God will be Exalted

Watching and listening to the world around us can lead some to get depressed, discouraged, and dismal. However, there is good news.

Even as this world grows darker, God has promised us that one day all shall recognize Him as King and Lord. There will be no more mocking, no more scorn, no more ridicule, and no more hate or pride.

All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the LORD: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee. Psalm 22:27

I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear. Isaiah 45:23

For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God. Romans 14:11

And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the LORD. Isaiah 66:23

That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Philippians 2:10-11

Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for thou only art holy: for all nations shall come and worship before thee; for thy judgments are made manifest. Revelation 15:4

Some Thoughts on the Recent Wal-Mart Stampede.

For those of you who haven’t been keeping up with the news these last few days, A New York Wal-Mart employee by the name of Jdimytai Damour was trampled to death by Black Friday shoppers intent on getting a bargain on their Christmas purchases this weekend. When the doors were open for business, the mob literally stampeded in, trampling multiple individuals, including Damour, a pregnant woman, Wal-Mart employees trying to help Damour, and various others.

Stampede is a term normally used to describe cattle or other animals, not human beings.

There was a time when even a crowd of several thousand, such as was waiting outside Wal-Mart Friday, would have been a calm, patient and courteous group. They would have been in the “Christmas Spirit” wishing each other a “Merry Christmas” and discussing excitedly the coming days of shopping and imagining the gifts that they would find for their loved ones and friends. When the doors opened for business, the group would have politely and courteously filed in and begun to do their early bird shopping.

Times have certainly changed, haven’t they? When the management announced over the loudspeakers that the store was closing due to the death of the employee, shoppers became irate and some callously continued to shop, not caring that the group they had just been a part of had brutally taken the life of another human being. An article I read said “Items on sale at the Valley Stream Wal-Mart included a Samsung 50-inch Plasma HDTV for $798, a Bissel Compact Upright Vacuum for $28, a Samsung 10.2 megapixel digital camera for $69 and DVDs such as "The Incredible Hulk" for $9.”
These “bargains” were evidently worth more than the life of a store employee.
The Holy Spirit of God is sometimes called the restrainer. Notice He is not called the preventer. All who have been reborn through faith have the Spirit of God within them. He is the One Who guides us morally and convicts us of our wrongdoing. He encourages us to do good to others, to be kind, to be patient, to be selfless.

Animals do not have the Spirit of God within them.

It is animals that do not have morals. They don’t put others above themselves.
It is animals that see what they want, and fight to get it.
It is animals that kill and abandon their young.
It is animals that have sex with whatever and whenever they want to.
It is animals that prey on the weak and will often kill those weakest and sickly among them.
It is animals that have no regard for the wounded among them.
It is animals that will savagely attack when cornered or prevented from doing what they want to do.

Animals don’t voluntarily take punishment or death for an idea.
Animals don’t stop to help a stranger in need.
Animals don’t put their own lives in danger to help another.

God is being rejected by his creations. They have determined that He either never existed, or no longer exists. Christians are despised and ridiculed. God is blasphemed. Human beings are becoming more and more self-focused, with a “me first” mentality.

Evolutionists have been telling us for years that we’re nothing more than animals. Without God, that’s exactly what we are.

Evolutionists also tell us we’re getting better and better.

Tell that to the family of Jdimytai Damour.

Obama Bullies Get to Kenyan Ambassador

It seems the Obamathugs have gotten to Kenyan Ambassador Peter Ogego.

I posted earlier about the radio interview with Detroit DJs in which Kenyan Ambassador Ogego clearly admitted that Obama was born in Kenya. There IS NO DOUBT.

But he was interviewed later by WND about it, and it was obvious he’d been bullied and told what to say:

Kenyan Ambassador Peter N.R.O. Ogego is saying he's "infuriated" by a radio program's efforts to "misquote" him on the subject of President-elect Barack Obama's birthplace – but he refused to confirm whether Obama was born in the United States.
In an exclusive interview with WND today, Ogego was specifically asked whether Obama is a natural-born U.S. citizen.
"I don't know," he said with a tone of irritation. "You should ask your government. I know his father is Kenyan."


He is even going so far as to say the hosts misquoted him and edited the audio.

No way. Listen to the audio yourself. If you don't want to listed to the whole thing, go into it about 12 minutes and start from there. Ogego knew clearly that the DJs were asking about President-Elect Obama, and not his father (They SAID President-Elect). Obama’s father was not even mentioned until AFTER their questions about Obama’s birthplace in Kenya. Why else would he have said “His paternal grandmother is still alive.”

The American people are not only about to have an illegitimate president, but a bullying one at that.

He’s bullying the Ambassador of another country now.

How soon before he is bullying all of us?

How long before the Detroit radio station is bullied into taking the interview offline?

Ambassador admits Obama born in Kenya

Someone needs to investigate this and if it's true, the inauguration should be cancelled and another election held.

This is part of the transcript from a recent talk radio show:

At approximately 12:30 into the MP3 recording another of Mike's co-hosts asks Ambassador, "President-elect Obama's birthplace over in Kenya, is that going to be a national spot to go visit, where he was born?"



Ambassador Ogego responds, "It's, um, already an attraction. His, his, uh, pateral grandmother is still alive..."



The questioner then interjects, "But his birthplace, they'll put up a marker there?"



Ambassador Ogego responds, "It depends on the government, it's already well known."


I've listened to the whole thing. It sounds legit. If it's not, then I have one question...

WHY DOESN'T OBAMA JUST PROVE HIS BIRTHPLACE AND DISPEL ALL THE RUMORS AND ACCUSATIONS?

I'm mad. I don't like being lied to. I don't trust my government. Is there no one who can do anything about this?

Sheriff Doesn't Think Citizens Should be able to Protect Themselves

Who wants to take a guess at whether we will see more or less of this in the next four years, as liberals become more confident and feel more empowered in pushing their personal agendas. I predict that the Constitution will become even more disdained and ridiculed as outdated and a “dead letter”, just as the Bible has been accused of being outdated and a “dead letter”.

For those who don’t want to read the whole article, here is Ms. Green’s synopsis.

In Orange County California, they have a new sheriff. Sandra Hutchens evidently doesn’t think private citizens should be able to defend themselves. There are 1100 citizens in Orange County who have passed all written and shooting requirements etc. to obtain a legal permit to carry a concealed weapon. These permits were issued by the previous sheriff of Orange County. Many of these citizens have recently received a letter from Hutchins stating that they must now justify keeping the permit they have or face having it revoked. There is the potential for dozens, or even hundreds of permit holders losing their permits for no good reason.


Not surprisingly, Hutchins is getting a lot of angry feedback. She was quoted as saying “There’s so much important stuff going on with the department, I didn’t expect there to be so much feedback on this.”


Important stuff? Having a way of defending oneself and one’s family from harm is not important? It’s ok for you to have that right, but not Mr. or Mrs. Average citizen?

What’s even more alarming is Hutchens’ new policy requiring applicants to prove there is a legitimate threat to their safety and to undergo possible psychological, polygraph, or medical testing.

Legitimate threat to their safety? Read the news lately? It’s pretty dangerous out there these days.

Statistics continue to prove that there is a direct correlation between the issuing of concealed carry permits and the reduction of violent crime.

I think it has been proven that liberals don’t act and react upon logic, but instead, upon emotion. There is nothing logical in Hutchins’ actions.

Thanks to my friend Herm for this one.

Double Standard - Who are the Real Haters?

This happened in Lansing Michigan on November 9th:



This happened in San Francisco shortly after:

Hundreds of homosexual activists rushed out of bars and swarmed a group of Christians who were singing songs in San Francisco's Castro District – and some even threatened to kill the worshippers.

A group of Christians had been singing and praying in the "gay" district for several days, but they never expected an angry mob would run them out. However, that's what happened Friday night.

One woman who was attacked told her story with Pastor Lou Engle at the International House of Prayer in Kansas City. She said the group's fellowship had been peaceful for several nights before the riot.

"People would come stand with us and join us," she said. "We got to pray for some people."

But then angry men began yelling profanities and warning the Christians to leave the district.


Here is the full story.


Here's a video taken of the event...(warning - profanity used on several occasions)



Notice what one of the homosexuals said - "this is our neighborhood".

Oh, really? Whose church was it in Michigan? Isn't there a difference between being in a public place on a public street and peacefully exercising your First Amendment Rights and in disrupting a church service?

When is the last time you saw violent, profanity-spewing Christians chasing after homosexuals and screaming at them? You haven't, and you won't.

Don't EVEN mention Fred Phelps and his ilk. They are NOT Christians.

Yet, the lie continues that Christians are haters.

From Death comes Life

David, a newfound online friend posted this about why God sometimes brings his children home in what seems like the prime of their life. I posted a comment on his blog about a young preacher I knew that died in his twenties, but it also jogged my memory about another friend who died several years ago.

A young couple I know in their thirties had everything. They'd just adopted a child, had a nice home, money in the bank, and were active in our church and very happy with their lives.

Then tragedy struck. While cutting down some rotten trees in his yard, a tree fell in the wrong direction, struck him in the head, and he was rushed to the hospital. We in his church family stood vigil in that hospital for about a week, but he never recovered...and died leaving a young widow and daughter behind.

This was such a sad time for us all. We all loved him, and couldn't understand why this happened. However, the answer may lie in what happened during the funeral service.

Many many friends came and gave tribute to my friend, and how he had touched their lives in so many ways. And then, as was requested by his young widowed wife, the preacher presented the Gospel, explaining that as good a person as the deceased was, he knew that his good works hadn't saved him - he had trusted Christ as his Saviour as a child, and knew that it was by grace that he would be in heaven some day.

The pastor then told us about another young man who died tragically many years ago - only his death was no accident. He willingly stepped forward and took torture, ridicule, humiliation, a horrible beating, and then allowed others to drive huge rusty nails into his flesh and hang him naked on a wooden cross on the top of a hill called Calvary. That young man died in excruciating pain that day, not for his own crimes, but for the crimes of all mankind. He suffered for the very people who nailed him there. He died for us all out of the purest form of love that ever existed. Then pastor explained that three days later, that man rose out of the grave alive through the Spirit of God to prove that all that He had said and done during His few years on life could be trusted to be the truth. He was the Way, the Truth, and the Life. He was God in human form.

The pastor, at the young widow's request, invited any who did not know for sure that they were going to heaven to come to the altar and pray, and seek guidance from one of the pastors there. A young woman stood and walked down the aisle that day, realizing she was one of those whose sins Jesus died for. And that woman was joined hand in hand with my friend's widow, who walked down with her and helped lead her to the Lord.

That soul who was saved that day at a friend's funeral has been a faithful servant for many years now. Surely my friend was allowed to look down from heaven and rejoice that his death helped to bring everlasting life to another friend. And I know his widow has also rejoiced that her husband's death was not in vain. And God has done as He promised, and has provided for her, and given her strength.

One World Religion, One World Government

And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters: With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.” Revelation 17:1-2

The Book of Revelation tells us that during the 7 year tribulation, there will be a one-world government and a one-world religion.

The false prophet will use the one-world religion to promote the one-world government under the rule of the Anti-Christ. It will be a combination of all the world’s religions in one, promoting peace, harmony, and tolerance. Citizens of earth will be required to swear allegiance to this church to prove their loyalty.

Ironically, at mid point in the tribulation, the anti-Christ will abolish this one-world religion, declare himself to be God, and demand that all worship him and take his mark to prove their loyalty.Without the mark, one will not be able to buy or sell food or other goods. The mark will be on the wrist or the forehead. The technology for this is already in place.

The pieces of the puzzle continue to fall into place. There are already groups in existence that are promoting a one-world religion and one-world mindset. Watch this video from Charter for Compassion. If you go to their website, be sure to look at the symbolism at the very bottom of the page.






The video can also be seen here.

Also take a look at these:

It's amazing to see prophesied events falling into place.

Kenyan Physician Recognizes About Obama What Most Voters in the US Did Not

Dr. Stephen Karanja is head of the Catholic Doctors’ Association of Kenya. He sees the election of Obama as a terrible thing that is going to cause trouble in Africa.

We in Kenya know him as a person who is anti-family,” says Dr. Karanja.

"He is “pro-abortion and anti-family”.


How will Obama’s presidency affect Kenya adversely?

Life Site News Article

Or for a Ms. Green synopsis:

Although 90 percent of Kenyans consider abortion to be an abomination, international aid organizations continue to come in and promote anti-child, anti-family ideology. During the Bush administration, overseas funding for contraceptives and abortion was greatly reduced. However, under a pro-abortion administration, organizations such as International Planned Parenthood will come in and promote an increase in baby killing.

The most insightful quote from the Doctor was this:

“There is something in Africa we have that they should come and learn,” he continued. 'Something called ‘respecting the family’ respecting the elders, respecting the children, hoping for the best, and not being ruled. And people from the west have a problem with this.”


Something called ‘respecting the family’ respecting the elders, respecting the children, hoping for the best, and not being ruled. And people from the west have a problem with this.

Some Episcopalians Doing the Right Thing

I have posted several times and condemned the apostasy going on within the Episcopal church. Today I commend those that reject the church's move away from Christ and Biblical principles. May God continue to lead you down the righteous path towards Him and away from an apostate church.

Churches - Are They Safe from Violence?

I have a CCP (concealed carry permit). That means that I am legally certified to carry a concealed weapon for personal protection. I have taken multiple firearms and self protection courses throughout my life, have been an avid hunter and supporter of the 2nd Amendment. In my state, and in 30 other states, I can legally carry. There are exceptions. There are some places I am not allowed to carry. The local courthouse and areas around public schools are also off limits. However, there is also a clause that says I cannot carry in or around a church or church grounds.

I have been lobbying my State representatives to introduce legislation to change this. You see, I work for a ministry of a church, and although I don’t actually work in the church, I work on the church grounds in another building. During most days, there are only women present on the grounds. Some of these women are middle aged or older. The grounds keeper and janitorial staff are men, but are not always there. I can tell you that in my many years here, I’ve seen some pretty threatening people come through. Panhandlers looking for a handout, drugged out kids snooping around looking for trouble, others just seeing what is sitting around that could be ripped off easily.

In light of the last few years’ news around the country of people coming into churches and opening fire on people, or kidnapping or assaulting individuals on church grounds, I feel I am being discriminated against by the State because I cannot exercise the same right to carry during my day at work as I am allowed to exercise everywhere else I go. I think I’ve convinced one of my representatives that I have a legitimate concern, and she is looking into the subject in order to introduce legislation to change this exemption.

Why would protecting myself or others from harm be less important on church grounds than in the rest of the world I live in? Do lawmakers in my state think I’m safer in church than elsewhere?

Scripture for Christians Who are Fearful of the Future

For Christians, the events unfolding before us can be unnerving, depressing, and even frightening.

I don’t mind saying that I’ve had all of these feelings over the last few months. This is a time when we need to increase our time with God through prayer and time in His Word.

The Psalms are some of my favorite Scriptures, and they have answers to a lot of the feelings that Christians are having right now.

We need COURAGE, REASSURANCE, and STRENGTH right now. In light of that, I give you some wonderful passages of Scripture from the Psalms. I would love to have been able to hear them sung, but even without music, they are powerful and stirring to my soul. I hope they do the same for you.

For COURAGE:

The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell. Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident. One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple. For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock. And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the LORD.” Psalms 27:1-6

For REASSURANCE:

Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity. For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb. Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed. Delight thyself also in the LORD: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass. And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday. Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass. Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil. For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth. For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it shall not be. But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace. The wicked plotteth against the just, and gnasheth upon him with his teeth. The LORD shall laugh at him: for he seeth that his day is coming. The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy, and to slay such as be of upright conversation. Their sword shall enter into their own heart, and their bows shall be broken.” Psalms 37:1-15

For STRENGTH:

I will love thee, O LORD, my strength. The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower. “

It is God that girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way perfect. He maketh my feet like hinds' feet, and setteth me upon my high places. He teacheth my hands to war, so that a bow of steel is broken by mine arms. Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy right hand hath holden me up, and thy gentleness hath made me great. Thou hast enlarged my steps under me, that my feet did not slip. I have pursued mine enemies, and overtaken them: neither did I turn again till they were consumed. I have wounded them that they were not able to rise: they are fallen under my feet. For thou hast girded me with strength unto the battle: thou hast subdued under me those that rose up against me.”

Psalms 18:1-2 and 32-39

There. I feel better already.

Protect Yourself. Nobody Else Will.

I was talking to a friend of mine the other day. He's a retired State Trooper and a gun dealer/trainer. He told me a young man in his twenties was riding through the downtown area of the city I live in recently and three bullets came through his vehicle, one lodging in his cheek. The bullets were 22 cal. and he's gonna be ok. But the city police basically said "what do you want us to do about it?".

One of the many reasons I have a CCP. You can't depend on law enforcement to help you out. If you want to be protected, you'd better learn to protect yourself. Most of the criminals on the street have already spent time and are back on the street to prey on the innocent once again. For one thing, in my city at least, the police don't get paid enough to risk their lives. Secondly, it's not really their job to protect the public. Their job is to arrest bad guys when they do bad things.

Flash ahead a few years...

What will happen if BHO does what most gun owners believe he will do - and that is start grabbing weapons from law-abiding citizens? Think that we'll be more safe than we are now? Think the bad guys will give up their guns? Think the police will be more willing to protect us?

Think again.

Obama's New Spiritual Advisor?

Obama has said his faith is important to him. After learning more about his pastor of some 17 years, Jeremiah Wright, and now finding out who his spiritual adviser was during his campaign, it begs the question, just what is your faith all about?

For those who won't follow the link to the full story, here it is. Ms. Green's synopsis:

During the campaign, on multiple occasions, Obama sought "spiritual advice" (and I use that term loosely) from none other than Bishop Gene Robinson. Robinson is a professed homosexual who lives with his homosexual sex partner, and who was the first openly gay person elected as a bishop in the Episcopal church. His election was delayed due to an allegation that he had inappropriately touched another man and was affiliated with a Web site with links to porn, but in the end, the Episcopal General Convention approved his appointment by a vote of 62-45. He was elected while living unapologetically with a man in a sexual relationship, and they were "married" in a civil union in 2007, at which Robinson was quoted as saying, "I always wanted to be a June bride."

So Obama chose Robinson as his spiritual adviser during the campaign,

God help us. Obama is surrounding himself with terrorists, racists, socialists, sexual perverts and murderers. It's almost as though he wants to destroy this country...but surely not...after all, his worsh...er...his supporters say he alone offers hope. He is the "One".

Rejected and Forgotten - The Fate of False Christianity

My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.” Hosea 4:6


Thou shalt not kill. (“… thou hast forgotten the law of thy God…”)

One of the foundations of Judeao-Christian faith is the sanctity of life. God shows us clearly that he knows us while we are yet being formed in the womb.

Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, …” Jeremiah 1:5

If the fetus was just tissue, God would not speak of it in such a personal and intimate way, but many who profess Christ have forgotten His Father’s law. Thou shalt not kill. Kill as in “murder”, not as in accident or in war.

Do not stand before others and profess that you know, love and serve Christ and then condone the murder of his creations. I reject your false Christianity.

“…as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.” Matthew 15:8

Not only do you condone abortion, but you rejoice in it, you savor it, you are proud of your position. Or, you ignore the subject, hide your face, focus on other views that are more important to you, and as I mentioned in an earlier post, you say abortion is a non-issue.

It’s not a non-issue with God. God creates all life.

“…I will also forget thy children.”

Children can see through hypocrisy. So many people go to church, sing some songs, listen to a sermon, tell everybody “God bless you, I’m praying for you,” but then go home and live life their way all week. They act like the world, talk like the world, drink and party like the world, watch filth on television and in movies, celebrate homosexuality and defend abortion. If you don’t live your faith, your children will reject your faith.

God rejects your false Christianity as well.

“…I will also reject thee

“…I will also forget thy children.”

Guns Vilified

Now that Obama is going to be in power for a while, and the libs will have free reign, we’ll be seeing more and more vilification of guns.

I heard this ad on the radio today.




This ad is not about reducing crime. Notice that the focus is not on the crimes, but on the GUNS.

We’re going to be seeing and hearing more of this propaganda. The crime is not as important as the WEAPON. Honest law-abiding citizens will be seen as potential criminals – people to be afraid of.

As cliché as it sounds: Guns don’t kill people. Guns don’t commit crimes. Guns don’t commit suicide. Guns don’t rape, steal, or trespass.

First they take your guns. Then they take your rights.

Where I Stand on Obama

I want to clarify exactly where I stand as a Christian on the Obama presidency.

#1 I did not vote for him. No true Christian has any excuse for doing so, because he stands against Christ on multiple issues.

#2 I did not vote for McCain. I voted against Obama by choosing McCain, who was the only one who had a chance of beating Obama.

#3 I did not vote against Obama because he is black.

#4 I voted against Obama because he is a Marxist, racist, socialist, abortion supporting, homosexual supporting liberal democrat who lies whenever it suits him, who is a bully, and who friends with and associates with enemies not only of our country, but of my race.

#5 I intend to pray fervently for Obama the entire time he is in office. I will pray that his radical wishes will be defeated and that God will change his heart on issues that are near and dear to all true Christians. I will pray for his safety, and the safety of his family.

#6 I will do all that I can to help promote true conservatism and I condemn the Republican party for its abandonment of conservatism.

I will not accept comments for this particular post. This is where I stand - whether you agree or disagree with me on my views of Obama, they are what they are. This is simply a post of clarification.

Whose Money is it?

Obama campaign workers in Indianapolis didn’t like it that they weren’t paid quickly enough. Several hundred Obama workers lined up outside the campaign headquarters in Indianapolis, having been told that they could pick up their money at 1:00. Instead, the place was deserted. The crowd became rowdy, and the police had to be called.

"I want my money today! It's my money. I want it right now!" yelled one former campaign worker.


Eventually, someone with the campaign did arrive and start passing out the earnings by giving gift cards.

Some of the former Obama workers didn’t like it that they didn’t get paid what they earned.

"It should have been $480. It's $230," said Imani Sankofa.



How many times will phrases like these be repeated in the coming years of an Obama presidency?

To each of those workers who felt they worked hard for their money, I ask…
Why not give a piece of your pie to someone less fortunate than you? Someone who did not work for their money…but who needs a few bucks to buy a 40 oz or a pack of cigarettes. Why would you have a problem with doing that? You voted in a man who is going to do just that.


To those who say they didn’t get enough of what they earned, I ask…

Isn’t that exactly what Obama has promised to do? You elected him. He’s going to take more of our hard earned money and use it for what he deems more important. So we will work hard and get less money. You voted in a man who is going to do just that.


You Obama people are going to find out you’ve been had.

I’m going to try not to enjoy it too much.

Abortion - A Non-Issue

One thing I can say about this race. It has truly opened my eyes to the difference between someone who says they follow Christ and those who only pretend.

Jesus said "Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me". He has a special place in His heart for children. He said it would be better if a millstone were tied around your neck and you were thrown into the ocean than what would happen to you if you harm one of these little ones.

Right before the election, my son asked an aquaintance why she would vote for someone who supports not only abortion on demand, but radically supported three times to allow infanticide. This person who professes to be a Christian told him that abortion was a “non-issue”.

A non issue.

Millions upon millions of human babies have been murdered in this country. More babies are murdered each day than were Americans on 9-11.

Scissors inside tiny heads. Limbs torn from their sockets. Flesh burned by saline.

Cold. Callous. Unconcerned. It’s a non-issue.

Obama has said his first offical act as President will be to sign the Freedom of Choice Act. The bloodbath will increase once it is signed into law.

Surely God will judge this nation soon. Maybe Obama is our judgment.

All I know is, the one-world government, the one world economy, the one world religion spoken of in Scripture is visible on the horizon. The anti-Christ is walking the earth as we speak – I’m sure of it. He will be revealed soon. But I’ll already be out of here. I'll get to meet all those souls who were never allowed to be born.

Meanwhile, the screams of the innocent continue, laying guilt on us all for not stopping it.

A non-issue. Don't profess Christ and then call destroying His creation a non-issue.

If Obama Wins

The lyrics and the video below seem apropos in light of the strong possibility of an Obama presidency.

President Barrack Hussein Obama. What an awfully strange sounding term. I'm going to do my part today to help stop it from becoming a reality. I prayed and fasted all day yesterday. I'll pray and vote today. God help us, though we don't deserve it.

Mike And The Mechanics: Silent Running lyrics

Take the children and yourself
And hide out in the cellar
By now the fighting will be close at hand
Don't believe the church and state
And everything they tell you
Believe in me, I'm with the high command

Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?
Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?

There's a gun and ammunition
Just inside the doorway
Use it only in emergency
Better you should pray to God
The Father and the Spirit
Will guide you and protect from up here

Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?
Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?

Swear allegiance to the flag
Whatever flag they offer
Never hint at what you really feel
Teach the children quietly
For some day sons and daughters
Will rise up and fight while we stood still

Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?
Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?
Can you hear me running (can you hear me calling you?)
(Can you hear me) hear me calling you?
(Can you hear me running) hear me running babe?
(Can you hear me running) hear me running?
Calling you, calling you

Why it's all Grace and Not Works




When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, He said, It is finished: and He bowed His head, and gave up the ghost.” John 19:30

It is finished. The final words of Jesus Christ before He died.

The phrase, “it is finished” is translated from the Greek word “tetelestai”. Tetelestai is a Greek accounting term meaning “paid in full” from the root word “teleo”.

So Jesus, instead of just saying “I am finished”, as in “I have done what I set out to do”, is actually saying, I did what I set out to do – which is pay in full the debt I came to pay.

Christians are saved thru Christ’s sacrifice on the cross. He paid for our sins. The penalty for our sins was death, separated from God for all eternity in a place called Hell, to later be thrown into the final resting place of the Lake of Fire.

So through Christ’s death, He gave us life. Spiritual, everlasting life. Life in a place called Heaven.

The Greek tense of the word “tetelestai” also is worth noting. It is not in a past tense, but in a tense that indicates that something has been done, is being done, and will always be done. Our salvation through Jesus Christ isn’t something that was done, but could later change. It is done, it will always be done.

If I pay my mortgage in full, and then go to the company a month later and say, “I’ve changed me mind – I don’t want to pay my last mortgage payment”, do you honestly think the company will say, “Sure. No problem. Here’s your money back”?

If I go to my utility company and say I want my last payment back, do you think they’ll give it to me?

When we put our trust and faith in Jesus Christ for what He did for us, and know that it is He, and not us, Who has the power to save us from Hell, we are recognizing that our sin debt has been paid for. That payment will not be rescinded. It will not be reversed. It is a final and eternal payment.

For this reason, we cannot lose our salvation because of sin. If we could, then we could never be saved – because our sins are as numerous as the leaves of fall, and we have no power to either earn our salvation or reverse our salvation. If we did not make the payment, do you really think God would agree to give the payment back to us?

What an insult to Jesus Christ it is to think our ability to sin is greater than His ability to pay our sin debt.

An interesting nugget of knowledge from Scripture: There are only two incidences in Scripture where the words “it is finished” are found.

In these words of Jesus Christ, there is life for any and all who will come to Him by faith.

The other Scripture where the words “it is finished” are found is in James 1:15. And the root word used is “teleo” - the same as in John 19:30.

Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.” James 1:15

Sin, in the end, when it is finished, brings death.

Don't finish your life without Christ.

Thank you, God, for grace.

Winning by any Means?

I had an exterminator tell me one time, that for every cockroach you see, there are 10-20 hiding that you don't see.







Voter Fraud Expected to be Rampant

Wary Eyes on "Sign up and Vote"

Boon for Voter Fraud

Voter Fraud Watch

Voter Fraud Chaos

The common denominator here is... you guessed it...the liberal Democratic party.
Their spokesmen try to say that Republicans greatly exaggerate voter fraud, but the facts say otherwise.

I'm praying that every fraudulent vote cast will be caught. I'm not worried about polls, because they can be skewed. I'm depending on the patriots of this country to get off their apathy and get out and vote.

Real Men. Working Men. Responsible Men

You need to read this.

As I said in a comment on his blog, this guy is the kind of guy that makes America great. He works hard, perseveres, never gives up, and takes his losses like a man. Then he regroups and goes at it again.

He doesn't expect something for nothing.

There are many men in America just like Tug. My husband is one of them. Real men. Hard workers.

Some of them eventually succeed in life, and do well financially. Now along comes Obama, who says they are selfish, and should share their wealth. They should give a portion of their hard earned money to the deadbeats and panhandlers.
