The Coming Age of Austerity By Patrick J. Buchanan Tuesday - November 6, 2012 "Are the good times really over for good?" asked Merle Haggard in his 1982 lament. Then, the good times weren't over. In fact, they were coming back, with the Reagan recovery, the renewal of the American spirit and the end of a Cold War that had consumed so much of our lives. Yet whoever wins today, it is hard to be sanguine about the future. The demographic and economic realities do not permit it. Consider. Between 1946 and 1964, 79 million babies were born -- the largest, best-educated and most successful generation in our history. Bill Clinton and George W. Bush, both born in 1946…

I paused in prayer this morning at the throne of grace with my Savior’s arms about my shoulders; the following verse came to me: Isaiah 41:10 Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. Peace came over me as I continued in prayer with praise, thanks, and petitions. Then in my daily devotional reading, I read: Romans 5. Romans 5:1 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: Romans 5:2 By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the gl…

November 5 Morning “No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper.” - Isa_54:17 This day is notable in English history for two great deliverances wrought by God for us. On this day the plot of the Papists to destroy our Houses of Parliament was discovered, 1605. “While for our princes they prepare In caverns deep a burning snare, He shot from heaven a piercing ray, And the dark treachery brought to day.” And secondly-to-day is the anniversary of the landing of King William III, at Torbay, by which the hope of Popish ascendancy was quashed, and religious liberty was secured, 1688. This day ought to be celebrated, not by the saturnalia of striplings, bu…

Acts 22:27 Then the chief captain came, and said unto him, Tell me, art thou a Roman? He said, Yea. There is no doubt that Paul, a Christian, was foremost a citizen of heaven? Yet, when pressed upon by the people of the nation, he had no reservation declaring he was also a citizen of the world. He had no shame for using the ungodly of this world to gain justice within it. Acts 25:11 For if I be an offender, or have committed any thing worthy of death, I refuse not to die: but if there be none of these things whereof these accuse me, no man may deliver me unto them. I appeal unto Caesar. When should we as Christians participate in and make use of the established gove…

If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. (2 Chron. 7:14) “If My People…” The most unpredictable word in this verse is the word “if”. The Lord allows us to decide. He does not impose, nor force Himself upon anyone. The plea is to our conscience and our character; “if” my people, the select group that are called by His name. This includes the adopted, as well as the natural born. If God’s people would hearken unto Him, what a glorious place this world would be, a virtual Heaven on earth. Tha…

WHOOPIE! Halloween is back! The only day of the year that we can teach the kids that witches are amusing! And we get to celebrate death and gore, and maiming of human beings! Wow. Everyone gets to dress up like devils, and ghosts, and zombies, and run the streets begging for candy. It is the only day we can hang a scarecrow from a tree in our yards, and not go to jail for it. Isn't it great that we get to scare the little ones? I can't wait until they grow a little and they can scare someone else! Haaa! Saw a skeleton dancing in the air, he was hung by the neck until dead...uh, well he was dancing away when the wind blew, cool huh? What a wonderful holiday…

A WORD ABOUT THE ELECTIONS By Chuck Baldwin November 1, 2012 NewsWithViews.com With the 2012 Presidential election just a few days away, it is almost superfluous for me to engage in any kind of in depth discussion, as most people cannot, for the life of them, get past the political theater that is currently crescendoing to a climax. Therefore, I will simply provide readers with a few passing thoughts regarding the elections next week. I think Mitt Romney will somewhat comfortably win the Presidential election. This will cause "conservatives," Christians, and most Republicans to go into a state of deep hibernation, which will allow Romney to wreak havoc upon the Co…

JUSTIFYING THE LESSER OF TWO EVILS IS AN ABOMINATION by Tona Monroe October 30, 2012 NewsWithViews.com Many evangelicals are self-professing conservatives who routinely vote Republican. Sure, the Republican Party has the rich old white guys with deep pockets who finance campaigns, but without evangelical voters, the Republican Party would go the way of the Whigs. Unfortunately, many evangelicals compromise and vote for the Republican regardless of how bad the nominee is. The Bible says these compromising conservative evangelicals are an abomination to the Lord. “He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to t…

David Cloud On Target? 1 2

Is David Cloud on target in his comments on Obama? Note: David Cloud has given no favorable comments on Mitt Romney that I know of, he has identified Mormonism as a cult and rightfully so. He has exposed the ecumenical-evangelicals crowd for saying Mormonism is a Christian religion.

Have any of you ever heard this hymn? The chorus surely is 100% right! What You Are If you have named the name of Jesus, If you're known as one of His; Remember that the world is watching To see how your vict'ry is. Walk worthy of you holy calling, Bring praise to His blessed name, Lest He, thro' you should be dishonored, And your deeds should bring Him shame. Your life may be a life of vict'ry, If yielded to Him alone; Your work the Master said shall prove you, And by it you shall be known. Chorus: What you are speaks so loud that the world can't hear what you say; They're looking at your walk, not list'ning to your talk, They're judging from your …

GOP Senate Candidate: 'God Intended' Pregnancies From Rape Indiana Republican Senate candidate Richard Mourdock said pregnancies resulting from rape are part of God's plan, tearfully explaining that he only supports abortions when a mother's life is in danger. "I think even when life begins in that horrible situation of rape, that it is something that God intended to happen," Mourdock said during Tuesday's Senate debate, choking up. Mourdock's opponent, Democratic Rep. Joe Donnelly, opposes abortion except in cases of rape and incest. After the debate, Mourdock further explained his comment. "Are you trying to suggest somehow that God preordained rape, no I don't thi…

I just saw a news article on Yahoo! talking about three of the 3rd Party Candidates holding a debate. It said it was happening tonight. I'm gonna see if I can find it on youtube, and post a link if I can. Might be interesting to hear what the other presidential candidates have to say, even if it's a longshot of them winning.

I suppose its in all Walmart's, the greeter has been moved inside. There's many stories going around, but this is the best one I've heard, & I believe its the right one. Up in Northwest Arkansas where the headquarters for this outfit is located, sometime back on of the big shots wife's was walking out of a Walmart store, & the greeter wanted to check her bags. It seems she is an untouchable, & got bent all out of shape, making accusations, of all things a lowly greeter at the bottom of the pay scale having the nerve to question her, who is the wife of a man who is on the high end of Walmart's headquarters staff. So the greeter no longer checks anyone bag t…

Then there are our loved ones and church members who are also suffering greatly, either they or a loved one has a serious medical condition.

I noticed the times that I went to the IFB church that they do not partake of communion (or as Mormon's call it Sacrament). Do they not partake of it? If they do when do they do it because I never saw it. In the Mormon church it's one of the first things that are done at the beginning of the services on Sunday. Just curious.

How Is Apathy Defined, Then And Now? 1 2
by Guest 1Timothy115- 15 replies
- 1.1k views
Apathy! Notice how the absence of Christian is seen in this new modern definition as compared to 1828? Why do you think Christianity has left the definition of apathy? Who and why would some being want Christians to not find apathy near them in the dictionary? I wonder if societal apathy is preceded by spiritual apathy? It seems Christians are missing everywhere you go these days.

Jets' Tebow gets trademark on 'Tebowing' LORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) -- Dropping to a knee like Tim Tebow might cost you now. The New York Jets backup quarterback has officially trademarked ''Tebowing,'' the move in which he goes down on one knee and holds a clenched fist against his forehead while praying during games. After Tebow led the Denver Broncos to a handful of fourth-quarter comeback victories last season, ''Tebowing'' swept the country - with actor Robert Downey Jr. even doing it at the Oscars. Newsday first reported that the trademark was approved last week after paperwork was filed in April. Tebow says Friday he wasn't aware the trademark was official yet. Th…

As far as I remember, if a divorced man was a Christian, before coming to Christ or after, could not be a deacon, teacher, or preacher. Has this changed? and is it OK for divorce Preachers give marriage counseling classes to a family in need, of counseling. -

Haha, sounds like you’re doing all the hard work! If only you were a pastor, right? Then you could just preach, shake hands, and have all the free food show up. But for now, it looks like your wife is keeping you busy with all that car washing and laundry folding! 😄 -

I understand that. The real issue for me would be if someone added something to the Bible and claimed it as part of the Word of God. Anything else is just there for helps. For the record, I won't be buying a Trump Bible either. -

The church we're members of didn't have evening service, rather they had several small groups. Since the Wuhan Flu the church has stopped all small groups. On most Sunday evenings they have choir practice for a choir we NEVER use. It's been a royal mess since 2020.
