The good news is that I will have something new to blog about soon. :)
Marriage is between one man and one woman with a commitment to endure for a life-time and God is the head of this marriage.
I Peter 3:7 Husbands, in the same way, treat your wives with consideration as the weaker partnersand show them honor as fellow heirs of the grace of life. In this way nothing will hinder your prayers.
Choosing to be Pro-Life is a choice, and choosing to be Pro-Death is a sentence to end life.
Psalms 127:3 Yes, sons are a gift from the Lord, the fruit of the womb is a reward.
Exodus 20:13 “You shall not murder.

Matthew 22:19-21 22:19 Show me the coin used for the tax.” So they brought him a denarius. 22:20 Jesus said to them, “Whose imageis this, and whose inscription?” 22:21 They replied,“Caesar’s.” He said to them, “Then give to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.”
Obey the government in so far as it honors the king (or Uncle Sam), but do not forsake your own faith in God and his ultimate laws.
Romans 13:1 Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except by God’s appointment, and the authorities that exist have been instituted by God.
I King 2:3 Do the job the Lord your God has assigned you by following his instructionsand obeying his rules, commandments, regulations, and laws as written in the law of Moses. Then you will succeed in all you do and seek to accomplish,
Matthew 6:19-20 6:19 Do not accumulate for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal 6:20 But accumulate for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and thieves do not break in and steal. 6:21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
Matthew 6:33 But above all pursue his kingdom and righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Everyone has the right to confess their sins, repent, and choose eternal life. This ensures eternal liberty and solidifies eternal peace of one’s soul.
I John 1:9 But if we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous, forgiving us our sins and cleansing.
Romans 10:9-10 10:9because if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10:10 For with the heart one believes and thus has righteousness and with the mouth one confesses and thus has salvation. Romans 10:13 For everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.
God supported the nations who stood up for His precepts and who fought those nations that chose to disobey them. That is what God expects of great nations like America.
Matthew 7:13-14 7:13 “Enter through the narrow gate, because the gate is wide and the way is spacious that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. 7:14 But the gate is narrow and the way is difficult that leads to life, and there are few who find it.
Matthew 10:28 Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Instead, fear the one who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
Matthew 10:34 “Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I have not come to bring peace but a sword.
The long term solution to America is placing our trust in the one, true God from where our roots began.
Joshua 24:15 If you have no desire to worship the Lord, choose today whom you will worship, whether it be the gods whom your ancestors worshiped beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living. But I and my family will worship the Lord!” Proverbs 3:5-6 3:5Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not rely on your own understanding. 3:6 Acknowledge him in all your ways, and he will make your paths straight.
English is the language of America. God chose the Tower of Babel to confuse because the people were not focused on him. Focus on one language for one purpose and on the only God for worship.
Genesis 11:6-9 11:6 And the Lord said, “If as one people all sharing a common language they have begun to do this, then1 nothing they plan to do will be beyond them. 11:7 Come, let’s go down and confuse their language so they won’t be able to understand each other.” 11:8 So the Lord scattered them from there across the face of the entire earth, and they stopped building the city. 11:9 That is why its name was called Babel – because there the Lord confused the language of the entire world, and from there the Lord scattered them across the face of the entire earth.
Deuteronomy 4:9 Again, however, pay very careful attention, lest you forget the things you have seen and disregard them for the rest of your life; instead teach them to your children and grandchildren.
Matthew 7:13-14 7:13 Enter through the narrow gate, because the gate is wide and the way is spacious that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. 7:14 But the gate is narrow and the way is difficult that leads to life, and there are few who find it.
Genesis 1:26 Then God said, “Let us make humankind in our image, after our likeness, so they may rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move on the earth.”
God firmly instructed the Israelites to keep their business within their own clan, tribe or nation. Perhaps, a hint for America to best utilize our resources?
Joshua 1:14-15 1:14 Your wives, children and cattle may stay in the land that Moses assigned to you east of the Jordan River. But all you warriors must cross over armed for battle ahead of your brothers. You must help them 1:15 until the Lord gives your brothers a place like yours to settle and they conquer the land the Lord your God is ready to hand over to them. Then you may go back to your allotted land and occupy the land Moses the Lord’s servant assigned you east of the Jordan.
The First Amendment forbids government from making laws that infringe on religion. It does not remove religion from anything under the government.
Deuteronomy 29:10-15 29:10 You are standing today, all of you, before the Lord your God – the heads of your tribes, your elders, your officials, every Israelite man, 29:11 your infants, your wives, and the foreigners living in your encampment, those who chop wood and those who carry water – 29:12 so that you may enter by oath into the covenant the Lord your God is making with you today. 29:13 Today he will affirm that you are his people and that he is your God, just as he promised you and as he swore by oath to your ancestors Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. 29:14 It is not with you alone that I am making this covenant by oath, 29:15 but with whoever stands with us here today before the Lord our God as well as those not with us here today.
We reject the banning of prayer.
I Peter 3:12 For the eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous and his ears are open to their prayer. But the Lord’s face is against those who do evil. [Italics are from translation used-see below]
We need to take terrorist threats more seriously and take steps to eliminate those who are intent on carrying out such acts. God will honor our efforts to defend our families and to save our land, of which we proclaim “in God we trust.”
Joshua 1:13 Remember what Moses the Lord’s servant commanded you. The Lord your God is giving you a place to settle and is handing this land over to you.
In God We Trust. Laus Deo.
Psalms 2:8 Ask me, and I will give you the nations as your inheritance, the ends of the earth as your personal property.
Psalms 8
8:1 O Lord, our Lord, how magnificent is your reputation throughout the earth! You reveal your majesty in the heavens above! 8:2 From the mouths of children and nursing babies you have ordained praise on account of your adversaries, so that you might put an end to the vindictive enemy. 8:3 When I look up at the heavens, which your fingers made, and see the moon and the stars, which you set in place, 8:4 Of what importance is the human race, that you should notice them? Of what importance is mankind,that you should pay attention to them, 8:5 and make them a little less than the heavenly beings? You grant mankindhonor and majesty;8:6 you appoint them to rule over your creation; you have placed everything under their authority, 8:7 including all the sheep and cattle, as well as the wild animals, 8:8 the birds in the sky, the fish in the sea and everything that moves through the currents of the seas. 8:9 O Lord, our Lord, how magnificent is your reputation throughout the earth!
