There are some intense social issues today facing our nation, our families, and our churches. This is ‘my opinion’—-and not ‘to convince you’—-but to stimulate you to search the Scriptures for truth—-but be careful the Scriptures you choose to base your perspective are ‘addressing the issue’—-and ‘not taken out of context.’

So often, these issues are camouflaged with emotions to switch our focus off going to the source of our moral principles, the word of God, the Holy Bible.

Then there are those—-who ‘seemingly use’ their scriptural perspectives to ‘create this emotion’—-by taking ‘out of context’ the biblical illustration they use to make their points.

Two that I can point out which has huge emotional issues are: 1. Abortion, which I will not cover in this writing; and 2. The gay issue, ie., gays in our society, gay marriage, and gays in the church.

Let me start out by saying, if one of my children were ‘gay,’ I would still love them, pray for them, and they would still be my child——–but, I would not ‘condone’ their ‘life-style’ nor would I socialize with their ‘partner’—-their significant other.

Many people today assume the “wall of separation” means freedom from religion rather than freedom of religion.

You know my heart on this—-and that I feel this ‘growing and more invasive’ assault by our Supreme Court as it methodically works to ‘erase God’ from our culture under the ‘guise’ (deception) of ‘separation of church and state’——–which was never the intent of our Founding Fathers, as it now is being interpreted by our courts——-has America at a ‘crossroads’ morally. To use God’s moral and ethical laws as a guide or the foundation for our society’s interaction is not ‘promoting religion.’ It is just identifying and declaring our moral and ethical principles. It does ‘not’ require anyone ‘to believe’ as we do, or in ‘our God.’

Some would ‘challenge the government’ to being able to ‘legislate morality.’ I present to you that ‘murder, rape, theft, assault, — crime – is about morality.’ If we do not ‘legislate morality’ we then leave it up to each individual to ‘act as they feel or desire.’ That would describe ‘chaos’ and anarchy – and we see that in nations in the midst of ‘revolution’ or ‘armed overthrow’ of their governments. The US is a nation of law – and order – based upon those laws.

In the United States, there has been for many years now, the promoting of a “false concept,” a deception, that stated enough, soon many Americans start “buying into it” instead of really researching it, and then labeling it for what it is, a complete lie——and a tool to silence the voice of Christianity in America. And we think maybe this is a first time this has happened. But it isn’t.
