Weekly ReCap - 02-02-2007

And whereas it is the duty of nations as well as of men, to own their dependence upon the overruling power of God, to confess their sins and transgressions, in humble sorrow, yet with assured hope that genuine repentance will lead to mercy and pardon; and to recognize the sublime truth, announced in the Holy Scriptures and proven by all history, that those nations only are blessed whose God is the Lord.
Abraham Lincoln, (see below. . .)

What IS the meaning of IS? Speaking Truthfully
What is so wrong with speaking plainly and truthfully? Current examples of George Orwell's 'newspeak'. It's a Brave New World!

Mid-Week Devotional - Luke 1:15
I find it hard to accept any justification a brother or sister in Christ might have for condoning abortion when I read this verse and it’s context. Listen to the angel Gabriel.

Prayer Team: Boldly Proclaim the Gospel
It should be obvious that there is increasing hostility toward teachings of the Gospel. How will we react? It can be easy to let culture box in our faith. We can all to easily stay silent when speaking out becomes uncomfortable or even criminal.

Militant Buddhist Monks?
When you think of a Buddhist monk do you think of someone leading a military patrol whose goal is forced conversion to Buddhism? Well, it’s true.

All this being done, in sincerity and truth, let us then rest humbly in the hope authorized by the Divine teachings, that the united cry of the Nation will be heard on high, and answered with blessings, no less than the pardon of our national sins, and the restoration of our now divided and suffering Country, to its former happy condition of unity and peace.
Abraham Lincoln, a Proclamation Appointing a National Fast Day, March 30, 1863

God bless you and God bless America.

"Brethren, we came to this country to practice our religious liberties, and if we don’t get involved, we’re going to lose them."

John Peter Muhlenberg "January 21, 1776 in the Lutheran church in Woodstock, Virginia, Reverend Muhlenberg took his sermon text from the third chapter Ecclesiastes, which starts with 'To every thing there is a season...'; after reading the eighth verse, 'a time of war, and a time of peace,' he declared, 'And this is the time of war,' removing his clerical robe to reveal his Colonel's uniform. Outside the church door the drums began to roll as men turned to kiss their wives and then walked down the aisle to enlist, and within half an hour, 162 men were enrolled. The next day he led out 300 men from the county to form the nucleus of the Eighth Virginia."

The Second Amendment by David Barton"Constitution signer John Dickinson, like many of the others in his day, defined an inalienable right as a right 'which God gave to you and which no inferior power has a right to take away.' Our Founders believed that it was the duty of government to protect inalienable, or God-granted, rights from encroachment or usurpation...

the Second Amendment was to protect what was frequently called "the first law of nature" - the right of self-protection. This right of self-protection was, in fact, considered an inalienable right - a right guaranteed to every citizen individually."
Every American Patriot must read The Second Amendment by David Barton

One nation, under God!

"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing." -Edmund Burke

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." ~Samuel Adams

Saint: "the people of God, the church of Jesus Christ. . . the idea of being set apart for God as well as conformity to God's likeness through the work of the indwelling Holy Spirit." We are all called saints that believe and have faith. The "celebrated" saints are people who lived extraordinary lives and can inspire us to do the same.
Saint Stephen I of Hungary

"The time is now near at hand which must probably determine, whether Americans are to be, Freemen, or Slaves; whether they are to have any property they can call their own; whether their Houses, and Farms, are to be pillaged and destroyed, and they consigned to a State of Wretchedness from which no human efforts will probably deliver them. The fate of unborn Millions will now depend, under God, on the Courage and Conduct of this army-Our cruel and unrelenting Enemy leaves us no choice but a brave resistance, or the most abject submission; that is all we can expect. We have therefore to resolve to conquer or die."
- General George Washington to his troops before the Battle of Long Island
