Contrary to what they claim atheists really don't have a problem with the possibility of God existing. It's Jesus that they despise and for good reason. If they are wrong about God, as taught by any other religion, they are still OK because they try to be 'good people' and have nothing to worry about.

But wrong about Jesus?

[On being told that the Necronomicon is fiction.]

Yes, BUT since Lovecraft's invention of the name of this book (along with some of its rituals which he "borrowed" from Satanist lore) an actual Necronomicon has been published containing a blend of pseudo-Sumerian and Goetic ritual, with names crafted to resemble those of Lovecraft’s invented monster gods. One version is a compendium of satanic knowledge by somone calling himself, Simon, the Magicke Childe. More importantly for many would be Black Magicians who bought copies, it had performable rites and plenty of arcane sigils (magical symbols) to be used. To quote from a Satanic author of various works: "Satanists understand that any prop that is sufficiently stimulating can be used in personal ritual, so if the materials contained in this book send the proper chill down your spine, then certainly avail yourself of them. As Magistra Nadramia has said: 'Working with and expressing your emotions in the ritual chamber using this particular little black book is perfectly valid Satanic magic. A careful look at The Satanic Bible will tell you that Dr. LaVey encouraged the magician to use any and all elements of fiction, fact and fancy to create his Intellectual Decompression Chamber.'"

And certainly the violent and evil man my daughter married was a self-confessed Satanist (Praise God he has repented of all that and is now saved and filled with the Holy Spirit) who at the time read the Necronomicon and worked hard at practicing what it said to summon up demons to do his bidding!!!

So, regardless of Mr. Lovecraft's "invention" of it in a work of fiction, it is a very real book today containing ancient occultic spells and sigils which very real people are using trying to summon up the demons. And, trust me, if they are wanting Satan to come to them he most certainly will.

Ron Graham and Nathele Graham #fundie raptureforums.com

In order to oppose God, a person must admit God exists. There is a big difference between knowing God exists (head knowledge) and faithfully trusting Him with your eternity (heart knowledge). Non-Christians know God exists, but they believe His laws to be a burdensome stone with too many restrictions. They don't like His "rules" and believe He ruins all their fun. God set laws in place to protect humanity from disease like AIDS, yet God is mocked, His laws broken, and the heathen rage on and on. [...] Heathens are people who oppose God Almighty and they rage against Him and against those who love and follow Him. These heathens are like children who throw a fit if they don't get their way, even if getting their way means aligning themselves with Satan. [...] They believe that if they can just pass legislation to get rid of God they can do what they want with no consequences. How wrong they are. Without God and His love holding all things together, the heathen and ungodly nations would cease to be. America, which was founded on Judeo-Christian principles, has been turning against God for a number of years and is soon to face God's judgment. Prayer was taken out of schools and then abortion, the act of offering children to demonic gods who demand human sacrifice, was legalized. The homosexual agenda is the final nail in America's coffin.

[...]

It is simply astonishing to me that so many people have thoroughly hardened their hearts against God. Not only do they refuse to see the truth but they take great pleasure in denying it. It is comparable to a parent trying to teach a rebellious child not to touch a hot stove and that child defiantly placing his hands on the strove. Even though the pain is great it is more important to prove the parent wrong. The heathen continually try to prove God wrong, but they are the ones who suffer. [...] Satan, the liar who fell from grace long ago, is currently doing everything he can to convince people that God does not exist and that there is no right or wrong.

[...]

There is a movement afoot to eliminate Christianity from the whole world. The heathens will soon get their wish, but it won't be through their vile raging. One day very soon Jesus will call those of us who follow Him Home. [...] Once we are gone, the heathen will have their way and they will get the leader they have been clamoring for. They don't have any idea what horrors that will bring. [...] Then things on earth will get worse. When the man of sin steps into the role of world leader, he will seem like a peace maker. It won't be along until those non-believers who are left on earth after the Rapture will understand that God Almighty, who they raged against and rejected, loved them. God's love was available to them, but they will have chosen to reject Him to follow Satan.

[On Trump Winning]
I think totalitarianism is what is needed to fix this mess, honestly. Not a totalitarianism that ruthlessly and violently crushes its opponents and starves the people into submission, but one person who can make the right moves without being overruled by those within the government who seek to cause this country harm.

Remember, Jesus' Kingdom will be totalitarian! But He will rule with perfect Truth and Justice. Totalitarianism itself as a form of government isn't inherently evil. It's the heart of the person in power that makes it evil (or awesome, as in the case of the Millennium).

*Prayers for Bobby*

Since I always watch/read something before judging it...

First, let me say I think Bobby killing himself was a tragedy. Gay or not, it's always sad when someone decides to take their life.

I think the movie was horribly offensive. I expected homosexuality to be portrayed in a positive light, so no surprise there. But the mother was portrayed as a total witch just because she voiced that God didn't make anyone that way, and that Bobby needed to try to help himself be cured. They even said it was her fault he decided to commit suicide. Again, that was a horrible tragedy, but it was in no way Mary(the mother)'s fault. She was just saying what she knew to be true. Her grief for her son even forced her to right for gay rights, because she so wanted to believe her son was in Heaven.

Like I said, I knew this was a pro-homosexual movie, so I wasn't at all surprised when they showed it was a "good" thing. But to show the mother as a total nut just because she loved God was too much!

Ort #fundie raptureforums.com

Excellent post, brother. As somebody here said, we serve the Living God, not a country. Yes, it makes me sad that my country has, in effect, died. Life here is not the same as it was even 15 years ago.
Our freedoms are being eroded, those who do the right thing are being attacked. Evil reigns and rules. But, we are told to take heart for "I have overcome the world." (Jesus). We know how it ends and who wins. I saw a picture of Jesus standing at the gates of heaven, and the caption underneath said "I never said it would be easy, but it will be worth it!" How true.

[Time for some old-fashioned RR gay bashin'!]

god__chick3: "We do care for homosexuals as fellow human beings but we dont have to accept their perversion as normal. God is the same before He made humans and He is the same today...He destroyed Sodom and Gommorah for sexual perversion so I dont think I'd toy with it. I am leaving it in His hands but I think you'd be wise to back away and let God be God and stop making excuses why a sin is okay for todays world."

Ort: "God's prohibition against homosexuality is not "ceremonial Law", but God's moral law which never changes. And you can't possibly tell me that these verses mean anything but what they mean. If anybody reads anything else into them, it's because they are desperately trying to validate perversion and sin. And because they can't do it in their minds, they love to point out how it doesn't really say that, or God didn't really mean that, etc."

Robert: "Homosexualtiy is a sin: or did God annul the judgmnent of sodom and gomorrah when Jesus came?
It's just as much a sin today, as it was in paul's day, and in Moses' day. God NEVER changed his mind on it. Not ONCE.
He simply changed with how he deals with us, due to Christ's sacrifice. We shouldn't mistake that for God 'softening up.'"

Author: "God does not bring Male and Male nor Female or Female together. At the very BEST 'if' and I use that loosely because I believe the bible screams that it goes further than that, homosexuality relates to ceremonial law, it's still fornication as a male/male female/female marriage is not valid in God's eyes. It's still sin, no matter which part you choose. Paul (that some person that says that 'law' was nailed to the cross) tells us to flee from fornication, period.
You are ignoring this goes beyond ceremonial law, but to not only moral law but NATURAL law. You can argue ceremony all you want, but it doesn't change the fact that Man has a penis, and women have a vagina. Sorry to be graphic but that's the way it is.
You can argue Leviticus as ceremonial all you want, but Romans Chapter 1 is clear that one of the consequences of rejecting the gospel, is to also reject the natural physical use of your body in sexuality. Paul saw no ceremonial law when he used the Greek word physikos."

Terry James #fundie #homophobia raptureforums.com

Unlike the teenagers of the movie Rebel without a Cause (starring James Dean), who didn't know why they were rebels, there is a growing population among this generation that are rebels with a cause. That cause is an ancient one, led by the most hate-filled of all rebels. The cause is twofold: hatred for mankind in general and for the Jewish race in particular.

[...]

Without reservation, I include in [Satan's] army of rebels those who rage against anyone who opposes the inflicting of homosexuality on our society and culture. I include anyone who believes it is preferable to murder babies in the womb so that life can be more convenient for those who don't want the babies--only the carnal pleasure involved in procreating them.

Homosexuality and abortion each bring to the war against humanity the insidiously clever methodologies Satan employs in conducting the battles that he and his and his army wage daily. In each "cause"--homosexuality and abortion--the destruction of human life and prevention of human life through the perversion of sodomy are presented as nothing more or less as the right of the individual to choose what is right in his or her own eyes. Who is this God that He should interfere with man's business?

Part of the cause Satan has inspired his army of rebels to push in the war on mankind involves the whole matter of population control. Abortion and homosexuality aren't doing away with mankind quickly enough. Here again, the evil genius of the master manipulator--Lucifer the fallen one--is seen at work. Mankind must be taken off the planet so life can be better and survivable.

Officials within the UN are pushing the notion that the human population should be reduced in order to effectively combat climate change.

Tink #conspiracy #wingnut raptureforums.com

Climate Change is a deception born of Satan on several levels. The first level is that the green movement works tirelessly to convince people that they have the power to control the climate, to either change it for the worse or for the better. The green movement is trying to make Man, God. This has always been an attractive deception to men.

The path Man should follow is to acknowledge God as the creator of all that is seen and seen, and to love him with all our heart, all our mind, and all our soul, and love our neighbor as our self. One of God’s methods for telling us that we as a group, have strayed from the path is to withhold the rain, to send pestilence, and to cause the land to withhold its bounty from us. (Deuteronomy 11: 13-17, II Chronicles 7:13-14) Satan knows this and has concocted this climate change story as an alternate explanation for what is occurring and will continue to occur unless we repent, turn from our wicked ways and plead with the Lord to restore us.

Since Man without Christ has always wanted to set himself up as God, many, maybe even most of humanity is subject to believing man’s activities are changing the climate and that man can correct that disruption through our own actions. We do not have it within our power to alter God’s creation, only God can alter his creation. If Man lives in obedience to the Lord God Almighty, God will have the earth respond accordingly.

The truth is that our struggle is not with flesh and blood, but against rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. (Ephesians 6:12). These wicked forces have deceived us into believing something false, that climate change is due to man’s activities. And that the fix is within man’s power, which is also false.

The question I have is, Are the world’s leaders deceived by Satan, or are they knowingly and voluntarily in service to Satan in these deceptions?

After Gay Marriage What Comes Next?

The recent decision by the Supreme Court to legalize gay marriage is a major indication that America has lost its way. The true moment of hopelessness occurred to me several days prior to the ruling when it dawned on me that I knew exactly how the vote would go. The proponents of same-sex marriage have spent so much time destroying the biblical foundations of our nation, it was easy to determine that the Supreme Court would bow to the will of the pop culture.

CBS News showed its involvement in the gay agenda by showing clips from a 1967 documentary. It was called The Homosexuals, and it was an eye opener to see how drastically moral values have changed in America. Even though CBS only gave a mild endorsement of the alternative lifestyle at that time, the network could not find a single company that would allow their ads to run during the program.

A homosexual man being interviewed in the documentary made the strange move of only allowing himself to be interviewed from behind a house plant. He had a good reason to be camera shy. Back in 1967, there was only one state in the union where it was legal to be a practicing homosexual. You would be fired from any high-profile job if it was learned that you had same sex preferences. Gays were on the same level of drug dealers and prostitutes.

Today, homosexuality is seen as normal. Corporations are now proud to sponsor gay events. All the limits on jobs have been removed. The CEO of Apple, the largest company by market capitalization, was proud to come out of the closet as a gay man. Christians and conservatives, who oppose the sin of homosexuality are now seen in a negative light.

The moral struggle will not end with gay marriage. It will quickly become obvious how little homosexuals care about monogamous relationships. Sure, gays wanted the legitimacy that comes with marriage but they still prefer to whore around with multiple partners.

[...]

We are now at the point where all is left for the gay lobby is for them to come after Christians. Because there is no long-term satisfaction is sin, homosexuals will always be driven to force others to approve of their lifestyle. If the left had their way, 100 percent attendance would be required at the next gay pride parade. Anyone not seen waving the rainbow flag would be sent off to re-education camp.

Goodboy #fundie #homophobia raptureforums.com

Because this generation has been deceived to believe that homosexuality is just another way to love someone. They also believe that some are born as homosexuals and this is their only means of expressing their love. So people and even some Christians feel sorry for them.

First of all, no one is born attracted to any sex, as sexual attraction does not begin in anyone younger than a year old. Someone may or may not be born with that tendency, but they certainly are not born as a homosexual. Well guess what, we are all born with a tendency of some sin or another, but that does not mean we should engage in it.

Second of all, homosexuality is not love! Let me say it again, homosexuality is not love! The name itself tells you what it is about, which is sex! That's why part of the deception was to cleverly change the name "homosexual" to "gay".

Look I don't care if two guys love each other and I don't even care if they live together as long as they don't engage in sex or passion. There are actually a number of heterosexual men that love each other and live together. No problem with that. If two so called homosexuals love each other and want to live together without passion or sex. No problem with that either.

So to me the biggest reason there has been such a swing to accepting homosexuals is deception.

Amen! The term kind is also used when God tells Noah about gathering the animals, which makes getting them on the ark reasonable, since there are way less kinds (categories like feline, canine, etc.) than species. Although God could make it happen even if it was every species.

People try to use the Galapagos birds as “proof” for evolution but it doesn’t prove anything other than that animals can adapt to their environment — which really only proves how awesome God’s creation is.

The more I read the Bible, the more amazed I am at how much God has revealed to us through His word. I am so glad we don’t live in the Dark Ages and we can read it any time we want.

Here's how moronic the whole climate change thing is. They are demonizing carbon with no thought that this is a carbon-based existence. So if all life is carbon-based and we go and wage war on carbon, then aren't we shooting ourselves in the foot? Everything recycles down here. The pressure underneath the ocean floor spews out oil into the ocean and the ocean recycles it daily. That is a natural function of the earth. If the earth did not recycle, we would be toast.

For example, they worry about air pollution (as well as many other things because they are just a miserable lot of people). Polluted air is heavier than pure air. If you shut down all factories and automobiles, then the polluted air will settle to the ground and it will recycle. In cities where pollution is a problem is because they keep pumping it into the air every day. The problems these crybabies whine about are not real.

Let's look at what God says:

Gen 8:22 "While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night, shall not cease."

So He's promising us that while we're here that He will ensure things continue so we can live. Notice He first said "seedtime and harvest?" This is a firm statement that He will keep the climate working normally so that we can grow crops - that we can farm and have food. If the climate ever got out of whack all life would perish eventually.

I mentioned very little here. There's a lot more that debunks this nonsense. The point is, they don't think anything through. They are just a bunch of parrots (useful idiots) that only follow the narratives they are given because they won't think for themselves.

So . . .I'm pro-carbon

The 'Exploding Giraffe' Award

mikhen7 #fundie raptureforums.com

My Creation science teacher once told the story of the Giraffe. He asked us, "how large the heart of a Giraffe is?"
We said, "most likely larger than that of a human."
He said, "Yes it is." That it takes a large heart to pump blood continuously up that long neck." He went on to say, "What happens to a Giraffe when it leans down to get a drink?"
We just stared at him.

If a Giraffe leans down to take a drink and the blood supply to the brain is not shut off the Giraffes head would explode or massively hemmorage. But what is amazing is that their is a valve placed in the system that closes off the blood supply when he leans down allowing the Giraffe to get a drink.

He then asked, "How many Giraffes heads exploded before evolution created the valve?" It was interesting.

At any rate, His point was we were all created by species in like form as we are today. We do not need to try and fit our Bile into science.

What if someone perceives my post of disagreement to be a personal attack, some kind of "micro-aggression" against them? Will Twitter find it necessary to discipline me? And what happens when religious affiliation comes into conflict with sexual orientation? Will sexual expression trump religious freedoms?

At the same time, Facebook has taken action against religious conservatives, shutting down their Facebook pages for being in violation of community standards - sometimes for simply differing with LGBT activism - while the most anti-God, anti-Christ, blasphemous Facebook pages are deemed to be in harmony with those standards.

According to a 2013 *very pro-gay* study (data is from 1982-2011) in Denmark, (legal same-sex marriage since 1989) married lesbians were more than six times more likely to commit suicide than married straight women. They were also at a 60 percent increased risk of death from cancer, for reasons not yet understood.

It is well known and inarguable that gay men are the main victims of AIDS. 2016 data from the CDC shows that gay men aged 13 to 34 account for 64% of HIV diagnoses. Gay men also have a much higher suicide rate than even single hetero men.

It is also well known that transgender people have a horrible mortality caused in part by a verified 41% suicide rate.

NONE of the above facts are from far-right or religious group studies! If anything they understate how deadly dangerous these lifestyle choices are. And that fact has been known for well over 2000 years!

Here are the six parts to a Fox news special called "The Radical Obama" that was supposed to air a few weeks ago . Somehow it was stopped from airing and was replaced that night by a story on the Don Imus ranch for kids. It is in six short clips and you need to watch them all, it won't be on the internet very long. This is our country being taken away from us right before our eyes by extreme radicals, many now working within our Government (for those that are watching) and no one is doing anything about it. I saw an article the other day in the English version of Pravda, the Russian newspaper that said, " Americans are more concerned about their big screened TV's and eating their Big Mac's than they are of their Freedom being taken away from them". How true, sad but true. This has nothing to do with what political party your in, this has to do with a Marxist type of Government being installed in our country by Obama and his radical friends (34 czar's). Some are Black Nationalist, a few are convicted felons and one is a devoted communist. The new FCC Czar, Mark Lloyd (also a convicted felon) is working on the Government take over of all private Radio and TV stations is a big fan of Hugo Chavez. None of these people can pass a Senate or Congressional background investigation to be employed by the US Gov yet, they are walking in and out of the Oval Office at their own free will and have the ear of Obama. We all need to ask our elected officials why this is being allowed to happen.

Are You a Decoy?

Some days it seems as though I should never have left the warmth of my bed. Everything seems to go wrong - from

1. dropping my freshly filled favorite coffee cup on my keyboard first thing in the morning -
2. to my computer taking four times as long to process every command as usual
3. and a client calling every five minutes to see if I have that report done yet -
4. To the phone ringing and hearing from every friend whom hasn't called me in 6 months and chose this moment to pick up the phone and want to 'catch up'
5. to every telemarketer in the world calling in between
6. to having everyone I have faxed a report to that day tell me they never received it

At some point - I realize I am under attack. These are not coincidences. And the choice is made - to give in and give up and have that temper tantrum I so justly deserve and therefore be ready to tear off the head of the next person I talk to -

or realize that I am on the front lines taking the hits from the enemy and since he is not omnipresent - if he is messing with me - then that means there is a brother or sister in the Lord who is having a good day and recuperating from a day they need to be able to witness to someone for the Lord.

So, I wave the white flag and accept my assignment as decoy and smile. For, while the enemy was thinking I would destroy my witness and lose my joy - he was wasting his time and another soul was saved somewhere down the street by someone who was not under attack.

I am a decoy in the army of God - reporting for duty!

Why on Earth are they given any credence now, why is anyone giving them the time of day. Why are those in power even listening to them, if it was not for these same rules, traditions & constitution from the very start of that country being founded. There would be no country there now & so no free speech or the free way of life they now live. So basically these idiots should shut there mouths & be thankful that they live in such a country & not is a country like Iran or any of the other muslim countries. Lets face it, these people may claim that they are atheists but if they where in a muslim country, that would count for nothing at all & they would be made through threat of death, that if they did not worship allah & become a muslim that threat would be carried out. But not only on themselves but also there family, these people do not realise & or appreciate the freedom they have living in such a country.

96. Human population growth. Less than 0.5% p.a. growth from six people 4,500 years ago would produce today's population. Where are all the people? if we have been here much longer?

97. "Stone age" human skeletons and artefacts. There are not enough for 100,000 years of a human population of just one million, let alone more people (10 million?). See Where are all the people?

98. Length of recorded history. Origin of various civilizations, writing, etc., all about the same time several thousand years ago. See Evidence for a young world.

Because that is exactly whae Paul did with the Greeks. He engaged in harmonious dialogue with them everywhere he went, to present a better way. Blah, blah, blah.

What a load of crap. These people need the Gospel. The need to be confronted with its sting and offended with its implications. The need to hear the good news clearly before its too late for some of them.

One more thing - as for the women who died from back alley abortions -
First of all - the best research has been able to show is that in the 20 years prior to Roe V Wade was that there were only 14 deaths of women from such procedures.

Second - justifying killing a living human being the 'nice way' so that the mother's don't die too makes as much sense as legalizing pedophilia because if they are going to do it any way why shouldn't it be legal so it can at least be regulated.

[Having dismissed the Koran as deliberately misleading and full of scientific, historical and theological errors.]

The real "Book" is factual...The Bible is an anvil on which many hammers have been broken. However, its enemies never tire of attempting to make some impression on it. The Jewish-Christian Bible is a journal-like record of creation, including of the earths initial conditions. It is obvious that only the Bible is both supernaturally accurate and inspired. The Bible correctly describes creation from the standpoint of astrophysics and geophysics. It also summarizes the sequence of changes through which the Earth came to be inhabited by fallen angels, living things (dinosaurs and the like), and ultimately by humans. The Bibles' order and its description of creation perfectly matches established records of nature. God's direction to Joshua and Israel to wipe out tribes already present in Israel was due to God's great love for humanity. Fallen angels had mixed with women and created a perverted race, many of whom were giants. God simply desired that this mixed half human/half fallen angel gene pool be weeded out from the human genes.

America's three pronged plunge into reprobation - No politics can solve this dilemma

1. Over 40 years past America decided that nine Supreme Court justices got it right when they ruled that women could legally abort (murder) another human being. The battle to stop this genocide has raged since then, but to no avail. Under the Obama administration it has reached all new heights and taxpayers and working class people have begun to pay for these abortions.

2. America was the first nation to recognize Israel's statehood when she became a free and independent nation in 1948. Since then most presidents have supported Israel unequivocally. Today for the first time under Barack Obama that recognition has waned and fluttered to the point that most Americans now believe that in a showdown between Muslim nations and Israel, Barack Obama would throw Israel under the bus in an instant.

3. Thirty seven states now allow "same sex marriage" and the Supreme Court is once again on the cusp of allowing the general acceptance, streamlining and lawful practice of this perversion throughout the nation.

[From an article titled, "Three Media Lies About Syrian Refugees"]

1. The "Refugees" Are Not Fleeing Persecution, They're Welfare Migrants

[...]

Muslims are not fleeing to Europe because of religious persecution, but for economic reasons. They specifically seek out countries such as Germany and Sweden with generous welfare states.

The media loves offering false analogies to Jewish refugees during the Holocaust. But the Jews were a stateless people then. They had no country of their own to go to. Muslims have more countries than nearly every other religion on the planet. They choose to go to the wealthiest Western countries, rejecting Slovenia and Bulgaria for Germany and Sweden, because they want money and they want easy money.

Syrian Muslims are not refugees. They're migrants. Only Christians and other non-Muslims are refugees.

While Muslims have easy access to UN refugee camps in Muslim countries, Christians have trouble surviving there. But by outsourcing our immigration to the UN's refugee infrastructure, we abandon Christian refugees and instead take in Muslim welfare migrants. And that is truly shameful.

There is no reason for us to provide special privileges for Muslim economic migrants. [...] We already take in far more immigrants every year than we can afford.

It's time for our leaders to put our country and our people first.

2. Taking in "Refugees" Helps ISIS

[...]

ISIS not only embeds its terrorists as refugees in Europe, but it depends on European Muslims for recruits. Thousands of European Muslims ahve already left to join ISIS. Even those Syrian migrants that may be opposed to the group will have children that will provide a recruiting reserve for ISIS or other groups like it. Without the refugees and children of refugees in Europe from previous generations, ISIS might not even have enough fighters. And the refugees make it easier for ISIS to attack Europe.

Even those Syrians who will never support ISIS and whose children will never support it aid ISIS just by leaving the country. The large numbers of military age men are in part fleeing to avoid being drafted to fight ISIS. Potential ISIS opponents who leave Syria for permanent resettlement in Europe or America make it easier for the Islamic State to consolidate its control over the country.

Every time Europe or America takes in a military age Syrian as a refugee, they are helping ISIS by aiding deserters from the Syrian military, the Free Syrian Army and other groups that are fighting ISIS.

During WW2, we weren't encouraging British soldiers to run away and move to America. So why are human rights activists helping ISIS by encouraging Syrian deserters to flee the fight against ISIS?

3. Vetting Syrian Migrants is Impossible

Syria is a non-functioning state and a state sponsor of terror. We can't rely on it and that means we have to rely on information from UNHCR. The UN refugee agency is incompetent and overloaded. Its employees are corrupt and have a history of selling refugee cards to the highest bidder.

It's UNHCR that decides who qualifies for resettlement and any vetting we do afterward is cosmetic.

[...]

The only way to be absolutely sure is not to allow any potential terrorists into the country. It's a much safer bet than assuming that the same system that failed to stop the World Trade Center bombing, 9/11, the Boston Marathon bombing and other terrorist attacks will work exactly when we need it to.

Migrants arriving from terror states are unsafe at any degree of vetting. Our system has failed before and will fail again. We owe it to our children and our loved ones to protect them from the next attack.

And our leaders owe it to us to stop lying about the risks of Muslim migration to our families and our future.

I've come to the understanding from many credible sources that the Masons are deeply involved with many/all world governments and the UN (yet while themselves remaining hidden) from behind he scenes... this analogy of yours just might mean more than what you might have thought!

This is a Christian board. We uphold Christian values. Obama isn't, never was, and never will be a Christian. He advocates the murder of the unborn, who if they aren't properly murdered the first time, they can just be left as unwanted garbage in a laundry room of the abortion/murder clinic. This man's views are not in line with the Word of God or any believer who has their head on straight and is grounded in the Word. If they wish to defend him, they can do it on a democrat board where their audience will be more receptive. I don't want to see it here, and I don't believe I am alone in this view. If I am alone in this view, then everybody please let me know about it in this thread, and everybody can talk about or praise Obama 'till the cows come home.

[N]ew Hispanic voters will increase the percentage of people in the U.S. that will support the merger of Canada, Mexico and the U.S. into the North American Union and they will decrease the percentage of people in the U.S. that will oppose the merger. These unsuspecting Hispanics are pawns in an Obama scheme to garner support for the North American Union. Don’t forget that Henry Kissinger said that Pres. Obama has been chosen to bring in the New World Order.

[...]

Existing laws and rules will be changed to force communities to accept these Hispanics and Muslims; to deny grants, benefits, etc. to those who oppose this; to allow those who oppose this to be sued; and at some point, to give these Hispanics and Muslims preference over existing U.S. citizens. Put another way, in the future there will be two nations inside the U.S.

1) A nation of Hispanic and Muslim immigrants with preferred status and benefits, and 2) A nation of second class citizens who have lived here all their lives and won’t qualify for preferred status and many benefits. Pres. Obama plans to force the Border Patrol and ICE to keep the border open and not deport illegal aliens, and he plans to ignore court rulings that go against this scheme. This will fundamentally transform America.

[...]

Seven million immigrants in one year will change the demographics of the U.S. in a hurry. Giving them benefits costs a ton of money and there could be a lot of terrorists in a group that size.

[...]

I suspect that Pres. Obama, Eric Holder and George Soros brought in Al Sharpton and others to intervene in the Trayvon Martin (Sanford FLA) and Michael Brown (Ferguson MO) cases because they want to insure the support of the African American community when they elevate the status of the Hispanic and Muslim immigrants and lower the status of non-black existing citizens.

I see no other reason for Mr. Obama and the others to pre-maturely condemn innocent men, stir up African American opposition to the police and non-blacks, cry racial profiling and to call for new mechanisms to deal with police misconduct. If I was a betting man, I would bet that these new mechanisms are Muslim-friendly.

[...]

Everyone should be very concerned especially women, gays, non-Muslims, young people and those who can be threatened with losing their government benefits if they refuse to toe the line.

Satan's End Times Surgery

Academia, it is becoming more apparent each day, is serving as the devil's workshop. Specifically, for example, Yale University is being sought out to serve as the devil's operating room for carrying out an excision of truth in an area that is most troubling to him in restricting his end of days stratagem.

[...]

Lucifer has "enlightened" (seduced) the world's religionists to a large extent to his seductive whispers proclaiming God is love. Anyone who denies that God is love must be put within the theologically and politically correct detention camp - the gulag - where haters must be dealt with appropriately. Anyone who claims that God condemns is a hater, a bigot, a person filled with an inhuman phobia of one sort or the other.

[...]

This is the surgery Satan is attempting to perform - cleaving the love portion of religiosity from the judgmental.

I agree. I was just sitting here commenting to my wife about how I have seen our country go from a Christian nation into one that is very ungodly now. You can tell that things like evolution, gay marriage, abortion, infantcide, teaching elementary school kids about homosexulaity, etc. is just a satanic low we have stumbled to lately. These things have been around for a long time, but only really recently have they jumped full steam into the America mainstream here. We are surely walking down the path of decay spiritually.

Russian (Gog's) contracts on military bases in territories in Ezekiel 38:2-6. Russian military is expanding in Meshech= Moscow area (Ezekiel 38:2) Rosh=Russia (Ezekiel 38:2) and Tubal=Tobal river region Siberia. (Ezekiel 38:2) 100 new bases will be built in Russia as Bible prophecy progresses. This moderization of the Russian armed forces is suppose to be 70% completed by 2020 but the Ezekiel War might take place sooner around 2017 since bible prophecy seems to be on fast forward.
