America...America God shed his grace on thee? There is compromise in our CHURCHES, in our GOVERNMENTS, in our FAMILIES and HOMES, and now even within the Laws that we are making. We are molding the character of our children with our own compromise and desires to that of Noah's Day?
THE character of the people in the time of Noah before the flood as given by the pen of inspiration is explicit. And God said, "My Spirit shall not always strive with man for that he also is flesh. And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. Noah's day was filled with the intense worldliness of the inhabitants of the earth. The people were eating and drinking, planting and building, marrying and giving in marriage, not that these things were of themselves such sins, but they were, although lawful in themselves, carried to a high degree of intemperance. The desire of the people was indulged at the expense of health and reason. This constant indulgence of their sinful desires corrupted them and defiled the earth under them. Sound familar? The same evils intensified exist in our world to day. Men are blind to reason and the result of indulging perverted appetite of compromise to how they see it, their way, their pleasures, self. As in Noah's day, philosophers and men of science, those who make and administrate the laws, are changing them according to how they see, and trying to pull 'God's Moral government down to their level as they see nature's laws but cannot carry their wisdom higher and see beyond these laws nature's Lawgiver...GOD. Wise worldly men seek to practically reason out or theorize in regard to nature without taking the God of nature into the account. Many will resist God's warnings and array themselves against his law because their sinful life cannot harmonize with the pure principles of God's moral government. They consider it too hard work to reform their lives, therefore they endeavor to make the law of God meet their low standard of morals. The world is the god of nine tenths of professed Christians. What then are the Children of today are in search of ? They are turning away from God as we have allowed such a compromise to fall around us. I am not speaking of Freedom, or choice of Religion, I am speaking of a once Nation unde God..... And what we are falling upon is a real DANGER! The alarm has sounded..do we hear it? The anything Goes seems to be our attitude? "...the number of Protestants soon will slip below 50 percent of the nation's population." National Opinion Research Center's General Social Survey, 2004.
The Occult promotes sex. Wicca is a occultic religion, likewise it promotes a 'self' image. The circle leads from the occult to sex, which leads to violence, and a decay in morals and values. IT is by our own CHOICE! Young people follow examples of society and adults, so likewise it is a great danger to our children when we support these actions in the media, books, movies, television and in public.The National Association for Research and Therapy of Homosexuality (NARTH) released the results of a two-year study this week in conjunction with its annual meeting of licensed psychologists and psychotherapists, social workers, family counselors, clergy and related professionals. The study was conducted among nearly 860 individuals struggling to overcome homosexuality and more than 200 psychologists and therapists who treat them. The survey was sponsored by NARTH; its data was tabulated by professionals at Brigham Young University. "This research proves, once and for all, that the propaganda being spread by the gay lobby in this country has been without any basis in fact, and I suspect they've known it all along," said Dr. Joseph Nicolosi, a psychologist and executive director of NARTH. "We should stop telling young people and others struggling with homosexuality that they're stuck with it. Instead we should say, 'If you want to change, you can, like so many others who have.'" Yes it is freedom...like a right to carry fire arms but within that freedom comes responsiblity, especially to our children. And that is another issue all by itself. The clear and present danger is how our children are being swept away by certain groups that basically says: anything goes!. Below is a chart showing what Wicca beliefs and views about sex.
Take away the Bible and take the views of the World into compromise and will lead us into a spiral out of control. From the occult, the wheel moves into sexual, and then into violence as these principles and morals decay our Families, our government, our churches. Respect is gone, and a anything goes attitude becomes more clear and present.

Why? Gen 3:4 And the serpent said to the woman: No, you shall not die the death [the first lie]. You will know them by their fruits? It is us, as adults that teach and train our children. SO who is to blame? | |
From sea to shinning sea, One nation under God? Are we a humble people? Do we seek God's face? Are our ways wicked? Has our land become a land of prosperity? THERE is a Condition of those who call themselves His People....One Nation Under God? The time we live in is just the beginning of what is to come for we have replaced God with pride in ourselves, and our leaders. When it all is as simple as a nation from our leaders down to get on their knees and ask God for forgiveness to our nation and
CHANGE...........then and only then will the difference come.
What makes Barbie so adorable? Here are some of the reasons.
Mirror of the times
Barbies have been around for centuries and it defined the style, fashion and look of the year it was made. Like people and culture, it is also evolving, showing the current fad and the current way of thinking of that generation. Barbies dolls tell history in its own right.
If one would only take time to look at the video games today, the books that our kids read in school, the toys we purchase and allow our children to play with promoting sex and tattos, one doll even says " Islam is light". Yes thats right. I addressed a complaint to the manufactuer and they wrote me back explaining that it was a programing problem and they were correcting it. Ok, but was it done intentionally? Who can a company go into production with such toys, especially a major world toy manufactuer? But then lets look at each one of us. We allowed prayer to be removed from school? Why was this so wrong? Children were given choices, they did'nt have to pray. It seems to me that our society was by far in less greater danger then today. Children learned respect, and our country walked our talk....One nation under God.
Now our government saying that there is no place for the 10 commandments to be posted in public buildings, the family is being destroyed. We as a people say, ok marriage between a man and a man, or a woman and a woman is ok and acceptable, and justify this by even using scripture, compromise, to suit our own desires and pleasure. The attitudes of "You got to do what's best for you" and the list goes on and on. Rather than standing firm upon our founding fathers "One nation under God" we have replaced such a foundation that today we see it starting to tumble like building upon the sands of time.
Whats next? Same sex dolls packed in pairs? Or abortion dolls? Alcohol dolls the light of the party? Witch dolls? Sorry we already have them including all the acessories. How can we say yes to one and no to another. You see friends we have pulled God's standards down to us on our level how we see them, rather than Reaching up to God's standards simply that we have learned to do it our way, compromise for us rather than becoming Christ like and religious walking in the truth of his Word. Yes little by little we allow these little foxes to spoil the goods....our children!
A Word about Tattos and body piercings. "Do not cut your bodies for the dead or put tattoo marks on yourselves. I am the LORD." Leviticus 19:28. Tattoos were used extensively by the other nations for pagan worship, decoration, and to mark a slave. Based on Leviticus 19:28, tattoos are still forbidden among Jews today (by both Orthodox, Conservative, and Reformed Judaism). There is even one rabbinic text prohibiting the burial of bodies with tattoos. Nothing in what that is being said here is meant to imply any disapproval against those who come to Christ with tattoos, cuttings, or piercings. We come to Jesus just as we are and that is with all our imperfections in spirit and body. The point is that when we purchase these items for our children to play with they then think it is acceptable because parents allow such. CHILDREN learn by example. There are many people in our church who have tattoos and scars from their previous life before Christ. Some of these tattoos are even pagan or demonic. Some of the cuttings are from suicide attempts. No one looks down on these brothers or sisters or judges them. We are all flawed sinners. That is why we need Jesus. Some of us bear our markings outwardly. Some of us bear them more inwardly. People today even Christian say just as they think we are not to obey the 10 Commandments that was Old Testimate teaching and law. But let's ask, "Do the Old Testament verses line up with any basic principle found in the New Testament?" The answer is "yes." There is the New Testament concept that our bodies are not our own. This teaching is found specifically in 1 Corinthians 6:12-20:
-
"The body is meant for the Lord" 1 Corinthians 6:13.
-
"Your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit." 1 Corinthians 6:19.
-
"You are not your own; you were bought at a price." 1 Corinthians 6:19.
-
"Honor God with your body." 1 Corinthians 6:20.
I played a wedding and the bride and grown were asked to pray the Lords Prayer...guess what...they did'nt know it. The minister had to copy it and place it beneath the altar glass so when they knelt they could read it. Seems to me even when our new elected President was being sworn in, the minister recited the Lords prayer and the camera's went around as people also recited it, but to my memory, he did not? Just what is happening not just in our country, but around the world. Yes there is change, but in that change we are leaving our foundation and charting into water's of compromise. Why is it our children are losing respect, in school, for law enforcement, parents, seniors, even their own bodies? Just think about it. If you go back to the 50's the change started, little by little, drop by drop, the examples that we were lead by over the past years, are being replaced by Heroe's of a difference sort. You would think that our country founded upon Christian principles would lead the world. Now in the past three years, religion is not important. We have replaced that example of being humble to one of pride and wealth.
In 2006, 2007, and 2008, Gallup asked representative samples in 143 countries and territories whether religion was an important part of their daily lives. The accompanying map shows religiosity by country, ranging from the least religious to the most religious on a relative basis. Given the concerns about the influence of religion in American life and politics, you might have expected the US to be up there among the most religious countries. In fact this isn't the case - because the importance of religion in a society is related to a large degree to that society's level of affluence. The poll taken by Gallup indicates that residents in richer countries tend to rank religion as less important.
According to the poll the proportion of residents in the US who say religion is important is around the 65% mark. By contrast 8 of the 11 countries in which almost all residents (at least 98%) say religion is important in their daily lives are poorer nations in sub-Saharan Africa and Asia.
The poll has a state-to-state breakdown ranking the importance of religion in resident's lives. Mississippi places high importance on religion at 85%, whereas Vermont at 42% suggests residents view religion as less important.
Countries with highest standard of living such as Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Hong Kong and Japan rank as the least religious.
LESS RELIGIOUS.....The United States of America...One nation under God?
