What difference do words make anyway?  So what if one says ‘isn’t’ and someone else says ‘ain’t’?  As one comedian said, “Saying ‘ain’t’ is sure better than saying ‘aresn’t’!”  While people’s expressions can be humorous, the reality is:  Words are important.  The Bible says, “Death and life are in the power of the tongue…” (Proverbs 18:21).

Words are important!  Words communicate ideas.  Ideas in our thoughts produce actions in our bodies.  Those actions will produce life or death for us and others, particularly the next generation.

The ‘watering down’ of our language is doing great harm to our American way of life.  Knowing fewer definitions to words keeps us from understanding the language of our Founding Fathers.  Their writings were powerful because they could communicate such profound truth with so few words.  Many of the words they used we now have no clue what they mean.  This means we likely will Continue reading

This present Washington Administration talks a lot about removing the guns from private citizens.  This is a grave danger which our Founding Fathers protected us from by writing in the Second Amendment that the people have…

“…the right…to keep and bear Arms…”

(Second Amendment of the Constitution of the United States)

In 1938 the German Dictator, Adolf Hitler, outlawed the possession of guns by the people under his rule.  Once this happened, his full fury was unleashed on those populations who disagreed with his ideas of government.  Why did he wait until the guns were removed to fully show how oppressive his government would be?  Let him answer that in his own words.  He stated at a dinner talk on April 11th, 1942,

“The most foolish mistake we could possibly make would be to allow the subject races to possess arms.  History shows that all conquerors who have allowed their subject races to carry arms have prepared their own downfall…”

(Adolf Hitler, 4/11/42, Hitler’s Table Talk 1941-44: His Private Conversations, 2nd Ed. (1973), Pg. 425-426.)

In order for liberty to be maintained in a nation, the people must be able to maintain their weapons to Continue reading

Pastor Rob McCoy and his church, God Speaks Calvary Chapel in California, won a court case against the Ventura County government in California. They had been threatened with fines and jail time if they didn’t comply with “shut down” measures which government servants tried to force on them. The civil authorities tried to blame the virus as their reason for demanding it. The church argued that this was a violation of their religious liberty. And the church won! Whether or not the court agreed with the church, Pastor Rob and his folks were the ones who were right, because they were doing what the Bible teaches about “assembling ourselves together” (from Hebrews 10:25) so there can be the close contact with other believers whereby the life of Christ in one believer flows to the life of Christ in another believer and that LIFE ministers to both believers—and those who are around them.

Pastor McCoy understands something that few Pastors in America have Continue reading
