Ever since the announcement of Sarah Palin as John Mccain’s running mate, people who may not be Christian or Conservative have started frothing at the mouth at the thought of another “looney Christian” in the high office. This leads me to wonder, when Christianity became the only religion not covered under “freedom of religion?” After all, does not the First Amendment apply as much to Jesus as it does Muhammad? Or Buddha? Or as much as the Atheistic belief of no God? The other thing you will hear is separation of church and state, never mind the fact that this phrase comes from a letter from Jefferson to the early Baptists about not letting a set DENOMINATION (which was called “religion” back then) have supreme jurisdiction above all others.
You know how things are getting with our media when Whoopi Goldberg biggest fear of Palin is having another fundamentalist Christian in the White House, even before Whoopi we had Rosie O’Donell on a daily basis comparing Christian fundamentalists Islamic terrorists; do not even get me started on Joy! Of course, than we have Matt Damon, who seems to think that if you believe in creationism you are somehow incapable of breathing, never mind the fact that if Damon did his job outside of Hollywood he would be slapped with the label “Schizophrenic” and be put in a big, white mansion faster than he could say “Bourne 4”; goes to show you what kind of a job HE has! Probably the worst of them all, Bill Maher; with his seething hatred for anything named God, I am surprised he does not go to bed in “I hate religion” pajamas. That is Hollywood/media for you, telling us what we should, believe regardless of the fact that a monkey could do their job.
It is not just the media, it is our politicians too. Just look at the Democratic party, when was the last time they EVER wanted to help us? They want to impose Pro-Choice policies on us, force us to deny what the Bible says on homo-sexuality, deny us our freedom of speech, and take down all of the Christian resources in this country. The Republicans treat us like political pawns, claiming to have the same values as we do than getting into office and doing the things we put them into office to stop! Bush has been a great president and will always be the best president since Reagan; I REFUSE to let the media brainwash me to believe that he is a lame duck or bad president. They are trying to rewrite history, just like they are doing with Americas Christian roots; even closer to the real event times. It is BECAUSE of Bush’s faith that they hate him so much, and because he is a Christian that is why they want to keep them out now. For the last 60 years, all that our government has done is try to silence us, by getting rid of prayer in the schools, by banning the teaching of creationism for a 100% scientifically broken hypothesis, attempting to label religious conviction as a “hate crime,” bullying churches into submission with the IRS, trying to oust Judeo-Christian objects from all public areas, etc…
Lastly, Americans hearts are changing; you can see it all over the place. Men and Women spewing hateful thing about us or about God/Jesus, or the Church; becoming violent and angry against truth and following lies. When more Americans are turning to other false religions or false Christianity, it is hard to tell what will happen to the church in America? All I know is Christ is returning soon and we will no longer be this worlds punching bag, but for everyone who gets left behind will face judgment of the likes never been seen before and never again. I pray they will change their hearts and not face it, but sadly hearts are growing colder. :(
John 15:19-22
"If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. Remember the word that I said to you, 'A servant is not greater than his master.' If they persecuted Me, they will also persecute you. If they kept My word, they will keep yours also. But all these things they will do to you for My name's sake, because they do not know Him who sent Me. If I had not come and spoken to them, they would have no sin, but now they have no excuse for their sin.”

Great post, I couldn’t agree w/ you more. I think actors are overpaid, over rated and obviously poorly educated. They think people give a raisin what they say or believe (major bloated egos).
ReplyDeleteHowever we live in a world that watches American Idol in record numbers, the title of the show itself proves the mentality of people’s hearts. The church is so worldly they are no heavenly good as a whole.
I am glad you pointed out the hypocrisy in both parties; it is becoming more and more obvious how little we Christians have in common w/ this world. Though Christ warned us this would be the state of affairs signaling his imminent return. My eyes are fixated on the skies anymore. There is so much hope and joy in that.
I see the so called Christians of today and I often am amazed we are still here. He is returning very soon; don’t know the day or the hour but I am convinced of the season and what is coming. Most are unprepared and are luke warm, and are falsely converted to a faith that doesn’t exist. I’ve often asked the question; how does one witness to those that believe they have a relationship w/ Christ but lack any fruit of the spirit? Now I know, through God’s Law, but it doesn’t make you popular to do that.
Back to the Christian’s in America, when TD Jakes is preaching on Dr. Phil everything BUT the gospel and Joel Osteen is on Larry King saying he does NOT preach repentance because “Well he just isn’t that kind of pastor, he wants to lift people out of that negative mentality”. When the bulk of pastor’s are preaching a Gospel other than the Bible, this country is non-essential and in line for God’s judgment. The true Church needs to get out there and proclaim the Word to those following these doctrines of demons; Name names and call out the heretical teachings.
American Christians need to change their channels, drop their remotes, dust off their Bibles, throw away their idols (for example; the angel dust and feathers, google ‘breaker anointing’ to see how ridiculous this is) and as a great teacher advises “Go serve their King”! Okay I’ll get off my soap box (for now).

Look at the leeway God-haters have in contemporary media to spew their disdain for all things holy. Today it's comical, and even noble, to ridicule Christianity. The good thing is that Jesus is ridiculed while other religions are tolerated; Christianity must be a threat to the godless.
