All of a sudden, it’s pedal-to-the-metal, full-speed-ahead, no-holds-barred promotion of homosexuality everywhere you turn. It is as if someone said, okay, now is the time to launch our all-out assault on traditional principles and values; while crushing all opposition. I cannot even enjoy a non-political Saturday watching do-it-yourself home improvement …
On Tuesday (April 29, 2015), the Supreme Court heard oral arguments in the case to determine whether the Constitution requires states to issue same-sex marriage licenses and requires other states to honor same-sex marriages performed in those states. A primary argument by the plaintiffs is that gay marriage is covered …
The National Black Church Initiative (NBCI), a faith-based coalition of 34,000 churches comprised of 15 denominations and 15.7 million African-Americans, has broken its fellowship with Presbyterian Church USA (PCUSA) following its recent vote to approve same-sex marriage. The Presbyterian General Assembly, the top legislative body of the PCUSA, voted last …
“If Jesus had been killed twenty years ago, Catholic school children would be wearing little electric chairs around their necks instead of crosses.” ― Lenny Bruce If you buy into the version of Christianity Lite peddled by evangelical leaders such as Franklin Graham, who recently advised Americans to do as …
Cake hasn’t been an historical pivot point since Marie Antoinette made that famous dietary suggestion, but it seems to be back. Christians who earn their livings in any way associated with wedding cakes face extinction; the gay-marriage brigade is out to make an example of them and liberal judges are …
A few years ago, while visiting family in Maryland, I attended church with my brother. It was a very hip contemporary church. The pastor, who looked in his early forties, wore a shirt and jeans. I saw a parishioner with a Mohawk haircut and others with tattoos. This is not …
This article offers a compassionate understanding of the contributing factors to a homosexual orientation without sacrificing the biblical position that acting on such feelings is sin. Question: Some people say homosexuality is natural and moral; others say it is unnatural and immoral. How do we know? Answer: Our standard can …
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit upheld gay marriage bans in Michigan, Ohio, Kentucky, and Tennessee, setting the stage for what could be a Supreme Court showdown that could make the practice legal in all 50 states. The 2-1 decision was the first legal setback for gay …
My name is Rivka Edelman, and I am the product of same-sex parenting. Recently I published an essay on Public Discourse about the ruthless misogyny that pervades LBGT culture. I pointed out it that it can and will victimize women and children with impunity and then, in America’s narcissistic fugue, get …
Bakers, photographers and florists are being forced to shut down their businesses unless they accede to demands that they join in the celebration of gay “marriages,” but so far no one has faced jail time for putting commitment to the Word of God ahead of the demands of homosexuals and …
If you dare oppose the gay agenda, you will be destroyed. Progression of the gay agenda will only become more intrusive, more tyrannical, and more Orwellian. To Christians, homosexuality is an unacceptable behavior to God, as well as to Christ’s Flock. Since the dawn of the Christian Church a couple …
In late 2010, Congress used a lame-duck session — after the November elections — to overturn “Don’t Ask Don’t Tell”, the de facto ban on open homosexual behavior in the US military. Even prominent Republicans caved in. US Senator Scott Brown not only voted for it but bragged about voting …
“Children are being beheaded, mothers are being raped and killed, and fathers are being hung and crucified. Entire Christian and non-Muslim communities are being decimated by the radical Muslim group, ISIS.” These are the words from reporters out of Iraq. What is our obligation to those under fire from Islamic …
Question: “How does a same-sex ‘marriage’ threaten your marriage?” Answer: • We’re not just talking about one marriage…the cost of redefining marriage for a nation of more than 300 million people means drastic and potentially irreversible consequences for the future of marriage, family, and child-raising. • Marriage is not “all …
”Freedom prospers when religion is vibrant and the rule of law under God is acknowledged. When our Founding Fathers passed the First Amendment, they sought to protect churches from government interference. They never intended to construct a wall of hostility between government and the concept of religious belief itself. … To those who cite the First Amendment as reason for excluding God from more and more of our institutions every day, I say: The First Amendment of the Constitution was not written to protect the people of this country from religious values; it was written to protect religious values from government tyranny.” ― President Ronald Reagan
“Our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate for the government of any other.” – President John Adams
“The rights of man come not from the generosity of the state but from the hand of God.” – John F. Kennedy
“Education is useless without the Bible. The Bible was America’s basic text book in all fields. God’s Word, contained in the Bible, has furnished all necessary rules to direct our conduct.” – Noah Webster
”The only means of establishing and perpetuating our republican forms of government is the universal education of our youth in the principles of Christianity by means of the Bible.” – Benjamin Rush
“Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable.” – George Washington
“The Bible is the rock on which our Republic rests.” – President Andrew Jackson
“In regard to this Great Book, I have but to say, it is the best gift God has given to man. All the good the Savior gave to the world was communicated through this book. But for it we could not know right from wrong. All things most desirable for man’s welfare, here and hereafter, are to be found portrayed in it. – President Abraham Lincoln
“For my own part, I sincerely esteem it [the Constitution] a system which without the finger of God, never could have been suggested and agreed upon by such a diversity of interests.” – Alexander Hamilton
“Those people who will not be governed by God will be ruled by tyrants.” ― William Penn
“We have this day [Fourth of July] restored the Sovereign to whom all men ought to be obedient. He reigns in Heaven, and from the rising to the setting of the sun, let His Kingdom come.” – Samual Adams
“God who gave us life gave us liberty. Can the liberties of a nation be secure when we have removed a conviction that these liberties are the gift of God? Indeed I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just, that His justice cannot sleep forever.” – President Thomas Jefferson
”Without God there could be no American form of government, nor an American way of life. Recognition of the Supreme Being is the first, the most basic, expression of Americanism. Thus, the founding fathers of America saw it, and thus with God’s help, it will continue to be.” – President Dwight D. Eisenhower
“The way liberals are interpreting the First Amendment today is that it prevents anyone who is religious from being in government.” ― Rush Limbaugh
”I believe that the next half century will determine if we will advance the cause of Christian civilization or revert to the horrors of brutal paganism.” – President Theodore Roosevelt
“The foundations of our society and our government rest so much on the teachings of the Bible that it would be difficult to support them if faith in these teachings would cease to be practically universal in our country.” – President Calvin Coolidge
“Once abolish the God and the government becomes the God.” ― G.K. Chesterton
“I will raise my voice as long as God gives me sound or ability, against this Communistic idea that the Government will take care of us all, and everything belongs to the government. It is wrong!” ― David O. McKay
“For years we’ve been telling God to get out of our schools, to get out of our
government and to get out of our lives. And being the gentleman He is, I believe
He has calmly backed out. How can we expect God to give us His blessing and His
protection if we demand He leave us alone?” ― Anne Graham
“I have lived, a long time, and the longer I live, the more convincing proofs I see of this truth — that God Governs in the affairs of men. And if a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without His notice, is it probable that an empire can rise without His aid.” – Benjamin Franklin
“Rights are either God-given as part of the divine plan, or they are granted by
government as part of the political plan. If we accept the premise that human
rights are granted by government, then we must be willing to accept the
corollary that they can be denied by government.” ― Ezra Taft Benson
“We should remember that the Declaration of Independence is not merely a
historical document. It is an explicit recognition that our rights derive not
from the King of England, not from the judiciary, not from government at all,
but from God. The keystone of our system of popular sovereignty is the
recognition, as the Declaration acknowledges, that ’all men are created equal’
and ’endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights.’ Religion and God
are no alien to our system of government, they’re integral to it.” ― Mark R.
Levin
“America is ensnared in self-indulgence and its future hangs in the balance. Our moral and spiritual foundations are rapidly being destroyed. Our arrogance is producing a socialist state that is becoming our god. The entitlement state of mind has created a nation that looks to the government for the answer to our problems, when the only answer is, “Our Father which art in heaven.” ― John Hagee
“The Limit of this obligation to obedience [to the civil government] will be found only when we are commanded to do something contrary to the superior authority of God (Acts iv. 19; v. 29); or when the civil government has become so radically and incurably corrupt that it has ceased to accomplish the ends for which it was established. When that point has unquestionably been reached, when all means of redress have been exhausted without avail, when there appears no prospect of securing reform in the government itself, and some good prospect of securing it by revolution, then it is the privilege and duty of a Christian people to change their government – peacefully if they may, forcibly if they must.” ― Archibald Alexander Hodge
“If there is no final place for civil disobedience, then the government has been made autonomous, and as such, it has been put in the place of the living God.” ― Francis August Schaeffer
“The fundamental basis of this nation’s laws was given to Moses on the Mount…If we don’t have a proper fundamental moral background, we will finally end up with a totalitarian government which does not believe in rights for anybody except the State.” ― President Harry S. Truman
“Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death.” – Patrick Henry
