I wanted to put this up here. Your good Christians. You didn't want this to happen of course. We have a flood of porn. Television filled with sin among other things. Just remember God hands people over to a reprobate mind. The floodgates are open now. I assume they are going to move to make this very acceptable to people I don't know. This could get really rough on a lot of people including the young people. What's good is we still have freedom of speech and we can preach the GOOD NEWS all day day long. The Gospel saves no other way. Time to get to work.

All the online news sources are reporting that (in my words) an unidentified white male exercised his "freedom of choice" to abort mass-murderer George Tiller. What is really offensive is that this monster was executed while serving as an usher at "church", which would obviously be one of those pseudo churches that are really nothing more than satan worshipping heretic posing as Christians. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,523581,00.html Arrest Made in Shooting Death of Abortion Doctor at Church, Source Says WICHITA, Kan. ? A Wichita city official says a suspect is in custody in the shooting death of late-term abortion provider George Tiller. The city official s…

Finally he threw his hat in the ring...I'm finally interested in the Presidential races and finally have someone to vote for. The only problem is, PA is one of the last voters in the primaries, so I can only hope everybody else votes for him so that I have a chance to cast mine, too. Last time, McCain already had the nomination before it was our turn to vote. It totally stunk.

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,459927,00.html Is this fear-mongering or is this just stating the facts or...? Kinda scary. I'll try not to think about it. Especially living here, as I do, in a much more likely place to sustain such an attack than if we lived in a more rural area. *sigh*

Though I doubt he reads this board, I do want to extend congratulations to our new president elect, Barak Obama. Though most here probably did not want him to be our President, the fact of the matter is he is, so, our job is to pray for him and support where we can. [color=#0000FF]1Ti 2:1 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, [b]supplications, prayers, intercessions, [and] giving of thanks, be made for all men;[/b] 1Ti 2:2 For kings, and [for] all [b]that are in authority[/b]; [u][b]that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty[/b][/u]. 1Ti 2:3 For [b]this [is] good and acceptable [/b]in the sight of God our Saviour; 1Ti 2:4 W…

by Chuck Baldwin Free republics are not known to have long life expectancies. At the ripe old age of two hundred and thirty-two, America is definitely showing her age. She is long past her prime, and some are predicting her demise. No, some are PLANNING her demise. Thomas Jefferson and the other founders of this once-great country believed there was a controlling cabal that was crafting America?s servitude. With the assistance of Heaven, they decided to fight those forces. Pastors fought with fiery sermons from the pulpit; newsmen fought with the power of the pen; statesmen fought in the halls of Congress; and merchants fought with the sacrifice of their material gain…

Looks like the Republicans have taken back the House! Bye bye Pelosi! I can't believe how close she was to the Presidentcy. I've never heard her say one intelligent thing. She always looked like a deer in headlights. I am SO happy she's gone!

All the talk about Obama being ahead in polls in Ohio must be polls from the cities. Here in rural South East Ohio I'm seeing very little evidence of any support for Obama. However we are negatively impacted by his war on coal, the resulting close of power plants, and loss of jobs. I would guess that is why no visits here from the Obama-Biden camp.

He's not black!!!! 1 2 3

Good grief. I'm trying not to talk or even think about Obama too much but for crying out loud, he is NOT black. He is more white than anything! A full half white...the other half is mixed black and oriental. He is not our first "African American" President. Its just one of the many lies this guy is getting away with. Hope nobody here owns too much stock because those who do are in more trouble than they've already been this past year.

'Duck Dynasty' star Phil Robertson talks values, family in new book I surely wish he was a Baptist, & not a coC. The coC teach their people to be good people, yet it sure would be nice if they would actually teach the how to be saved, instead of teaching them to count on baptizing & good works.

Frankly, I wonder who anoints who as a "Christian leader". I am not talking about the politicians here that are involved in this. To me they have that right. But by the Bible. National Religious Broadcasters president Jerry Johnson, Pastor John Hagee, and Franklin Graham. Not to mention the RCC people. Who anointed them, Fox? Now these guys just might show up everywhere. As my spokesman. lol. I don't need a spokesman. The Bible says it. Now they are going to get on there and try convince people that don't know the things of God. With the natural mind. About the things of God. Its like hitting a brick wall. In my opinion. Pastors trying to Pastor a "Chri…

My husband told me that in Obama's book, he clearly states that he will always support Muslims. Does America have her head down a toilet bowl or something? Are we idiots? Seems like 9/11 actually ushered in a possible Muslim rule. I guess 9/11 succeeded after all...far greater than they could ever realize. All we can hope is that McCain gets some guts and exposes this guy for being the Muslim he is. I know McCain is no better, but I'd even rather have Hillary in office than a terrorist.
