Defining The Terms

Scripture

Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who substitute darkness for light and light for darkness; Who substitute bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!

~Isaiah 5:20, NASB

Quote

America is great because America is good, and if America ever ceases to be good, America will cease to be great!”

~Alexis de Tocqueville.

Obviously, I am concerned about America’s future. I am not so worried about myself but that is due to my age; I am worried for my children, grand children and greats. I grew up in the 50’s and 60’s; my children grew up in the 70’s and 80’s. They didn’t grow up in the same America that I did but as I look back I can see that the changes they faced were not as radical as what our grandchildren are dealing with. Can you image a devil worshiper demanding that the teacher and principle not discipline their child in the 60’s. I started to school in 1955, a three room school house with one teacher teaching six grades. The parents were the trustees; they took care of the building and they helped hire the teacher. The Federal Government was uninvolved thank goodness. The Federal Government and civil rights has destroyed public education. No one can teach a child anything unless they have the right to discipline. Now a days, teachers are afraid to make any reference to God or their faith due to all the flaky Christ-hating civil rights groups out there like the ACLU and the NAACP both founded and funded by rich Jews. If you don’t believe me, check it out. Now they want to teach transgenderism, critical race theory, same sex marriage and only God knows what. Our history has been rewritten. Our founding Fathers have been slandered. The South has been stereotyped as a bastion for racial oppression. Are you kidding me? Are you telling me that there is no racial strike in the North? Are you telling me that Chicago, Cleveland and Boston have no racial problems? Who had the most problems with busing students to achieve racial balance? I think that would be Boston. But according to the new history books, racism is rooted in the Deep South. Yankee’s are never racist! Yeah, right!

I don’t think America is totally bad; I think we are indifferent and apathetic but the majority believe that babies have the right to life and that teachers should have the right to discipline students. The big problem is the media. Unfortunately they are the ones who define the terms. We use to think the media leaned left, now we realize they are the propaganda machine of the left. They don’t lean left, they are the left. We call people who love Jesus and babies Pro-life but they call them Anti-Choice and instead of calling the aborts what they are…Anti-life, they call them Pro-choice. Here is what they are communicating: Pro-life people are radical and in the minority. The mainstream is Pro-choice. This is a lie and they do not have one shred of evidence to support this lie. They have a huge advantage because so many Americans are ignorant of their schemes. No Christian has any business watching CNN. What will you get from CNN that will increase your faith?

Whether you realize it or not, the media has stereotyped not only the South and the Pro-life Movement, they are doing the same with the church. What has kept them out of the White House more than once–the South. Of course this includes Florida and Texas. A big part of the conservative coalition is not just the South, but evangelical Christians. They have destroyed public education as we knew it. They are shooting one hole after another in the Constitution because all these things stand in their way. All the above are enemies to the left: Right to life, South, good education, the constitution {Republic} and the church. How have they been so successful? They have the podium {a bully pulpit} and they define the terms. You and I know what they are doing but many do not: they are calling evil {marxism} good and good {republic} evil. What was it that Hitler’s minister of propaganda said, “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.” The Nazis were realist, Goebbels admitted, “The lie must be maintained until the state has absolute control. The lie shields the people from the political, economic and military consequences of the lie.” At least the Nazis told the truth about propaganda: the marxist do not. Vladimir Lenin said, “A lie told often enough becomes the truth.” That my friend is a lie.

Extra

I haven’t been doing a blog on the weekend but I have several composed and I may as well publish them. As one of my former secretaries said, “This one sounds like a political rant.” It also happens to be the truth. To be honest, I wish it was not true.

The Weather: I don’t think my problem is the cold, it is the drastic changes between hot and cold. We go from the 20’s to the 50’s in less than 24 hours and about the time you adjust to the 50’s, we dip down into the 20’s over night. Our bodies can get adjusted. I even hear young people talk about how much they look forward to Spring.

One more single outside service at the POINT…in the morning at 9:30. We will be doing outdoor communion tomorrow. We have done it several times. It is a little bit different but that is not always a bad thing. We go back inside next week and begin with a Breakfast at 8:30. The Drive-In Worship service will continue but go back to its regular time slot which is 9:15. It will stay that way until summer and then we will go to 8:15. So the schedule for February 13 is Sunday school at 9:00, Drive-In worship at 9:15 and regular worship in the sanctuary at 10:15.

I hope you have a great weekend and thanks for reading the blog.
