The War on Christianity - Enough!
Have you had enough yet? I hope so because I’ve had it up to my eyebrows!
Now an elementary school in Massachusetts has changed Lee Greenwood’s song, “God Bless the U.S.A.” to “We Love the U.S.A.”!
It is my sincere hope that Mr. Greenwood sues the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, the Commonwealth’s Superintendent of Education, the Local School Board, the Principal of the elementary school, and the teacher who had the audacity to change the title and words to his most famous song – It is time to attack the secularists who would destroy this nation!
It is time we stand up and be counted! I am so-o-o tired of this war on Christianity! I want everybody to remember what Patrick Henry said, “It cannot be emphasized too clearly and too often that this nation was founded, not by religionists, but by Christians; not on religion, but on the gospel of Jesus Christ. For this very reason, peoples of other faiths have been afforded asylum, prosperity, and freedom of worship here.”
I try to remember what my Savior, Jesus Christ, said as he hung on the cross: “Forgive them Father, for they know not what they do!” But that’s not working for me anymore and for two good reasons: I am not perfect, as Christ is, and I do not believe the forces behind this war on Christianity are ignorant to what they are trying to do! Their sole purpose is to destroy the foundation this nation was established on – Freedom! Freedoms granted by our Creator; freedoms our founding fathers acknowledged from our Creator because they recognized the weaknesses of man. ‘Freedoms’ granted by a government are only privileges – Consider that for a moment and ask yourself this: “Would I still have the Bill of Rights if it were left to the government?”
That is the difference between ‘rights’ (freedom) and ‘privileges’ – Every day we see government trying to figure out ways to enslave us and erase our freedoms! The government wants to treat our freedoms as privileges so they can remove them to control us! God, on the other hand, granted us our freedoms because it has always been His desire that His people be free and it is spoken of frequently in the Bible.
The government we ‘loaned’ our powers to consistently have proven our founding fathers were the visionaries we used to study in school (but no longer does that happen!). To prove to you that the government is not our ‘friend’, consider this: When was the last time you heard any congressman, president, or judge recite the preamble to the Bill of Rights? If you can, you are older than I am (69) – So, assuming you have never heard the Preamble to the Bill of Rights, I present it to you in all it’s glory and understanding our founding fathers had of mankind:
The First 10 Amendments to the
Constitution as Ratified by the States December 15, 1791 Preamble Congress OF THE United States
begun and held at the City of New York, on Wednesday
the Fourth of March, one thousand seven hundred and eighty nine. THE Conventions of a number of the States having at the time of their adopting the Constitution, expressed a desire, in order to prevent misconstruction or abuse of its powers, that further declaratory and restrictive clauses should be added: And as extending the ground of public confidence in the Government, will best insure the beneficent ends of its institution RESOLVED by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America, in Congress assembled, two thirds of both Houses concurring, that the following Articles be proposed to the Legislatures of the several States, as Amendments to the Constitution of the United States, all or any of which Articles, when ratified by three fourths of the said Legislatures, to be valid to all intents and purposes, as part of the said Constitution; viz.: ARTICLES in addition to, and Amendment of the Constitution of the United States of America, proposed by Congress, and ratified by the Legislatures of the several States, pursuant to the fifth Article of the original Constitution. |
The emphasis is mine in paragraph 1. The reason the people and the states felt the need for our Bill of Rights was because they feared elected officials would, eventually, do exactly what these past two administrations have been doing and are continuing to do: Diminish and steal our God-given rights to better control us and bring us into the New World Order, governed by unelected officials (elitists)! The best way to do that is to remove God, the Creator, from every aspect of American life, including government!
I am not advocating we become a theocracy, far from it; our founders left England for religious freedom – I want everybody to worship as they feel is appropriate for them or not worship at all; that is a personal decision and none of my business! – Neither is it your business as to how I worship; that is between me and the Lord! I point, once again to Patrick Henry: “It cannot be emphasized too clearly and too often that this nation was founded, not by religionists, but by Christians; not on religion, but on the gospel of Jesus Christ. For this very reason, peoples of other faiths have been afforded asylum, prosperity, and freedom of worship here.”
The day we allow the last utterance of God to be removed from our everyday life; the day we allow these one-world government creeps to succeed in diminishing American exceptionalism, is the day the nation ceases to exist – That will not happen on my watch! So, if you do not like a patriotic, Christian song – Don’t listen to it; write your own song! Leave intact the original artist’s song because it had special meaning when he or she wrote it and that meaning doesn’t change, only the listener!
Christians are taught to turn the other cheek and I have tried to do that but my cheeks are so bruised … I will no longer turn the other cheek to a non-Christian who slaps me or my faith – I will be slapping back!
Speak out often; speak out loudly!!!
