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.

Covenant Is the Basis of our Nation 1

When the Pilgrims came here in 1620, they had learned some things that recent generations have had stolen from them.  For instance, they had come to understand that the basis of the government is covenant.  No state can exist very long if its citizens are not in covenant with each other.

The word covenant is defined as “a meeting or agreement of minds”.  The minds of a people living under a particular government must be in agreement on the basics of life if they are to be able to walk together throughout the generations.

They must agree about Who God is, and who He says they are, and what His plan for them is, both as individuals and a nation.  Without this agreement, education, commerce, and government just become Continue reading →

“Why Flag Day?”

Why Flag Day 1

Recently one of the churches in our community held a special meeting on Flag Day, June 14th.  They honored the United States Flag, “…the Republic for which it stands…”, and the soldiers who have defended that Republic.  Our original Continental Congress approved the basic design of our Flag on June 14th, 1777, which is why the day has been set aside as a day to honor our Flag.

I remember being taught the importance of our Flag as a child by my Dad and Mom.  Dad was a World War II veteran and had a great love for our country.  The public school I attended likewise taught us respect for country and the Flag which represents it.  We saluted the Flag and pledged allegiance to it every morning.  This is rarely done now as the emphasis through the education system is on nations coming together in a one-world government.  We were taught the Biblical understanding that:

“God hath made of one blood all nations of men…and appointed…the boundaries of their habitation.” (Acts17:26, emphasis added)

Now most children don’t even know the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag.  Let’s carefully consider this pledge in an effort to Continue reading →

The Deceptive Equality Act 2

The most dangerous piece of legislation to ever come out of the U.S. House of Representatives is now in the U.S. Senate awaiting a hearing.  It is falsely named The Equality Act, but should be named The Religious Liberty and Free Speech Death Act!!  It has been pushed as the expansion of civil rights, identifying with the Civil Rights Act of 1964.  But expansion means including sexual orientation and gender identity as a civil right.  The practical implications are devastating!

It would mean churches and Christian schools could be forced by the Courts to hire sodomites and so-called “transgenders” as staff workers.  This would mean they could teach a compromised message which they would claim was in the Bible.  They might even try to cast Jesus as a homosexual.  What would that do for your children and grandchildren?  Those who teach the Bible as absolute truth could Continue reading →

When God created Israel’s civil government, He commanded Moses:

“…thou shalt provide out of all the people able men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness; and place such over them, to be rulers…” (Exodus 18:21)

Thus, God gives us His qualifications for government servants.  I believe Kentucky Governor, Matt Bevin, has fulfilled these qualifications better than any governor in my lifetime of sixty-nine years.  While certainly not a perfect man, he’s done remarkably well at fulfilling this command.  Only the socialists who hate him scream otherwise:  As if they could put forth a perfect man.

Governor Bevin has proven himself to be an “able” man:  Leading the Kentucky Legislature to draft and pass some eight Pro-Life bills.  No other Kentucky Governor since abortion was “legalized” has Continue reading →

Recently three different Pastors told me of disgraceful incidents in which Kentucky Governor, Matt Bevin, had difficulty in speaking to a group because of “hecklers” in the crowd he was addressing.  In one of those incidents, the media reported the Governor just had to leave the stage without being able to say hardly anything.  Another Pastor told me he was saddened and embarrassed by people in his community whose language toward the Governor was certainly not civil, let alone Christian.  But the third experience was almost beyond belief.  At a Pro-Life rally in Frankfort, Kentucky’s Capitol, again there were “hecklers” who rudely spoke up to interrupt the Governor’s remarks.  These “hecklers”, who claimed to be representing the teachers of Kentucky concerning the pension plan crisis here, were asked later why they would interrupt such a solemn gathering, the aim of which was to save children from being murdered in their mother’s womb.  Their weak answer was that they didn’t know it was a Pro-Life rally.  Yet, there were banners and signs all around which made it plain to everyone what this gathering was.  This is simply uncivilized behavior in the civil realm!  I’m only glad to say I do not believe that this kind of behavior is approved of by most of the teachers in this state.

We should have very strong feelings concerning political issues; because they Continue reading →

Recently, students in an Oklahoma High School walked out in protest to school administrators because—school was too difficult?  No!  Because male students were being given free access to girls’ bathrooms!  This was being allowed because these boys were “confused” about their gender.  Many pleas by students and parents to school administrators had gone unheeded.  So, the students decided to take matters into their own hands, in the hopes it would get enough press coverage to expose this ridiculous policy!  On that thought:  If “unconfused” students would ban together, walk out of the classrooms, and steadfastly refused to go back until girls’ bathrooms were completely closed to males, guess what would happen?  Do not school districts have to have students present to collect the tax funding from their state?  If half the students were continually absent, guess what school boards would do?  They would find a way to protect girls in their bathrooms!  Money talks with a loud voice in most all school districts.  Think About It!

But is the effort to protect what is mistakenly called “transgenderism” what this battle is really about?  Absolutely not!  That’s the new color satan has Continue reading →

The arguments continue over whether a wall should be built along our Southwest border to keep out people who are not willing to meet the qualifications our Congress has set for people to enter the United States.  Those who want the Wall believe a nation needs well defined borders.  Those who do not want a wall believe there should be no borders between nations.  I’m still wondering how you define what is a nation if you don’t have borders.  I hear opinions being expressed by most everyone.  But I rarely hear anyone addressing this issue from the Biblical perspective.  What does God say about the boundaries of nations?  Since God created nations (Acts 17:26) you’d think He’d have some definite things to teach us about nations.  Indeed He does:  If we’d only be quiet and listen instead of believing that our thoughts deserve to be heard more than anyone else’s!

God tells us about nations’ borders in Deuteronomy 32:8.  The Bible says,

“When the most High divided to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds [or boundaries] of the people according to the number of the children of Israel.”

God gives to nations boundaries, therefore, the boundaries should be respected as a moral issue as well as a geographical issue.  Shouldn’t we be Continue reading →

On January 22nd, 2019, the most murderous abortion law in U.S. history was passed and signed into law by New York governor, Andrew Cuomo.  It allows murders to be performed on children in the womb right up to the day of their birth!  While most states in America have been restricting abortion more and more, New York now decides to flaunt the murder of children and celebrate it by lighting up the One World Trade Center Spire—as if this were something to be proud of!  This law even allows for unlicensed people to perform abortions, and insurance companies are forced to pay for it.  Can you believe that such savagery exists in this nation?!  While there are some exceptions, this celebration is happening mostly among the so-called “educational elite” in New York; in other words, left wing people who are, as the Bible says,

“Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools…” (Romans 1:22)

How could this have ever happened to our nation which was founded on the Biblical principles of government?  The short story is that; from the late 1800s on, we accepted more and more the idea that there is no God—or that God is not involved in every detail of life.  Along with those lies came the lie that the Bible is a book of myths.  These lies gave birth to the lie that there are no “Absolutes”.  In other words, nothing is Continue reading →

Who were the thinkers behind the American Revolution which would give birth to the greatest Republic the world had ever seen?  Actually, men like Washington, Jefferson, or even Samuel Adams, were not the “root” thinkers of that Revolution.  You may be surprised, but the truth is:  It was the Pastors who inspired the thinking that brought about the American Revolution.  They taught it in the churches!  The Provincial Congress of Massachusetts stated in 1774:

“…we cannot but acknowledge the goodness of Heaven in constantly supplying us with preachers of the Gospel whose concern has been the temporal and spiritual happiness of this people…and do therefore recommend…that they assist us in avoiding that dreadful slavery with which we are now threatened…”

(Christian History of the American Revolution, V. Hall (F.A.C.E. pub.), p.402)

The inspiration for the Battle of Lexington and Concord, which began the Revolutionary War, was none other than Jonas Clark, Pastor of the Church in Lexington for twenty years before the Revolution.  It was Continue reading →
