Quote# 109521

It’s not only true that Christians and Jews are facing a new wave of marginalization and persecution in America today, it’s also true that those precious freedoms are also under assault. That’s why you see Christian bakers, photographers, videographers, florists and caterers being fined, driven out of business and prosecuted for adhering to their faith by declining to participate in same-sex weddings.

I looked it up, as Bill Maher suggested, and there are not 3,000 churches in America. There are more than 300,000. So taking anything Bill Maher says at face value is dangerous.

But there might as well be only 3,000, or even fewer, for the influence they wield in the political culture.

How many of those more than 300,000 churches are really providing the salt and light in their communities for which they were charged by their Lord and Savior? (Matthew 5:13-16)

I would say those bakers, photographers, videographers, florists and caterers have done more for that cause than most of the churches.

There’s one more thing Bill Maher should know about Christian persecution and “winning,” as he puts it.

The church saw its greatest growth and success during its most intense period of persecution – in the first century. It saw its worst failures when it tolerated and even took part in persecution.

After the death and Resurrection of Jesus, a handful of disciples, facing almost unimaginable persecution, literally turned the world upside down. All but one of Jesus’ apostles met gruesome deaths. Their followers were crucified, and their bodies were used as burning torches to light the streets of Rome. They were dragged into the Colosseum to face hungry lions for the entertainment of the city.

Persecution couldn’t stop the spread of Christianity – not the genuine form of faith of the early believers.

And it won’t stop the faith of the genuine believers today – much as Bill Maher might wish it would.

A group of western tourists who stripped naked at the peak of Mount Kinabalu last month will be prohibited from leaving Malaysia, as their act of "disrespecting the mountain" could have caused the devastating earthquake that killed at least 13 people.

The earthquake measuring 5.9 on the Richter scale struck Sabah's west coast on Friday, causing landslides on Mount Kinabalu, where at least thirteen climbers have so far been confirmed dead.

The earthquake comes a week after a group of foreigners, which included two Canadians, two Dutch and a German national, broke away from their entourage and stripped naked before taking photos at the mountain peak. Sabahans railed against the images, as they consider the mountain sacred and the act of tourists made “mountain spirits mad”.

Deputy Chief Minister of Sabah , Tan Sri Joseph Pairin Kitingan said that the tourists showed disrespect to the sacred mountain and will face appropriate action according to native laws.

"Whether other people believe this or not, it’s what we Sabahans believe. When the earthquake happened, it’s like a confirmation of our beliefs.There is almost certainly a connection. We have to take this as a reminder that local beliefs and customs are not to be disrespected."

Real Madrid removes the Christian Cross and loses every major match...

In the present sports season 2014/2015 the Spanish soccer team Real Madrid C. F. lost every major soccer competition it was contesting: Champions League (European League), Copa del Rey (the Spanish championship) and the Spanish League. In each of these there were hopes that Real Madrid would win. In fact Real Madrid was first in the Spanish League for a considerable period of the competition.

It is my opinion that this happened because of the fact that Real Madrid F.C. took off the Cross of Christ from its emblem, in order to not “offend” the Club’s Muslim sponsors, precisely in this season. Here is why I think so:

1 – Real Madrid, in the previous season, still with the Cross on its emblem, won both the Champions League and the Spanish Championship. And its main players are basically the same this season.

2 – Each of the competitions in the present season were won by no other than FC Barcelona, Real Madrid’s century-old rival. Each of the competitions that people hoped would be won by Real Madrid were won by its main soccer adversary. Actually, speaking of soccer one can think of no other rivalry more known in the whole world than the one between those two teams.


4 – And last, but not least: While Real Madrid took the Cross out of the emblem, Barcelona actually has a cross on its emblem. And it is not a common cross without significance. It’s the cross of St. George, the 4th century Christian martyr soldier.

I think it was God’s way of showing people that those who deny Him before man will be punished.

Today on “The 700 Club,” a viewer asked host Pat Robertson what she should say to a coworker who asked her, “Why did God allow my baby to die?”

He responded that it is possible that the coworker’s three-year-old child died as a result of human error at the hospital: “Are you going to blame that on God? That’s not God, that’s people who are making mistakes.”

Robertson, who once said at a faith healing that God could bring a dead baby back to life, continued that perhaps the child would have turned out to be the next Adolf Hitler, and therefore it is better that the woman’s child is in Heaven rather than becoming a murderer.

“As far as God’s concerned, he knows the end from the beginning and He sees a little baby and that little baby could grow up to be Adolf Hitler, he could grow up to be Joseph Stalin, he could grow up to be some serial killer, or he could grow up to die of a hideous disease,” Robertson said. “God sees all of that, and for that life to be terminated while he’s a baby, he’s going to be with God forever in Heaven so it isn’t a bad thing.”

“Father Valeriy” of Church of St Michael in the self-proclaimed state of Transnistria, in Eastern Europe is shown riding the man like a donkey as he protests. After the man collapses, the priest stands on top of him and raises his arms in victory. The Moldovan Orthodox Church has launched a probe. Assuming that this is not just some horrible joke, the video shows the potential for great abuse in such rituals.

When the cameraman asked how far the man must carry the large priest, Valeriy responds “To Jerusalem and to the sacred mountain of Aphone.” The man then pleaded that he cannot go on and asks to carry the priest in his arms instead: “Good people please save me! I cannot take it anymore!

News accounts say that Valeriy insists that they will continue to Jerusalem unless the devil shows itself. What is most disturbing is the appearance of a young child who is allowed to witness this scene as Father Valeriy grabs the man’s ear and then later stands on the collapsed man in victory.

A COVER-UP OF BIBLICAL PROPORTIONS…

Centuries ago, English translators perpetrated a fraud in the New Testament, and it’s been purposely hidden and covered up ever since. Your own Bible is probably included in the cover-up!

In this book, John MacArthur unveils the essential and clarifying revelation that may be keeping you from a fulfilling—and correct—relationship with God. It’s powerful. It’s controversial. And with new eyes you’ll see the riches of your salvation in a radically new way.

What does it mean to be a Christian the way Jesus defined it? MacArthur says it all boils down to one word:

SLAVE

“We have been bought with a price. We belong to Christ. We are His own possession.”

Endorsements:

"Dr. John MacArthur is never afraid to tell the truth and in this book he does just that. The Christian's great privilege is to be the slave of Christ. Dr. MacArthur makes it clear that this is one of the Bible's most succinct ways of describing our discipleship. This is a powerful exposition of Scripture, a convincing corrective to shallow Christianity, a masterful work of pastoral encouragement...a devotional classic." ?Dr. R. Albert Mohler, President, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary

"John MacArthur expertly and lucidly explains that Jesus frees us from bondage into a royal slavery that we might be His possession. Those who would be His children must, paradoxically, be willing to be His slaves." ?Dr. R.C. Sproul

"Dr. John MacArthur's teaching on 'slavery' resonates in the deepest recesses of my 'inner-man.' As an African-American pastor, I have been there. That is why the thought of someone writing about slavery as being a 'God-send' was the most ludicrous, unconscionable thing that I could have ever imagined...until I read this book. Now I see that becoming a slave is a biblical command, completely redefining the idea of freedom in Christ. I don't want to simply be a 'follower' or even just a 'servant'...but a 'slave'." ?The Rev. Dr. Dallas H. Wilson, Jr., Vicar, St. John's Episcopal Chapel, Charleston, SC

The sign is too unclear. All Christian churches must clearly denounce homosexuality as sin and boycott Boy Scout and Girl Scout. America has become immoral and nothing it has can rentain the noble nature anymore. Just good memories. Sad. American Christians must be able to keep the right to speak out the truth and live it out. That's the human rights and the significance of the entire Western civilization. America has defeated Nazis, pagan imperialists, and brutal atheists and opened up the lids of all tyrannical nations. It should not give into Sodomites this century and be subdued by them to get destroyed. America, live for the truth and freedom as you are created to be.

Quote# 109500

(This is a transcript from a YouTube video)

If I wanted America to fail, to follow not lead, to suffer not prosper, to despair not dream, I'd start with energy.

I'd cut of America's supply of cheap, abundant energy. I couldn't take it by force, so I'd make Americans feel guilty about using the energy that heats their homes, fuels their cars, runs their businesses and powers their economy.

I'd make cheap energy expensive, so that expensive energy would seem cheap. I would empower unelected bureaucrats to all but outlaw America's most abundant sources of energy; after banning its use in America, I'd make it illegal for American companies to ship it overseas.

If I wanted America to fail, I'd use their schools to teach one generation of Americans that their factories and their cars will cause a new ice age, and I'd muster a straight face so that I could teach the next generation that they're causing Global Warming. When it's cold out, I'd call it climate change instead.

I'd imply that Americas cities and factories could run on wind power and wishes, I'd teach children how to ignore the hypocrisy of condemning logging, mining and farming, while having roofs over their heads, heat in their homes and food on their tables.

I would never teach children that the free market is the only force in human history to uplift the poor, establish the middle class and create lasting prosperity. Instead, I'd demonize prosperity itself, so they will not miss, what they will never have.

If I wanted America to fail, I would create countless new regulations and seldom cancel old ones. They would be so complicated that only bureaucrats, lawyers and lobbyists could understand them, that way small businesses with big ideas wouldn't stand a chance, and I would never had to worry about another Thomas Edison, Henry Ford or Steve Jobs.

I would ridicule less flat earthers; those who urge them to lower energy costs by increasing supply, and when the evangelists of common sense try to remind people about the laws of supply and demand, I'd enlist the sympathetic media to drown them out.

If I wanted America to fail, I'd empower unaccountable bureaucracy seeded in a distant capital to bully Americans out of their dreams and their property rights. I'd send federal agents to raid guitar factories for using the wrong kind of wood, I'd force homeowners to tear down their own homes, Built on their own land, and make it almost impossible to farm, miners to mine, loggers to log and builders to built.

Because I don't believe in free markets, I'd invent false ones; I'd devise fictitious products like "Carbon Credits" and trade them in imaginary markets. I'd convince people that this would "Create Jobs" and be "Good for the Economy"

If I wanted America to fail, for every concern I'd invent a Crisis, and for every crisis I'd invent the cause, like shutting down entire industries and killing tens of thousands of jobs, in the name of saving Spotted Owls, and when everyone learned the stunning irony, that the owls where victims of their larger cousins and not people, it would already be decades to late.

If I wanted America to stop commerce than to start it, easier to kill jobs then create them, more fashionable to resent success then to seek it. When industries seek to create jobs I'd file lawsuits to stop them and make taxpayers pay-for my lawyers.

If I wanted America to fail, I'd would transform the Environmental Agenda from a document of conversation to an economic suicide pact. I would concede entire industries to our economic rivals by imposing regulations that cost trillions. I would celebrate those who preach environmental austerity in public while indulging a lavish lifestyle in private. I'd convince Americans that Europe has it right-and that America has it wrong.

If I wanted America to fail, I would prey on the goodness and the decency of ordinary Americans. I would only need to convince them that all of this was for the greater good.

If I wanted America to fail, I... I suppose I wouldn't change a thing.

Let none be deceived; the basic appeal of the modern dance, as admitted even by its proponents, has its foundation in human passion, Obviously, not every person who engages in dancing ends up a prostitute or fornicator, yet many who have come to immoral ends began their journey by way of the dance.

Let none be deceived, the fruit of the modern dance has never increased purity and spirituality, but the destruction of all that relates to human happiness and eternal salvation.

Then you have misunderstood probability too. Perhaps a knowledgeable non-Christian on here would explain about probability. Me doing it would run the risk of look like it being "sophistry and playing with words." If anyone does explain it, then perhaps the following will help.

For this to be a good argument (that God raised Jesus from the dead), the probability of it being true needs to be higher than the probability of it not being true, i.e. >50%. On occasions people here have said that there are infinite number of possible other explanations for what is recorded in the NT (the empty tomb, etc.). That may be the case, but it is irrelevant. If the probability of those individual other explanations total less than 50%, it means that the probability of God having raised Jesus from the dead is greater than 50%. The percentages I quoted as examples, i.e. 12.5%, 6.25%, 3.125% and so on were part of a sequence where, though infinitely long, only total 25%, thus showing that it is possible to have an infinite number of other possible explanations, yet still have a total of less than 50%.

(in response to a report that accuses Jim Bob & Michelle of lying during their June 3 interview)

The Duggars have never lied once in their lives so its absurd to think they would now. Their whole existence is about being perfect and only lesser ordinary people stoop to not telling the truth. The. Duggars didn’t get to be the most loved and looked up to family by being dishonest. Those who know enough to side hug surely know how not to lie or tell so called falsehoods ever. If they ate ten pickles they would say ten, not nine and certainly not eleven. You can trust the Duggars to tell the truth because they love the truth about everything. If they see a sin in others they have to point it out because they are above sin in their lives. They have earned the right to judge.

Just another small little signpost along the way.

Masculinity and femininity are not ubiquitous. They are finite.

U.S. males(not men) are becoming more and more feminized, as U.S. females demand the pretense of masculinity.

He makes for a lousy woman, as all males do. And she makes a lousy man, as all women do.

The more you see of feminism and the behavior it engenders, the more history's patriarchy makes sense. Women are destructive. And left unchecked, they'll bring down their own house and all those around them.

Mainstream "science facts" :

Hydrogen gravitationally collapses itself into a star

We found the Higgs, this room full of blue reporters surrounding this red guy is how it works

the mean free path of a photon exiting the core of the sun is thousands of years (according to the math)but supernovas take a few months from onset to completion (according to the math)...my favorite!

Gravity from a planet helps moons form (according to the math)...until it rips them apart (according to the math) or in the instance of the asteroid belt prevents a planet from forming...except a dwarf planet in the middle of it...

Black holes....if you get enough of something in one spot it dissappears...

collisionless shocks...

Quote# 109482

All last week, Glenn Beck promised that he would make a major announcement on Monday morning about some new campaign, saying "I believe my entire life has led to this point."

This morning, Beck made that announcement but, in typical Beck fashion, he first spent nearly an hour and a half delivering a long-winded and self-aggrandizing monologue full of references to Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Mahatma Gandhi, and Martin Luther King and passages of Scripture as he railed about how America has gone completely off the rails, fuming that this nation only cares about things like Caitlyn Jenner, abortion rights, and transableism at a time when Christians are being slaughtered by ISIS in the Middle East.

"We are no longer a country that I recognize," he said. "We are no longer a people that I recognize. We are no longer a nation in which I care to call myself a member of. We've become a place where our citizenship is more of an indictment than an honor ... We are a country that has not only lost its way, but history will show that we have lost our ever-loving minds."

Eventually, Beck finally got around to announcing a new "Never Again Is Now" campaign to raise awareness of the crisis in the Middle East and a relief effort organized by his Mercury One charity to provide supplies and aid to those displaced and threatened by ISIS.

But there is more to the effort than simply providing relief to the victims of ISIS, as Beck is personally launching a speaking tour of churches in order to wake up Americans to the threat posed by things like gay marriage and to train them to carry out boycotts, civil disobedience, and nonviolent resistance ... and just like Martin Luther King, Beck will be kicking this effort off in Birmingham, Alabama.

"If you think there is trouble now, what happens when the Supreme Court decides to say that homosexual marriage is the law of the land?" Beck asked. "Will this administration then force our churches to comply? Will you be forced to violate your own faith? We must together wake the most powerful force on earth: the people of God."

"I'm going to begin," he continued, "where Martin Luther King began. On 8/28, I'm going to be in Birmingham, Alabama in a church just down the street from where Martin Luther King began his historic stand against Bull Connor ... We are going to begin to gather like-minded people and we are going to begin to train ourselves for non-violent resistance and civil disobedience. We're going to begin to train ourselves for boycotts and sit-ins. We're going to do all of the things that we thought were too radical or too hippy-like to do because we have to understand that we are now David and Goliath has all of the power. But we all know how that story ends."

On Friday, Ann Coulter stopped by “The Eric Metaxas Show” to promote her new anti-immigrant book, “Adios, America! The Left's Plan to Turn Our Country into a Third World Hellhole.” Coulter blamed Mitt Romney’s 2012 election defeat on immigration, lamenting that there aren’t enough white voters in the U.S. and urging the former governor to make a third presidential bid to save America.

If the country doesn’t crack down on immigration, Coulter warned, the U.S. is going to transform into Uganda and will face gender segregation and mass sexual violence against women and children.

“Reagan got, I think it was 54 percent of the white vote, Romney got 59 percent of the white vote; the country in 1980 was about 90 percent white, now it’s about 62 percent white though still only 72 who can vote,” Coulter said. “If something drastic isn’t done right away, it is going to be George McGovern’s America, it is going to be La Raza’s America, it is going to be Uganda, basically. And get used to having segregated buses and subways, as they have in India and Mexico, because of the way women are treated and sexually abused there; get used to your little girls being raped and being pregnant; get used to not being able to go to your national parks because they are being burnt down, pot farms are being grown there, pesticides dumped all over.”

Coulter insisted that she was not using hyperbole, predicting that “if this book doesn’t work and change our immigration policy, that’s it, time to build the bunker and hire the cheap maids.”

I was some 15 blocks from Times Square headed to the median strip at 45th and Broadway when a man passed me by and said, “Welcome Back Brother!”

Then people started greeting me with, “Love your Videos!”

I knew I was going to have a great outing.

When I got to Times Square a traffic cop was standing on the median strip where I stand. I engaged him in conversation trying to persuade him to move. He refused to move.

People were attracted to me talking to the cop with my Cross trying to persuade him to move and started taking all kinds of pictures of us and even seeing if we would pose together. This softened the cop and finally he agreed to move!

Lots of young kids were out “on tour” and stood transfixed watching me hold high the Holy Cross of Christ. Then an evangelical christian walked up to me with an “attitude.”

He challenged me with, “Who do you represent?” I boldly replied, “I represent the Lord Jesus Christ.”

He started smirking and shaking his head no when I brought the interchange quickly to an end by saying to him, “Do you have to go to the bathroom?” He looked stunned. I turned my back to him and the mocker was dumbfounded.

No sooner did I turn around than a Jewish young man in his early thirties was standing right in front of me and started kissing the Cross. Now *I* was stunned.

He started speaking in Russian to me and said he knew me from my Videos. He said he got baptized in the Orthodox Church after coming out of the enslavement and oppression of Judaism.

Then an Israeli woman came up to me and greeted me in Hebrew. Then she said, “Why are you holding the Cross being a Jew? You can never change being a Jew!”

I answered, “After my baptism I became a new creation in Christ preparing me to live with Him forever.” This stumped her and she walked away.

The entire outing was a HUGE success with many thanking me and saying, “God Bless You!”

And tons of people complimented me on my Videos including a professor who lectures across the country.

I’m headed to Wall Street now. Please pray for me.

Angry, audacious, asinine atheists profess loudly to all who will listen - even to those who won't - that God does not exist. They are especially overbearing and offensive even obnoxious during the Christmas season. Atheists also do not believe in Santa Clause, the Tooth Fairy, Easter Bunny, and Peter Pan but they do not try to convince others of their non-existence! However, I don't believe in atheists and neither does God! The Bible clearly teaches that God loves the world and wants everyone to place faith in Him to guarantee forgiveness of sins and a place in Heaven. Atheists don't exist because God will not permit it!

[From an article titled "Muslim Go BOOM!"]

"Moderate Muslim" is a contradiction in terms. It is intrinsically oxymoronic. Whereas "moderate" (read: liberal) "Christians," such as those belonging to the PCUSA, embrace certain apostasies that run directly counter to the biblical teachings of Christianity (which is the true "religion of peace"), "moderate Muslims," likewise, embrace an apostate version of Islam that runs directly counter to the clear teachings of the Quran.

Whereas devout followers of Jesus Christ, who is God incarnate, are characteristically peaceful; devout followers of that child-raping, woman-beheading "prophet" Muhammad, who was demon incarnate, are characteristically violent.

[...]

Which brings us to ISIS - Head-chopping, man-sodomizing, child-torturing, Jew-killing, Christian-sawing, woman-enslaving ISIS. The Islamic State is not the exception to the rule; the Islamic state is the rule. ISIS is Islam and Islam is ISIS.

[...]

While there are exceptions, the left is overwhelmingly anti-Semitic, anti-Christian and pro-Muslim. Liberals and Islamists, such as those belonging to the American-Islamic terrorist group CAIR, as well as Obama's pals in the Muslim Brotherhood, have forged a bizarre and notably incongruous sociopolitical partnership I call the "Islamo-'progressive' axis of evil." The only explanation for this, as far as I can tell, is best illustrated by the maxim: "The enemy of my enemy is my friend."

The common enemy to both the Muslim and the "progressive" is truth.

The common enemy is Christ.

The left is hopelessly schizoid on the issue of sexuality: they celebrate changes in gender, yet want to criminalize those who would help others make changes in sexual orientation.

This is illustrated by two stories currently in the news. One is, of course, the celebrated gender "change" in Bruce Jenner, who now claims to be a woman even though he is still a man in every single solitary cell of his body, and will be until the day he dies.

The second story involves a small, cash-poor non-profit organization dedicated to helping people change their sexual orientation from gay to straight.

The group is JONAH, which stands for "Jews Offering New Alternatives for Healing." They have been dragged into court by the uber-rich Southern Poverty Law Center and charged with consumer fraud.

[...]

So on one hand, the left breathlessly celebrates a highly publicized change in gender. But on the other, they want to criminalize any effort to effect a change in sexual orientation.

This is grossly hypocritical at best and evil at worst.

[...]

The left celebrates that kind of change, the kind of change that takes a man from the cover of a Wheaties box to the cover of Vanity Fair. This despite the fact that such a change is obviously artificial and contrived, requiring no less than 10 facial surgeries to soften and feminize the man's face.

So for the left, a phony change from male to female is a positive breakthrough of historic proportions, but a change from gay to straight is a dastardly thing that must be squashed like a tiny little bug. The left has its own catalogue of what it considers abominations, and reparative therapy is right at the top of the list.
