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 →

For Memorial Day, a restaurant in our town displayed a message on their marque that read:

“‘Thank you’ to those who never came home.”

Why We Remember 1Why do we remember our fallen military heroes? This was the original purpose for Memorial Day when it was begun during the War Between the States. We remember for two reasons: One, God tells us to remember our past as a nation, so we will see His Providential Hand in it; and thus, He will become more real to us. When we remember His work in the past, it aids our faith in believing Him for miracles now. The Bible commands us to remember our history. It states,

“Remember the days of old, consider the years of many generations: ask thy father, and he will show thee; thy elders, and they will tell thee.” (Deuteronomy 32:7)

Secondly, remembering our past helps us know Continue reading →

It really amazes me how so many people continue to sleep in the midst of this crisis, which, without revival, will end in the loss of our liberty.  Yet most Americans  continue on and on with no serious thought that our nation could be forever changed.  It is the fault of our education process that we continue to sleep, as we did on the morning when we were attacked at Pearl Harbor in 1941.  This is not to place all the blame on school systems either; education is much more than just the classroom.  The television programming, the internet viewing, the music we listen to, are all major contributors to the way we now think.  Without careful study of the Bible, believing that its teachings are true and thereby should be lived by, we simply follow the inclinations of our own thinking—and that’s the root problem.

The Bible says, “There is not a just man upon the earth that doeth good and sinneth not.” (Ecclesiastes 7:20)  It reveals that our “…heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked; [but] who can know it?” (Jeremiah 17:9)  This is because there is a root of sin in us which releases in us the attitude of “I want what I want when I want it.”  To get what you want, you have to be able to control your circumstances.  That means you have to fight someone else for control.  This desire for control is what has caused every hurt and every war in history.  Thus, those who haven’t surrendered their will to Jesus Christ, and had His life replace theirs in this world, cannot Continue reading →
