Christianity, government and islam
Are you bewildered at the American government’s interest in Iraq, Libya and Afghanistan or are you still thinking that you can rest easy because the “terrorists” are being kept abroad? If the latter describes you; you may consider investigating for yourself exactly who the terrorists are.
As Christians in America continue to face more and more pressure, Christians in each of the countries mentioned above are now sorely persecuted by muslims since their perspective U.S intrusions.

It is a photograph of an actual letter sent to Christians.
The American government is currently beginning their intrusion against the sitting government of Syria and now Christians (in Syria have) said they fear that a change of power could usher in a tyranny of the Sunni Muslim majority, depriving them of the semblance of protection the Assad family has provided for four decades. Exactly who are the terrorists?

Student Group at The Catholic University of America Opposes HHS Mandate
There are many of us!!!!
Following is a letter from The Catholic University of America. Read, be encouraged and go forward!
As students and members of Vita Familiae at The Catholic University of America, we oppose the HHS contraceptive mandate. A society that insists that contraceptives be distributed for free is a society that values pleasure over the dignity of the human person. Contraception is not necessary for women’s health. In fact, there is abundant evidence that contraception can be harmful to women’s physical and psychological health. It turns the woman into an object to be used rather than a person to be valued and makes it easier for women to do the same to men. Contraception denies both the procreative and the unitive meanings of the sexual act. The HHS mandate treats fertility as a disease, and by making the “treatment” free, implies that “curing” it is our most important public health priority. A child is not the unfortunate result of a biological disorder, nor is it a commodity that everyone has the right to possess. A child is a gift bestowed on its parents by virtue of their spousal union. This mandate violates the First Amendment right of religious liberty of Catholic Americans by forcing their cooperation in acts that violate the moral teaching of the Church. More broadly, this mandate tramples on the rights of conscience of millions of Americans whose considered judgment is that contraception violates the moral law and undermines the wellbeing of the women and men who resort to it. There is no place for this mandate in a free and just society.
Vita Familiae is a student organization that promotes the values of marriage and family in society. It is a member group of the Love & Fidelity Network and receives support and training from The Ruth Institute.

MONUMENTAL with Kirk Cameron
I don’t care for pagan temples theaters that make a lot of money promoting iniquity and the work of the devil.

Do you see a problem here? Pastor Youcef Nadarkhani
In Afghanistan, someone at a nato base burned a koran for the purpose of disposing of it / them. While the details are sketchy, please note that the purpose of this burning seems to be more for the purpose of disposal rather than to make a statement. Never-the-less the koran burning gave the muslims an excuse to do what they do best; riot and murder.
Here is the story; US embassy in Afghanistan on lockdown as anti-American protests continue over Koran burning incident
Are you anorexic? Of course I hope you’re not. But if you are; you no longer have to put your finger down your throat. All you have to do is watch this disgrace to America grovel as he apologizes. Having said that; I do agree with the people of Afghanistan; America has no righteous reason to be there of which I am aware.
Now, just to add a little perspective to the situation; it’s important to note that while a four star US military general has no problem groveling over the demise of a few korans; the military seems to have no problem at all burning Bibles. Here is a story about that.
And here is a video
But the real point of this story is about Pastor Youcef Nadarkhani. Pastor Nadarkhani lives in Iran with his wife and two sons. But the problem is they don’t live together. The reason for that is Pastor Nadarkhani has been imprisoned now since 2009 because he is a Christian. And now recently he has been sentenced to death.
Here is an outdated but still informative video about Pastor Nadarkhani.
In Afghanistan a few korans are burned (apparently) for the purpose of disposal and the muslims do what they do…. and the four star general then makes a video groveling about it.
Yet Bibles are burned by the American military and Christians are imprisoned for years and now sentenced to death and what do we hear from the US “military” and government? Silence.
Where is the American “church”? Where are all of the hirelings Pastors that should be uniting for Pastor Nadarkhani? Where is the outcry for a fellow Brother in chains?
Remember them that are in bonds, as bound with them; and them which suffer adversity, as being yourselves also in the body.
Heb 13:3
All it would take is a relatively very few people blogging, sending emails, writing letters and making phone calls telling the politicians that they have reached a dead end on their easy street and these abominations would cease.
Yet Americans seem too busy visiting their favorite restaraunt to feed their faces to worry about a little thing like a dear Christian family being left alone while their Christian Pastor father is being unjustly imprisoned for three years and then sentenced for execution.
At least someone is doing something. Click here for the ACLJ story about Pastor Nadarkhani and a small thing that you can do to help.
People of Yahweh understand that this is only the beginning. The American Government is clearly adverse to the one and only ONE TRUE GOD OF THE BIBLE: YAHWEH! But Praise Him He is still in control and always will be.
He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh:
Yahweh shall have them in derision.
Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath,
and vex them in his sore displeasure.
Ps 2:4-5
May Yahweh God be Glorified in these days as we stand strong and He proclaims all authority and all power.
Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
Ephesians 6:16-17

A tragic mistake leads to an early end
Praise Yahweh God that our lives are in His hands. Hanna Kelley, the Pastors daughter who was recently shot in the head has passed into eternity (see previous story below). A life here on earth that was seemingly cut short; but it sounds as if she will be warmly welcomed on the other side. But please pray for the family, the congregation and particularly those who made this most dreadful mistake. It’s just a terrible situation.

You can’t ‘compromise’ on religious liberty
…In their efforts to eliminate faith’s role in politics and government, an entirely new culture war has been ignited by the same liberals who have told us that politics and religion don’t mix, that we shouldn’t legislate morality (unless it comes to raising taxes), and who don’t believe there should be any religion-based conscience exemptions. Under their interpretation of the First Amendment, the bar on “respecting an establishment of religion” trumps the right to the “free exercise” of our deeply held convictions even when that means bucking nearly 150 years of legal precedent.
The Obama Administration’s Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) decision to force religious institutions to provide insurance coverage for abortion pills is nothing short of a war on religious liberty. And President Obama did nothing to change this fact with his latest “accommodation.”

Surgeon says human body did not evolve
As a medical doctor, Kuhn not only knows the general arrangement of the human body’s visible parts, he also understands the interrelated biochemical systems that sustain and regulate all of those parts. He recognized that the human body contains an all-or-nothing system in which its core parts and biochemicals must exist all at once for the body to function. Click here for the story
