(Ephesians 2:10; Acts 4:12 )
King Obama became the first President to celebrate GAY PRIDE MONTH at the White House Monday night, warmly welcoming more 250 gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender Americans "to your White House." As I told you prior to the election, this would be the most gay friendly President ever, a man who will help to advance the radical homosexual agenda in this nation.
During his 18 minute talk, he spoke openly of his full support to help the radical homosexual movement gain all of the special rights they are seeking as they force society to accept their perverted choice of sex as normal and mainstream. Obama than took a shot at Christians by characterizing opponents of homosexual political issues as holding fast to "worn arguments and old attitudes."
The war to keep the sin of homosexuality from becoming accepted and condoned, even celebrated, has been lost! So you still think this is a Christian nation? Over the past 40 years prayer and Bible teaching have been taken out of the public schools, we legally slaughter over 4,000 innocent babies a day, gambling and pornography are now socially acceptable, profanity is no longer considered bad language, Jesus, the Bible, and the Christian faith are openly mocked while the cults and false religions of the world are now revered and protected, we have changed God's definition of what marriage and the family is, places that call themselves churches and men and women who call themselves pastors don't even believe the Bible and operate in complete rebellion to God's Word, and the sin of homosexuality is now considered an acceptable mainstream lifestyle choice.
Hello! Christians! Think it is time we wake up???
How could all of this have happened in such a short period of time? Simple. Men and women who God called to lead his church and people have failed to do so. Many of them deny the inspiration, inerrancy, and Truth of the Bible and have led people to accept and condone what God clearly calls sin. Others have chosen to preach a gospel of motivation and prosperity that tickles the ears of the masses and garners them huge followings of people who don't want to hear about sin and sacrifice, only how to be successful and rich by this world's standards.
I watched Joel Osteen hawk his new book that gives people 7 keys to be successful. Funny, not one of the 7 has a thing to do with Scripture or the real success of a person, only temporal earthly success you would hear about in a Tony Robbins meeting. How a pastor can sit on nationwide TV for an hour and never ONCE utter the name of Jesus is actually a pretty amazing feat. Sadly, because of his worldly success, you now have other "pastors" who go on national TV and call themselves "life coaches" and other names, never once mentioning the Bible or the name of Jesus or the fact that Christ is man's only hope now and for all eternity.
Still others have gravitated to a social gospel, seeking to solve the problems of this fallen world like hunger and sickness and poverty, without ever mentioning the greatest need a person has, to have a relationship with Jesus since that "offends" people. These are noble causes but wasn't it Jesus who said "the poor you will always have with you." That doesn't mean we don't reach out to the poor and the sick, but the greatest need a man has isn't food and medicine, it is to know Jesus as their Savior. Too many who are navigating the waters of the social gospel, have had to compromise the absolutes of the Bible and create unholy alliances in order to do the work they are doing.
How did we get to this place as a nation? Men and women God called to lead who led the church into their own little subculture, apart from mainstream society. We retreated behind the four walls of the church into the comfort and prosperity of the "Christian trough," something satan was only too eager to let us do since it removed the "salt" and "light" from the marketplace and left it to his wolves to ravage.
Now when we step out of our comfortable little subculture back into the real world, we are faced with babies being slaughtered, men marrying men and women marrying women, porn and gambling everywhere you turn, filthy language accepted as normal conversation, all of the media vehicles being used to carry Satan's lies to the masses to insure their souls will end up in hell, and parades to celebrate a sin like homosexuality!!!
I love you and care about you so much. The sad fact is, we can't turn back the hands of time. Things are never going to be the way they used to be. Those days are gone and over. However, in the wake of this gross and unbridled sin are the destroyed lives of real people who bought the sweet lies of sin and are now paying the price for their rebellion to God. This is a new opportunity for the church and for God's people to be the true hope and answer for those who are still breathing, whose lives have been devastated by sin, and who yearn for the peace and joy that can only come from having a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
A byproduct of all this sin is the coming wrath of God and great persecution on the church and God's people. This is the time when all of the ways we have figured out to divide ourselves will no longer be important, when those who serve the Lord for mammon will fall away since it will no longer be profitable, and those who aren't serious about their faith will run from it. Left will be a faithful remnant whose citizenship is not of this world and whose goals are not earthly but Heavenly. It is this faithful group who will help bring in a great harvest of souls as the final moments of human history unfold.
My prayer for you today is that you become more bold in your witness for Christ. Don't emulate some of these so-called leaders who have been programmed by their business handlers to never even utter the name of Jesus so people aren't offended and book sales aren't hurt. It is at the name of JESUS that every knee shall bow and every tongue confess Him Lord! The Bible proclaims that there is only ONE NAME by which men are saved, the name of JESUS! If we are ashamed of Jesus, He will be ashamed of us.
Take your stand for Jesus my friend. In a nation and world that has rejected our Lord and His Truth, now more than ever He needs each one of his true followers to stand for Him. Yes, this nation is no longer a Christian nation, and yes the war to stop the sin of homosexuality from becoming mainstream has been lost, but when this world as we know it comes to an end, sin will be defeated and the TRUTH will prevail!
In His love and service, Your friend and brother in Christ, Bill Keller
By opposing same sex marriage?
He is such a fag.
I think you know exactly what the poster means.
Obama pretends to be for male-female marriage (he says he believes in it, whatever that means). Meanwhile he gives every other signal, including this Gay Pride Month nonsense, of being for the militant homosexual agenda. This agenda seeks raw government power. When in place, it will erode the free speech, education, hiring and association freedoms of conservative Christians and Orthodox Jews.
“Hello! Christians! Think it is time we wake up???”
More like, hello world...Oncer again, we see a very small percentage of the population (3-5%) seeking special rights and priviledges as if they are some kind of major voting block and as if they have been badly aggrieved.
No on both counts. Instead, these folks have a real tendancy to aggrieve civil society. NAMBA, the recently arrested Duke professor, pediphiles across the globe, the in-your-face aspect of the GLBT militants towards the general population, are all examples of their ongoing abuse of civil society.
The fringe really doesn’t want to come in to the mainstream, they want to homogenate it. But the mixture will always be incompatible/antipodal.
Of course I do.
I also know our current POTUS is a hypocrite that's full of crap.
What is there to “celebrate” about a perversion caused by a mental illness?
He is on the wrong side of everything else, why not? I am listening to “God Bless America” from Ray Charles, give a listen when you can.
Sorry, didn’t mean to misinterpret.
He does indeed speak out of both sides of his mouth. He pretends to listen to pro-lifers, fooling all too many, and most recently making nice on the “conscience clause.” But, of course, deep in his heart he is pro-abortion and most things he will do as president will be pro-abortion.
One can only imagine the ways that Hussein has “celebrated” Homosexual Amorality Month in the past.
Gotta love all those Black “fundies” down in the Mississippi Delta and elsewhere who worship this guy. Do they read a different bible or is there something in their poke sallet missing from that eaten by the “racist rednecks” who still care what G-d says about such things?
Dumb mistake, writer should have checked.
Did you even read the post? This is the first president who had a party at the White House. Clinton might have declared in Gay & Lesbian Pride Month but he never publicly celebrated it in the White House.
I think the point is, we must add this to the list of “firsts” for which our Dear Leader is renowned...
- first pedophile president/Congressman
- first transgender president/Congressthing
- first president who's background is the "sex business"
I guess if it hasn't been done yet, it's fair game. And we all should be proud about it. /sarc
So people cling to “worn arguments and old attitudes.”
It is just not religious people that do not accept the perverted homosexual lifestyle.
