Please read the last three posts in order first.

The U.S. Supreme Court has been judicially active over the last forty five years. Some of their decisions have been good and some of them have been monstrously bad. In my opinion, the decision to allow the murder of unborn babies has been monstrously bad. Many of the decisions have been reached in the name of civil rights. It seems that often the decisions have not been based upon the context of the U.S. Constitution. Rather, the justices first reach their decision based upon their own opinions of right and wrong and then try to justify that opinion based upon the provisions of the Constitution. The result, they are rewriting the Constitution by judicial fiat.

The nine members of the Supreme Court are appointed by the President when a vacancy occurs with the advise and consent of the U.S. Senate. Although the Constitution describes their term of office as a term based upon "good behavior", the actual practice in recent years has been until they retire or die. A justice has not recently been removed from office by means of impeachment and conviction.

The consequence has been that this unelected final decision maker of what is unconstitutional and what is not has been insulated from the democratic practice of following the will of the people or the provisions of the Constitution. Their decisions have a profound influence on the moral fabric of the country. Again, those nine people are deciding right from wrong. What oligarchic power!

Because of this misuse and abuse of their position, there may be no more important event in the final years of the Bush Administration than the appointment of the new Supreme Court member. The powers of evil who support the murder of unborn babies have already declared that they are opposed to the nominee. I believe that it is important for Christians if they are opposed to the immoral direction the court and others have been taking us, to continually pray for a conclusion that will be supportive of GOD based values and concepts.

It is also important for us as Christians to have our voices heard politically. When CHRIST walked this earth, HE prayed. HE also taught and preached the Word of GOD and GOD'S will for man. We need to do the same. Our silence will be taken as support for the growing immorality of the last forty five years. Do your part to support the GOD given values of moral purity or Satan will continue to push his libertine philosophy of self without GOD throughout the United States.

GOD allows people to sin but he expects and wants Christians to be a bastion of holy purity. We are victorious through CHRIST! But, how many additional souls are lost because we shirk our Christian obligations to teach, support, and live the holy life expected of all people. "Do not be deceived; GOD cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. The one who sows to please his sinful nature, from that nature will reap destruction; the one who sows to please the SPIRIT, from the SPIRIT will reap eternal life." Galatians 6: 7-8.
