"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."

Are YOU a "whosoever?"

God Bless America!!! Please?

Genesis 13:12
“Abram dwelled in the land of Canaan, and Lot…pitched his tent toward Sodom.”

As any Bible reader knows, this Bible reference is about Lot, Abram’s (Abraham) nephew choosing to move his family and herds toward Sodom, away from Abraham and Abraham’s influence. Lot and his uncle raised herds of animals, and the two men’s workers began to squabble about there not being enough land for all the animals. Abraham gave Lot the choice of where to go, and Abraham would take a different direction. The story continues where Lot changed from a herdsman on the plain of the Jordan, to a man sitting at the gate of the city of Sodom….we all know what Sodom was and what sodomy is, and what life-style it embraced.

Anyway, eventually, God in his wrath against the sins of Sodom and Gomorrah, destroyed the two cities. Lot, being a just man (prior to the sins of the city, was spared…he and his wife and daughters. His wife didn’t survive the trip, having liked the sinful city too much and looked back, God turned her into a pillar of salt.


This past week, POTUS flew to New York to embrace to alternative-lifestyle crowd, and the new state law allowing same-sex marriage. Senators and Representatives can pass whatever laws they choose, but, if they are contrary to God’s laws, they will eventually pay the price, and so will POTUS, for encouraging this mess and not speaking out against it. And so will America continue to pay.

God’s laws have not been repealed. Sin is sin, and it was back then and is still now. Jesus did not wink at sin. Many liberals say Jesus only showed love, he didn’t judge. But they are wrong. When the men brought the woman caught in adultery to Jesus, and he said those famous words, where are thine accusers? He wasn’t condoning the sin of adultery. He said to the woman he wouldn’t judge her at that time but “go and sin no more.”


America is in a cesspool of sin, whether it’s the “alternative” life style, adultery, lying, stealing, being disrespectful to your parents, cheating, coveting your neighbors stuff, killing the unborn, sin is sin, and America seems to think that it’s just a matter of choice.

Killing babies is considered choice, even though God creates every baby.

Jeremiah 1:5, KJV

“Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee."

Our own (S.C.) state legislators couldn’t come to grips that a fetus is a person. They tried to pass a resolution giving a fetus personhood, but failed. Imagine, a baby isn’t a person!!

It’s choice when we vote for folks who never held a real job before becoming leaders of the free world. It’s choice when we believe the liberal media that Christians are “backward.” It’s choice in the name of “free speech” by the media to destroy conservatives who seek office. This choice shows their true colors.


Yes, it’s our choice, to follow the straight line of God’s word, or have this country perish.



The 4th of July, and the Coming Election


POTUS is cycling through another election for president. He said he wants to be reelected because he didn’t finish his agenda. And just what was his agenda prior to the 2008 election? To take down America? He didn’t come right out and say that, but he said it in “so many words.”

Dale Lindsborg , Washington Post reported,

(While this was reported earlier, prior to the 2008 vote, no one listened. Maybe they will now.)


From Sunday's 07 Sept. 2008 11:48:04 EST, Televised "Meet the Press"

THE THEN Senator Obama was asked about his stance on the American Flag.

General Bill Ginn' USAF (ret.) asked Obama to explain WHY he doesn't follow protocol when the National Anthem is played.

The General stated to Obama that according to the United States Code, Title 36, Chapter 10, Sec. 171...During rendition of the national anthem, when the flag is displayed, all present (except those in uniform) are expected to stand at attention facing the flag with the right hand over the heart. Or, at the very least, "Stand and Face It".

'Senator' Obama replied:

"As I've said about the flag pin, I don't want to be perceived as taking sides". "There are a lot of people in the world to whom the American flag is a symbol of oppression." "The anthem itself conveys a war-like message…You know, the bombs bursting in air and all that sort of thing."
Lindsborg continues:

Obama continued: "The National Anthem should be 'swapped' for something less parochial and less bellicose. I like the song 'I'd Like To Teach the World To Sing'. If that were our anthem, then, I might salute it. In my opinion, we should consider reinventing our National Anthem as well as 'redesign' our Flag to better offer our enemies hope and love.



It's my intention, if elected, to disarm America to the level of acceptance to our Middle East Brethren. If we, as a Nation of warring people, conduct ourselves like the nations of Islam, where peace prevails - - - perhaps a state or period of mutual accord could exist between our governments ......." [char-de-whit emphasis added]


When I become President, I will seek a pact of agreement to end hostilities between those who have been at war or in a state of enmity, and a freedom from disquieting oppressive thoughts. We as a Nation, have placed upon the nations of Islam, an unfair injustice which is WHY my wife disrespects the Flag and she and I have attended several flag burning ceremonies in the past". [char-de-whit emphasis added]

"Of course now, I have found myself about to become the President of the United States and I have put my hatred aside. I will use my power to bring CHANGE to this Nation, and offer the people a new path. My wife and I look forward to becoming our Country's First black Family.

Indeed, CHANGE is about to overwhelm the United States of America " [char-de-whit emphasis added]

(end of Lindsborg’s article.)


You can’t say he didn’t warn us. I, for one, never knew until today (6/27/11) that our POTUS and FLOTUS were flag burners. I did suspect he was out to destroy the country, but these words of his prior to the last election have not been rescinded or apologized for.


I will fly my flag of July 4th to symbolize the Freedoms we still have, and pray to God that we will have an election in Nov. 2012 for president. I pray God will be merciful to us and put a different person in office, a Christian-values person, who loves God, loves America, and believes children have value and personhood, even inside the mother’s womb.


As our Independence Day comes, I implore you all to do a few things to celebrate.

Hug a soldier.
Mourn the soldiers who gave the supreme sacrifice for our freedom.
Fly your American Flag.
Send a letter to POTUS that American is not going to bow to the enemies, and “make nice.” (I learned as a kid that “nice guys finish last.”)
And be very vigilant with the upcoming election. What you hear on mainstream media is probably NOT true.


Have a Happy 4th of July, and do something very American…Have a hot dog in a bun and a piece of apple pie.



God Bless America!!! Please?

The Greatness of America: How Long Will It Last?

The Greatness of America:

De Tocqueville of France, over a hundred years ago, visited America. Upon his return home he wrote: “I sought for the greatness of America in her harbors and rivers and fertile fields, and her mines and commerce. It was not there. Not until I went into the churches and heard her pulpits flame with righteousness did I understand the greatness of her power. America is great because she is good; and if America ever ceases to be good, America will cease to be great.”


Liars & Thieves


When I was a kid my folks used to say that liars usually accused someone of things they were doing themselves. If someone said, Tommy stole my toys,” he usually meant, “he stole my toys before I could steal his.” The implication was a thief always thinks others are thieves, a liar thinks others are liars, a person with no patriotism usually has allegiance somewhere else. A person whose formative years were spent in Indonesia has little understanding of American patriotism, Boy Scouts, Little League, and playing by the rules.


Years ago the liberals were stating that there was a dire need for gun control because right-to-care advocates were buying guns that were “some-how” ending up in the hands of the drug cartels of Mexico. The resulting remedy was to enact very strict gun control so legally purchased guns didn’t fall in the hands of the drug cartel. Fast-forward to 2011, and you have this “Fast and Furious” gun program conducted BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, in Obama’s administration “smuggling” guns across the border to Mexico to drug lords!!!!!!! And NO ONE gave the o.k. NO ONE is responsible.


This smuggling operation led to the loss of lives of the very police sent down there to control these tyrants! I’m not sure of WHY they were selling guns in Mexico, except, THEY SAY, was to infiltrate the drug cartel organization. When the news came out that it was the U.S. Government behind getting these terrible guns into Mexico, and that innocent people died, the ATF supervisors response was “you had to scramble a few eggs to make an omelet.” Last count, according to a report on Foxnews.com was 2000 weapons allowed across the border under Obama’s watch led to shooting 150 or more Mexican law enforcement officers and soldiers.


It is already claimed by law-abiding 2nd Amendment Rights folks that Obama and his administration will use these deaths as reasons to target our 2nd amendment rights, and sign on to the UN pursuit of international gun control.


Wake Up, my dear friends. The gun they come after could be yours!


AT Taken Down


To my friends at American Thinker.com, it was interesting to learn that “somebody” must be getting rattled. Wednesday, June 15th American Thinker suffered what was called a “Denial of Service attack.” During peak traffic hours their website was down. It took their technicians much hard work to figure it out and get back online. AT Editor, Thomas Lifson, wrote, We are secure in the knowledge that we are making a difference when our enemies seek to silence us.”


Boeing and the NLRB Bullies


For those who have been following, Boeing has moved into North Charleston, SC, built a tremendously large plant to manufacture airplanes. They have an even bigger plant in Washington State, and continue to build planes there. One reason they came to South Carolina, is SC is a “right to work” state, where employees are protected from harassment about unions. Washington State is a union state. After years of work strikes that slowed down the production of airplanes, and increased their costs, Boeing decided they needed an alternative to work stoppages. They decided to come to South Carolina to buffer their production. They DID NOT CLOSE any sites in Washington. They DID NOT eliminate or reduce any jobs in Washington. In fact they continue to ADD jobs at that site. They have NOT REDUCED any benefits in Washington, or reduced any payroll.


Now, the NLRB has sued Boeing for “seeking revenge” against union workers for past work stoppages. The goal of NLRB is to have Boeing shut its plant in Charleston (even before it opens) and move these 1,000 jobs to Washington.


Several court hearings are taking place. One so-called administrative law judge advised Boeing they should settle with NLRB, or this could get costly.


A bully is someone who wants your lunch money just because he can punch you in the face to get it. So far, our illustrious president, elected is a large part by union money and strong arm tactics, who has said much about jobs, jobs, jobs lately has NOT spoken out against the NLRB. But then, he ignores the lawyers telling him he is breaking the law with the Libya campaign, so maybe HE is a bully, too.


From Bullets to Bucks


The POTUS is now circumventing the globe in his pursuit of reelection. He states he isn’t finished with his program to “change America.” My firm belief is he wants to change it into a Marxist, socialist country with no personal freedoms.


Anyway, as everyone knows, the economy is in the tank. Unemployment has risen again, and, no matter what the administration says, we have dipped for the second time into another recession. The housing market is volatile. If you don’t think so, try selling one, or buying one. If you don’t have cash, you will probably not qualify to buy. The banks have seriously changed what a person needs for credit ratings and down payments.


With the administration flexing its muscles via presidential decrees, no one knows what’s coming next. This has made this “recovery” very elusive. It is reported (Ed Lasky, AT editor, 6/7/11) that POTUS no longer receives economic updates or daily briefings. POTUS now blames the failing economy and higher unemployment on ATM machines taking jobs away from tellers. (He fails to reveal that some greedy banks now charge customers when they need to do service via a live person teller.) Anyway, electronics are the blame, along with George Bush, of course.


Whatever the cause, small business owners are hurt badly. One such person commented on Obama’s “shovel ready” jobs success. This person wrote that a little over two years ago he had a thriving business with a 25-person workforce. About 18 months ago he started laying off people. Eight months ago he laid off his last person. He closed up shop about four months ago, and is now waiting foreclosure on his home.


Gas prices went sky high since this POTUS took over. Just today (6/23) he decided to release some oil from our reserves. And the price of oil on the stock market dropped. Hopefully the prices at the pump will come down, but no guarantees.

How is that Hope and Change feeling now? The election will soon be here. Will you continue with Mr. Hope and Change? Or will you work diligently for returning America to fundamental believers in a living God?


The real answer is for America, and the politicians, to turn from their wicked ways and return to biblical principles. If we as individuals and as a people don’t forsake all forms of wickedness, and pray for God to forgive us for turning from Him, fall on our knees in prayer, and God maybe will forgive our sins and heal our land. Prayer and repentance. Washington is outlawing the first, and ignoring the second.

Subject: Sad Read

I received the below message in an e-mail and it shook me to my bones. Please read it through, and read my Post Script at the bottom. Thank You.
Subject: Sad Read


SCARY, read the USA obituary at the end


DR. WALTER WILLIAMS predicts that Obama can not lose the 2012 election.

 
 IN ADDITION TO THE VOTING BLOCKS HE MENTIONS, THERE IS ANOTHER HUGE GROUP: THE NEARLY ONE-HALF OF ALL ADULTS DO NOT PAY ANY TAXES AND, IN FACT, MOST OF THEM RECEIVE MONEY FROM THE GOVERNMENT. THESE PEOPLE DO NOT WANT TO "SHAKE THE BOAT" TO DO ANYTHING TO STOP THE FLOW OF TAXPAYER MONEY TO THEMSELVES.


Dr. Williams prediction: Maybe you have read some newspaper articles written by Dr. Williams a conservative economist who happens to be Black. He has taught at several Universities and is currently teaching at George Mason University .


No Matter What


By Dr. Walter Williams
Can President Obama be defeated in 2012? No. He can't. I am going on record as saying that President Barak Obama will win a second term.

 
The media won't tell you this because a good election campaign means hundreds of millions (or in Obama's case billions) of dollars to them in advertising.



But the truth is, there simply are no conditions under which Barak Obama can be defeated in 2012.



The quality of the Republican candidate doesn't matter. Obama gets reelected. Nine percent unemployment? No problem. Obama will win. Gas prices moving toward five dollars a gallon? He still wins. The economy soars or goes into the gutter. Obama wins. War in the Middle East ? He wins a second term. America's role as the leading Superpower disappears? Hurrah for Barak Obama! The U.S. government rushes toward bankruptcy, the dollar continues to sink on world markets and the price of daily goods and services soars due to inflation fueled by Obama's extraordinary deficit spending? Obama wins handily.
  You are crazy Williams. Don't you understand how volatile politics can be when overall economic, government, and world conditions are declining? Sure I do.


 And that's why I know Obama will win. The American people are notoriously ignorant of economics. And economics is the key to why Obama should be defeated.

 Even when Obama's policies lead the nation to final ruin, the majority of the American people are going to believe the bait-and-switch tactics Obama and his supporters in the media will use to explain why it isn't his fault. After all, things were much worse than understood when he took office.
 Obama's reelection is really a very, very simple math problem. Consider the following:

 
1) Blacks will vote for Obama blindly. Period. Doesn't matter what he does. It's a race thing. He's one of us,


2) College educated women will vote for Obama. Though they will be offended by this, they swoon at his oratory. It's really not more complex than that,


3) Liberals will vote for Obama. He is their great hope,




4) Democrats will vote for Obama. He is the leader of their party and his coat tails will carry them to victory nationwide,


5) Hispanics will vote for Obama. He is the path to citizenship for those who are illegal and Hispanic leaders recognize the political clout they carry in the Democratic Party,




6) Union members will vote overwhelmingly for Obama. He is their key to money and power in business, state and local politics,




7) Big Business will support Obama. They already have. He has almost $1 Billion dollars in his reelection purse gained largely from his connections with Big Business and is gaining more everyday. Big Business loves Obama because he gives them access to taxpayer money so long as they support his social and political agenda,




8) The media love him. They may attack the people who work for him, but they love him. After all, to not love him would be racist,




9) Most other minorities and special interest groups will vote for him. Oddly, the overwhelming majority of Jews and Muslims will support him because they won't vote Republican. American Indians will support him. Obviously homosexuals tend to vote Democratic. And lastly,




10) Approximately half of independents will vote for Obama. And he doesn't need anywhere near that number because he has all of the groups previously mentioned. The President will win an overwhelming victory in 2012.


-- Dr. Walter Williams


Obituary-Very Interesting!


Born 1776, Died 2008


It doesn't hurt to read this several times.


Professor Joseph Olson of Hamline University School of Law in St. Paul , Minnesota , points out some interesting facts concerning the last Presidential election:


• Number of States won by: Obama:19 McCain: 29



• Square miles of land won by: Obama:580,000 McCain: 2,427,000



• Population of counties won by: Obama:127million McCain: 143 million



• Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by: Obama: 13.2 McCain: 2.1


Professor Olson adds: "In aggregate, the map of the territory McCain won was mostly the land owned by the taxpaying citizens of the country.


Obama territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in low income tenements and living off various forms of government welfare..."


Olson believes the United States is now somewhere between the "complacency and apathy" phase of Professor Tyler's definition of democracy, with some forty percent of the nation's population already having reached the "governmental dependency" phase.

 If Congress grants amnesty and citizenship to twenty million criminal invaders called illegal's - and they vote - then we can say goodbye to the USA in fewer than five years.


MY Post Script:

If you don’t want the above to become truth and reality, we must work very hard. First, we must pray to God to protect us from The One. We also must show ourselves humbled by God’s grace by repenting of our own liberal ways. President Obama didn’t get elected in a vacuum. America has much to repent of.

2 Chronicles 7:14

“If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.”

After we have fallen on our faces before God, we must roll up our sleeves and go to work to defeat The One. We must respond to every liberal editorial that slams the likes of Sarah Palin. We must inform media outlets that we will hold THEM accountable for the liberal bias on their news. We must campaign in person, on e-mails, blogs, and other outlets against The One.

What is at stake on this next election is that it could well be our LAST one. While the government has led to 99% of this problem economy, most of us have contributed to this situation ourselves by not being more independent of the government. It is virtually impossible to not be dependent on the government, and that is how they want it. Dependency grows power—by the government.

What is at stake is our country, our very lives. Stand Up America, and take back America from The One and his minions. The country we lose could be our own!!
