True Freedom

Scripture

“But since my people refuse to return to Me, they will return to Egypt and will be forced to serve Assyria.

~Hosea:11:5, NLT

Quote

“Between stimulus and response, there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.”

~Vicktor Frankl

As defined by the Oxford dictionary: Freedom is ‘The power or right to act, speak, or think as one wants.’ My question is: do we really have the right to act, speak and think as we want. We Americans have enjoyed more freedom than any civilization that has lived on this earth; certainly more than any contemporary. In a report by Freedom House {based on a study in 2013}; they found that only 14% of the world’s population lives in a nation “where coverage of political news is robust, the safety of journalists is guaranteed, state intrusion in media affairs is minimal, and the press is not subject to onerous legal or economic pressures. This clearly indicates that for most of the world’s population; 86% to be exact, cannot ‘speak their mind’ without fear of some form retaliation. If they do not have freedom of speech, what other freedoms can exist?

Another question to ponder: what is the left trying to do in our beloved America. Political correctness is threatening freedom of speech. You think you can say whatever you want–try it! If the left gets their way, it will be a criminal offense to speak against homosexuality or to speak in any negative way about any ethnic group in America other than white men. The left has vilified the NRA of which I am a proud member. Members of the NRA are narrow minded white supremacist, racist to the core. We are the scum of the earth. Let me tell you what they want–they want our guns. All dictators confiscate guns but they are not going to be satisfied with our guns, eventually, they will take our bibles. You may think I am kidding but I am not: these folks will not tolerate the truth. Truths such as creation, sanctify of human life, the destructive effects of sexual perversion, the biblical definition of sin: they will not allow these things to be taught or tolerated. These leftist learn more toward communism than they do the European style socialism and neither socialism or communism have ever worked.

I’ve also got the illegal immigration thing figured out. Why doesn’t the left want a wall? Because they are the party of compassion–BS, mega BS. They are power hungry and if they can carry Texas in a presidential election it will not matter what States like Alabama do. They believe and it is probably true that they can control the Hispanic vote in the same way they control the blacks. They don’t care anymore about Hispanics than they do blacks. They want to control this country so they can destroy the Republic.

Back to my original question: are we absolutely free? NO, there is no such thing. The Jews thought they were free so they rebelled against God. God said, “OK, you do not what to serve Me, I get it but guess what, you are going to serve the Assyrians and let’s see how that works for you.” Oh yes we are free to rebel but we are not free from the consequences of our rebellion. The path to absolute freedom is in Christ because through the process of sanctification, which culminates is glorification, your only desire will be to please HIM and that is the ultimate freedom. We need to pray for president Trump daily: our freedom is actually at stake.

My fears have been confirmed: Big Mama says another heat wave is here and that it could get up to 100 by the weekend. I think this comes from Brad Travis and I hope he is wrong but it got up to 95 yesterday. The good news is: this has to be the last one.

Don’t stop praying for President Trump, Franklin Graham, Lilly Graham, and Tracey Prater. Pray for REVIVAL in America.
