The Psalm 83 War

I write this article to those who claim to be Christians and are interested in the times we live in. There are presently those who are pressuring Israel to give up more land. Their real motive is to eliminate Israel altogether. They are written about in the Holy Scriptures by many prophets but, Psalm 83 explains them most clearly; their goals, actions, and the results of these actions. The graphic below shows their ancient names and their present locations in the Middle East.

Middle East Map of Psalm 83

The table below lists these people groups and their modern names. Their histories and movements are easily traced and have been done so in the book Psalm 83, The Missing Prophesy Revealed by Bill Salus.

Tents of Edom Ishmalites Moab Hagarenes Gebal Ammon Amalek Philistia Tyre Assyria

Palestinians/ & Southern Jordanians Saudis (Ishmael father of Arabs) Palestinians & Central Jordanians Egyptians (Hagar Egypt Matriarch) Hezbollah & Northern Lebanese Palestinians & Northern Jordanians Arabs of the Sinai Area Hamas of the Gaza Strip Hezbollah & Southern Lebanese Syrians and Northern Iraqi’s

To anyone who listens to current news events, the war described in Psalm 83 is rapidly approaching. And to those who can read the Bible, God’s reaction to it is equally clear – He will equip the Israeli IDF with the ability to defeat their enemies. As Psalm 83 predicts, these Arab confederates will be subjugated or destroyed all together and their ‘ancient hatred’ of Israel will be responsible for this defeat. They forgot God’s ancient covenant with the Jewish people through Abraham.

“I will make you a great nation; I will bless you and make your name great; and you shall be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you; and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”  Genesis 12:2, 3

God is doing a work in these days to restore the Jewish peoples to their ancient birthright. He first begins by bringing them back to their covenant land. He will then deal with them in ways designed to bring them back into covenant faith. Lastly He will open their hearts to receive Jesus as their Messiah. But, this is God’s work and His alone. As He works with them, we can either be blessed or cursed depending on our own actions towards them. Are the Jews perfect? Certainly not, but then, neither are we and we also depend upon God’s grace and mercy just as they do.

Isaiah prophesied that in the last days He would bring the people of Israel home and that it would be a ‘banner’ to the nations:

“He will set up a banner for the nations, And will assemble the outcasts of Israel, And gather together the dispersed of Judah From the four corners of the earth.” – Isaiah 11:12

God wants to get the attention of ‘the nations’, that is, the Gentiles peoples of the world – “I am doing this work, don’t interfere!” Christians, of all people, should rejoice in this because it means if God will honor His covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, even after so many years, He will honor His covenant with us as well.

This Psalm 83 war, which I believe will soon happen, will be a ‘watershed’ moment for all peoples. The Church of Jesus Christ will be divided into sheep and goats largely over this issue. Islam will suffer a defeat from which it will never recover as a result of this war. The stage will be set for the next act which will be the Gog and Magog war of Ezekiel 38 and soon after that, Armageddon, during which the Lord will return. This is indeed a ‘watershed’ moment for all peoples!

I issue this warning because America’s current leaders seem to be clueless as to what is really happening in the Middle East and its consequences for us as a nation. 

The conclusion of the war of the heavens is about to begin, the result of which will be Satan and his fallen angels being cast out of heaven and down to earth in “great wrath because he knows his time is short”. It will be a time of GREAT upheaval but, those who know God and His plans will be prepared to be part of the great harvest that will also come during these times.

The Blood-Red Moons of 2014/2015

Jewish Rabbis teach that blood-red moons signify trouble for Israel. The Jewish Talmud (book of tradition) records: "When the moon is in eclipse, it is a bad omen for Israel... If its face is as red as blood, it is a sign that the sword is coming to the world...” Since the time of Jesus’ first coming there have been exactly seven back to back occurrences of blood-red moons which occurred on the Jewish feast of Passover first and then on the Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot). We know from history that each of these occurrences signaled momentous events happening for Israel and the world.

For example: 1492 marked the end of the Spanish Inquisition in which thousands of Jews were killed or forced to convert to Christianity. Interestingly, it also marked the time when Columbus set sail from Spain to discover the new world!; the 1948 heavenly event marked the re-establishing of the state of Israel amidst war and bloodshed; and again in 1967 blood-red moons marked the taking back of Jerusalem by Israel for the first time in 2000 years.

The eighth occurrence of back-to-back blood-red moons on Passover and Sukkot will happen in 2014/2015. What does this mean? Why are the feasts of Passover and Sukkot signified? If God created the heavens and the earth and if He set in them heavenly signs to mankind, which I believe He did, then what are we to learn from this event?

The Feast of Passover forever highlights the favor of God towards sinful man in that God has provided a way of rescue to those who will receive it. So a blood-red moon on Passover signifies to mankind that there is but one way to escape the trouble that is coming on the earth and that is through acceptance of God’s sacrificial Lamb, Jesus Christ.

In the Feast of Tabernacles there are several themes at work. It was the time of harvest, both gathering the new and thanking God for His past favor. It was also the time of taking water from the Pool of Siloam and pouring it out on the Altar as a drink offering thanking God for the rain both given and promised, without which there would be no harvest. As the priests were conducting this water ceremony on the seventh and last day of the feast, Jesus stood in the crowd of worshippers and declared loudly, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.” He was of course referring to the Holy Spirit whom He later would send from the Father.

This ceremony was done after sundown and it was accompanied by an impressive ceremony of lights. It was during this time that Jesus declared “I am the light of the world! He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness but have the light of life.”

Now that we know something of the background of Passover and Sukkot, how do they help us understand why these blood-red moons occur at this time? My advice to you is to heed the James admonition, “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.” (James 1:5).

For what it is worth, I think God may be warning us that we are entering very momentous and troubling times and only those who trust in His ark of safety, the Lamb slain from the beginning of the earth, Jesus the Christ, will safely navigate these deep waters. Thus the first occurrence is on Passover.

The second blood-red moon falls on Sukkot which represents the ingathering of the harvest. It is a signal to those virgins who have oil in their lamps to go out into the darkness with their lights shining, showing the lost the way to safety. Jesus declared He was the Light of the world but He also told us we are lights as well – this is the time to shine forth amidst the darkness.

I also believe that those who trust in God alone are about to witness a great outpouring of water (rain) – the Holy Spirit. As James wrote: “Therefore be patient, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, waiting patiently for it until it receives the early and latter rain. You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.” (James 5:7, 8). The farmer referred to here is none other than the Lord Jesus and those who receive salvation are the precious fruit of the earth.

May we all be prepared.

The End of America?

American news today is full of such phrases as “Going of the Financial Cliff” but little is heard of the thousands that are murdered every day in American cities or the thousands of babies that are aborted every day in America. Modern America has accepted the psychological dogma taught in the public schools that mankind is just mind and body. Little or nothing is taught about man’s soul or spirit and yet most of the problems we face are issues of the soul and spirit.

There is such a thing as evil and wickedness. Few today want to admit this, rather explaining them as matters of morality, which they can define according to their own dictates. However, the final truth is that man is not the creator, God is. The sum of all man’s attempts to avoid this truth is that man will have to give an account to God for his actions. All creation teaches that man has an end and then he will be judged according to what he has done in life. And the standard will be was he righteous or unrighteous?

Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God. – 1 Corinthians 6:9, 10

God has an answer to the wickedness that so easily infects man and that answer is called His church –

And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it. – Matthew 16:18

But we need to understand that entry into this church is not subject to man’s standards but to God’s. Only those who are set apart (sanctified) by the Holy Spirit are allowed to join – 1 Corinthians 1:2[1], 12:13[2], Ephesians 2:4-10[3]. There is a false church that masquerades as Christ’s church and is described in Revelation as a Harlot but it is controlled by the world’s standards and not God’s.

The woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet, and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls, having in her hand a golden cup full of abominations and the filthiness of her fornication. And on her forehead a name was written: MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. - Revelation 17:4, 5

At present there are true believers mixed with false believers in her but the time is coming when God will say “Come out of her my people, lest you share of her sins and lest receive of her plagues.” (Revelation 18:4).

A recent poll about Gay marriage illustrates this truth -

Poll: Gay Marriage Gains Support, Especially Among Catholics

Roman Catholic voters are more accepting of gay marriage than are other Americans, according to a poll released Wednesday.

While same-sex unions are approved by 48 percent to 46 percent overall, Catholics give them the thumbs-up by 49 percent to 43 percent, the survey from Quinnipiac University found.

“It seems pretty clear that attitudes toward same-sex marriage in American society are changing rapidly,” said Peter Brown, assistant director of the Connecticut University’s polling institute.

“While the country remains split on the issue, supporters have come pretty far in the last four years."

The poll found that men in particular have shifted their position. Four years ago they opposed gay marriage by 61 percent to 31 percent. That figure is now down to 50 percent opposition and 43 percent support. Women now back gay marriage by 52 percent to 42 percent.

The biggest opposition among any group is with white Protestants, who oppose it 63 percent to 32 percent.

In America today the great worry is “Will the economy crash”?  But, unless we address the problem of unrighteousness, we are facing not only a financial cliff but also a societal cliff in which the American family will be destroyed. That means the end of America because every nation is built upon its families.

But, this does not have to spell the end of America. If true repentance would sweep the nation, beginning with the Church, we could yet see our greatest days of blessings. God would want a nation to stand for righteousness and for the tiny nation of Israel, and we could be that nation.

Obama's Actions Speak Louder Than His Words_2nd edition

The Book of Psalms declares, " Some trust in chariots, and some in horses; But we will remember the name of the LORD our God." We now have a Commander in Chief who doesn't act as if he believes this. Following are the actions that prove this.

2. Acts of Hostility From The Obama-Led Military Toward People Of Biblical Faith: 

1. June 2011 – The Department of Veterans Affairs forbids references to God and Jesus during burial ceremonies at Houston National Cemetery...
2. August 2011 – The Air Force stops teaching the Just War theory to officers in California because the course is taught by chaplains and is based on a philosophy introduced by St. Augustine in the third century AD – a theory long taught by civilized nations across the world (except America).
3. September 2011 – Air Force Chief of Staff prohibits commanders from notifying airmen of programs and services available to them from chaplains.
4. September 2011 – The Army issues guidelines for Walter Reed Medical Center stipulating that “No religious items (i.e. Bibles, reading materials and/or facts) are allowed to be given away or used during a visit.”
5. November 2011 – The Air Force Academy rescinds support for Operation Christmas Child, a program to send holiday gifts to impoverished children across the world, because the program is run by a Christian charity.
6. November 2011 – The Air Force Academy pays $80,000 to add a Stonehenge-like worship center for pagans, druids, witches and Wiccans.
7. February 2012 – The U. S. Military Academy at West Point dis-invites three star Army general and decorated war hero Lieutenant General William G. (“Jerry”) Boykin (retired) from speaking at an event because he is an outspoken Christian.
8. February 2012 – The Air Force removes “God” from the patch of Rapid Capabilities Office (the word on the patch was in Latin: Dei).
9. February 2012 – The Army orders Catholic chaplains not to read a letter to parishioners that their archbishop asked them to read.

The world is a perilous place now and we cannot afford a leader who does not trust in the God of the Bible. Christians cannot afford another four years of one whose actions prove a disdain for the Christian worldview.

Any leader who thinks he or she doesn't need God's help in solving the complex issues that face our nation is not wise enough to lead us.

What You Believe Does Determine Your Actions

Many American Christians voted for Barak Hussein Obama in the last election but, they need to reconsider voting for him again this election. Obama is clearly against Biblical Christianity. You can't judge by what he says but, by what he does! Following is a partial list of his hostile actions against Christianity since 2008. 

1. Acts of Hostility Toward People Of Biblical Faith: 1. April 2008 – Obama speaks disrespectfully of Christians, saying they “cling to guns or religion” and have an “antipathy to people who aren’t like them.” 2. February 2009 – Obama announces plans to revoke conscience protection for health workers who refuse to participate in medical activities that go against their beliefs, and fully implements the plan in February 2011. 3. April 2009 – When speaking at Georgetown University, Obama orders that a monogram symbolizing Jesus’ name be covered when he is making his speech. 4. May 2009 – Obama declines to host services for the National Prayer Day (a day established by federal law) at the White House. (Instead, he honors a Muslim prayer day.) 5. April 2009 – In a deliberate act of disrespect, Obama nominated three pro-abortion ambassadors to the Vatican; of course, the pro-life Vatican rejected all three. 6. October 19, 2010 – Obama begins deliberately omitting the phrase about “the Creator” when quoting the Declaration of Independence – an omission he has made on no less than seven occasions. 7. November 2010 – Obama misquotes the National Motto, saying it is “E pluribus Unum” rather than “In God We Trust” as established by federal law. 8. January 2011 – After a federal law was passed to transfer a WWI Memorial in the Mojave Desert to private ownership, the U. S. Supreme Court ruled that the cross in the memorial could continue to stand, but the Obama administration refused to allow the land to be transferred as required by law, and refused to allow the cross to be re-erected as ordered by the Court. 9. February 2011 – Although he filled posts in the State Department, for more than two years Obama did not fill the post of religious freedom ambassador, an official that works against religious persecution across the world; he filled it only after heavy pressure from the public and from Congress. 10. April 2011 – For the first time in American history, Obama urges passage of a non-discrimination law that does not contain hiring protections for religious groups, forcing religious organizations to hire according to federal mandates without regard to the dictates of their own faith, thus eliminating conscience protection in hiring. (Of course. Muslims are exempt from obeying the federal mandate known as Obama-Care.) 11. August 2011 – The Obama administration releases its new health care rules that override religious conscience protections for medical workers in the areas of abortion and contraception. 12. November 2011 – Obama opposes inclusion of President Franklin Roosevelt’s famous D-Day Prayer in the WWII Memorial. 13. November 2011 – Unlike previous presidents, Obama studiously avoids any religious references in his Thanksgiving speech. 14. December 2011 – The Obama administration denigrates other countries’ religious beliefs as an obstacle to radical homosexual rights. 15. January 2012 – The Obama administration argues that the First Amendment provides no protection for churches and synagogues in hiring their pastors and rabbis.

16. February 2012 – The Obama administration forgives student loans in exchange for public service, but announces it will no longer forgive student loans if the public service is related to religion.

As a recent article in the Russian main news-paper, Pravda, declares -

"First, the population was dumbed down through a politicized and substandard education system based on pop culture, rather than the classics. Americans know more about their favorite TV dramas than the drama in DC that directly affects their lives. They care more for their "right" to choke down a McDonalds burger or a Burger King burger than for their constitutional rights. Then they turn around and lecture us about our rights and about our "democracy". Pride blind the foolish.  

Then their faith in God was destroyed, until their churches, all tens of thousands of different "branches and denominations" were for the most part little more than Sunday circuses and their televangelists and top protestant mega preachers were more than happy to sell out their souls and flocks to be on the "winning" side of one pseudo Marxist politician or another. Their flocks may complain, but when explained that they would be on the "winning" side, their flocks were ever so quick to reject Christ in hopes for earthly power. Even our Holy Orthodox churches are scandalously liberalized in America." - Pravda, April 2009

The above 16 points were provided by Dr. David Barton of Wallbuilders.com and is only a partial listing of the attacks the Obama administration has perpetrated against Christians. These attack could only succeed because of the duplicity of main-line news outlets that have hidden these truths from the populace but, mostly because of the heresy of many Christians who seeing this truth will still choose to vote Democrat in this next election.

I sincerely hope this article helps you decide to chose Jesus and the faith He taught over Barak Hussein Obama.

Laodocia Today

These things says the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God:

"I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot. 

So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth. 

Because you say, 'I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing - and you do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked - 

I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see.

As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent. Behold I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him and he with Me. To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne. 

He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.'"

Revelation 3:14-22

The last of Jesus' letters to the Churches makes it clear; He is the last word on God's creation. He not only began the 'Church age', but He alone will finish it and He is the true witness. In other words, if you want to understand how the Church is to function, look at the way it began. The Church of Laodocia then didn't listen and today it is just a ruin. Such will be the fate of all churches who do not listen to the true Head of the Church.

Jesus started the Church, and He hasn't changed. All the so-called 'hi-liturgical' forms, church growth programs, seeker friendly schemes, and new 'revelations' that are permeating the Church today are just man's attempt at running a supernatural organism in a natural organized way. Man’s wisdom will always end in fads, ideas and programs that don’t work, and worse than all – that compromise! That is why we now have the world in the church: homosexuals being ordained and married, divorce going through the roof, inviting Muslims into the church in an effort to understand their religion, etc. The Church is no longer ‘salt and light’ and its influence has dulled to the point where the name of Jesus Christ is not tolerated in public settings. The American government is saying “keep your religion inside your churches!” and the church accepts it! The Church began with a supernatural infusion of the Holy Spirit and that is the only way it can work according the divine plan.

What happens in much of the church-world today is like the tower of Babel. Man is trying to build a name for himself; his own way into the heavens. Men think the bigger it is, the better. But God is not interested in big men at the head of big organizations. He is interested in His body, over which He is the head! You can tell a lot about what is important to men by the size of the buildings they erect. We have big bank buildings, big shopping malls, and big church buildings. But, there is no record of Jesus ever erecting a big building for His Church. Instead, He declared, "My kingdom is not of this world." It is not marked by pomp and wealth. The Laodocians had fallen into this trap. They thought their wealth and worldly riches proved their spiritual success. In fact, it proved the opposite! As Jesus saw them, they were poor, blind, and naked.

Numbers are not the measure of success in the kingdom of God, redemption is.

I will greatly rejoice in the LORD, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for He has clothed me with the garments of salvation, He has covered me with the robe of righteousness.Isaiah 61:10

There are many in today's churches that are not in the Church of Jesus Christ. You don't get into His Church via membership classes, or giving of tithes, but only by having the garments of salvation and the robe of righteousness, which come from God Himself. Only the Holy Spirit can baptize us into the body of Christ (1 Corinthians 12:13) and that only follows true repentance, for Jesus taught, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand." (Matthew 4:17).

John the Baptist warned that true repentance would bring forth fruit worthy of repentance. True repentance produces a changed life. In today's church, there is little repentance, little deliverance, little healing, and even less manifestation of the Holy Spirit. This is Laodocia. The people are as miserable as the world. They are looking for hope and peace, but few find it. The reason is simple. We can't solve our problems with psychology, humanistic platitudes or Christian rituals devoid of spiritual power. Paul warned these days would come –

"For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness by denying its power. And from such people turn away!" - 2 Timothy 3:2-5

While we may think, "I'm not that bad!" If we can be found anywhere on this list, we are on the downward slippery slope that Laodocia was on. Jesus' answer is 'to be zealous and repent.'


Because He loves us, Jesus warns us to buy from Him gold refined in the fire. Today, as the dollar is about to fail and America is about to lose it’s good credit standing, many are advising to buy gold and silver, but that is not the gold Jesus is talking about here. The only way to get this gold is to take up our cross and follow Jesus. It doesn't come cheaply! The only way to get white garments is to embrace righteousness by willfully choosing to live according to Christ's standards rather than the world's standards. This is what Jesus meant when He said to "take up your cross and follow Me" (Mark 8:34). We need our eyes anointed with the healing eye salve that only Jesus gives. Our eye must be 'single' - no double-mindedness! We can't confess one thing on Sunday and live a different way the rest of the week. That means our voting must also reflect who we are!

Like David of old, we must "set no wicked thing before our eyes!" (That means at least 90% of TV and Hollywood must go). That alone will send most modern Christians into cardiac arrest! But to have 'single eyes' we must be committed to ALL Jesus and the Apostles taught not just those truths that we are comfortable with. To those who vote, that means you cannot vote for those who support abortion and still claim to followers of Christ.


The great news is however, that if we take this advice of Jesus, He will come into our lives with revitalizing life! He will bring a new level of intimacy to us that will lift us into the heavens to be seated with God Himself.

But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) And hath raised [us] up together, and made [us] sit together in heavenly [places] in Christ Jesus: - Ephesians 2:4-6

Our Foundations Under Attack

“An appeal to arms and the God of hosts is all that is left us. But we shall not fight our battle alone. There is a just God that presides over the destinies of nations. The battle sir, is not of the strong alone. Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it almighty God. I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death.”

This quote was from Patrick Henry spoken in 1775. The following year he also said, 'It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that this great nation was founded not by religionists, but by Christians; not on religion, but on the Gospel of Jesus Christ. For that reason alone, people of other faiths have been afforded freedom of worship here.'

 Did you know that 52 of the 55 signers of The Declaration of Independence were orthodox, deeply committed Christians? The other three all believed in the Bible as the divine truth, the God of scripture, and His personal intervention.

It is the same congress that formed the American Bible Society. Immediately after creating the Declaration of Independence, the Continental Congress voted to purchase and import 20,000 copies of scripture for the people of this nation.

King David wrote, “In the LORD I put my trust; How can you say to my soul, "Flee as a bird to your mountain"? For look! The wicked bend their bow, They make ready their arrow on the string, That they may shoot secretly at the upright in heart. If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?” – Psalm 11:1-3. Now we are faced with the same problem as David faced. Since 1947 Christianity has been gradually removed from public life and influence.

In 1947 the Supreme Court banished the simple prayer, “'Almighty God, we acknowledge our dependence on Thee. We beg Thy blessings upon us and our parents and our teachers and our country.
Amen.”

In 1963 they ruled that Bible reading in the public schools was unconstitutional saying “portions of the New Testament were read without explanation, they could and have been psychologically harmful to children.”

Although the Bible was quoted 94% of the time by those who wrote the Constitution, somehow in 1965 it was unconstitutional for a student to bow his head in audible prayer for his food!

And then in 1980 the Ten Commandments were outlawed in public schools and other public places. They ruled, “'If the posted copies of the Ten Commandments were to have any effect at all, it would be to induce school children to read them. And if they read them, meditated upon them, and perhaps venerated and observed them, this is not a permissible objective.” It would be terrible in their minds if students actually tried to follow the moral principles enumerated in the Ten Commandments! From their own words, it would appear that their objective is to raise a pagan generation devoid of moral guidelines.

In all this progression of evil, there are some who say, as they did to King David, "Flee as a bird to your mountain". In other words, “keep your faith inside the church walls!” Meanwhile, as the righteous are hidden from society, these ‘wicked’ continue enacting laws and regulations allowing lawlessness forces to destroy the nation God gave us. Moral abominations, such as homosexuality and abortion, are heralded by the media as enlightened growth. False religions such as Islam are allowed to substitute their laws for our national laws that originated from influence of the Bible. And their influence is allowed in the highest levels of our government further weakening our foundations. We need to remember what Patrick Henry, that fierce proponent of liberty, said; 'It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that this great nation was founded not by religionists, but by Christians; not on religion, but on the Gospel of Jesus Christ. For that reason alone, people of other faiths have been afforded freedom of worship here.’  

The media speak in glowing terms of those who ‘come out of the closet’ and declare publically their homosexual deviant lifestyle. I think it is time for Christians to ‘come out of their closets’ and declare publically that they are Christians and that this nation was founded by Christians and for Christians!

Of course, that would mean we not only live our Christian morals but we also demand the same of our elected leaders! It is obvious that Democrats don’t want Christian morals in their party, so, no Christian should vote for a Democrat!

When Hillary Clinton defends her aid, Huma Abedin, for having strong ties to the terrorist group Muslim Brotherhood thus allowing them an inside view of sensitive government plans, even allowing her aid to influence them, she and the party she represents should be voted out of office. When, Sen. John McCain and Rep. Keith Ellison attack those who want to investigate the Muslim Brotherhood’s influence in our government, they should be replaced, no matter what party they are in.

Our elected officials and the appointees they make exercise real power over us. Therefore, we should demand that they hold to a high standard of morality; like telling the truth, not padding their pockets at our expense, and that they defend our Constitution. Certainly, they should not steal from some of us to aid others for the sake of their votes. Yet this is accepted practice in Washington D.C., partly because we have no news media to alert us to what is happening. Our President claims he is making ‘shovel-ready’ jobs in building bridges and roads in the U.S. yet the contracts are being given to Chinese firms which are hiring Chinese workers. (see http://abcnews.go.com/WNT/video/us-bridges-roads-built-chinese-firms-14594513?tab=9482930?ion=1206853&playlist=14594944 ).

We are in danger of our foundations being destroyed and we are certainly surrounded by the wicked. But, God is still on the Throne. James Madison, the primary author of the Constitution of the United States, said this: 'We have staked the whole future of our new nation, not upon the power of government; far from it. We have staked the future of all our political constitutions upon the capacity of each of ourselves to govern ourselves according to the moral principles of the Ten Commandments.' We can pray and then get involved electing officials that will honor the God of the Bible.

Let us remember as King David did, “The Lord is righteous, He loves righteousness; His countenance beholds the upright.” – Psalm 11:7.
