I will not be continuing my Creationism posts today. I do not plan to get to them until after the general election in November.

I do plan to discuss Iraq before the election. I am sorry for the change in plans. Plans, in reality, often are altered for one reason or another. “The best laid plans … often go astray.” Thank you for your understanding and patience.

How many unborn toddlers were murdered today because of the humanistic, paganish, barbaric decisions of the United States Supreme Court?

“Anonymous said

Bravo and Amen! Everyone with a conscience should Google “Obama Supports Public Depravity.” (This occurred in Pelosi’s district!) Also Yahoo “God to Same-Sexers: Hurry Up” and “Dangerous Radicals of the Religious Right.” And here’s a new pro-life slogan: “Unborn children should have the same right to be born alive that abortionists had!”

Thank you! I did Google all three and they can all be retrieved with Google. In fact, the “Dangerous Radicals of the Religious Right” is posted tonight toward the end of the post. It is very good. I also like the slogan. Here is another such slogan that I like: “The unborn have rights and lefts and minds and bodies and souls.”

Wake-up America!!! Who ultimately is in control—GOD or man? Who determines right and wrong—GOD or man? Who controls the weather—GOD or man? Who determines righteousness and sin—GOD or man? Who controls our economy—GOD or man? Who defines good and evil—GOD or man? Who controls what happens to the United States of America—GOD or man?

As a Christian, I believe that there are three crucial issues in this Presidential election. The second most crucial issue in the campaign deals with the continual moral degradation of our society through sexual immorality which not only has been destroying individuals but also the family—GOD’S chosen instrument for procreation and the developmental growth of the children of society. In the 2008 election, that continued moral degradation is centered on homosexuality and allowing homosexuals to marry.

On my last post, I posted this segment from Romans chapter 1 written by the apostle Paul:

“I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. For in the gospel a righteousness from God is revealed, a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: ‘The righteous will live by faith.’

The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness, since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.

For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles.

Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.

Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed
indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.

Furthermore, since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done. They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; they are senseless, faithless, heartless, ruthless. Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.” Romans 1: 16-32 (NIV)

This section alone should be sufficient for any Christian to know that HOMOSEXUAL behavior is a SIN. Paul is very clear and precise. The only way he could be more precise is to give the actual description of a HOMOSEXUAL act. I’m certain that even with such a description some would try to deny that he is referring to HOMOSEXUALITY. Paul states that GOD gave SINFUL men up to shameful LUSTS. That even women gave up natural relations for unnatural. Then he continues that in the same way men abandoned natural relations with women for unnatural relations with men. They did so because they were inflamed with LUST. The acts committed by men with men were and are INDECENT. The acts were and are a PERVERSION regardless of the protests of politically correct people today.

Christians today are only repeating what Paul wrote through the guidance of the HOLY SPIRIT. A HOMOSEXUAL act is an act of PERVERSION! The penalty for such SIN in the Old Testament was DEATH. The penalty for unrepentant SIN including HOMOSEXUAL behavior was, is now, and always will be spiritual DEATH. That is the only Biblical conclusion that is possible.

Paul continues that GOD gave up these SINNERS to a DEPRAVED mind. These same SINNERS are filled with every manner of WICKEDNESS, EVIL, GREED, and DEPRAVITY. Then Paul lists seventeen additional SINS that flow from the same DEPRAVED mind that disregards GOD’S standards including being filled with murder, heartless, and GOD-haters. (Who is trying to remove GOD from the public arena = GOD-haters!) The final condemnation is that these individuals know that they are violating GOD’S decrees and yet continue to do so and continue to approve of the SINFUL behavior of others who do the same. Approving the SINFUL behavior of HOMOSEXUAL acts is itself a SIN.

Remembering the above quote from Romans particularly this portion, “Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion. [Romans 1: 26b-27 (NIV)], I am posting a short article from Will Hall of the Baptist Press which I got off of the Internet. The article:

“Editorial: Dobson is right, Obama distorts the Bible & presents a ‘confused theology’
By Will Hall
Posted on June 24, 2008

Nashville, Tennessee (BP)—In his radio show June 24, James Dobson examined Democrat presidential contender Barack Obama’s use of Scripture and concluded Obama ‘deliberately’ distorts the Bible ‘to fit his own worldview—his own confused theology.’

Dobson was commenting on a speech Obama gave in 2006 to liberals and moderates gathered for ‘A Call for Renewal’ organized by former Marxist Jim Wallis’ Sojourner organization:
‘Which passages of Scripture should guide our public policy? Should we go with Leviticus, which suggests slavery is OK and that eating shellfish is abomination? How about Deuteronomy, which suggests stoning your child if he strays from the faith? Or should we just stick to the Sermon on the Mount—a passage that is so radical that it’s doubtful that our own Defense Department would survive its application?’

Largely, the secular press and Obama’s handlers have responded by treating Dobson’s remarks as controversial, rather than Obama’s. Others dismissed Dobson’s criticisms because Obama delivered the speech in 2006. Unfortunately, both responses badly minimize the seriousness of Obama’s error.

It’s not that Obama simply misunderstands the Bible. His questions about Leviticus and Deuteronomy aren’t merely rhetorical, but were posed to create doubts about the sufficiency of Scripture.Without doubt, the Old Testament is relevant today and teaches us moral truths and principles God used to shape Israel to be His nation. However, it is disingenuous at best for Obama to suggest the dietary laws God delivered specifically to Israel somehow are in play today; nor is it right to imply there is serious discussion on any scale that such laws apply to the New Testament church (Peter’s experience in Acts 10: 9-16 put this issue to rest).

The same is true about Obama’s suggestions regarding the stoning of a child and slavery. For the record:

—1 Timothy 1: 8-11 condemns slave traders, and the book of Philemon is Paul’s passionate appeal to secure the freedom of the runaway slave Onesimus.

The story of the prodigal son (Luke 15: 11-32) gives insights about the New Testament teaching about how to deal with children who stray from the faith.

Moreover, it’s not that Obama erred this one time. As it turns out, he has repeated his 2006 offense.

In March 2008, during a Q&A at a campaign event in Nelsonville, Ohio, Obama justified his support of legal recognition of same-sex unions by misappropriating Matthew 5-7 and disparaging Romans 1.

‘I don’t think it [a same-sex union] should be called marriage, but I think that it is a legal right that they should have that is recognized by the state,’ Obama said. ‘If people find that controversial, then I would just refer them to the Sermon on the Mount, which I think is, in my mind, for my faith, more central than an obscure passage in Romans.’
Never mind that the Sermon on the Mount does not contradict biblical teaching about marriage. In fact, in that Bible passage Jesus actually strengthens His instructions regarding marriage as a union between a man and a woman.

However, again, Obama disrespected a portion of the Word of God simply because it does not fit his worldview. The text he dismissed, Romans 1: 24-32 states that homosexuality is sin (along with greed, envy, murder, strife, deceit, etc.) and condemns people who ‘give hearty approval to those who practice’ such things. To say the least, it’s not very reassuring that someone who describes himself as a person of faith would reject God’s warning about those who facilitate others’ sin.

During his radio show, Dobson delved into the political facets of Obama’s religious beliefs—pointing out Obama’s view that ‘democracy demands that the religiously motivated translate their concerns into universal, rather than religion-specific, values.’ There are many biblical examples that contradict Obama’s position (see Daniel 3: 16-18 and Acts 5: 29 for instance), but Dobson chose to call it a ‘fruitcake interpretation of the Constitution.’

My concern and motivation, however, are solely spiritual, not political.

I do not mean to downplay what could be serious constitutional and other public policy concerns. When Christians are given the opportunity to vote their values, they should consider the social and political impact of a candidate’s biblical views as well as how personal beliefs affect his or her spiritual fitness to lead. However, Obama’s misappropriation of Scripture to fit his political perspective is more grave than its implications for a presidential election. Indeed, the potential consequences of his scriptural misapplications far exceed the realm of politics—the repercussions truly could be biblical in proportion.--30--

“Dangerous Radicals of the Religious right!

[quotes are from Vital Quotations by Emerson West]

01) ROBERT E. LEE: ‘In all my perplexities and distresses, the Bible has never failed to give me light and strength.’ (p. 21)

02) DANIEL WEBSTER: ‘If we abide by the principles taught in the Bible, our country will go on prospering and to prosper.’ (p. 21)

03) JOHN QUINCY ADAMS: ‘I have made it a practice for several years to read the Bible through in the course of every year.’ (p. 22)

06) HORACE GREELEY: ‘It is impossible to mentally or socially enslave a Bible-reading people.’ (p. 23)

07) THOMAS JEFFERSON: ‘I hold the precepts of Jesus as delivered by himself to be the most pure, benevolent, and sublime which have ever been preached to man. I adhere to the principles of the first age; and consider all subsequent innovations as corruptions of this religion, having no foundation in what came from him.’ (p. 45)

08) THOMAS JEFFERSON: ‘Had the doctrines of Jesus been preached always as pure as they came from his lips, the whole civilized world would by now have become Christian.’ (p. 47)

09) BENJAMIN FRANKLIN: ‘As to Jesus of Nazareth, my opinion of whom you particularly desire, I think the system of morals and his religion, as he left them to us, is the best the world ever saw, or is likely to see.’ (p.49)

10) WOODROW WILSON: ‘The sum of the whole matter is this—that our civilization cannot survive materially unless it be redeemed spiritually. It can only be saved by becoming permeated with the spirit of Christ and being made free and happy by practices which spring out of that spirit.’ (p. 143)

11) PATRICK HENRY: ‘There is a just God who presides over the destiny of nations.’ (p. 145)

Compare this comment with what is heard every day on TV and in the movies and you have some small idea of how far we have fallen as a nation! How can we expect GOD to continue to bless such a depraved nation! So depraved that we MURDER over 3,000 unborn babies every day of the year! AND SOME DECLARE IT TO BE A “RIGHT”! WAKE-UP AMERICA! WAKE-UP CHRISTIANS!—my addition)

15) BENJAMIN FRANKLIN: ‘Here is my creed. I believe in one God, the Creator of the universe. That he governs it by his Providence. That he ought to be worshiped.’ (p. 301)

16) CALVIN COOLIDGE: ‘The strength of a country is the strength of its religious convictions.’ (p. 305)

17) GEORGE WASHINGTON: ‘The perpetuity of this nation depends upon the religious education of the young.’ (p. 306)

Prior to our increasingly ‘Hell-Bound and Happy’ era, America’s greatest leaders were part of the (gulp) Religious Right! Today we have forgotten God’s threat (to abort America) in Psalm 50: 22—‘Now consider this, ye that forget God, lest I tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver.’”

I’m going to quote a larger section of that Psalm:

“But to the wicked, God says: ‘What right have you to recite my laws or take my covenant on your lips? You hate my instruction and cast my words behind you. When you see a thief, you join with him; you throw in your lot with adulterers. You use your mouth for evil and harness your mouth to deceit. (Does that sound like Barack Hussein Obama? I will explain in a latter article why I am now going to use his middle name—my addition.) You speak continually against your brother and slander your own mother’s son. These things you have done and I kept silent; you thought I was altogether like you. But I will rebuke you and accuse you to your face. Consider this, you who forget God, or I will tear you to pieces, with none to rescue….’” Psalm 50: 16-22 (NIV)

“Thus, in 1789 President Washington issued ‘The First Thanksgiving Proclamation of the United States,’ which he began with these words, ‘Whereas, it is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits and humbly implore His protection and favor ….’”

“But the forces of unbelief that have moved in to control American life, would remove every influence of God among us. We are reminded of the statement by William Penn that, ‘If we are not governed by God, we will be ruled by tyrants.’”

“Rather He pronounced a blessing on ‘the nation whose God is the Lord.’ (Psalm 33: 12)

“He promised that his eye would be ‘upon those who fear him.’” (Psalm 33: 18)

“He has said, ‘Righteousness exalts a nation; but sin is a reproach (or a disgrace) to any people.’” (Proverbs 14: 34)

“‘Not until I went into the churches of America and heard her pulpits aflame with righteousness did I understand the secret of her genius and power.’”

“Without the influence of Divine Providence, believers will be disenfranchised and America will fall as other great societies in the past have done, from within.”

“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 (NIV)
