After reading what you had posted and as a person who has had to deal with “learning challenges” all her life and had been in a wonderful relationship with a truly devout Bible believing Christian significant other for 21 years, before God called him home at the age of 46. He also had a “learning challenge”, that despite that, had a number of jobs and worked hard. He loved me very deeply, and I the same. We were starting to plan for our future when he taken ill very suddenly and a few days later, had passed on. Because of him, who pointed out to me the King of Kings, it was my faith that kept me going.
What it all comes down to is this, even with “challenges”, be it physical or mental, one still MUST make a decision either for or against Jesus Christ and no excuses, not even having a “challenge” can EVER excuse what had happened in a very, very horrible and heartbreaking way in my home state of CT last week.
Last, I can add, I also have come to know people who have challenges and it is enough to learn, like me, to accept this cross we have to carry every day, let alone do what this MONISTER did late last week.
“As for me and my household, we WILL SERVE the Lord.” Joshua.
” Faith that this problem can be resolved and action to make it so. Both are sadly missing in Washington.”
The founders did not want us to put our faith and action in Washington, it is a We the People task.
....And most important in a much GREATER power, God.
Pay no mind to the generation line
Forsake your sect, and be colorblind
The problem's not Hollywood
The problem's not Washington
The problem is a weak, divided Church of schismed Christians

I think the states will have a BIG say in that scenario though.
There is no way states like Texas, Montana, Alaska, etc. will bow to his wishes without a Full amendment voted on by the states, and that just isn't going to happen.
They show "Touched By an Angel" episodes from the past.
It is my understanding that Roma Downey is producing another similar series to air in 2013.
The liberals will pan it, I'm sure. "Nothing wholesome will be shown on our networks ... "
We have learned a hard lesson. Instead of preaching the Gospel to our culture, we tried to change things politically.
And now, we have the fruits of our man inspired labor. Now we have no other choice but to obey what our Lord commanded us to do from the beginning....Preach the Gospel..
Only this can truly CHANGE our country, and bring us back to HIM. Sarah Palin is such a blessing, and do not fool yourself, the media and the left hate her because they hate the Lord, just like He said they would. I pray that one day we as a Nation would once again be worthy to have a truly Godly person like her to serve this nation. In this world, it is impossible...but I have hope because Jesus said With God all things are possible. So now I am committed to pray, be a friend to, help, witness too and love my fellow American, and maybe...just maybe...Our Father God through His Son Jesus Christ will bring a revival to America and save us from ourselves again.
This is just so eloquent. Thank you for posting it.
But CeeLo Green? Isn’t he the same jerk who put out a song called “F___ You”?
The gospel (good news) of eternal salvation:
The Bible is clear that Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God who died on the cross as our substitute.
He paid the penalty for our sins.
He took the punishment that we deserve.
God’s provision of eternal salvation is a free gift (Eph. 2:8,9).
God, through Jesus Christ, did everything.
All you do is accept that free gift.
Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved.
The Bible explains how to be saved (how to receive the free gift of eternal salvation):
John 3:16-18
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever BELIEVES in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He who BELIEVES on him is not condemned: but he who does not BELIEVE is condemned already, because he has not BELIEVED in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
Romans 4:5
But to the one who does not work, but BELIEVES in Him who justifies the ungodly, his FAITH is reckoned as righteousness
Romans 5:1
Therefore being justified by FAITH, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Romans 3:28
Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by FAITH without the deeds of the law
John 6:28-29
Then they asked him, “What must we do to do the works God requires?”
Jesus answered, “The work of God is this: to BELIEVE in the one he has sent.”
John 6:47
(Jesus Christ said) He who BELIEVES in me has everlasting life.
Acts 16:31
BELIEVE in the Lord Jesus and you will be saved
Acts 10:43
Every one who BELIEVES in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name.
John 11:25-26
(Jesus Christ said) I am the resurrection and the life. He who BELIEVES in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and BELIEVES in me will never die. Do you BELIEVE this?
CHRIST in you; the HOPE of glory!
Is there anyone who nails it better than she does? Wow! Time after time! What an utter shame that more didn’t support her.
Yes, and the #1 hit song Crazy with the duo called Gnarls Barkley. I guess this shows another side of CeeLo Green as it is a superb version of the song.
When Herod realized that he had been outwitted by the Magi, he was furious, and he gave orders to kill all the boys in Bethlehem and its vicinity who were two years old and under, in accordance with the time he had learned from the Magi.Then what was said through the prophet Jeremiah was fulfilled:
“A voice is heard in Ramah, weeping and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children and refusing to be comforted, because they are no more.”
Why do they call it evil when in fact it is insanity?
Thanks, but I’ll pass.
Obviously your statement is quite alarming. Let us hope that in this case your friend is off the mark.
Here is a message from a friend, and I agree totally! The only way to stop a killer with a gun is to use a gun against him!

Another reason to love this woman. I wish she would run....
