FULL TITLE: Baker Has a Message for the Govt Official Who Just Fined Him $135,000 for Declining a Gay Wedding Cake: Hes Doing This With the Wrong Christian
Just hours after Oregon officials announced that Aaron and Melissa Klein, owners of Sweetcakes by Melissa, would be fined $135,000 for their refusal to bake a cake for a lesbian wedding, Aaron Klein had a message for government officials: He has no plans of backing down.
He wants to silence anyone who opposes his point of view, Klein told TheBlaze, speaking specifically about Oregon Labor Commissioner Brad Avakian, who has spearheaded the case against the couple. Unfortunately, hes doing this with the wrong Christian, because I fight back.
Klein also delivered a message to Americans and business leaders about why he believes that his case is monumentally important.
For years, weve heard same-sex marriage will not affect anybody, he said. Im here firsthand to tell everyone in America that it has already impacted people. Christians, get ready to take a stand. Get ready for civil disobedience.

It is not about the cake.
...become a spy in a radical organization?!!! Not a good idea.
1 Corinthians 15
33 Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.
Proverbs 13
20 ¶ He that walketh with wise men shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed.
Becoming like the enemy is not the way to overcome.
Tell him if he’s going to do that he should rename the page to “Barney Frank’s Colon” to accurately reflect it’s status as a liberal homo echo chamber.
He got that Barney Frank “Put that gross thing into here” look, doesn’t he?
Thanks for reminding me. I try to follow the scriptures as much as I can, but sometimes I fall short. That’s why I warned Christians in my first response: “You might want to do it, but don’t” so that I would NOT tempt them to do unChristian-like things to provoke their adversaries.
I could have advocated we assemble ourselves and march around Washington D.C. for six days. And on the seventh day, give a great shout in the name of our GOD (not Obama’s). I wonder if the mighty hand of GOD would bring the walls of Washington tumbling down? Now that would be some kind of civil disobedience.
But I know that would be using GOD to justify our wants, not his. He is sovereign and will pick the time and place and method to deal with each situation. In the meantime, we will stand down and not surrender to our temptations.
Disgrace to the Armenians.
Progressives are the puritans that Nathaniel Hawthorne warned us about.
I appreciate you, Texicanus.
Civil disobedience is appropriate when someone is asked to do something one is confident is just plain wrong.
That’s what Nuremberg trials were all about: no one should be compelled to act contrary to their conscience.
Acts 4
13 Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus.
14 And beholding the man which was healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it.
15 ¶ But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council, they conferred among themselves,
16 Saying, What shall we do to these men? for that indeed a notable miracle hath been done by them is manifest to all them that dwell in Jerusalem; and we cannot deny it.
17 But that it spread no further among the people, let us straitly threaten them, that they speak henceforth to no man in this name.
18 And they called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus.
19 But Peter and John answered and said unto them, Whether it be right in the sight of God to hearken unto you more than unto God, judge ye.
Daniel 3
14 Nebuchadnezzar spake and said unto them, Is it true, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, do not ye serve my gods, nor worship the golden image which I have set up?
15 Now if ye be ready that at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of musick, ye fall down and worship the image which I have made; well: but if ye worship not, ye shall be cast the same hour into the midst of a burning fiery furnace; and who is that God that shall deliver you out of my hands?
16 Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we are not careful to answer thee in this matter.
17 If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king.
18 But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.
The first course of action is our legal process. What comes after is up to the statists.
He’s a flaming faggot.
Great graphic
Avakian is a huge progressive in Oregon who stirs up a lot more than just pimping for homosexuals
Oregon Strong sort
Isn’t it? I pulled it from another bakery thread.
Yes. Brad Avakian is an elected official. I wonder if it would be possible to petition for his recall. He himself is pandering to voters by sponsoring moveon.org petitions for $15 min wage and so called equal pay for women.
Move on would kick me off their board, or I’d start a petition there. (Maybe worth a try anyway? Just to start the ball rolling?) Maybe an independent website would be better. I’m no techie and don’t know how to set up a website.
I was amazed that even a lot of gays donated to the Kleins; they still stand by the right to dissent and against harassment.
I respectfully disagree. Spies have infiltrated ACORN and recorded them advocating fraud and perjury. Christian women pretending to seek “reproductive health” counseling have exposed a myriad of atrocities.
IMO if I’m afraid another’s depravity might somehow rub off on me, then my faith isn’t very strong to begin with.
Jesus himself among the rabble; He bopped right in amongst the moneychangers and gave them a big what-for.
That said, not everyone MUST be a spy or a saboteur.
I like to get out of my comfort zone, but not too far. : )
Should be Jesus **lived** among the rabble.
“Exactly. Jesus said, Occupy until I come. Occupy is war terminology.”
People think we Christians are supposed to pray and wait until the enemy destroys us. We;re not p*ssies. People forget Jesus beat the shiite out of the vendors who turned his dad’s house into a local Tijuana.
Glad to hear you declaring that. I’m tired of Christians not fighting back. We can’t afford that kind of pacifism anymore. Our freedom to practice our faith is at stake. We have to be Salt or we will be wiped out by decay.
I forgive God’s enemies..after they’re all destroyed.
