A Former President

Many of the people who are patriots of our nation have no clue of the danger that is lurking at our doors. Terrorism is not the real threat to us, it is only a symptom. Illegal immigration is not the real threat to our nation. In writing this I certainly do not mean to sound so negative, or opposed to our nation, but I am really trying to defend us, and get us headed in the right direction.

The real threat to our nation is the idolatry pervading our land. The idolatry of technology, medicine, money/finance, recreation, comfort, convenience, even the idolizing of our children. Globalization is also an idol of many. The people involved in this seems to thing if we could just have one world peace, one world economy, one world religion, then all would be well. That is a farce.

When we have a former President of our Country saying that our nation is evil for its support of Israel then, we have problems, and I for one am glad to call him a "Former President". The man no longer has a heart for our Country. It seems more that he has his heart set on being a world leader, than a man of God, I once thought him to be. I have never thought Jimmy Carter to have been a good President, but I did see him as a good Christian, he seemed to care for the poor, and our nation, but not any longer. He would give us all over to the hands of Satan.

The following is a quote printed from Baptist Press concerning Jimmy Carter's comments at a human rights conference in Dublin, Ireland on June 19, 2007;

"The United States and European Union should recognize the terrorist organization Hamas as a legitimate component of the Palestinian government, former President Jimmy Carter said at a human rights conference in Dublin, Ireland, June 19.Hamas, he said, had won free and fair elections in 2006, making the United States' refusal to aid the Palestinian faction and recognize its right to govern a "criminal" act.Carter said he believes both Western governments and Israel are favoring the rival Fatah party of Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, which now only governs the West Bank. Fatah also governed the Gaza Strip until Hamas fighters violently overthrew the party there earlier in June. Hamas, which executed members of the rival party in the street after its victory, had prevailed over the Fatah-controlled security forces in Gaza because of its fighters' "superior skill and discipline," Carter said."

It is despicable, at least to myself, to hear a former leader of the United States of America say such traitorous things. It certainly shows he has no idea of God's promises to the Nation of Israel. The trouble makers in the Middle East is not Israel, but the Palestinians. Their own proclaimed goal is the extinction of Israel. When will this former leader open his eyes and see the truth? Maybe he has a personal agenda in this. If he thinks he is a "Peacemaker" as in Jesus's words, "Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God" (Matthew 5:9), he had better rethink that thought. It does not fit with the agenda.

The SPP

How many of you have heard of the SPP? Those are the abbreviation for Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America. It involves Canada, the United States, and Mexico. The Whitehouse and all those who are involved in it say that its purpose is for the protection of our three countries from terrorism, our prosperity.

Some time ago; while all the debate was, and is still going on concerning our borders to the South of us, and the illegal immigrants crossing our border; I made this statement to some and it was mostly in jest; "Why don't we just take down the fences, remove the borders, and let anyone who wants enter this country?" Like I said, it was mostly in jest, and sarcasm. Then it wasn't long and I heard of this attempt to practically do just that.

I do want to make it clear at the beginning; I am in no way opposed to people coming to our Country to live, and work, and become a citizen of our Nation. It matters not to me whether they be Latino, African, South American, Canadian, Russian, Oriental, etc.. I just think they should come into this Nation with a heart for the Nation, and live according to our culture, our laws, our faith, or at least get along with people of our faith, without trying to steal our rights from us.

We have a major problem with illegal immigration in our Nation. I do not know what the answer is. It is amazing to me the number of people from other nations who so hate our Nation, but yet we have millions who want to come and enjoy the freedom which we offer.

Concerning the SPP; they tell us at the website that they have no plans of becoming one with one economy, one government, etc., but if you ask me it could very well do so when the wrong type of leadership gets into the offices of our President, and the leaders of Canada and Mexico. Go and check this site out, and let me know what you think.

Roger Williams - Patriot

I found this over at a place called The Shepherd's Staff, and found it interesting and informational. You may read the whole article at that location.

"This principle of religious liberty, which so possessed the soul of Roger Williams, would find it's full expression in the words found in the Constitution of the United States of America:"No religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States."and"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof."It was not always so in the New World. After Roger Williams it was and it remains so to this day. He is truly the father of the American dream of a genuinely free nation in which all are on an equal footing before God and the law without regard for their religious views. I am grateful to stand in the tradition of such an outstanding Christian."

Conspiracy USA

The day of September 11, 2001 is forever sketched in my memory. It should be in the minds of every true American Patriot. If we forget we will pay dearly in the years to come. I am about to tell you a story. It is a true story. It is a somewhat sad story, and done in a little sarcasm.

A preacher friend and I were in Caper Giraurdeau, Missouri in late October 2001 for our Missouri Baptist Convention's annual Convention. We were sitting, eating lunch in a seafood restaurant, and there was something which had came into my thinking concerning September 11 of the month before. I have no idea why I was even thinking such a thing, and I certainly had no thought that it would actually be true. I had actually given it to an over active imagination, which sometimes I do have.

My thought was, and I presented it to my friend, "What if...". Don't you love "What if"'s? "What if our President was in on a plot to destroy the Twin Towers in New York City, and by doing that blame the terrorists organizations for it, thus striking out at those nations supporting terrorism?" Now, remember this was only a thought that came to the mind of my overactive imagination. I did not then, nor do I now believe such a thing, but Lo and behold, there are some ignorant, amusing, loudmouthed people who do believe such idiocy.

People whom I will not name, because of their present notoriety, and I desire to give them no space or credit at all; but will give their name's initials.

There is R.O. who is probably the loudest, and most boisterous of the lot. She actually beleves that our President conspired, and had people go in and do a demolition preparation for those planes to destroy the buildings. Now there is C.S. and he has evidently came to the same conclusion as R.O.. These two fit in the realm of those who think that man has never landed on the moon, and that it all was like a Hollywood production deceiving the people. Maybe even in the same category with the one's who believe that everything revolves around the earth.

Do I believe these Conspiracies are real? Not at all. They are from the minds of overactive imaginations, and that is where they should stay. To actually bring a charge of such means against our President ought to be considered a treasonous act. He does represent our Nation. An attack of such proportions against Him is an attack against not only Him, but every Senator, Congressman, and every citizen of the Nation.

Let's pray for our President. He has burdens we know nothing of. This war against terrorism must be won, or there will be more terrorists coming to our land, and the next time they hit will probably make 9/11 pale in comparison.

Think about it. Our President had nothin to do with the destruction of the Twin Towers. He is about defending U.S..

Defense of Israel

Just because someone is a patriot, and loves their nation does not mean that they remain silent concerning his/her nation's faults. You have noticed some of them haven't you? Maybe I stand a little bit on the negative side at times, but I refuse to be a blind loyalist to my nation and not speak when I see a problem, a sin, or an issue of foreign policy.

I have been ignorant concerning our nation's DEFENSE OF ISRAEL. I have gone through years believing that our nation has always been somewhat supportive of Israel, and just recently find out that that is not true.

To my shock and dismay I discover that when Israel was striving to become a nation back in 1948 the USA was not a supporter. Rather stood in stark opposition against it. Believe it or not Russia was a supplier of arms to the new nation. And our nation refused arms to them to help them fight off those who were opposed.

Sometimes I am not so sure that our nation is supportive of Israel being an independent, growing nation. Israel had lands, and it was our Secretary of State and others who have convinced them to pull out and give those lands back to the Palestinians. Are we being supportive when we threaten to withdraw support if they do not give up their land?

The leadership of Israel has "bent over backwards" for peace. We should applaud them for that. At what price though have they done this. There is one thing, that I know for sure, and that is; if we - meaning the nation of the USA - do not grow more supportive or Israel and convince them to keep their lands, and surrender nothing, then we may just start losing more and more of our freedoms. We have already lost many of them.

"Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD." Yes. God says also, "I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you, and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed"

Are we defending Israel when we keep convincing them to give up land? Not at all. We are driving them right out into the Mediterranean Sea. However, I do have it on good Authority that the Nation of Israel will be preserved by a greater power than the USA. For that I am grateful.
