God

I sat happily, in my turkey induced sedation, with a toasty fire warming my face; slipping in and out of consciousness watching the 24 hour Christmas Story marathon. I am, as many Christian Americans are, oblivious to the struggle of our brethren . In China, host of the 2008 Olympics, ten women in Yucheng county were escorted to jail for reenacting the nativity scene. Unlike our country, where the Christian religion is merely mocked by pseudo-enlightened liberals, China’s treatment of the Lord’s children is brutal and painfully severe.

At 5:00 pm on December 22nd, officials raided the Sheppard Fellowships bible training class, with 10 uniformed officers. Without a search warrant, police seized bibles and other religious objects that might be construed as illegal propaganda. Along with the arrest of the 10 women, police recorded information that might implicate any of the other criminals connected with this religious conspiracy. (Big Government=Absolute Power=Christian Subjugation)

While most of us in America were loosening our belts for the traditional Christmas feast, securely wrapping up our X-Boxes from Santa; the maltreated masses suffer under the foot of  tyrannical governments intent on silencing their faith.

Proverbs 28:1 says..” The wicked man flees though no one pursues,
but the righteous are as bold as a lion.”

I have a different opinion from you, however, I'll show you respect if you do the same for me. I am in fact a Christian, but I find that prayer and reading te Bible is just generating more questions. I've prayed for the Holy Spirit to guide me,and it's told me that there's something wrong with how unaccepting we can be. How judgemental and harsh we can be when we ourselves are just as bad and undeserving of the forgiveness we are given. Anyway, here are just a few questions that I've come up with:

When I ponder the results of this election. I am horrified at the similarities with the words found in 1 Samuel chapter 8. Despite warnings from God's man, the people demanded a king so that they could be like everyone else. Well, the mob gathered on Tuesday demanding a king to rule over them. Despite warnings from God's prophets of today, they demanded and were granted their king. What happens now is in God's hands. 2 Chronicles 7:14 declares our only hope. It is time now for God's people to humble themselves, and seek God in prayer for divine intervention. My greatest fear is that the voices of countless millions more of unborn, aborted babies will cry out for rescue, but their little voices will go unheard. The deviant sexual appetite of men will be unrestrained and traditional marriage will be erased from the landscape. Ultr-Liberal Supreme Court judges will legislate a godless agenda from the bench, and the will of the majority will not be heard. Our Christian heritage that is the foundation of this great nation will be diminished and marginalized as never before. God awaken His church. God have mercy on us, and please heal this land.
