt Barber, Director of Cultural Affairs of Liberty Counsel (www.lc.org). "Liberal pressure groups have been shameless. They use talk of 'bullying' as a Trojan Horse to silence traditional values. Yes, anti-bullying policies are appropriate and necessary, but we a need broad, comprehensive anti-bullying strategy; not legislation rooted in segregation and discrimination, which singles out one special interest group for preferred treatment over others. Ironically, this unseemly political push actually amounts to 'Bull Connor bullying' on the part of homosexual activists."

Traditional values always help families and students, not the opposite, as extremists are trying to claim.

Rick Perry Joins Some Republican Presidential Candidates by Signing Pro-Life Pledge

Texas Governor Rick Perry has become the latest presidential candidate to sign the Susan B. Anthony List Pro-life Presidential Leadership Pledge. Governor Perry joins Michele Bachmann, Thad McCotter, Ron Paul, Tim Pawlenty, Rick Santorum, and Newt Gingrich in committing to be a true leader for Life in the White House if elected President.

In signing the Pledge, Governor Perry remarked:"I not only pledge to protect unborn life, but have a record of doing so in Texas. I have long advocated adoption as an alternative to abortion in order to protect unborn children."

Click here to check out his signed pledge on our website - and don’t forget to add your name to the list of over 22,000 voters who have signed the Citizen’s Pledge.

As you know, the SBA List has asked all declared presidential candidates to sign our Pro-life Leadership Pledge. Signers commit to:

Nominate only constitutionalist Judges,
Select only pro-life appointees for relevant Cabinet and Executive Branch positions,
Permanently end all taxpayer funding of abortion both at home and abroad, including defunding Planned Parenthood abortion providers, and
Advance and sign into law a Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act to protect unborn children who are capable of feeling pain from abortion.

Warren, when pro-life presidential candidates swept the Ames Iowa Straw Poll earlier this month, the message could not have been anymore clear to the media, the Republican Party, and the rest of the nation: Life matters, and only an authentic pro-life leader will be able to defeat President Obama in 2012. That’s why we’re going to need all hands on deck in laying the groundwork for a pro-life victory in 2012.

Will you start by signing the Pro-life Citizen’s Pledge and then sending an email to at least 10 of your pro-life family, friends and neighbors asking them to sign as well?

We’ve got to swell the ranks of the pro-life army if we’re going to achieve victory next November. Getting another candidate Pledge-signer is a great step, but now it’s time for the grassroots to answer the call and sign the Citizen’s Pledge.

Growing Persecution of Christians in Nigeria

Open Doors USA Calls on Christians in the West to Support Suffering Believers through Prayer, Ordering Special Wristbands

SANTA ANA /Christian Newswire/ -- Muslim extremists, along with members of the Nigerian army, allegedly killed 24 Christians during mid-August in Nigeria's Plateau state, according to Compass Direct News. On Monday in the city of Jos, CNN reported clashes between Muslims and Christians resulted in at least 20 deaths. There were also reports of injuries and burnt vehicles and shops.

Christians in Nigeria have faced increased persecution in recent years. The forceful implementation of Sharia (Islamic law) in 12 northern states remains a great challenge for the church. Extremist Islamic groups, using violence as a means to achieving Muslim dominance, have increased their activities. Despite all of the violence, more churches are reaching Muslims with the gospel and the number deciding to follow Christ is increasing. "As our brothers and sisters in Nigeria face increased persecution, it is vital that we pray for them," says Open Doors USA President/CEO Dr. Carl Moeller. "Christians, especially those living in the north, are living in constant fear of being attacked by extremists; they are not able to worship in peace." Northern Nigeria holds the No. 23 spot on Open Door's 2011 World Watch List of 50 countries where Christians face the most severe persecution. Christians in the conflict areas of Nigeria request prayer above anything else.

Please pray for:

Comfort for Christians who have lost loved ones or have been made homeless through violence
Thank God that the church is becoming more united as a result of persecution
Wisdom and courage for church leaders reaching out to their Muslim neighbors and caring for converts.

Nigerian Christians are hardly the only believers facing persecution. Over 70 percent of the world's 6.8 billion people live in countries with restrictions on religion. Nov. 13 is the International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church (IDOP) in the United States. This year Open Doors USA is encouraging Christians in the West to be "One With Them" through a special on-going campaign."According to the Bible, when one part of the body suffers, we all suffer," says Kenny Luck, founder of Every Man Ministries. "This is why it is so important for us to be One With Them in prayer."

One With Them is a call to action to unite with persecuted believers, not just on IDOP but during the months leading up to that special day. Through prayer and advocacy, Christians in the United States are urged to join millions who share our faith but not our freedom. One way Christians in the United States can show their support for the persecuted is through One With Them wristbands. Wearing the black, flexible silicone wristband that looks like barbed wire is a great conversation starter. The wristbands provide an opportunity to explain to others about the plight of persecuted believers. Kenny Luck says he is wearing a wristband as a show of solidarity. In the last month, 25,000 wristbands have been sent out to churches, church leaders, small groups and individuals.

To order the wristbands, visit www.OneWithThem.com. Two of them will be free of charge -- one extra to share with a friend. Additional wristbands can be ordered for a fee with 100 percent of the funds going to support persecuted Christians. As one of the lead agencies promoting the International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church, Open Doors is focusing on providing materials for Christians to use for the Nov. 13 event that will be observed by millions of Christians in the United States and around the globe. Materials in the free online kit include bulletin inserts, a pastor's guide, videos, prayer points, testimonies from persecuted Christians, Bible passages on persecution and lessons learned from suffering believers.

An estimated 100 million Christians worldwide suffer interrogation, arrest and even death for their faith in Christ, with millions more facing discrimination and alienation. Open Doors supports and strengthens believers in the world's most difficult areas through Bible and Christian literature distribution, leadership training and assistance, Christian community development, prayer and presence ministry and advocacy on behalf of suffering believers.

African-American Churches Called on to Confront Low Participation in World Missions

The Mission Society's Richard Coleman Addresses Causes and Remedies

NORCROSS, Ga., /Christian Newswire/ -- While African-American churches in the United States have very little participation in world missions, these congregations are uniquely poised to have a big impact on global evangelism, according to Richard Coleman, an African-American evangelical leader and missions expert. Coleman, director of candidacy and mobilization for The Mission Society ( www.themissionsociety.org), is calling on African-American churches to confront their long-standing lack of involvement in missions and break down the barriers holding them back from participating.

Estimates have showed African-Americans typically represent less than 1 percent of all full-time missionaries from the U.S. African-American churches have not been involved in cross-cultural missions for several reasons, according to Coleman. "Black churches must often help members of their own congregation with food, utility bills and other needs that majority churches don't have to worry about to the same degree," said Coleman. "It's not a bad thing that black churches help their own communities," he said. "They often have very different needs that force them to underemphasize world missions."

Lack of understanding of missions is another reason. "For example, when some blacks think of missionaries, they think of the older ladies who wear white dresses and visit the sick," said Coleman. Other factors Coleman cited that have contributed to the low missions participation rate by African-American churches include an overemphasis on personal prosperity and fear of the unknown or of leaving their comfort zone.Coleman said one reason African-Americans are positioned for greater involvement in world missions is because they identify with suffering. "When you look at black history, there's a lot of suffering," Coleman said. "People around the world have heard that story and have seen the overcoming of struggles. Black churches have a message of encouragement for the world."

Gospel choirs are another unique opportunity black churches can contribute to missions. "If you look at Poland, Japan, Sweden, black gospel music is very popular and a great tool to share the gospel," Coleman said. To get more involved in missions, Coleman said, African-American churches should be willing to learn, partner with other churches that have successful missions programs. And they should pray.

The best advice Coleman has for African-American congregations interested in being used by God in missions? "Spend time and ask God: 'In what communities and groups would you have us be involved?'" he said. Coleman, who joined The Mission Society in 2006, is among 400 invitees from the United States who will participate in the Third Lausanne Congress on World Evangelization in Cape Town, South Africa, Oct. 16-25. Before joining The Mission Society, Coleman served as director of missions at a mega-church in the Greater Atlanta metropolitan area. He has also taught mission classes and planned and led short-term mission trips to several countries, including Kenya, Honduras, Canada and the Dominican Republic.

Founded in 1984 in the Wesleyan tradition, The Mission Society recruits, trains and sends Christian missionaries to minister around the world. At present, it has more than 200 missionaries in 38 countries. The Mission Society develops diverse programs and ministries in accordance with its missionaries' unique callings and gifts, ranging from well-drilling and the arts to more traditional ministries such as teaching English and church planting. Its church ministry department provides seminars, workshops, and mentoring for congregations in the United States and overseas, helping equip churches for strategic outreach in their own communities and throughout the world.
