04/12/10 USING WORDS TO FREE OR TO BIND
Obama may be onto something (tongue in cheek), by banning ISLAMIC EXTREMISM. After all, it is redundant, like, chaotic bedlam, honest truth, rich billionaire, repugnant stench, dishonest liars; which brings us back to Obama. Can you really blame a man for protecting his own? Do not forget Obama's Islamic background, he doesn't.
I know some of y'all cringe when I address the problems associated with Obama. Some of you are expecting me to get in trouble because of my views or the stating of my views. That should be a clear sign that what I am saying has validity. The time is coming when you cannot tell the truth in America without dramatic repercussions.
Remember, Jesus said, You shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free (Jn. 8:32). It was the preaching of the truth that stirred man's desire for freedom from political and religious and racial and economic oppression. Sometimes the reaction is peaceful and sometimes it is violent. The Christian response will always be non-violent, yet God sometimes uses the violence of one man to overthrow the oppression of another man.
Violence is coming. Remember, Jesus said that the end times would be like the days of Noah. One of the main characteristics of Noah's day was VIOLENCE (Ge. 6:11).
However, followers of the Prince of Peace (Is. 9:6), who believe the Gospel of Peace (Ro. 10:15; Ep. 6:15), are called to Pursue Peace With All Men... (He. 12:14) and we are called to be Peacemakers (Mt. 5:9). Our Peacemaking does not renounce legitimate government authority or power, but it does not take up arms to Fight for the Kingdoms of this World (Jn 18:36).
But being a Biblical, Christian Peacemaker does not allow us to wink at the sins of society or succumb to the ways of wickedness. Peacemaking requires spiritual violence (Mt. 11:12).
