It is very good to see this thread. It’s as if FreeRepublic needs to be awakened (with a kick to the butt) every so often during election season.
Refreshing post
Life is the most precious gift God gives us. Treat it accordingly.
God bless you Jim.
There will be times when God-fearing people have to stand up together for what is right in the eyes of the Lord - even in the face of ridicule or tremendous pressure to back down.
When we are getting such pressure even from those who are part of our group, we realize that the time is urgently upon us & we cannot back away from the fight.
Victory is close at hand if we will pray for God’s guidance and stand together.
Nothing is more important than life?
Baloney. That is not a Christian perspective. Rather, it is a humanist perspective.
John 12:25
“The man who loves his life will lose it, while the man who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life.”
I am commenting only on the raw statement. Regarding abortion, well, my comment is not about abortion, which I am against in all cases except to save the LIFE of the mother.
Some of us freepers in some states vote in the primaries to affect the other parties outcome.
I suggest that this upcoming primary cycle will change our country forever.
We need every conservative to vote in the Republican primary. I will not be bothering with registering as a Demorat this cycle. To me it is less important to alter the Demorat outcome; it is cruical to keep Rudy down and out on our own side.
I don’t know that the following is MORE important than life.
But I think . . .
WHAT WE DO WITH THE LIFE GOD LOANS/GIVES US
IS AT LEAST EQUAL TO THE LIFE ITSELF.
ONLY WHAT’S DONE FOR CHRIST WILL LAST ETERNALLY.
We aren’t put here for our own willy nilly selfish pleasures
though God is interested in us experiencing HIS ABUNDANT LIFE and HIS JOYs UNSPEAKABLE AND FULL OF GLORY as the song and Scriptures go.
We are being trained in this boot-camp to rule and reign with Christ . . . evidently over endless worlds and ages.
The old saw . . . as we wander through life, keep our eyes upon the doughnut and not upon the hole is particularly important in these areas of values.
The globalists/liberals/Marxists would have us swallow the deception from hell that
IF IT FEELS GOOD—DO IT—THERE ARE NO CONSEQUENCES beyond personal pleasure. If power mongering is your pleasure, your orgasm—then, by all means, SHRILLERY, gopher baroque.
If Constitution shredding ruthlessness and tyranny are your addiction—more power to you . . .
seems to be the mantra of the liberals/globalists/Marxists as they have been through the eons regardless of the labels. Soddom and Gomorrah come to mind.
Babies routinely burned on the altars of Mollech (sp?) FOR CONVENIENCE. God was not the least bit amused and the cultures so rampant with that paid dearly, very dearly.
And God holds those WHO KNOW THE TRUTH to a higher standard than the idiots wallowing in such filth and destruction who’ve never learned nor been taught better.
The vast majority of FREEPERS are diligent about such priority values at home and out on the street. Thankfully so.
But sometimes I wonder . . . is there more we could do? So many major portions of our culture and Nation are still going to blazes in a hand basket and thinking it’s all Mardi Gras.
Are there ways we could change our considerable garden hoses into larger diameter fire hoses in this values, culture, survival war?
Are there ways we can at least strengthen one another that we may fight more fiercely and effectively vs shred each other so casually?
I don’t know that I have a lot of answers . . . just pondering out loud.
THANKS TONS, JIM, for this priceless forum. I often think in this era, more good has been done on FR for LIFE, for FREEDOM . . . for what used to be known as THE AMERICAN WAY . . . than in a long list of universities combined the last decade or 3.
May we, as Scripture says, “Not grow weary in well doing . . . “
The Battle is certainly not over.
However, we do well to keep in mind also . . . THE BATTLE IS THE LORD’S. THE WEAPONS OF OUR WARFARE ARE NOT CARNAL . . . but prayer, right living . . . to the pulling down of strongholds, spiritual powers in high places . . . pulling the strings of the clueless.
And, there is also plenty of time and place for us to put legs to our prayers with practical actions, as well. Thankfully, FREEPERS are amongst the best at that.

DUNCAN HUNTER FOR PRESIDENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Give him a chance!!!!
BTTT! Fight the Rooty machine before it’s too late!
Graphic but instructive pictures.
Hopefully that will sink in with the numerous supposed conservatives at FR who will vote support Rudy if he is the nominee.
Critical thinking BTTT
I truly believe that stopping Giuliani from reaching the White House will be one of the most important moments in the history of the country in our lifetimes.
