Chaos is defined in Webster’s original dictionary as, “confusion; disorder; a state in which the parts are undistinguished”. This describes exactly the state of affairs which the U.S. Supreme Court forced onto us when they ruled that marriage was not between a man and a woman only. This will produce “confusion” and “disorder” the likes of which we have never dreamed of. Consider its effect on society’s structural institutions of the home, the church, and civil government. This decision strikes at the heart of the most basic unit of society, the Home. How can you now define “home”? Is it one husband and three wives; can a man marry his daughter? Could a child marry their pet? Once you change the definition of marriage from being what the Bible teaches (that is, one man and one woman) you remove any exclusiveness in the definition of the relationship. This can only work chaos in families— especially the next generation.

Consider its effect on the Church. Continue reading →

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.

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

“Government Must Limit Man’s Selfishness”

As America’s Founding Fathers were growing up as children one of the greatest revivals in all of history was occurring. It would come to be called “The Great Awakening” as the Holy Spirit of God awakened Americans to the faith their Pilgrim ancestors had known so well. The Bible became the standard once again for morals as well as manners. They would grow up with the view of God and the view of man which the Bible revealed. The Ten Commandments would set the boundaries for what was right and wrong in their generation. The Biblical structure for education, business, and government would become their quest in building their society. Their view of God was not the “teddy bear” god we’ve tried to shaped Him into in our day; rather, it was the Biblical revelation of Him as the awesome Creator and Ruler of all that is. Because He was our Maker and Redeemer (in Christ) He was the One Who would be our Judge.

Thus, our current view of ourselves as being the focus of life was not their view. They believed what the Bible teaches about man: Continue reading →
