Independent Fundamental Baptist Alan 3,493 Posted May 4, 2017 Author Independent Fundamental Baptist Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 (edited) Brethren, In an, "National Day of Prayer speech," President Donald Trump signed an Executive Order that forces the Federal Government, specifically the IRS, to not target Christians, churches, and pastors for the following of their religious beliefs. This Executive Order will, among other things, cancel the Johnson Amendment that prohibited pastors, from their pulpit, by the threat of revoking their tax exempt status, from making political comments or getting involved in social issues. Quite frankly I believe that this Executive Order will stop a lot of the political, social, and special rights groups from verbally, and legally, attacking pastors, Christians and churches. http://video.foxnews.com/v/5421767813001/?#sp=show-clips President Trump said, "No American should be forced to choose between the dictates of the Federal Government and the tenets of their faith." Also, in the beginning of his speech, President Trump partially quoted James 1:17 when he said, freedom "... is a gift of God." throughout the speech President Trump reminded the public that our founding fathers (he quoted Thomas Jefferson at one point), enshrined religious freedom as the first (and main), freedom in our great land of religious faith. President Trump is trying to reverse the evil, unjust, un-democratic, un-constitutional, attack on our religious freedom from the Federal Government, special rights groups, the homosexual crowd, the socialist and communist leaning men and women in power in our country, and give us back our Constitutional rights. And, President Trump is reversing the trend of revising the early American religious, Christian, history of our country. I think with signing this Executive Order that President Trump is helping America being a better country again. I think that President's Trump is answered prayer from God above in starting to heal our land from the destructive actions of Clinton, Obama, and the militant atheists and homosexual crowd. "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 Chronicles 7:14 May God above bless all of you.

Independent Fundamental Baptist Ronda 537 Posted May 6, 2017 Independent Fundamental Baptist Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 I am thankful President Trump is working hard to restore some of our Christian freedoms and rights. I just hope he can get enough done to make a difference. It was wonderful to see him sign the repeal of the "Johnson Amendment", BUT Congress needs to act on the full repeal of the "Johnson Amendment", otherwise it's merely a temporary gesture. I was disheartened when suffering through Comey's fiasco earlier this week. When asked about the IRS targeting the "Tea Party" and other conservative organizations, Comey admitted that it was POSSIBLE there was wrong doing but he "couldn't make a case" because he "couldn't prove intent". He also admitted that Anthony Weiner and Huma abedin HAD unlawfully kept and shared classified information on an insecure computer. But (Comey) said he "couldn't make a case" because he "couldn't prove intent". Then he again admitted it was likely a conflict of interest when past AG Lynch had met with former president Bill Clinton on the tarmac/plane, BUT again claimed he "couldn't make a case" because he "couldn't prove intent". (Then he gushed over how much he LOVES and respects Loretta Lynch). He also admitted that Hillary had classified emails on an unsecure server, AND that she had SHARED some of those classified emails with Huma Abedin and her former spouse Anthony Weiner, but AGAIN Comey claimed he "couldn't make a case" because he "couldn't prove intent". Then when the question of Susan Rice and her alleged misuse of unmasking and disseminating classified information could be a crime and should have a special prosecutor requested, he hemmed and hawed and the subject was changed to Mike Flynn (who is a democrat, by the way, and his security clearance was given by the Obama administration), Comey THEN decides that "perhaps a special prosecutor should be considered"???? It is more than apparent that FBI director James Comey is playing partisan politics... but what was more troubling was his apparent lack of respect for the LAW and the CONSTITUTION when Ted Cruz brought forth the legal code showing without a shadow of a doubt that it was/is not Comey's JOB to "prove intent", but to recommend future action to the DOJ and AG. Comey seem nonplussed. He has no respect for the law, nor his position as director of FBI. But instead is rather smug in his position, believing he cannot be ousted (and it IS difficult to remove an acting FBI director prior to his completion of a 10 year tenure). Obama appointed him in 2013, and if he is to serve his full 10 year tenure, he won't leave office until 2023 :( The entire time I was watching this dog and pony show... I kept thinking of Isaiah 59:14-1514 "And judgment is turned away backward, and justice standeth afar off: for truth is fallen in the street, and equity cannot enter." 15 "Yea, truth faileth; and he that departeth from evil maketh himself a prey: and the Lord saw it, and it displeased him that there was no judgment." While I do believe President Trump is acting to bring back Christian freedoms and constitutional rights, I also think that the 'deep state' (whom I believe to be led by evil demonic influence) is too deeply entrenched for even the best of presidents to unravel and defeat. I believe God heard our voices on election night, and I also believe the Lord is watching over Pres.Trump... there are so many death threats and open avowing to do him physical harm, besides the basest of derogatory remarks airing on television.... That the Lord MUST be protecting him. But I do not think the US has a long term life. As sad as that is to say, I believe there is a reason we are not noted in Bible prophecy. I am hoping that the ruination of the US comes AFTER the rapture, and I am also hoping that the reason the Lord is right now protecting not just the President, but many of us civilians, is because He desired to give us a reprieve to share the gospel with the lost. I fully believe that since most end time prophecy is lined up and at the door that we won't be here much longer. We can clearly see that characteristics of the 'perilous last day' (2 Tim.3:1-7, 13) are evident. (If you don't believe that, try having a CIVIL conversation with anyone on the left on social media... you will be called names that should make a hardened criminal blush). While the world appears to be falling apart, it is actually falling into place... into God's prophetic timeline. Maranatha! Alan 1 Report Link to post Share on other sites

Independent Fundamental Baptist Alan 3,493 Posted July 7, 2017 Author Independent Fundamental Baptist Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 One of the great things about the Trump presidency is that he is bringing back the rule of Constitutional Law to our Judicial system. After the Supreme court upheld the Travel Ban issued by Trump, the socialist in the Sate of Hawaii sought to overturn the travel ban in the Hawaiian Federal Court. The Federal Judge denied their claim, "Last week, attorneys for the federal government said that the 'close' family relationships allowed under the President Trump's travel ban were based on definitions outlined by immigration law. The state's emergency motion – denied on Thursday by Judge Derrick Watson in Honolulu – sought to make sure that the ban couldn't be enforced against other family members, such as grandparents, aunts and uncles. In his ruling, Watson reasoned that since the portion of the ban Hawaii was seeking to clarify was authored by the Supreme Court, the state's lawyers should seek clarification directly from them." Judge Derrick Watson then stated, "This Court will not upset the Supreme Court’s careful balancing and “equitable judgment” ... nor would this district court presume to substitute its own understanding of the stay for that of the originating Court’s “exercise of discretion and judgment.” What I find is that our Judicial Courts are in the process of ruling by the law of the land and not by the social agenda of many of the rights groups, democrats, liberals, and other socialist minded individuals.

The Travel Ban does not go far enough to stop the invasion of illegal aliens into America and our Federal government has far too much power over the rights of the Sates. In this case President Trump did though use his power as President for the good of America. Also, as I wrote earlier in this thread (and mentioned a couple of times), I do not agree with the character, his role model as a President, nor a lot of the policies, of Trump. I just feel he is doing some good executive actions in his capacity as President that are right, and great, for America.

I thought it was a great spreech that is worthy of our attention. Here is the link: Quite frankly, it was almost like hearing the financial and regulatory polices of President Ronald Reagan. I think the economic policies of a Donald Trump administration would help the financial health of America............. Alan I'm not too familiar with President Trump's economic policies but I do sense that the economy has been on the rise since he took office. I will note that our business does increase between the months of February and May, but it's now July and it's still going strong. I have probably done more business in the past five months than I did for each of the last eight years. I think business people in general have more confidence in the economy right now and I hope it stays that way. More business means more jobs, and more jobs means more business. I wish I could say the same for my sheep business but, I haven't sold a sheep in a few months now and I have 5 figures worth that I'm going to have to feed all summer with no guarantee they will sell. I was told by one of the auction buyers that it's the Muslims, who he has dealings with, who are worried about what Trump is going to do. I say it's bad that sheep sales are down but great if these heathens are worried. I hope he ships the whole lot out and bans all of the Muslims.

From what I have read, America's economy is doing better since Trump has been in office than in the previous years (I do not have precise data to back up this statement). And, the Muslim religious fanatics, who caused the terrorists attacks, are concerned. I feel that Trump is not only helping the economy of the United States, but he is preventing future terrorist activity. The flood (should I say invasion), of economic refugees have hurt Europe in many ways and it it continues it will destroy the economic, moral, religious, and social fabric of America.

I have not heard that either. We often hear that it was refugees that helped our country to be great. They forget, or choose not to remember, that it was Christian refugees from Catholic Europe that helped our country. Weavers from Northern France, Farmers from Netherlands, for instance. There was also what was known as the "Protestant work ethic" People were eager to work. Now many Just don't want to work, just live off the state. There is plenty of work on farms, picking fruit, etc.but people won't leave their homes to go to farms for work, but Europeans come hundreds of miles to work on farms. Farmers say if they cannot get the foreign workers, they can;t operate. When I was at school we we taught "Our Duty", now it seems they are taught "Our Rights," (I notice that I have got a spelling checker back so you should see a difference in my spelling, typos etc.) BabeinChrist 1 Report Link to post Share on other sites

Unlike those European immigrants of days gone by, the vast majority of these people will not assimilate. They fully intend to over-run your country and do away with your culture and are becoming much more bold about it too. It is only going to get worse. Our country has already allowed a Muslim to hold the highest office in our land which I still consider unconscionable . But now, in our country, I believe President Trump may be part of the last line of defense because, in spite of his faults, he actually cares about the U.S., unlike Obama who was bent on destroying it. Yes, we have both "duty" and "rights" and these are outlined in our Bible. Our "duty" is to be concerned with the "rights" of others.
