The Bible says, “Stand fast in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.” (Galatians 5:1)

Ladies and Gentlemen: The following document is the reason you and I, in America, are free:

“When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitles them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

Lawful Protest- Or Socialist Anarchy- 1

Violent protests have broken out across America; supposedly because a black man, George Floyd, was killed by a white, Minneapolis policeman.  There have been killings by the demonstrators as well as the destruction of much property, owned by people of all colors of skin.  If this was about fixing so-called “racial strife”, why has the property and lives of black persons also been destroyed?

Even if we do seek to avenge unlawful acts, but do it in an unlawful way, what is to keep someone else from later doing the same to us?  This is what produces turbulence in a country:  And this kind of anarchical activity can only ultimately result in enslavement to a dictator.  The Bible says,

“There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.” (Proverbs 14:12)

No!  We can only fix injustice by restoring Biblical order.  Only this will produce peace in a society!

I even heard one person try to justify all this rioting by saying our Forefathers did the same thing at the Boston Tea Party.  Talk about being ignorant of our history!

Our American Founding Fathers did Continue reading →

Do We Like Our New Socialism- 1

In 1976 a Russian pilot in the Communists’ Air Force flew a Russian MiG-25 Foxbat—believed to be the best jet fighter they had then—to Japan, asking for asylum in the United States.  He had been schooled in the best Russian schools of socialism and was considered to be one of the best models they had of a completely socialistic man.  But as he got a little older he began to see the inconsistencies in what the Communist Party leaders had told him.  His material gains and his lifestyle were not anything like what they had promised him.  And, while they had taught him that America was the “land of darkness”, he felt that, if he could keep this new MiG fighter intact, our government would want to dissect it and know its capabilities; thus, he would have something with which to bargain and hope to gain a better position in life in America than he had known in Russia.  President Gerald Ford immediately granted him asylum; and our government assigned to him a man who began to show him our American way of life.  The pilot later talked about how he just couldn’t believe how the meat markets here were full of all different cuts of meat and fresh vegetables; because in Russia, under their socialistic system, they could only get fresh meat once in a while—and had to stand in line for hours to get into the food stores to get some of it.  Over time, he came to realize that life here was much, much better than it was in Russia; simply because people were free to make their own decisions about what they would work at, where they would work, and who they would work with.  That gave people the incentive to work, and thus, our lifestyle of free enterprise was so very much better than those under socialism.  He figured out that the socialists had lied to him about which system was best.

Is it wrong for a Governor of a state to stop others from crossing from another state?  Is it wrong for a Governor to stop church meetings; to fine them or imprison them if they do?  Was it wrong for a Pastor in Florida to be arrested for having his church  meet?  The answer lies in first answering the question of:  What is socialism and how does it operate?

Socialism is an economic system which is based on the belief that government should own or control the tools of production (i.e. government should control business).  Thus, to implement this plan, socialists must control government so they can use its power to force everyone to work their economic system.  They enforce their control by:

  • Taxation: A business owner must buy a license and register his business with the government.
  • A traveler must have a permit (a license) to travel.
  • A school must have a certification from a central agency (like an Accreditation Association). If the socialists control that Accreditation Association, it guarantees that their socialism will be taught to the next generation because a teacher must have a certification from that Accreditation Association.
  • A physician must have the permission of government to practice; He must have a government worker’s approval to treat a patient in a certain locality; to prescribe a certain hospital or a certain medicine (FDA) for his patient.

All this government control means there must be Continue reading →

One of America’s greatest men spoke these sobering words:

Reformation Army 1“The time is now near at hand which must probably determine whether Americans are to be freemen or slaves; whether they are to have any property they can call their own; whether their houses and farms are to be pillaged and destroyed, and themselves consigned to a state of wretchedness from which no human efforts will deliver them.

“The fate of unborn millions will now depend, under God, on the courage and conduct of this army.  Our cruel and unrelenting enemy leaves us no choice but a brave resistance, or the most abject submission.  We have, therefore to resolve to conquer or die.  Our own country’s honor calls upon us for a vigorous and manly exertion, and if we now shamefully fail, we shall become infamous to the whole world.

“Let us rely upon the goodness of the cause, and the aid of the Supreme Being in whose hands victory is, to animate and encourage us to great and noble actions.”

(Washington, George. July 2nd, 1776, from his Headquarters in New York the General Orders were issued to his troops. Jared Sparks, ed., The Writings of George Washington, 12 Volumes (Boston: American Stationer’s Company, 1837; NY: F. Andrew’s, 1834-1847), Vol. III, p. 449 | Peter Marshall and David Manuel, The Glory of America (Bloomington, MN: Garborg’s Heart’N Home, Inc., 1991), 11.18.)

The great American who spoke those words was George Washington.  He spoke them to his ‘ragtag’ army on July 2nd, 1776, the day when the Declaration of Independence was first approved in Congress.  Looking at their natural assets, that little army didn’t have Continue reading →

Enemies Within the Camp 1

The worse discovery a military guard can make is to find one, clad in a uniform just like his,  working inside the camp to destroy it.  No greater damage can be done than to have secret agents working on the inside to destroy the cause for which that army exists.  However, the very worst thing that guard can, himself, do, is to assume that there are not any such spies lurking in the camp.  And yet that is exactly what most Americans—including Christians—have done.  In our quest for pleasure, possessions, and prestige, we have ignored the warning signs all around us that there are just such agents working within our borders to destroy our God-given liberty.

The Bible warns us over and over not to underestimate our enemy, satan, with his efforts to destroy the flow of the Gospel of Christ to our children.  God warns us about letting satan deceive us with his strategies.  The Apostle Paul wrote:

“Lest Satan should get an advantage of us:  for we are not ignorant of his devices.” (2 Corinthians 2:11)

The Bible warns us:

“Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:” (1 Peter 5:8)

But most Americans, believers included, have Continue reading →

We are in the midst of a constant war that defines everything about us—whether we know it or not!  The Bible states,

“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places…” (Ephesians 6:12)

Recently, Tony Perkins (President of the Family Research Council) wrote of Secretary of State Mike Pompeo’s warning that we have been infiltrated by large numbers of communists in this nation.  And before you regurgitate what the liberals have taught us to say at such an idea—that is, that this is the raging of some “right-winged fundamentalist”—consider that this is the United States Secretary of State talking to a group of forty Governors of our states.  And from all I can find out, Mike Pompeo is a committed Christian who lives out that commitment in his office each day.  And frankly, I think it is a “breath of fresh air” to hear the one whose responsibility it is to guard our national security being so honest.  It’s been long overdue since no previous Secretary of State in over fifty years has done it.

The little boy tugged at the young man’s coat sleeve. “How far is it to America?” he asked, “Will we soon be there?” “No, lad,” the man replied, “It will take many days to cross this huge ocean.” The little boy gazed briefly across the ocean to the west. Then, unaware of the risks of such a voyage, he ran to find his friend to tell him this ship, the Mayflower, would be their playground for a long time. The young man continued to gaze across the vast ocean. His thoughts drifted back twenty years—to the time he had first met these people he was now a part of.

He remembered the wonderful meetings they had in their homes in England. For the first time in his life he had felt accepted, really accepted. These people were genuine, somehow he just knew it. Though others were saying this group were bigots who thought they were the only ones who were right and that they had “gone off the deep end” with their religion, he knew the truth. These people were real. They people didn’t claim to be perfect. They readily admitted that they too were capable of selfishness. But the unique thing about them (that so set them apart from those who were against them) was that they had entered into an agreement to help each other not give into selfishness by letting their friends point it out to them. And the way they did it seemed safer to him than living the way his relatives did. Because they recognized their own bent toward selfishness, they didn’t trust their own thoughts alone. They had agreed to compare their thoughts about another member’s actions to what the Bible said about those actions. Those who were critical of them certainly didn’t Continue reading →

What is Socialism 1It is just hard to believe that we have so many Presidential candidates that are openly embracing socialism! While fifty years ago a socialist political candidate couldn’t get to “first base”, today it’s becoming much more accepted due to the multitude of Socialists professors in America’s universities. They teach our young adults from a socialist perspective, and many, if not most, of those young adults come to think socialistically. Now they are running for office—even the Presidency!

Why is this upsurge in socialism occurring? I believe it is mainly because we don’t understand what socialism really is. satan has always worked in the darkness; and it is in this region of ignorance that tyranny begins. So let’s TURN THE LIGHT ON SOCIALISM. Let’s take a REAL look into it and its operations.

By definition, socialism “is Continue reading →

God so used one man, Patrick of Ireland, in the 400s to so change Ireland that it would be a base from which the Gospel would be carried to the ends of the earth in that day!  Patrick led thousands to Christ in Ireland.  He started over 700 churches in twenty-eight years!  He trained and set apart 700 bishops and 3000 ministers to further disciple the people who had come to Christ.  He started training centers to equip believers to carry the Gospel to their own—and to the world.  And Patrick understood something we’ve lost:  That is, the institution of civil government was God’s institution and must operate by His truth, the Bible, if it is to fulfill its purpose of protecting God-given rights of life, liberty, and property.  He reformed (reshaped) Ireland’s governments to agree with Biblical principles.  This is exactly what we need in America today!

Patrick’s disciples would carry to the world this Biblical message of reshaping cultures through Christ.  They confronted the Barbarians, who were over-running Europe at the time, and neutralized with the Gospel of Christ their savage destruction.  Indeed one historian believed Continue reading →
