America

A Tale of Two Funerals

By all accounts, Harold was a bright child. He grew up in America. He went to school and had a bright future ahead of him. Harold’s full life was cut short in a violent moment.

While few people had ever heard of Harold before his death, many did afterwards. And in death, something shocking happened. What was so shocking, especially when it is compared to the death of someone else recently in the news?

Harold is Harold Greene, Major General United States Army. On August 5, 2014, General Greene was killed by a Taliban terrorist.

Massie-Reistig-Klingenberg On Obama

The below summary of Barack and Michelle Obama’s 5 year reign in the White House is by far the best I’ve ever read as it squarely hits the nail on the head. And it took a black reporter writing it to make it as effective and revealing as it is. A white man’s account would be instantly criticized by the liberal media as pure racism. But, how can anyone scream “racist” when an exacting description of the Obamas is penned by a well-known journalist of color? Mychal Massie is a respected writer and talk show host in Los Angeles:

The other evening on my twitter, a person asked me why I didn’t like the Obamas. Specifically I was asked: “I have to ask, why do you hate the Obamas? It seems to be personal, and not to be policy related. You even dissed (disrespect) their Christmas family picture.”

Hitler And Obama – Democracy Destroyers

The following truism is a commonly known and embraced principle and warning: “IT IS MUCH MORE DIFFICULT TO THROW EVIL AND EVIL MEN OUT, THAN TO NOT LET THEM IN IN THE FIRST PLACE.”

Please read that again and again! It is an infallible principle of spiritual warfare both personally and nationally. It is easier to keep evil out than to kick it out once it has gotten in. You can put that in huge letters! Hear it:

“SATAN FAR PREFERS INTERNAL POSSESSION THAN

TO MERELY NEAR EXTERNAL POSITION.”

Why? First because:

“THE EVIL DEED IS DONE, AND ONCE EVIL AND EVIL MEN HAVE BEEN

ENTHRONED, IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO DETHRONE THEM.”

Secondly because:

“EVERY DEGREE OF ENTRANCE IS ALSO A DEGREE OF POSSESSION.”

Stifled Godliness – Unhindered Godlessness

The late D. James Kennedy preached these words in a sermon entitled A Godly Education, “John Dewey was the first president of the American Humanist Association and a signer of the first ‘Humanist Manifesto.’ He felt that Christianity was the principle problem that needed to be solved by our public educational system.”

“Dewey’s mentor and predecessor in the battle against Godly Education, Horace Mann, is regarded as the father of public education in America. Mann saw that education in early America was in the hands of the Christian Church, and he viewed that as absolutely deplorable. His solution was education operated and controlled by the state, which would effectively deliver children from the Christian religion.”

Shoe Bomber Sentence

Remember the guy who got on a plane with a bomb built into his shoe and tried to light it? Richard Reid tried to murder 197 people on American Airlines Flight 63 over the Atlantic Ocean.

Did you know his trial is over?
Did you know he was sentenced?
Did you see/hear any of the judge’s comments on TV or Radio?
Didn’t think so.!!!

Everyone should hear what the judge had to say.

Supreme Court: God and Bible Irrelevant

Whole Truth Help is blessed to have as a contributing Christian pastor and writer Bruce Wells. His spiritual and moral insights are thoroughly Biblical, most insightful, and deeply convicting. Bob Klingenberg’s comments are in italics.

Mark it down, June 26, 2013, will become a historic day, marking the day America takes its moral compass further south.

In two 5-4 decisions, the United States Supreme Court has ruled that the Person of God and His Scripture are no longer relevant with regard to the institution of marriage. In the place of God, the Court has ruled that the will of men determines what constitutes marriage.

The court’s decision is built on a moral foundation less stable than quicksand.

Deadly Deceptions About Christians And Elections

Just the other day, my wife was talking to a sister in Christ about the coming November 6, 2012 presidential election. As the discussion led from one critical issue to another, out of the blue the dear sister volunteered a comment with obvious frustration and dismay as she said, “Our pastor says nothing about the coming election or any of the issues involved. In fact, to listen to our pulpit, one would not even know that there is an election coming.” My wife’s heart sank and so did mine as she shared the episode with me.

Silence Is Not An Option

Mat Staver is Founder and Chairman of Liberty Counsel. Whole Truth Help welcomes his godly and much needed voice on the issues. Now his right-on article! [Bracketed comments are from Bob Klingenberg.]

When the president of Chick-fil-A is demonized for merely expressing his belief in the biblical model of marriage, it is time to speak up – or be forever silenced! Anyone who believes in Judeo-Christian values and morality should be jolted from passivity by this recent clash of cultural forces.

When mayors of large cities say Chick-fil-A is not welcome, we ought to be shocked into realizing that the time for silence is long past! Liberty Counsel has prepared a powerful new video as part of a special Action-pack named for the new reality Christians face in this increasingly hostile culture: “Silence is Not an Option.” Time is of the essence – we must mobilize and speak up!

Election Reflections And Projections

The role of Christians in this world is expressed so pointedly by Jesus Christ in Matthew 5:14-16,“You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do men light a lamp, and put it under a the peck-measure, but on the lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father Who is in Heaven.”

Drawn from Christ’s words, the passage calls on Christians to reflect God’s light, and not simply to absorb it. If you will, to shine their light where it is most needed – to cast it on and into the darkness!

The Socialization Of America

Has it ever dawned on you that historic “Communism” has always been and always will be “Atheistic” while historic “Capitalism” has always been and always will be “Theistic?” Yes, that’s right! Let that sink in for a moment.

Okay then, given that fact, why is that a fact? Very simple! The principles of “Communism” are based upon the godless philosophy of the atheist Karl Marx, while the principles of “Capitalism” are based upon the Holy Spirit-inspired Word of God. It is not a stretch to say, but it is absolutely the truth to say:

“COMMUNISM IS UNBIBLICAL AND CAPITALISM IS BIBLICAL.”
