Yes, I know we've "beat this dead horse" several times now on here....

But no matter how many times we say it and prove it through the Bible.....
Wrong is Wrong.

So true. God has said that He has revealed Himself to every man through Creation. I am therefore satisfied that is exactly the case. We (Christians) point the way to Him, and in so doing we relieve ourselves of their blood from our hands.

All we really have to actually call our own in this world are the choices we make. The power to choose and the nature of those choices are what define each of us. God has already made His choice in that He provided the perfect sacrifice for each of us through the substitutionary death of His own Son on the cross. In this way He first chose us in spite of our character.

Ours is to choose for or against His lordship in our lives which, obviously requires repentance for our sin by accepting the gift of life as described above instead living in a manner which satisfies our own selfishness. In such case, He has promised to forgive us. It is the exact picture of marriage. At some point I fell in love with my wife. I chose her. What was left was for her to choose me in return. Now, I might have threatened her or tried to force her to choose me but, it would not have been her choice and again, at some point the whole thing would have come unraveled. But, since she did choose me on her own, we had something that would last the rest of our lives. Same thing with man's relationship with God. Even though He made us and is Omnipotent, and could easily force us to worship Him, if on our own we choose Him in return, (on His terms not ours, adding to or taking away nothing) thanks to the indwelling of God's Holy Spirit, we become a new creature in Christ and we have something that is eternal, thusly allowing us to be with God for eternity. 2 Corinthians 5:17 (KJV) 17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. This is what make Christians different, God makes them new creatures, with a completely new nature.

Considering Satan's hate for all men, (even those who serve him) it's a small wonder that he is so intent to attack the basic institutions God first set up to protect society in the Garden of Eden. That of marriage and family. Liberals are busy redefining marriage, and the concept of family in the courts. Make no mistake this is a fight for the survival of society as we know it. As has been rightly pointed out in the court yesterday, once the court redefines in marriage to include as between two men or two women, there is really no place afterwards to draw the line. One groom and four wives, seven men and one of their sisters, it will not stop until as a society we are destroyed.

It's laughable to think environmentalists are so concerned about the environment. Shutting down coal fired generating plants while for the sake of power, they ally themselves with other special interests such as the gays who push to destroy the family unit. A much more deadly threat. As goes the out of wedlock exploding birth rate percentages, "29 percent of white children are born to unmarried women, 53 percent of Latinos and 73 percent of black children", so goes the speed of America's downward spiral into crime, laziness and social distress.

With a Supreme Court that seems to lack conviction on matters of tolerance across the board, it is up to voters to seek out and elect conservative representatives if we are to salvage anything of our once great land.
