Stranger sharing the Messianic prophecies about Yeshua from the scriptures. The place is the road to Emmaus, in sight of the Mount of Olives, and the two discouraged disciples listen to the stranger's wonderful words of God's truth, their hearts "burning" within them.

THE EMMAUS WALK:

A Messianic School of the Bible


AN OPEN DOOR TO THE BIBLE AND UNDERSTANDING IT

WORLD'S GREATEST BOOK CAN BE UNDERSTOOD IF GIVEN A CHANCE: Beyond question, the greatest book in the world is the Bible, and the greatest Book is about the greatest Person, Jesus Christ (Yeshua the Anointed).

Friend, are you unable to read the Bible, that is, make sense of it? Or do some parts make sense, but others, such as Leviticus or Revelation or Romans seem totally bewildering? Are you desiring to go deeper, or reach a higher ground, spiritually, but your difficulty in comprehending scripture is holding you back? It may well be you need to consider that the Bible is essentially Messianic--that is, it exists to tell you about the Messiah and Savior, and virtually everything in the Bible points to Him. With this understanding, you are on your way to unlocking the scriptures and opening the door to Yeshua--for they are, in truth, a living Person, Jesus (Yeshua), who delights in His Name, the Word (John 1:1: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."

You are most welcome to review the list of the Bible books now. This is vital. In this era, when there is so little knowledge of the Bible, it can no longer be taken for granted that everyone knows what they are.

THE MESSIANIC BIBLE TEXTS--WHAT ARE THEY?

The Bible's Messianic Texts are thus named because they are passages in scripture that point specifically to the Messiah, Yeshua (Jesus in Gentile terminology). Foremost in consideration of these texts, Christ Himself chose it when conducting an informal Bible class with two distraught and troubled disciples who had left Jerusalem just after the crucifixion and were on their way to Emmaus, a village seven miles from the Holy City. This spiritual trek inspired the logo graphic at the top of our home page, and in Judaea in the time of Jesus (see the map) Emmaus is near the bottom, located close by Jerusalem.

In connection with this book about Peter Marshall, Joyce Meyer's magazine, December 2005, offers "Stand Up and Be Counted," DVD and VHS by Joyce Meyer. The 66-minute video features Alan Beliles, Peter Marshall, and Dave and Joyce Meyer.

Be sure to read a biography of Sir Isaac Newton the physicist and inventor of calculus--also a Christian and agreed by most scientists to be the greatest scientist who ever lived. We need to know that Christians (Bible-believing followers of Jesus "Christ!) have furthered the advance of science, technology, and civilization beyond any other group (and certainly beyond the contributions of secular humanists!).

"We Have a Choice, Humility or Humiliation," perhaps a last and most significant call to America to repent or be destroyed by our enemies (Islamic terrorist organizations and supporting Islamic nations, with friends in the West aiding them, such as the secular-humanists entrenched in the U.S. Congress). This call is Robison's prophetic warning, available in his 16-page booklet printed and distributed by LIFE Outreach International, Fort Worth, TX, 2006.

Brigitte Gabriel, a Christian from Lebanon and now a U.S. citizen, tells about the horrors of the Islamic takeover of a formerly prosperous, advanced Christian nation of Lebanon. To obtain her book about the deception and agenda of aggressive Islamics:

Brigitte Gabriel's "Because They Hate," via John Hagee Ministries


MEDIA ALERT CENTER NEWSFLASH: It is reported that Former President Jimmy Carter has a new book out defaming Israel as an "apartheid" state and championing the PLO and Israel's terrorist enemies. He has vigorously defended his book as "accurate," after an avalanche of criticism and protest against his pro-Palestinian, anti-Israel statements.

If there was any question of it before, this book clearly shows Mr. Carter's true colors as an anti-Jewish secular humanist and a supporter of terrorists (for his book will give them all great encouragement and increase the attacks on Israel now on the eve of a confrontation with a nuclear-armed Iran). Despite the wonderful house-building program of his, he has shown for his entire career that he hates America and despises her Christian heritage and institutions, to the extent he travels incessantly to encourage America's enemies. This man who claims to be a Christian, and born-again, cannot do what he does and be what he claims to be. You know a tree by its fruit, the Bible says in many ways and places. Cursing Israel as he does in his book has shown him up! His book is so unfactual and biased, fourteen of the men in his foundation, the Carter Center, have quit. Obviously, they cannot bear be associated with his violent and baseless attack of Israel. The Christian fold or flock has often contained wolves--and this man may wear a fleece but he is far from being a sheep when he shows such wolfish canines as he is showing when he attacks God's chosen people and the nation of Israel. I think the best we can do is pray for his salvation. He is very deceived, if he is a Christian, which I have to seriously doubt. History must record that the present fanatical Islamic regime of Iran is the result of his state policy during his disastrous presidency. Pressured by his own Democratic supporters, he withdrew support of the autocratic, secularist Shah of Iran and then a worse evil took over, the fanatical, jehadist mullahs. His failed policy brought on the disgrace of America when hostages at the U.S. embassy were seized by jehadist revolutionaries, and even more disgrace when he failed to come to the aid of these fellow Americans. I and millions of Americans will never forget the dark days of his sinking administration, when Carter's rescue attempt failed, which cost the lives of the helicopter crews in the botched operation. Did this self-proclaimed born-again Christian pray, and try again? Did he seek God's wisdom and then do what the Lord said? No, he caved in completely to the terrorists of Iran. He paid billions in ransom, money which they then poured into arming their fanatical regime, no doubt, so that they could launch future attacks upon us. A mere handful of Islamic jehadists had completely humbled and humiliated the great United States of America, the superpower of the world! How then could they not embark on a program to attack us and Israel our ally? They sent the squads that blew up the barracks of U.S. peacekeepers in Beirut, killing hundreds of marines. The mullahs of Iran got away with it completely.

Yet Jimmy Carter went on to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, since the secular-humanist Nobel Committee rewards anyone who defames or aids in the destruction of a free, Christian America--even if he is an outright international terrorist such as Yassir Arafat, who also received the Nobel Peace Prize! How can a Christian man of peace stand beside a terrorist and accept the same prize? Yet Jimmy Carter did not blink an eye. Any man with integrity would have rejected such dishonor to his nation and the cause of human freedom.

In response to all the letters of protest and the resignations at the Carter Center, Carter defiantly claims that his book is "accurate." Let God decide. He sent His Son, a Jew, to save the world, and also helped Israel not only gain its independence in 1948 but gave them astounding miracle after miracle so that they could beat the attacking armies of six Arab countries who launched their attack on the day Israel became a state, when all the Jews had was anough firepower to stage a Fourth of July celebration. I have watched a program dealing with these miracles, in which Israeli officers during the wars against Israel by the Arabs testify of astounding acts of God. Despite all the Benedict Arnolds--the Carters of this country--despite all the Jehadist Muslims and their immense arsenals of war, despite the anti-Israel United Nations, little Israel continue to exist and will not be defeated by this Goliath that seeks to destroy her off the face of the earth.

She accomplished this with prayer, perserverance, and the faithfulness of God's Promises in His unconquerable Word!

Roy Ratcliff's "Dark Journey, Deep Grace--the life of Jeffrey Dahlmer. Roy Ratcliff appeared on Daystar TV to talk about his book. It can be found at any Christian bookstore. Jeffrey Dahlmer, who molested, murdered, and dismembered his victims, was saved in prison. Roy Ratcliff kept close contact with the converted Dahlmer, until his death in prison (he was beaten to death with a sawn off pipe by a fellow prisoner--a common occurrence in prison, which any still uncaught molestor ought to consider). This book is not for everyone, obviously, but Christ has no problem with the Dahlmers of this world--He came to die and save sinners, and His grace is sufficient for the worst of us!

THE CROSSING OF PATHS IN LIFE ARE STRANGE AND MYSTERIOUS BUT GOD-DIRECTED: Once I walked through the peaceful, green Shepherds Fields on the edge of Bethlehem while looking for the house of an Arab who worked at the Lutheran church in Jerusalem who invited me, and unknown to me Walid Shoebat's father was the chieftain of that area and Walid was probably present somewhere near me in the little clusters of houses amidst the fields. It was so tranquil a scene, terrorism and the likes of Yassir Arafat and his bloodly, violent agenda was completely alien to what I experienced in the Shepherd's Fields. Walid became a Yassir Arafat-type terrorist against Israel, but has since come to Christ and supports Israel's existence after he turned from hatred and lies fed to him growing up to love and truth. This is clearly a very brave, valiant, and completely honest man! He is incredibly humble, admitting how wrong he was in his former life to believe the things he believed. Could we be so humble--if we discovered everything we believed was a terrible lie? Thank God, we do not have a religion to lead us astray. Jesus is the Way, Truth, and the Life--and no lie can be found in Him! Walid Shoebat greatly wants his beloved Muslim people to be set free from the same enslaving lies and false religion that turn them against Israel and cause them to be used as pawns in the disastrous, bloody power games played in the Middle East by the Muslim elites. Walid Shoebat's website for his books and materials and interviews by Dennis Prager, CNN, Ireland's biggest tv show, and many other major media venues:

Walid Shoebat Website


A man who only went to war for his friends and allies, Abraham would have nothing to do today with the fratracidal strife in the area once called Canaan, which was promised to him and his descendants by Almighty God (not Allah, a false god of Mohammed's making, but the One True God whose Son is Jesus Christ). The "Palestinians" and their apartheidist, genocidal program against the Israelis and the State Israel would have his complete condemnation! He was a father of the Israelis--not their persecutor, as the "Palestinians" have made themselves under the leadership of Nazified, tinpot dictators and terrorists. For the documents and photographs of the World War II meetings and agreements by Hitler and the Grand Mufti (Walid Shoebat's family knew the Grand Mufti, by the way), please go to the websites of Walid Shoebat and Brigitte Gabriel.

It is documented by the Nazi Germans (who are famous for their meticulous record-keeping) that the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, serving Hitler in the Muslim world to annihilate the Jews as his obbjective, raised two Panzer divisions using Moslem Bosnians (the same "innocent" Muslim Bosnian people we sacrificed American lives to defend in the Yugoslavian melt-down, with no credit given America, of course, by the Moslem world community.). Muslims, of course, vigorously deny there is any Nazi connection with Islam (even though the President of Iran and also the late Saddam Hussain outspokenly shared one hero and role model--the mad, carpet-chewing Adolf Hitler!--this one whom the Germans themselves called a carpet "fresser" or chewer).

This is a dead end for Islam--it will not survive the all-out genocidal attack on Israel, for God Almighty will go to Israel's aid, just as he has in the past wars. America too has had bad leadership in regard to Israel and has greatly suffered with Hurricane Andrew, the Perfect Storm of 1991, 9/11, and the even worse Katrina/Rita monster hurricanes, inflicted on us by God our Judge because we have been pressuring Israel, from President George Bush Sr. on, to give up Israeli land for peace (the most absurd and impossible way ever to assure peace with your greedy, hostile neighbors!). Gaza was given by God to Israel forever--but Prime Minister Sharon handed Gaza (its Israeli settlements too) over to the Palestinianian terrorist state, after being pressured by President George Bush and Condoleeza Rice. That was a very dark day, and shortly after he did that he suffered a massive stroke that almost killed him and removed him from office. Pat Robertson, a truthful man of God, was pilloried for stating the obvious, that a judgment from God had struck the mighty Sharon down. Well--does anyone have a better explanation for the timing of what he did to his own countrymen and the event of his stroke? He did what was patently wrong, in the eyes of God, according to the Bible--and the reason for his grave mistake is that Sharon is a secularist, a non-believer, so the Covenant with God meant nothing to him, only political expendiency. How are our leaders any different? They think in the same secularist and humanist grooves, and then make the same mistakes, time after time. They do not seem to learn, do they? They can attend all the services they like in the so-called Washington National Cathedral (which is New Age, its services proclaiming that Allah and the God of Abraham are one God, which they never could be, according to both the Koran and the Bible), but it means nothing. They do not seek God's wisdom in making their decisions. It is obvious from the poor and disastrous decisions they make that they do not listen to God. Man's flawed reasoning and overweeming pride dominate in all their decisions. To Abraham (not to any other man or nation on earth) God said: "And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing."--Genesis 12:2. This blessing holds for descendants of BOTH his sons Isaac and Ishmael, as they both hearken and bow to the God of Abraham and accept what is said about his greatest descendant, Jesus Christ, born not of human seed but of the Spirit of God. Without Middle East oil, Israel has gone to work and used its brain and muscle power and has blossomed, granted, but with Jesus Christ, it will blossom beyond any nation on earth. The Arab and Muslim states, in contrast, despite all their untold billions of oil revenues, have not blossomed--they are not going forward, precisely because they have not blessed but cursed Israel, the apple of God's eye. We too in America were blessed phenomenally by providing a haven for persecuted Jews from the time of the American Revolution, but increasingly of late our nation is turning against Israel, arbitrarily forcing little Israel to give up its own land to its sworn enemies (something we would never do ourselves willingly!). Consequently, we are on the verge of joining this dismal crew of failed states that is the Muslim world today, as a direct result of interfering with Israel and forcing Israel to give up her Covenant land to her enemies. We must stop this policy of feeding Israel to the lions or we too will be destroyed. A mere 11 or so men brought America to its knees on 9/ll. It can happen again, but next time we may not be able to get back on our feet as our back will be broken. John McTernan, who appeared on Sid Roth's "It's Supernatural" television program, is absolutely right in connecting these terrible, increasingly destructive events with our treatment of Israel--and has to my mind at least explained perfectly why our nation has suffered catastrophes as 9/11 and the hurricanes that destroyed New Orleans and many coastal communities. If you have a better explanation, let us know. Please go to Sid Roth's website for John McTernan's book or call 1-888-833-6416 and ask for Order 1055. A donation of $20 will include shipping and handling. I plan to order my copy immediately. The book can also be obtained by writing to: Sid Roth, P.O. Box 1918, New Brunswick, GA 31521, with the Order #1055.

It is thrilling to see a band of some brave British Christians say "enough is enough" and stand up against the evil tide of secular humanism that is destroying their once great nation (and we are slavishly following the secular humanists in our own country, so there can be no pride, thinking we are doing a whit better!)!

As a confirmation of my statement about witchcraft influencing the residents of the White House, there is a word that the four fallen angels that the Bible says were bound in the River Euphrates are now released, and with the war in Iraq, they have been displaced from Iraq to...the attacking country, the United States. The characteristics of, say, a Saddam Hussein, can be expected then to show up in U.S. leadership and the culture at large. We are prime for such a takeover--as we have already prepared ourselves for genocide, with the killing of 40 million unborn babies, and the practicing of partial birth abortion, which is not allowed in any other country on earth it is considered so barbaric and inhuman. Look for Nebuchadnezzar's pride, arrogance, self-worship, dictatorial rule, oppression of the weak and all those who disagree with him. Then there is the extravagant lifestyle, the excess of luxury and lavish architecture, and immorality of all kinds. I would think the four fallen angels will not have much to change, after they set foot on our shores!

"From Pearl Harbor to Calvary," by Japanese air commander at Pearl Harbor, Mitsuo Fuchida, with Jacob DeShazer (American POW in WWII)


"Has God Forgotten Japan?" by Koji Honda is a booklet, proclaiming the great evangelistic harvest of Japan in the ministry of an evangelist God raised up named Koji Hona, a former Buddhist. This autobiography will stir all you believers to pray for Japan's chance for hearing the Gospel at least once in their present generation. Is is not that God has forgotten Japan, rather, it is America that has forgotten Japan, spiritually. Gen. Douglas MacArthur, supreme U.S. overlord in postwar Japan, called for a thousand missionaries to be sent from America to preach the Gospel in a defeated Japan to a people who were full of hunger for the light and liberty of Jesus Christ. Did America hear and respond? No! We sent a handful, not the thousand missionaries requested by the great general. But better later than never! We still have a chance to rectify this grave mistake. God will hold us all responsible for caring only about ourselves in America and nothing for Japan, a nation and people lost in the darkness of false religions for over a thousand years.

Perhaps the most remarkable story of martyrdom and faith of a Christian to come out of the former Soviet Empire and Communist Russia: "A Russian Martyr, Ivan Vasilyevich Moiseyev," Translated by H.K. Neerskov, Edited by John. B. Calhoun, and published by Christ for the Nations of Dallas, Texas in 1974. Moiseyev, a serviceman in the army, was persecuted because he was a Christian and tortured and then murdered by drowning by the KGB when he was twenty years old, but he was a mature saint even at that age--having become a man of prayer and miracles. Angels regularly appeared to him, and took him to heaven as well. Miracles occurred when he prayed for his fellow soldiers to see that God existed and that Christ was available to save their souls from hell. Many did--they could no deny that God was with Moseyev despite everything his army superiors and the KGB could do to try to make him recant and deny Christ. He died triumphant in Christ--and his death spurred his family to write about his outrage to the highest authorities at the Kremlin and also to share his story of courage and faith in persecution with the whole world. This story can give us a foretaste of what is in store for Christians in America who refuse to deny their faith to secular-humanist authorities in the near future. Concentration camps will come to America--given the rapid spread of secular humanism, which has been called a "dictatorship of relativism." Absolutist Christians (who hold that the Bible is the Word of God and that only Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life) will be bitterly perscuted, imprisoned, tortured, and killed by the secular humanist rulers of America. What we saw in the old Soviet Empire will fall our lot--if we continue to let our religious liberties erode under the daily assaults of anti-Christian activist forces and organizations. This story will help prepare us for what is coming upon us soon. The notion, "It can't happen here in America" is only proof that it will.

Conversion to Christ the Savior is the way for people to change their minds and take Biblical views (it is the work of the Holy Spirit, not anything people say), but there are legitimate ways to counter and confront subtle as well as blatant liberal biases in the news and media:

One paragraph from the AFA Pass Along Sheet regarding Wal-Mart: "When Wal-Mart announced their support for the homosexual agenda a few weeks ago, they meant what they said. You will remember that the Wal-Mart asked for, and received, permission to join the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce (NGLCC). Wal-Mart announcd they were giving two large grants to NGLCC. The world's largest retailer was rewarded with a position on the board of NGLCC. Wal-Mart also announced they would give preference to homosexual-owned businesses in purchasing products." This is easy to prophesy: God is against this company, and it is headed down-hill! Its leadership and supervisors will start making all sorts of wrong decisions, and the cumulative effect wlll destroy the company. It has happened to one corporate giant after another in America, once they decided to cater to the money of the homosexuals by endorsing their gay rights agenda. Once they show their contempt in this clear way, contempt for God, morality, and God's people, they are putting a knife to their own throats. Please write to them, or go in person, and express your views on this change in their policies, that flagrantly attack traditional morality and even Bible-sanctioned marriage.

Item: Contrary to the impression given by the anti-Israel U.S. media, travel is FAR safer in Israel than it is in our big secular-humanist-run U.S. cities. There is far more crime and violence here, than is ever seen in Israel. The fence set up to keep suicide bombers out has worked beautifully--as you can tell from the news headlines, which are not reporting suicide bombers almost daily any more. Suicide bombers are now frequent occurrences in Baghdad, an unsecured city where almost anything can and does happen. It could use some methods the Israelis have perfected, if the U.S. would be open to excellent advice (which they apparently are not)./ But Israel is very safe, and Israeli airlines and Israel security, coming and going, is the best on the planet.

The Arabs cared nothing for the beauty and the wildlife of the land of Canaan, and so it was left for Israel (its rightful owner) to restore the ruined habitats and even the existence of many species. A wonderful program on wildlife in Israel is offered by PBS, which shows the valiant efforts to re-introduce extinct species to the wilds of Israel as well as protect those that are near extinction. Look for the nature program on America Online by clicking on PBS or go to PBS directly:

COULD THIS BE THE BOAT JESUS SAILED IN? Many experts have gone and verified that this boat is 2,000 years old, as it has been carbon-dated to the First Century, the time of Jesus. This discovery in 1986 of a 2,000 year old wooden sail boat on the muddy shores of the Sea of Galilee by two Jewish brothers made people take notice around the world, as you can well imagine. Read the exciting account of the discovery and browse in the store (the boat was found in front of the store, which is Christian operated and is helping many needy individuals in Israel as God blesses it. Alex Baraq, the manager, appeared on Daystar with Marcus Lamb to tell about the "Jesus Boat" and the discovery. The website of the Jesus Boat also shows pictures of the Galilee region. You can order from the wide selection of products offered at the store. A miracle occurred at the discovery of the boat. A rainbow appeared, as if to say this boat is special, and the two brothers were prvileged to find what God had preserved in the thick lake mud since Jesus's time there (it would have been destroyed if it had been on land). Having sailed on the sea (and my mother and sister years later also made the trip by boat across from Tiberius to Capernaum), I was intrigued to find out about this boat, which was discovered three years after my last trip to Israel. If you can go to Israel, be sure and check out this boat in person! And shop at the store. It has dozens of beautiful things, books, Bibles, olive wood artifacts, torahs, t-shirts, pictures, hangings, scents, perfumes, jewelry--the list is impressive indeed, even including David's slingshot! Buying any item helps needy (Jewish and Arab) Israelis too. By serving such need, the business blossomed, as God as clearly blessing it.

Have you wanted to know more about Israel's wildlife? Traditional species have been re-introduced that were there thousands of years. Remaining species have been protected. This work of the restoration of the animals of the Holy Land is a quiet one but needs a National Geographic special to do it justice. It takes the loving care and expertise of those who deeply love the wonderful creatures that made the land of Israel so unique and varied. A formerly barren, depopulated, unwanted Israel had been made to blossom as the rose, with replanted pine forests, gardens, farms, vineyards where there had been desolation baking in the burning sun. A former desert of nothingness in the Negev, south of Judaea, and the Plain of Sharon's malarial swampland, are now bread baskets, producing more fruit and vegetables than any other real estate on earth, the habitats and the species of Israel's wildlife are being restored and put back into the landscape.

These settlers set up businesses that would have furnished jobs for the Palestinians. The late robber-king and terrorist ringleader, Yassir Arafat, was supposed to use the billions of dollars of aid money from Europe and America to set up businesses and vital infrastructure consisting of roads, hospitals, clinics, modern housing, plumbing, sewage disposal, and transportation, but he squandered and hid it away for himself instead. These settlers watched in horror as the work and love invested in these businesses went up in flames as the Palestinians wantonly destroyed them, rather than operate them themselves for the benefit of their families. This proves that the Palestinians were not interested in creating a viable country for themselves but only in committing acts of destruction--a totally negative policy and way of life that will never get them anything good in this world or the next! They could have been so blessed with the homes, nurseries, and buildings left by the settlers, but they tore them down! The U.S. media would not show this senseless destruction of hatefilled Palestinians since it might discredit them in the eyes of the U.S. audience. That is how the evil is perpetuated. We are fed lies constantly like this by the media. But the true story cannot be destroyed, even if it has been ignored. We know the facts. Do you?

CENTER FOR AMERICA'S SPIRITUAL REBIRTH AND NATIONAL RESTORATION:

CONGRESS DECLARED THE BIBLE THE WORLD OF GOD IN 1983:

"Congress Declares Bible 'The Word of God'" and 1983 'Year of the Bible'"


This clear and unequivocal Proclamation needs to be inscribed in granite, lest we forget, and set on the Mall so that thousands of true Americans passing by can take pride in the knowledge that our Congress has declared officially for our being a Christian-founded Nation, with a unique destiny based on the Word of God, our original, most important Founding Document as a free people and free nation! Let the Jimmy Carters, Rose O'Donnells, the ACLU, Americans [sic] United for Separation of Church and State, the Jerry Springers, the Brad Pittses, Belo Corporation and the other Anti-American media giants, the Ted Turners and Jane Fondas and Bush-bashing Barbra Streisands, be given full notice that America is not theirs any longer to trash and defile with the sanction of Congress, the courts, and the American people!

Let the nation's leaders, Jewish, Christian, and others, join in setting up this great monument on the Mall or on a suitable site close by the Capitol (for we know that without Christ, the Bible, and Christian beliefs and values, that Capitol would not exist, and certainly would have been destroyed years ago by our enemies). Christians and non-Christians who love America as she was founded to be must join and start re-affirming the foundations of America, by taking the offensive, before we are robbed of our own history by those who hate it and want the record purged of everything Christian.

Well, fellow Americans, fellow Christians, will you do it? Time is fast running out to stop the destruction of America from within by doing something positive and utterly historical that is in our right as a free people to do.

FEMINISM HAS LOST ITS MORAL COMPASS: So far, feminists in America have missed their grand opportunity to advance the cause of oppressed women, by rejecting Christianity and Christ and the Ten Commandments. Only Christ and Christianity have advanced women on this earth--as history records again and again. Atheism, socialism, secular humanisms, feminism, have done next to nothing for bettering the condition of women. Feminists are not emancipating themselves; rather, they are enslaving themselves and other women to a liberal agenda that does not advance women but makes them political animals (and selfish, self-centered ones at that!). Amoral, profane, haters of men and marriage, they have doomed their own gender if they get their full way. What an irony! Emancipation that oppresses and degrades! These same feminists would be enslaved, even executed by their allies--the men who wield power in patriarchal Moslem societies and nations. Yet these feminists of America run to to patriarchal Muslims who would treat them worst of all, rather than accept the freedom, value, and fulfilling life only Christ can give a woman!

"The American Dream," Excerpt of Message by Peter Marshall


According to the Discovery Channel documentary, "China," that half-asleep but awakening leviathan of a nation is projected to surpass the U.S. economy in the next couple decades, and at its rate of growth it will take another Earth to supply China with the resources it will need to consume.

Right now it has more population than the U.S. and Europe combined. Seven million are added each year. There are 230 million children in school. The figures about China are almost all equally staggering and unbelievable.

Despite the present cordiality between the respective heads of America and China (and despite the lack of any visionary course to take regarding this rival superpower and coming world colossus), we are on a fatal collision course that must go nuclear (unless the U.S.'s cowardly leadership just caves in to a Chinese ultimatum), for the earth cannot hold two nuclear-armed superpowers, one free, the other ruled by autocratic dictatorship and Communist and atheistic in ideology. In any war we will be the loser, as we do not have the heart to kill millions of our enemies in order to remain free. China knows this and is just waiting for the best time to attack us, when we seem most weak and divided. Perhaps, we have already started to give in--unofficially. One day we may look out and see Chinese "peacekeeper" detachments in the major cities? It is not impossible. The West let Communist China have Hong Kong, the major economic powerhouse of the East, other than Japan. With Hong Kong as its major engine to jump start the rest of China industrially and economically, China then proceeded on its economic and political agenda to out-produce the United States and capture major markets and essential resources round the world.

"Feeding the Dragon," A View of China and U.S. Relations Since 1949, Parts I and II, by Ronald Ginther, with Excerpts from Gordon Lindsay's book, "Red China in Prophecy, 1973, and Conclusion and Summing up by Ronald Ginther


In connection with the threat of China, it is best to be informed as much as possible. Dr. L. Nelson Bell was the outstanding missionary to China who was father to Ruth Bell Graham, and so he is Billy Graham's revered father-in-law. The story of Dr. Bell, a missionary and surgeon in China, is given in "A Foreign Devil in China," by John C. Pollock. It is based on a compilation of Dr. Bell's letters written about day to day events and circumstances and challenges over a course of many years in China until his retirement. It was published by BGEA, 1971. The information it gives about China, the missionaries, the people of China and their struggles, the challengs that every missionary must face in such a land, are still very current thirty or so years later. The book title is a bit misleading, however. To the Chinese, whom Dr. Bell regarded as the most lovable people on earth, called him "Chong Ai Hua," translated, "The Bell who is lover of the Chinese people."

This lover of the Chinese people in practical ministry to their physical ailments devoted the best years of his life to serving them day after day, year after year, in difficult, even dangerous circumstances, while raising a family on the mission station! No wonder that Billy Graham, his son-in-law, has the highest regard for him above all other men of God--and for good reason, as you should discover when you get a copy of this book and read it. This first-hand account--taken from Dr. Bell's letters--is invaluable to give us a picture of Chinese life and its pecular challenges, even after the Communist takeover in 1949 (thanks to our misguided U.S. State Department). Christian witness and the word of God--sown into the lives of countless Chinese by Dr. Bell and other missionaries--have borne much fruit despite terrific persecution by the Communist authorities. Today China holds the greatest number of Christians of any country, perhaps. It is China (and Africa) that will hold the key to the spread of Christian faith across the globe even as militant Islam marches to take over the West and the other nations of the world.

David Wilkerson, of Times Square Church, Times Square Manhattan, gave a prophetic warning (totally unheeded) to the Big Apple back in 1992 in his newsletter. It is even more cogent today, after the events of 9/11, you will probably agree. To serve as bookends to the prophecy, we have his "Growing Cold on the Eve of Destruction," his message to Times Square Church, 6-13-88, and "When God Departs," Wilkerson's message to his church, given 11-18-1991, which will soon be on-line, at least in part. These messages come in a collection of David Wilkerson's messages given to my mother a few days ago by a dear Christian friend of hers who is moving and could not take everything with her to her new home. They are providentially made available, I believe, to you at the Emmaus Walk, and glancing through them and noticing their titles, I see that these two or three messages, along with the New York City prophetic warning, are sequential and, therefore, all the more meaningful. --Ed.

"His Eye is on the Sparrow," by David Wilkerson, Excerpt, August 21, 2006

IS ANYONE LISTENING TO DAVID WILKERSON'S WARNING? THESE GODLY VOICES ARE RAISED IN WARNING TO AMERICA TO TURN FROM SINNING LIKE THE WORST SINNERS IN SODOM AND GOMORRAH AND REPENT AND SEEK GOD'S FORGIVENESS AND MERCY. YET THIS GODLESS NATION CONTINUES STUMBLING ON IN THE GUTTER, COMMITTING EVERY ACT OF ATROCITY KNOWN TO HISTORY (AS WELL AS SOME NEVER IMAGINED BEFORE!). EVERYWHERE YOU HEAR THE VOICES OF THE DEFIANT GOD-HATERS, IN THE COURTS, IN THE LEGISLATURES, IN THE CAPITOL, IN THE MEDIA, IN THE SCHOOLS, NOW EVEN IN THE ARMED FORCES, RAISED TO DEFY GOD, MORALITY, AND CHRISTIANITY. THEY ARE DARE TO SPEAK OUT LIKE THIS BECAUSE THEY ARE ASSURED THEY WILL NOT BE PUNISHED BY ANYONE, INCLUDING GOD. TO A HILLARY AND BILL CLINTON, BARAQ HUSSEIN OBAMA, BARNEY FRANK, AND THEIR ILK, GOD IS A FOOLISH OLD MAN IN HIS DOTAGE, TOOTHLESS AND IMPOTENT, NO LONGER HOLDING ANY POSSIBLE ROLE ON EARTH! HOW MISTAKEN THEY ARE! THEY ARE THE SAME AS THE CAROUSING PHILISTINES, DRINKING AND CELEBRATING THEIR DEFEAT OF HOLY ISRAEL, THE MOMENT BEFORE THE WHOLE ROOF OF THE TEMPLE THEY WERE USING AS A PARTY PLACE FELL, KILLING EVERY ONE OF THEM, THANKS TO ONE LONE, BLIND MAN OF GOD--SAMSON. THIS CAN HAPPEN AGAIN, ON A VAST SCALE, AS THE JUDGMENT FALLS ON ALL THESE PEOPLE TODAY IN HIGH PLACES. LET US PRAY FOR THEM--FOR DESTRUCTION IS NOT GOD'S DESIRE--BUT SALVATION AND RESTORATION. NEVERTHELESS, DESTRUCTION IS COMING, FOR THE BIBLE SAYS THEY ARE STANDING IN SLIPPERY PLACES. THE MOMENT THEY THINK THEY ARE MOST SECURE AND THAT GOD IS NOT LISTENING TO A SINGLE WORD THEY SAY AGAINST HIM, THE AX WILL FALL, JUST AS IT FELL ON EVERY UNGODLY CIVILIZATION IN THE PAST AND ON EVERY UNGODLY LEADER AND INDIVIDUAL WHO DEFIED GOD.

Bill O'Reilly's book on the secular-humanist BLITZKRIEG on Christian America, "Culture Warrior," has been a romping best-seller for months on New York Times bestseller list. Other than the Bible, this is probably the most hated and feared book in America at the moment. How could one book be so upsetting? Well, Bill O'Reilly is a modern Shamgar or deliverer from God (see the book of Judges!). He refuses to be cowed by any secular humanist--for he knows his facts, and being a "fighting Irish" (self-described) he will not let anyone back him down off the facts and the truth of the issue. Being well-documented, he can go against anyone, even the State of Vermont and its secular humanist court judges, and they need to take notice and change their ways soon or they will have to suffer the consequences.

Shamgar was possibly a non-Israelite who, nevertheless, was used by God to deliver Israel from its foes. If no Israelite is available, God will turn outside the flock to whomever is willing to stand up against evil-doers (Bill O'Reilly's term for the secular-humanists, or "secular progressives" as he called them). Bill O'Reilly is definitely one who is willing, able, and active, in his stand against dishonesty and evil. He has a national radio program and now this book. He appears regularly on prime TV news commentary shows as well. He should be invited to speak at all the universities, where he would be a genuine, desperately needed antidote to the unadulterated liberal, secular-humanist propaganda and indoctrination spoon fed the gullible, mash-potato-minded students for years and years (I was a student in two universities and a college, so I know how unthinking we really were!)--but that is a dim possibility, as he is fast replacing Jerry Falwell as the man most hated and feared by the secular humanist elites presently ruling America and misinforming Americans every way they can through their longtime monopoly on the mass media and TV and movies. At this moment, NBC is attacking him, so this shows that even the giants are roused up and in fighting gear--just as the man-mountain of the uncircumcised Philistine giant, Goliath, strutted before little David and the armies of Israel once upon a time!

THE SUDDENNESS OF GOD'S JUDGMENT GIVES NO TIME FOR ANYONE TO CHANGE ONE'S MIND: Did you see the video clip of the firestorm that swept down a California hillside in Malibu, and destroyed huge luxury homes in a matter of minutes? It looked like a flamethrower was blasting down the hillside, blowing up every tree and home in its path. Apparently, there was no time to save anybody's prize possessions. It matters nothing to a firestorm whether your name is that a glitzy Hollywood star with a garage full of stretch Bentleys or you are a mininum wage grease monkey at a local drive-in lube joint. Fire of this sudden deluge kind is coming for the whole earth-- and it will be far worse, more sudden and catastrophic than the fires in California. First there came a world-wide Flood of Water; next comes a global Flood of Fire. Did you know that the elements Peter spoke of contain the very seeds of their molecular destruction? The molecules can fly apart at any moment--if the mysterious positive attracting force binding them together is withdrawn--and that means sudden catastrophe. This mysterious force has been identified by some to be Christ himself! The world, obviously, does not believe the Bible prophecy, where St. Peter the Apostle warns of the fire that will destroy the whole earth in a brief moment. James Baldwin, a writer famous some years back in the Sixties, wrote a novel, "The Fire Next Time." That is not a book I would recommend, but it is a good title for the judgment of God that is coming soon upon our nation, and perhaps very soon. It does not matter if the whole world scoffs. It scoffed at Noah too--and that whole world and its billions of people (yes, billions!) were swept away in mere minutes. Should the nuclear suitcase bombs of terrorists or the nuclear armed missiles of Iran or China or Russia transported on ships to points off our shores, then fired to explode in our major ports and metropolitan areas along both coasts, we will not even have minutes. They will fire--and it will be all over with San Francisco, Los Angeles, Seattle, Portland, New York, Boston, Baltimore, Charleston, Miami, New Orleans, Houston, and others that can be easily from water without ever coming into contact with port customs patrols. North Korea has only to send atomic bombs with missles out on innocent-looking merchant ships to gain the needed range near U.S. coasts to strike our major coastal cities, and even those major cities located hundreds of miles inland. If I were a deranged communist dictator like North Korea's, in league with anti-U.S terroristic Iran, and determined to take over the world, I would not hesitate to do it. How then can we not expect North Korea (China's convenient attack dog) not to do what China wants done?

In possible connection with this fact of the suddenness of some of the Lord's judgments, a recent dream of mine was quite striking. I saw a man on the edge of a precipice, with an ocean throwing big waves at the rocks below, topple backwards over the edge. His two daughters were playing nearby, seeing him lose his footing and start to fall, scrambled onto the rocks of the edge to attempt saving him, but were in danger themselves of going over. I watched this tragedy from nearby, but could do nothing but pray that the Lord would save his soul before he could strike the rocks below. I could see him perfectly, even his eyes close, as though he had made peace with God as he fell backwards to his death. I awoke at that moment, fortunately, before I could see his death or anything bad happen to his anguished daughters. Who could he be? I had to wonder.

I have thought of Christians in America, even the president as he pursues his policies that only seem to land him in hot water (it was the U.S. failed state policy that led to the Shah's overthrow and the clerics taking over, which has thrown a nuclear-armed fanatic Islamic state of Iran now in our faces!). I also think of how our enemies in America who hate Christians (such as the ACLU and its allies) have seemingly triumphed over us, and are pushing their anti- Christian, anti-morality, anti-traditional-marriage agendas as never before in state and Federal legislatures. I keep hearing from Christians, "God is in control," which is true, but it gives me no comfort to hear, as thousands of babies are being aborted daily in this country, and the barbarism of partial birth abortion (outlawed in all the other countries) continues unabated in abortion butcher shops all across America.

Yes, I know that God wins the war, but the battles now being waged seem lost, for the most part, despite all the prayers and financial support many of us have given to all sorts of Christian groups and ministries. I think too of the dream I had previous to this dream about the two onslaughts of tsunamis against people stranded on a thin strip of rock in mid-ocean, it appeared. When I prayed "Don't let them die", I felt an instant release, and then the killing waves instantly fell back. It was not my prayer power that did it, it was Almighty God obviously who heard the prayer of my heart cast instinctively on him for the sake of the perishing people about to be drowned and swept off their narrow refuge of rocky ground. Whatever people or person or nation these dreams may refer to--they, nevertheless, carry a warning. Intense conflict and struggle (seemingly fatal) will come (and we may yet soon see the fulfilment in the coming conflict of Israel with Iran over its nuclear conflict--a struggle that could draw all the Arab states into it, along with the U.S.). Yet God spoke the Word, and the pounding seas fell back at His mighty rebuke. So it will be. That at least comforts my heart, and I can rest knowing that God will have the victory--either for Israel, or for our Christian nation under ferocious attack by secular-humanism and atheism and various terrorists and Islamic, theocratic-empire-building Wahibists from Saudi Arabia. Whatever happens to Israel will undoubtedly affect us--as we are tied closely together. Perhaps I will have a third dream that will clarify the subjects more. If I do, I hope to give the clarification here. In any event, we have God's Word. In Psalm 118, we are told it is vain to hope in princes (or worldly rulers and presidents) or high-placed men and authorities. We are also told God will NOT forsake us. The psalm is worth reprinting here, but space does not permit. The last line says, "Oh give thanks to the Lord, for He is good, and His mercy endures forever." Despite secular-humanists, Planned Parenthood, activist judges, activist and blasphemous talk show hosts like Rosie McDonell and the even more hypocritical Jerry Springer (who goes home and acts completely different in his own home, it is reported!), or foul-mouthed legislators like homosexual Barney Frank of Maine--despite all the violence and immorality on TV and championed by the media (Belo Corportion, Dallas, Texas, is one media Goliath that is presently waging war against our Christian heritage) because they use it to attack and discredit our priceless Christian foundations as a society and a nation, despite rockstar Madonna's blasphemous act of crucifixion on the stage, despite all the anti-morality and anti-Christian, evolutionist teaching in the U.S. public schools--despite all these floods of darkness and anti-Christ evil, we can know that God will have mercy on us and save us out of the hands of all our enemies. How can we know this? His Word says so! That is how we know. His Word, as it testifies, is everlasting. When the towering pyramids are worn down by time and wind to dust, His Word will remain as powerful and effective as ever!

OUTRAGE AND PROTEST CENTER:

AMERICA'S PRIMETIME INFIDELS HAVE CROSSED THE LINE! HIGH TIME TO FIND A SENATOR MCCARTHY CLONE (NONE OF OUR PRESENT CONGRESS PEOPLE HAVE ANY SUCH MORAL BACK-BONE) AND START DEPORTATION PROCEEDINGS FOR SCANDAL-MONGERING HOLLYWOOD STARS, BLASPHEMOUS AND PORNOGRAPHIC ROCK STARS, AND TOILET-MOUTHED TALK SHOW HOSTS: Senator McCarthy, by and large, had it right. He went overboard, without facts to support his contentions, but he was right on in declaring that communism and communist fifth columnists had penetrated all circles of government and even Hollywood. It was true--as the facts have come out--and one movie producer only had the integrity to say it was true at the time, and he was of course black-listed for years despite the fact he was telling the truth about "Red-leaning" Hollywood.

But that is off the topic a bit--the defamation of Senator McCarthy, which does not do justice to the case the liberals have maintained against him for many years, something they use in their arsenal containing the Salem Witch Hunt to defame and discredit Christianity and Christian values in America.

In the Islamic "republics" and monarchies, immoral, anti-Christ wretches of the feminine gender like Rosie O'Donnell and Madonna (what a defamation of the Virgin Mary she is!) would be dragged into the street from their posh hotel suites and beheaded and torn apart and left as an example to other women not to follow their godless, immoral ways. Let her rail all she likes about Christians. Christians are the first to protect her from the Islamics, who would love to cut any feminist's throat slowly, as the Moslem fundamentalists have been doing to innocent, law-abiding Coptic Christians in Egypt for generations.

These ludicrous excuses for the descendants of Eve could not live in such moralistic, patriarchal societies--they would be hacked to death in the nearest public square. Moslem men would rather die as dogs run over by trucks than let their wives and female relatives copy such atrocities as these American women choose to become and popularize for the duped younger generation of American girls and young women to worship and follow. How is it that they can do what they do in this free society? Why do we Christians permit it, and even defend their "right" to free speech? They have no such right. It is God's right, given on condition to us. If we wage war on God and His liberties, they are withdrawn--we have no unreserved right to them. The Constitution is just another man-made document on a piece of paper, in God's eyes, unless He backs it up. It does not guarantee our liberties or our "right" to abuse our God-endowed liberties. The courts are utterly mistaken, in protecting and sanctioning such spurious "rights." They do not exist! They are conditional liberties, given under God--and when you mock God, and abuse the privilege and liberty, you SHOULD LOSE THE RIGHT AND THE LIBERTY. IT IS NOT YOURS WITH NO CONDITIONS WHATSOEVER! The U. S. courts and judges that say differently are patently, clearly wrong. They should be replaced by real courts and real judges who respect precedent and the rule of law. We have had enough of the secular-humanist, "kangeroo" judiciary in the United States who handle the Constitution as if it were play dough or silly putty. It is time for a restoration of precedent, legal, Bible-based, Consititutional law and courts in America. What we have now is a tyranny of the activist juges and courts (such as the U.S. 9th Circuit Court in California which recently let explosive-packing terrorists go free because they had not yet blown up anything!) over all the other branches of government--and this must end, or it will end us as a once free nation with a once representative government.

Miscreants of Madonna and Rosie O'Donnell's ilk mock all our precious religious and civil liberties by the irresponsible, immoral speech and lewd displays of their bodies and the mouthing of gutter lyrics--which tells me that they do not deserve these privileges won by the shedding of blood and the loss of homes and fortunes by our Founding Fathers. Their behavior tells me they ought to be deported to Islamic countries, exiled, just as was done to public nuisances in the time of the Greeks and Romans, who were certainly not unintelligent people. We need to deport such people, not just the repeat runaway Islamic terrorist who breaks bale and flees to another country when he is scheduled for a court appearance (and this man should have been put away for life, not let go by simple deportation!). Deportation for less than the terrorists is still an effective, legitimate means to bring responsibility and responsible behavior back to the crazed wish-fantasy world concocted by Hollywood starlets, which they are seeking to foist on everyone else to our ruin as a people and a nation. It is high time that they no longer be rewarded by the very nation that they are defaming and destroying with all their might! Let them be punished fairly for their unprovoked attack on our nation, our values, our churches, and our families and children, not to mention, our heritage and foundations as a nation. Let them be forced to take responsibility for their behavior, their abuses of our liberties, and their treasonous statements against America and its fighting men and women in a time of war. Enough is enough! Deport them! Let them learn from hard experience how wrong they are--that they were living in a paradise on earth compared to the Islamic hell-holes where they are sent! They flit from country to country, from glitzy hotel to glitzy resort, ride in limoisines, and do not learn one thing about the local cultures. Let them be deported, so that when their money runs out, they have to learn what life is really alike outside American borders in most countries of the world, particularly those which are Islamic, anti-Christian, and anti-Democratic.

Everyone fears everyone else now in America! We fear to tell the truth! We fear litigation for speaking our minds fairly and truthfully. We let the secular humanists say anything they like, against anyone Christian, yet we are fearfully silent.

Let this cowardly, unconstitutional, defeatist, unchristian, senseless policy stop with us Christians!

Once I watched the deportation proceedings for Lucky Luciano, a bigtime crime boss on the East Coast, back to Italy. A judge said to him, in so many words: "You low life, you clearly showed how you despised our laws and nation by your breaking of the law for profit in numerous crimes, and so you no longer deserve the privilege of remaining in this great country which you have defiled since you imigrated here from your native country. Good riddance! Back to Sicily with you!" Where are such brave judges today? He wasn't so afraid of this mobster's hit men not to render due justice! But in the U.S. now we overlook the victims and reward the criminals--send them to nice detention centers, with all sorts of visiting rights and conveniences, TV, libraries, and lots of good food. That is not imprisonment or punishment for crime. Real prisons exist in Third World countries, including Mexico. I know, having lived in the relatively poor, developing country of Muslim Turkey for a year, that they have real prisons there, for they do not even feed the prisoners. The pragmatic Turks reasoned that the criminals broke the law, so they can feed themselves, it is not for the country to then be penalized by having to provide criminals their food when many Turkish citizens are law-abiding and have little to eat! Isn't that fair? Of course, it is fair! That is exactly how most of he world thinks about criminals. Poor countries cannot afford to coddle criminals. Only the U.S. can afford to furnish room and board to those who break the law.

IF WE CAN NO LONGER PUNISH OR IMPRISON PROPERLY, SUCH AS THEY STILL DO IN OTHER COUNTRIES OTHER THAN IN EUROPE, THEN DEPORT! DEPORT THE ANTI-AMERICAN CRIMINALS AND ABUSERS OF AMERICA'S VALUES AND CHRISTIAN FAITH FLOURISHING IN OUR MIDST! THEY DON'T DESERVE TO BE HERE ONE MORE DAY UNLESS THEY CHANGE THEIR WAYS! DEPORT THE CONGRESSMEN TOO, WHO STAND UP FOR SUCH ABUSIVE PEOPLE! WE HAVE A RIGHT AS AVERAGE AMERICANS TO DECLARE PUBLICLY THAT WE HAVE HAD ENOUGH OF THESE OUTRAGEOUS PEOPLE AND THEIR HATE SPEECH. IF THEY HATE AMERICA, LET THEM GO IN PERSON AND LOVE SAUDI ARABIA, OR LIBYA, OR SYRIA, OR MALAYSIA, OR PAKISTAN, OR SOMALIA, OR SUDAN, OR TUNISIA, OR MOROCCO! THERE ARE PLENTY OF GOOD PLACES TO EXILE SUCH RIFF RAFF AS WE SEE USING THE BULLY PULPIT OF HOLLYWOOD TO SPOUT THEIR IGNORANCE AND BIASES, CAVORTING ON THE MILLION-DOLLAR STAGES OF ROCK SHOWS, AND ATTACKING THE U.S. AND WAY OF LIFE, IN CONGRESS OF ALL PLACES! I WON'T REST UNTIL WE DEPORT THEM, SENATORS NOT BEING HELD IMMUNE FROM THEIR OUTRAGEOUS BEHAVIOR AND DECLARATIONS. THEY HAVE THROWN AWAY THEIR RIGHT TO BE IN AMERICA, IN MY HONEST OPINION. WHAT I HAVE PROPOSED IS A VERY TAME RESPONSE TO THEIR CONTINUAL OUTRAGES. WE WOULD NOT BELIEVE THE RANK ACTS OF TREASON BEING COMMITTED, PLOTTED, AND CARRIED OUT, DAILY ACROSS THIS COUNTRY BY THOUSANDS, MILLIONS EVEN, WHO WANT TO SEE AMERICA UTTERLY HUMILIATED, DEGRADED, DESTROYED, AND MADE OVER INTO A SOCIALIST PRISON CAMP OR A HEDONISTIC, IMMORAL CLUB MEDITERRANEE SEX RESORT. JUST LISTEN IN, IF YOU CAN, TO AN ACLU BOARD MEETING PLOTTING ATTACKS ON CHRISTIANS AND CHRISTIAN LIBERTIES AND INSTITUTIONS, OR A ROUND TABLE AT PLANNED PARENTHOOD DISCUSSING HOW BEST TO FURTHER REDUCE THE BLACK POPULATION IN THE INNER CITIES, OR WHAT PASSES FOR POLITICAL THINKING AND ANALYSIS AT THE OTHER LIBERAL THINK TANKS, REGARDING THIS NATION, VALUES, AND CHRISTIAN HERITAGE. IT WOULD CURDLE YOUR BLOOD. MY BLOOD IS CURDLED! YOU WOULD THINK IT WAS A CABAL OF DEVILS SPEAKING, A CONVOCATION OF SCREWTAPES AND THEIR DIABOLICAL NEPHEWS!

ROUNDING UP SUCH WORTHLESS PEOPLE AND STICKING THEM IN DETENTION CAMPS MIGHT WORK FOR A TIME, BUT IT IS NOT THE ANSWER. HIGH-PAID LAWYERS WOULD GET THEM OUT AND THEY WOULD BECOME WORSE THAN EVER. BUT DEPORTING THESE CLASS-ACT CHARLATANS AND SIGNIFICANT ENEMIES OF AMERICA WHO CARRY A LOT OF CELEB NAME VALUE WOULD SEND A BADLY NEEDED MESSAGE TO ALL THE OTHERS WHO FOLLOW THEM. YET I MUST BE REALISTIC. AMERICA IS NOT GOING TO REFORM, ON ITS OWN INITIATIVE. WE HAVE GONE JUST TOO FAR OVER THE EDGE OF APOSTASY. WE WOULD HAVE TO WAIT FOR CHRIST TO COME, FOR THERE TO COME A CHANGE OF THIS SORT, HOWEVER, WHEN HE WILL RULE, SCRIPTURE SAYS, WITH AN IRON HAND. BUT UNTIL THEN, WHY NOT A NATIONAL REPENTANCE AND REFORMATION? THAT WOULD BE THE EASIER, LESS PAINFUL ROUTE, WOULDN'T YOU SAY? WHY IS UTTER DESTRUCTION NECESSARY TO CHANGE US? IT IS OUR CHOICE, AND MY CHOICE IS ON THE SIDE OF THE EASIER, MERCIFUL WAY, RATHER THAN HAVING THE MOUNTAIN, CHRIST WHO RULES EARTH WITH AN IRON SCEPTER, FALLING ON US AND GRINDING US TO POWDER. I DO NOT PLAN TO GO DOWN WITH THIS SHIP OF AMERICA, AS IT IS, SO I WILL CONTINUE TO PRAY GOD FOR REPENTANCE AND NATIONAL REVIVAL. I CANNOT STAND IDLY BY ANY LONGER, HOPING FOR THE BEST BUT SEEING WHAT IS VILE EXALTED AND WHAT IS GOOD AND TRUE THROWN INTO THE GUTTER. OUR CONGRESS ITSELF EXALTS WHAT IS VILE, TAKING UP WHERE HOLLYWOOD AND MADONNA LEFT OFF! IT IS TIME FOR REPENTENCE, FELLOW AMERICANS. I CAN FEEL THE TSUNAMI OF FIRE COMING FOR AMERICA THIS TIME.--ED.

Dr. D. James Kennedy's letter speaks to the outrage (yes, OUTRAGE) which we as Americans who love God, the Bible, and morality, OUGHT to feel regarding the abuses being perpetrated daily across our nation. Let this excerpt of his letter convince you we need to be outrage, if everything I have said so far has produced only a ho-hum on your part:

Dr. D. James Kennedy's Letter, December 29, 2006


HATE CRIME LEGISLATION TO RESTRICT BIBLE TEACHING ON HOMOSEXUALITY AND PENALIZE CHURCHES AND PREACHERS WHICH PREACH AGAINST IT IS SOON ON THE DOCKET IN THE SECULAR HUMANIST DOMINATED CONGRESS! Few evangelicals knew this at the time (except Dr. Dobson and several other leaders of the evangelicals), but the secular humanists almost had a noose around evangelical necks! Hate crime legislation nearly made it through into law in the "Republican-controlled" Congress--a little known fact to most evangelical Christians at this moment. Senator Edward Kennedy's hate crime clause failed by the proverbial hair (he had cunningly and maliciously tacked the anti-Christian, anti-Bible clause to the end of a bill that had nothing to do with his agenda), but now with the LARGELY AMORAL Democrat majority (they are not really Democrats in the classic Henry Jackson, Adlai Stevenson mode, but flaming HIV secular humanists, by the way) the same anti-Christian, anti-Bible bills will be re-introduced by Sen. Edward Kennedy (a premier montebank and witch-hunter despising the anti-abortion, pro-morality, pro-traditional marriage stands of his own Catholic Church upbringing by his mother Rose Kennedy while persecuting all that is still right and good in America) in the Senate and his party minions in the House under the gavil of Ms. Nancy Pelosi, who will try again--and no doubt succeed, unless President Bush vetoes it. They could possibly override his veto, and establish the same law that was passed in Canada, and in France, which makes it a crime to use scriptures in the Bible declaring homosexuality to be a sin in God's eyes. Anyone using those scriptures in the churches would lose the church's tax exempt status and also possibly be jailed and fined--as it will be treated as a capital crime. We will lose our precious religious liberty, the very liberty for which our nation was originally founded by the Pilgrims, Puritans, and over 200 Founding Fathers. Were can we go next? There is no place to escape to if we lose America--no where to find refuge and freedom unless God has mercy on us and takes us up in the Rapture.

To be under hate crime legislature means that we must all accept homosexuality being taught to school children as acceptable and a good choice by the children. This is what is proposed for be done in Israeli schools (which are also dominated by secular humanists) and in Britain as well. No Christian will be left alone in his or her corner or prayer closet. Either you accept and endorse it, or you will face stiff consequences. Perhaps we will lose our jobs if it is found that we do not accept homosexuality. The full ramifications of hate crime legislature are universal, and will completely revolutionize society and the churches. Those churches that will not accept and endorse homosexuality will be driven underground or fined and boarded up by the U.S. government. Schools and institutions and businesses too, that refuse the homosexual agenda, will be fined, shut down, and the owners and staffs arrested or at least fined. There is no end to the government repression unleased by hate crime legislation. We will be well on our way to a police state and the rule of anti-Christ, thanks to the secular-humanist triumph, which is supposedly all about "tolerance." It is not tolerance at all. It is mind-control and totalitarian oppression (with suppression of all dissenting opinion) that is the natural result of secular humanist agendas.

HOW CAN WORLD TERRORISM ORIGINATING IN THE ISLAMIC COMMUNITY BE IGNORED BY THE DEMOCRATS? 9/11 was completely dismissed by the Democratic leaders as irrelevant, as if it never happened! I have to wonder what goes on in the minds of Congressional legislators, who once were so close to being wiped out by a terrorist commandeered commercial jet (and would have been killed in a fiery cataclysm, if the Christian men on board had not bravely fought the terrorists who had taken over the plane over Pennsylvania) and stood on the steps of the Capitol singing, "God Bless America." How could they then go back in and work on legislation that would destroy America, joining the terrorists, in effect, if not philosophy? How could Democratic leaders in Congress after 9/11's close call at the Capital forget how they stood on the Capitol steps and sang "God Bless America," and then during President Bush's first term continually speak against morality and attack America's efforts to give Iraq the first free election in its thousand years or more of Islamic repression? How could these Democratic leaders vote for a war in Iraq then become turncoats denouncing it as the President's gambit while the Congressional Record shows they voted and even spoke for going into Iraq? Hypocrites! Their own speeches show conclusively they are conscience-seared reprobates. They cannot help lying, even when the lies are publicly exposed for what they are. Secure in their party machines and the fanatical support of their special interest, radical groups within the Democratic party, they hardly care what the record says about them and their shift from pro-Iraq war to anti-Iraq war.

FULL-BLOWN SECULAR HUMANISM THRIVES IN IGNORANCE LIKE HIV VIRUSES IN A PETRI DISH AND PREYS MOST EFFECTIVELY UPON THE IGNORANT. BUT WHERE THERE IS TRUTH AND FACT, SECULAR HUMANISM BEGINS TO WITHER AND DIE, WHEN ITS PRIMARY FOOD SOURCE, IGNORANCE AND PREJUDICE, ARE DENIED IT: Joyce Meyer's magazine, "Enjoying Everyday Life, December 2005, pages 7-8, carries David Barton's fine article, "Founding Fathers and Deism," which should settle the question on the side of truth and fact whether the Founding Fathers were Deists or not. They were not! IT IS THE MOST ASTOUNDING LIE OF THE CENTURY, TO CALL THEM DEISTS! Read this article if you can. You can go to Joyce Meyers Ministries on the Web or David Barton's website, or read the magazine article. He shows how Thomas Paine, Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, Alexander Hamilton, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, along with some 200 other Founding Fathers, were believers and followers of Jesus Christ, not Deists, according to the dictionary's definitions of Deism. Yet school children and university and college students are routinely told and instructed that the Founding Fathers, and particularly Franklin and Jefferson, were Deists. It is a bold lie--often used, because it is so effective and so little resisted. Why throw away a "good lie" when it does the job the secular humanists want done--make an entire generation think we had no Christian foundation for this nation.

SECULAR HUMANISTS CARE FAR MORE FOR ANIMALS AND THE ECOLOGY THAN THE LIVES AND WELFARE OF HUMAN BEINGS, EVEN INCLUDING CHILDREN: Evolution, as taught to students, demeans, degrades, and depreciates human life. We are being taught we are simply animals--yet at the same time "other" species of animals are somehow better and greater than our "species." See how deceptive and contradictory this thinking and teaching of Evolution is? It is obvious what the intent is--to depreciate human life and render it valueless--as you can see by the relative time spent in the daily tv news on the discovery of a nude body of a woman left by the roadside here in this liberal blue state of Washington, and a story right after that of the mistreatment of puppies by some owner. There was considerable outrage expressed by people interviewed, mostly about the puppies, not the dead woman being dumped. Ms. Bodine's death is being investigated, but no one is particularly upset--not like they are upset about the puppies. I recall once how people said they preferred a California girl being killed by sharks in a shark attack incident to the loss of animals' lives. The girl's death did not mean a fig to them--it was animals that mattered to these animal rights activists! Look for more of this--as human life is cheapened to zero by secular humanism and animals are exalted to the status of human beings. Even now animals are being said to be equal to human beings. This is the madness of secular humanism, which denies the Bible and the ruling of God that put all animals under the dominion and sovereignty of Adam and his descendants.

AFTER WATCHING NUMEROUS UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON ACADEMICS ON TELEVISION EXPOSE THEIR OWN IGNORANCE AND PREJUDICE IN LIEU OF EDUCATING THEIR STUDENTS (AND WE TAX-PAYERS FOOT THE BILL FOR THIS EDUCATIONAL FARCE!), IT IS CLEAR THAT EXTREMELY THICK, LOW BROWS OF NEO-NEANDERTALS PREDOMINATE TODAY IN EDUCATIONAL CIRCLES, DESPITE ALL THE HYPE AND ROBES AND IMPRESSIVE-SOUNDING CREDENTIALS: Rev. Cotton Mather, a Puritan clergyman, was undoubtedly a greater mind, a greater scholar, a greater theologian, a greater thinker, than most anyone you can name today that is known for such qualities and qualifications. He wrote something like 450 books! The kind of thinking the Puritans did was evidenced by yet another Puritan Great, Rev. Jonathan Edwards, which not even the secular-humanist textbooks dare ignore. His sermons ignited, according to observers, the Great Awakening. Now these "inflammatory" sermons were actually highly theological treatises based on scriptures that took hours to deliver by Pastor Edwards to his congregaton, as he READ every word to them. Imagine such a practice today? The people would be out of that church in five minutes! They simply could not bear the spiritual and intellectual exercise demanded by every sentence of his sermon! Yet the congregations under him were visibly, profoundly shaken to the core, and uncountable individuals of the most self-righteous or sin-hardened types broke in tears and begged God for mercy! Whole communities were turned right side up--and transformed. Young people flooded back to church, to take part in a living faith that was showing it was a vital part of life instead of just a motheaten creed to be mindlessly mumbled Sunday after Sunday. Cotton Mather--Jonathan Edwards--where are such outspoken men of God, such giant intellects and giant spirits, today? America has three hundred million people, and hundreds of thousands of churches and pulpits, but I bet you can name only a handful of preachers or evangelists of the caliber of Cotton Mather and Jonathan Edwards--who were Puritans--most unfairly despised and discredited now by secular humanists in the colleges and universities and even the public schools as the perpetrators of the infamous witch trails (as if all the Puritans were involved in these fanatical trials and deserved the same tarring!). Did they ever explain that witch hunting was a favorite European recreation--had been such for centuries--thanks to the supersition of the Middle Ages perpretrated by ignorance of the Bible and the abuses of the corrupt, secularized Roman Catholic clergy? It was inevitable that some of that supersitition slopped over into the Colonies--but this one instance is not a whole culture--it didn't happen anywhere else in the Colonies--and couldn't. The Puritans were, for the most part, honest, worthy, god-fearing people until they started caring more for this world than the next. God respected the covenants made with Him by the forefathers of these Puritans, and raised up "deliverers" from cermemonial, creedal religiosity. These men transformed an America turning cold in heart toward the Gospel and righteousness. God send such brave, Bible-believing men and women today! Then we will be saved and escape a destruction we richly deserve, just as once the world's greatest luxury liner packed with the cream of Edwardian society and owned by a godless man worshiping prestige, wealth and power speeded full steam ahead toward God's unheeded judgment...

"Joan Baez, a Silhouette," Review of her 1987 autobiography, with a contrast of Joan Baez to Lilias Trotter, Missionary to Algeria, by Ronald Ginther


A SEA ROUTE TO EGYPT WAS TAKEN BY JOSEPH AND MARY FLEEING KING HEROD? On a lighter note, did you ever guess that Joseph might have taken Mary and the boy Jesus to Egypt on a boat instead of trying to escape from Herod using the land route (which he easily could capture them on, sending out soldiers and spies to intercept every caravan or travellers from Judaea)? I have to think that the sea route was not only safer but quicker. They wouldn't be able to take much with them even on a boat, but they could take the wise men's gifts, which would provide funds for their stay in Egypt until they could safely return after the old king's expected death. But you decide. It will show at least that the Bible contains mysteries. The Bible did not say in the scriptures how they made it to Egypt, it just says they went there and returned from there. You decide whether it was by land or sea, or both? They might have gone there by sea, sailing from Joppa, returning later by caravan route on land, or they might have used the sea route both times? You decide. Perhaps someone who has a writer's gift can write up the story! It would make very interesting reading, even if we cannot be sure just what happened.

Just when the world scene seems it could not get more bleak, the Lord gives evidences of his grace and mercy right in our midst--or at least in Maryland on the beach! Enjoy these sand sculptures of Jesus by the beach artist and evangelist, Chuck Ritchey Sr.:
