Predictable

That would be the word that I would use to describe that last election. The American people are so predictable. Just like in times in the past there was a pretty large section of the US that didn't like the views, backbone and policies of George W. Bush. But the major factor was that we had just dived into the recession nose first...our business policies done be banks were not the most upfront that they should be so out housing industry suffered causing lay offs and thousands of foreclosures. As in the past, the current president is blamed for everything...so, the answer, let's get rid of as many republicans as possible..this is not a new policy. This has been lived out before several times in our history...one time that stands out to me is the power change between Hoover and FDR. Yeah bug switch from republican to democrat there too.

The hero that we elected as president was Obama. Although totally inexperienced, the history making possibilities of electing our first black president was such a glimmer in our eyes was that that possibility totally blinded us to his experience. Now after only 2 years of him holding office we find, even in the public, liberal media, that he is very ignorant when comes to leading people and negotiating.

So with this last election, the unhappiness with the president's performance and the economy still not fully recovered we vote in yet another change...yep, we changed out minds back to the republicans.

Now, these republicans have looked at the past mistakes of their party and trying to learn from it...as the matter of fact the party is trying to reinvent itself by going back to it's core values. The reinvent if the party is called the tea party movement. The hero of this movement so far...Sara Palin. Does she deserve all the praise given to her...that remains to be seen.

However, what is seen is that this power movement in congress from democrat to republican is not a surprise...it has been and will be predicted and relived several times...but for the time being after the first of the year, welcome back republicans! Time to get to work!

Shake it UP!

Remember when Obama and His posse' got elected. It was going to be revolutionary! It was going to reminiscent of FDR and His cabinet that passed His every whim.

hm.........I doubt it.

Actually, although the democrats have had a majority in both houses, the revolutionary change promised in Government and it's bureaucracy has not happened...It's still the wild uncontrollable machine that you have to give and take in order to succeed.

The democrats expected this unexperienced man to lead America in an age of revolution led by the highest authority in the land. However, they forgot one minor or should I say major upset....He had no experience as a leader and not only that, but also, didn't now seem to have a leadership bone in his body.

Well, that secret is out...The republicans not only feel strength by the outcome of the last election, but by the compromise prone president.

Now, the trick for the republicans is for them to keep any major legislation from passing before Christmas break. However, this is often easier said that done, because the democrats will be trying to pass anything as fast as possible with its lameducks still in office...with their terms coming to an end, they have nothing to be afraid of.

Our prayer as Christians should be to pray that the only legislation that is passed is that which God wants to be passed... and then pray for the wise decision of our current representatives and those coming into office.

Earthquake?

Along with all the earthquakes going on in the world. There's an
earthquake going on in my life. What an earthquake... Really, it came
from the recent earthquake in Turkey. I started thinking about those
around me.. The people that I work with everyday, and then it hit me.
I did not expect it. What if an earthquake hit my work and the people
died! The thought startled me...

There, I woke up! I woke up out of my stupor of selfishness. No. I
wasn't doing anything deadly wrong...no awful sins. Just a simple case
of infatuation with myself. With life. With work. With money. With MY
future. With...well... With me!

But then there was the earthquake. The earthquake that awoke me to
myself. As the prodigal came to himself in a foreign land, I came to
myself in my foreign land of selfishness. It was time to run back to
the Father, but not to sulk or ask forgiveness 1000 times, although i
did ask forgiveness, but to work side by side or side inside with Him
in His mission to tell people of His live for them.

If there was an earthquake at work, would they go to heaven??? That's
the question. And am I leading them there?? Or if it came up would I
be ashamed of who I say I am at school?? Good questions, huh? And they
all deserved answers.

However, I knew what my answer was. I want to reach them. I want my
life to preach truth. I want to tell them of Christ's great love for
them!

So what in the world does this have to do with politics? Well, this is
the left out part in politics. This very conversation is conveniently
avoided in most talk about politics. Christianity unashamed. Living
the gospel unhindered. No apologizing for the truth. Time to connect
our Christianity with our politics. Time for Jesus Christ not to be a
side order but our dinner of life.

Time to live like there will be an earthquake tomorrow.

ZoMbIe

It is very important how they will turn out. They must react to the
right words. Our zombie must know who is it's master. It would be
nothing without me. The zombie must react and go for the right causes.
Everything that I have trained this Zombie from it's conception, it
must follow.

What is it that I am talking about? Did I get really excited about
the book of Frankenstein. NO!

I've been reading a book called "Vindicating the Founders." This book
defends the founders and why they did what they did. Kind of sad that
there is a sect of people (a lot of times it feels like a big sect)
that say that the founders are hypocrites. Well, this book (obvious
by the title) is a defense of the founders and why did and believed
what they did. In this book, I was reading of the defense of the
rights of property that the founders enacted (this is a long lengthy
discussion that would bore you to tears).

But in this dissertation about property and property rights, the
author talks about liberals. Many times in college, the professors
really stress that the founders were called liberals back in their
day, and indeed they were. However, think of the principles that they
were fighting for. If they knew that the name liberal would mean what
it means today with abortion and gay rights, they would not have
wasted a breath calling themselves that.

Well, this section in "Vindicating the founders" was drawing the
difference between old and new liberals. There really is a
distinction between the 2. John Dewey came up with this distinction.
He said that man has no inherit gifts. In other words man is not good
at anything by himself. No one is naturally good at music, math,
english, or speaking. These are things that are cultivated and made
inside a person. This is done more by environment than God giving it
to a person. He believes that because of this and in order to make a
perfect human being or society that Governments need to be a welfare
state from the cradle to the grave. In other words, The government is
in control of a person born in the country from the time that it is
born until the person dies. That person becomes a product of the
government. THe government cultivates inside that person who they
want that person to be. this reminds me of all those sci-fi movies
and books that talk of a perfect society where all identity is lost.
(west, vindicating)

Not only that. Where is God in all of this???? Where is the room for
God to be the creator, savior and boss of someone's life???? In this
nation, there is no natural or divine standards leading mankind in the
right way as West says in his book.

Listen to this! This is what is guiding the liberals of today. NO
room for God???? We have all ready seen this become a great plague in
the US with Christians being to afraid to stand up for God or what's
right!

If you look closely at the beliefs of this liberal movement, you can
see where a lot of the ideas for liberals today come from today.

So be aware! make sure you know what you are voting for and
supporting. Is it supporting your savior?

On a side note, John Dewey was one of the creators and supporters of
Public education. Kind of makes sense with what he believed with the
cradle to the grave society. And remember his vision was to create
and mold a people into what the government thinks they should be. Hm,
what an interesting note....

Shhhhhhh!!!!!

The president is sleeping. Although Mr. Obama is not done with his
first 100 days, he's all ready complaining that he's tired?!?!?!?!
Although I do not envy his job, I am not sure about what He thought
that the job of The president of the usa entailed. I mean, running one
of the most important nations in the world was not going to be a piece
of cake. I mean you are trying to take care of a nation of like three
hundred million people and trying to even out the wants of 2 very
opposite sides. Not the easiest thing in the whole world. So President
Obama you better get energized or find something (morally right) to
rev of your energy or you are going to have a very long presidency.
God bless you President Obama. I pray for you, and you are definitely
going to need it.

Don't you feel stimulated

So, Mr. Obama has come up with a plan.  A plan that will save the world and your marriage. What? Are you saying that I am being sarcastic...Well, I am.  This stimulus plan is ridiculous.  I mean, here we are with an 800 billion dollar bill that we have to pay.  a bill for a repair that we don't know will actually fix the problem.  God help us all.  God I do pray that this miraculous bill does work... Now there is some pork in this barrel. Well, this barrel is full of pork. Little pieces of pork, big pieces of pork. All sorts of pork.  Go and look at all that pork that we are paying for...Too bad we can't eat it.  Hopefully it will come to benefit our economy when it eats it. If the economy gets to feel the effects.  Oh wel, God please help us.

Two new dawns

So, along with my new dawn, the world sees a new dawn with the inauguration of Barack Obama.   I hope that Mr. Barack Obama fulfills all that people hope that he's going to do, but he has a tall order to fill.  He is tackling a big problem economically, but I hope that he succeeds.  Lord, I pray that You guide Mr. obama, and lead him in what to do in this country.  Also, that he succeeds in being a great president. Jesus, your kingdom come and your will be done. In Jesus name. Amen!

Our new president: may God bless him

MLK and Obama

Happy Birthday Mr. Martin Luther King! This man really was a great Man, but we often forget about his background and why he did what he did. Unlike Malcom X, MLK wanted to change the world peacefully with peaceful demonstrations. But it wasn't his approach that should make us stop and think. It was why he did what he did.

Now, let's refocus a little. This man, MLK, was not some politician, not solely activist. He was a preacher. A pastor actually. Although it wasn't a backwoods church. You know, the inspiring story of the little people who could. But still, he was preacher.

God gave this preacher a vision. And I'm not doing a knock off of the the MLK "I have a dream" speech. But God had to have given him a vision for him to nonviolently go through all that he did. He was a great leader with God giving him the guidance in what to do. Sadly, he ended up giving his life for this cause. But was more of giving his life for his anointing, and in turn giving his life for God.

So now, because of the advancement of people like MLK, and others afterwards, we now have a history changing moment coming up in a few days. Yes America, our first african american president is going to be inaugurated on Tuesday, January 20th, 2009.

This is history in the making. History that I am planning to watch and record so that I might put it in my archives of great things in history that I've seen.

Now, with all that effort, I'm sure the question could be ask. "so you agree with his views and the things that he stands for?" No. Not at all. I think that it is great for America that we have a man of a different color that is able to be elected. Overall, this is a interracial victory, but really, this is not a Moral victory. But no matter how I feel about my views of what he stands for. He will be my president. He will be the representative of the United States to all th countries in the world. Because of that he earns my respect and my prayers. Now, will I back him totally if he does something that I think is wrong morally or God forbid persecuting Christians even? No. But I do hope that he succeeds in leading America. And i hope that he succeeds in not only leading america, but leading us towards God's/Jesus' plans. I do NOT want him to be assasinated or anything like that. I want him to live and be a good president. THose are my prayers.

At the beginning of Romans 13, it talks about how God has given leaders. In this, we are to respect them and pray for them.. Of course, if your leader does domething that is against the Bible or what God has told you to do. You don't have to do it because Jesus says you give you caesar what is caesar's and to God what is God's!

So the long and short of it is this: Be praying. Be praying hard for our country and our new president that God will guide him and that he will listen to God. And for God's kingdom come and God's will be done on earth as it is in heaven! May God bless America!

Happy New Year?

Our new president's religous views

If you want to see the religious views of our new President, go to this site. I hope we, christians, do not reap bad consequences from this bad choice. I pray that our Christian freedoms are not cut down even more! God save us!

http://falsani.blogspot.com/2008/04/barack-obama-2004-god-factor-interview.html

This is an interview before Obama was running for president...2004 to be exact when he was running to be in te senate. Yeah, his first time in any US Governmental position in 2005. First time elected to government position (Illinois) 1996.

A time to mourn

Yes, I'm a blogger and I am in mourning. As I watched the election last night I was wishing and praying that my nightmares would not come true. I was praying and prayed at dinner that America wouldn't have its Saul. You know, Saul from the Bible! you remember the story. The Israelites had God as there leader with prophets/judges serving as the mouth poece between. Pretty sweet deal when you think about it. God as their president. SWEET! Well, they didn't like this deal. The Israelites, I mean. They wanted to be like everyone else....Seriously, that's what they told God. Here's what they said (paraphrasing of course) " All these coutnries around us have a king and well, we want one too! You are not enough!" Well, alhtough God did not want to give them a king....He did anyway...because that was what they wanted.

So what does this have to do with America....Nice Bible history, but so what?!

Well, America has voted for one of our most liberal Presidents with one of our most liberal Congresses....Our democratic friend Nancy is probably jumping in delight...alot like a demon. I know that Obama has said a lot of things that sounds great and that he's going to change things...But these are just words...Oh yeah, don't forget..he has a Great personality....A I remember, that was never a requirement to become President....Also as I recall, that's how Hitler got elected. So, I'm praying that we won't end up like nazi Germany and Rome with Caesar and Octavian....Tricked out of a real democreacy and freedoms.

The Race is on!

So the race is on, and the candidates are official. Since the candidates are official, they have now picked their running mates. Obama has picked Joe Biden, the very liberal senator with much experience. The amount of experience that Joe Biden has is supposed tomake up for Obama's lack of experience.

McCain has also picked his running mate. Governor Sarah Palin from Alaska. This was kind of a hit out of left field. No body really saw it coming. Now, people are saying that she lacks experience (she's only been a governer for like 2 years and a mayor before that). They are also talking about issues as to whether she should run with being a mother of like 5 and a baby born this past year. Then, don't forget that she has a 17 year old daughter that is pregnant. The media startd having a hay day with these issues and all of a sudden started making a big deal. This is hard to take when they defend these type of things everyday. Ironic isn't it? But Sarah palin is a big draw for conservative evangelicals. Why? Because she very much of a conservative and she is a christian.

Now we are down where we really are choosing who will run and be an example of our country. Remember that this person needs to line up with the Bible, and the standards that God sets out for us and for leaders. Pray hard!

GOD HELP US!

For anyone who's been keeping up with the race between obama and hillary you now know that the race is over. Finally, all the votes are cast and Hillary is now out of the running. Obama is now the only Deomcrat in the race and will officially be named the Democratic candidate some time this summer.

As we all know very well by now, McCain has and will be the official Republican candidate. He not alot of people's ideal for a Republican candidate, and he has some liberal beliefs, especially when it comes to immigration, which is a hard issue to deal with because one is dealing with real people. However, in these big and difficult decisions you have tomake the decision that will help more people over time. not just right now!

To cross that last statement with what's going on now would be a very pertinent request. Right now, as US citizens and a christian, you are faced with a difficult choice. A choice to partake in the choosing of your leader! Choosing the image that you want the whole world to see and hear. A scary decision really. This person will either make your country look good and strong or bad and weak. Other then listening to their rhetoric and all the junk that they say that they are GONNA do. One should stop and pray and ask God.....Who should I vote for that you want in office. Not what makes sense or whatever, but what God wants. We don't need to fall for talk but led by God's hand.

California, What are you thinking?!

So in california last week, their state supreme court was to determine that if a ban on Same-sex marriages was in line with the california constitution. The state supreme court determined that it was against the constitution to put a ban on same-sex marriages. They said that putting a ban on same-sex marriage is that same as the ban that was put on inter-racial marraiges in 1946, and that it was against their civil rights. The court also determined that the ban would be against all that california has done in the past for same-sex couples like letting them adopt (WRONG!) and hold Real Estate...THIS IS BOGUS!!!!! I can't believe that this has actually happen. Where are the Christians in all this? How can we let this happen? Look at what's happening about you! 2 women or men are now able to marry each other in California, and is everyone ok with this? There needs to be a big movement of Christians that will stand up for what is right! Stand up for what is in the Bible! Have we swallowed the pill that homosexuality is acceptable??? This is not the norm! This is not jsut a part of nature...God created us to be the sex that we are and to get married to the opposite sex. We need to be aware of what is happening around us. I mean right now, I can hear evidence of our fallen culture. Where these boys are talking about video games, the more violent the better! This is crazy. If their bodies explode, implode, or turn into or fight some grotesque creature, they get really excited. They get bummed if they talk about a video game that they can't get, and it has all this violence. the more realistic, and this is what they are saying, and the more violent. The "better" the game!

Wake up people. We have a responsiblity that has been given to us from God! We need to stand up for what's right! And the Right morals!!!! Come on! God put us here to be different and set apart! Are you ready to stand up for God and what's right? If not, why? Think about it

LOOK OUT!

So, there's a new thing out. Oprah's new religion and her new church. That all religions lead to God....This is wrong! Jesus says in John 14:6 says that Jesus is the only way. It says "I Am the way, the truth, and the life, no man comes to the father except through me. She says that Jesus is no the only way and the chirstianity is confining. This "new religion" is alot like hinduism. Think about this fellow christians. She is encouraging people to not follow after Christ but to follow whatever they think about themselves. Really she's saying to "find" yourselves. She leads people into a trans to find themselves in her new book show. This is wrong! This is not right! It's time for Christians to stand up against this dumptruck of lies being fed to our nation by one of the most popular people in the world!

Now we must also take a look at what candidate Oprah is backing. The candidate that Oprah is backing is Barak O'Bama. So the support of this woman and her beliefs are in the favor of Barak O'Bama. We as Christians need to take a close look at this! O'Bama is being backed by Oprah who is coming against Christian and what we believe. Lets take a long and hard look at this. We need to be praying desperately for our nation, its leaders, and this election. We do not need to sit back and think that things will take care of themselves without Christians standing up for what Jesus shed his blood for! It's time to take a stand! it's time to really live you life for Christ! This world is deteriorating fast! Things are becoming socially acceptable that are against the Bible! A MAn (who was really a woman but got reconstructive surgery?!?!?!?) is pregnant?!?!?! And people are calling this a miracle...This is not a miracle...This is sad and sick and against the Bible!

Chistians, it's time to pray! It's time to stand! It's time for us to do Something other than be afaraid of making waves. The world has been a tsunami with itself! Can't we make our own Tidal Wave of Chirstianity for our savior?!?!?!

The Contest Continues

McCain is the nominee for the republicans. However, on the democratic side, the race is still on. O'Bama is in the lead. Hillary is (the last time I checked) 150 delegates behind O'Bama. Things are starting to look sad for Hillary, however, she is still hanging in there. Some are asking for her to stay in the race longer. However, as November is getting closer, and it's very important that you as the voter pays closer and closer attention to the candidates and what they stand for. Do research and make sure that what they are saying lines up with what they are doing.

Here's a site to gather some information from:

Michael Graham

http://thenaturaltruth.blogspot.com/

The race is starting to come to a close

As of March 5th 2008 Huckabee has officially dropped out of the race for the republican candidate. McCain has now gotten all the votes he needs to become the Republican candidate, and there is no way Huckabee can get the votes he needs to catch up. So, now the republican party has finally united behind one candidate! McCain has now spoken to Pres. Bush in the Whitehouse and have pledged support to one another.

Hillary and Obama are still neck and neck in the Democratic run for candidacy. Obama has a narrow lead. Hillary and Obama are seeking the support of super delegates in each state which carry their own amount of voting weight with them. This could cause the vote to go either way. However, the fate of who wins this battle does not lie in the super delegate's hands. There are still plenty of other primaries and caucuses to decide who will become the democratic candidate.

Be praying hard. This is a crucial election in a crucial time in history. Pray about the issues. Pray about who to vote for. Pray and follow the peace of God towards the candidate that he wants you to vote for!

Primaries update

Since our last update many things have happend. Super Tuesday was one of the things that happened. Now, Romney has dropped out and the ony republican candidates are McCain and Huckabee. McCain is really the top dog with the most primary delegates and Huckabee very far behind him. Huckabee is being given a hard time for staying in the race this long. Many people say he looks bad. Does he look bad or is he just in an endurance race? Who knows? Only time will tell.

Now, on the democratic side, John Edwards dropped out, and lef thte field for Hillary and Obama before Super Tuesday. Hillary got more votes on Super tuesday, but Obama has had the biggest gains since that day winning 11 primaries/caucuses which is every one since Super Tuesday. Is Hillary lost? Or does she still have a chance for a big comeback. And with Obama, is the US ready for its first Black President? Is he the right man for the job? Is he all talk and no execution? Is he really the next Hitler (who had a great personality) The Choice is yours!

As a Christian, we should invest our vote. And in investing our vote we should do this with prayful consideration of what God wants and ultimately who he tells us to vote for. So, now is your time....Your time to affect history. Prayfully consider who you should vote for.

Other Primaries

Nevada went to Clinton
Nevada went to Romney
SC went to O'Bama
Florida went to McCain
Florida went to Clinton (Although their delegates have been disqualified from the democrat Conference)

Super Tuesday is coming upon us. About 22 States are going to be voting on Feb 5th. 2 days after the super bowl. However this super day is alot more important and has farther reaching effects than the Superbowl. We all need to pray because this is an important time, and as Christians we need to pray. This is an important time with important issues being brought up. We need to look at the issues and check it against the Bible.
