1.“I am deeply saddened over the horrific acts of violence against Easter worshippers and tourists in Sri Lanka.”
-Ami Bera, M.D. Democrat, U.S. House of Representatives, Sacramento, CA 7:45am, 4/21/19 2.“Deeply saddened to learn of the attacks on Easter worshippers and tourists in Sri Lanka.” -Mayor Brian Bowman, Winnipeg, Canada, 8:11am 4/21/19 3."The attacks on tourists and Easter worshippers in Sri Lanka are an attack on humanity.” -Barack Obama, Former Democrat President, 9:02am 4/21/19 4.“The horrific attacks on Easter worshippers in Sri Lanka are heartbreaking.” -Greg Stanton, Democrat U.S. Representative, Arizona 9:58am, 4/21/19 5.“On a day of redemption and hope, the evil of these attacks on Easter worshippers and tourists in Sri Lanka is deeply saddening.” -Julian Castro, Democrat Presidential candidate, San Antonio, Tx. 9:59am, 4/21/19 6.“Heartbreaking to learn about the attacks on tourists and Easter worshippers in Sri Lanka.” -Jared Polis, Democrat Governor of Colorado, 4/21/19 10:07am 7.“Such a horrific terror attack on Easter worshippers and tourists in Sri Lanka.” -Dan Kildee, Democrat Michigan’s 5th Congressional District, 10:24am, 4/21/19 8.“I'm praying for everyone affected by today's horrific attacks on Easter worshippers and travelers in Sri Lanka." -Hillary Clinton, Former Democrat Presidential candidate, 12:17pm 4/21/19 What in the world is going on with the term “Easter Worshippers”? Here we go! 1.The term “Easter Worshippers” is neither Biblical, nor Christian…as a matter of fact, it is invented. As far as I know, it has never been used to refer to Christians--in my life-time! Nor should it be! 2.“Easter Worshippers” is idolatry. The term “God worshippers” refers to those who worship God. The term “Baal worshippers” refers to those who worship Baal. The term “Allah worshippers” refers to those who worship Allah. On the contrary, Christians do not worship Easter! 3.The origin of the word ‘Easter’ is Ishtar, a pagan fertility goddess. The ‘fertility’ aspect of Ishtar is the reason that cute ‘Easter Bunnies’ were chosen by---only God knows who—as a distraction from the purpose of the day---the Resurrection of Jesus! 4.Notice the ‘times’ of the tweets of those using the term “Easter worshippers”. The earliest is Ami Bera at 7:45am, and the latest is Hillary Clinton at 12:17pm on Sunday morning. This is an extremely fascinating fact because it leads to one of three possibilities. Because “Easter worshippers” is invented, either: i.The later users of the term copied the former user(s). ii.The 8 people above colluded on the term. iii.Because all used the same term within a matter of hours, on the same day, represents a miracle…revealed to them by their god.* 5.Notice all the users are Democrats, except the mayor from Winnipeg, Canada…who is obviously from another nation, with different political parties. However, and just as important, is the fact that every one of them is a liberal! Do you think their Democrat party and liberal affiliation, is incidental? Think again! All philosophy originates in theology—no exceptions! ‘Easter worshippers’ is a theological(spiritual) term! In other words, “Easter worshippers” is reflection of their theology! I repeat, the term “Easter Worshippers” is not an accident! 6.“Easter Worshippers” is word manipulation. The number one method of liberal deception is ‘word-manipulation’, which possesses two parts: i.creating new words or phrases ii.changing definitions of words or phrases ‘Word manipulation’ is intentionally designed to create confusion. Confusion leads to uncertainty, which has a paralyzing effect, ending in silence or moral compromise. The Bible says God is not the author of confusion (1Cor14:33), which leaves Satan as its author. Notice that 1Corinthians 14:33 uses peace in opposition to confusion. This means where confusion exists, anarchy or lawlessness (1Jn3:4) prevails. Ask yourself one question, do you see anarchy and lawlessness in our culture? The answer is a resounding ‘Yes’! Now you know its origin! 7.Identity is who you are. It is not who ‘YOU’ think you are; nor who you want to be, but who God created you to be. You can’t look to your heart (feelings) to determine who you are (Pro28:26), nor to the culture---without grave deception and destruction! The two great questions of life: i.Who you are? and, ii.Why you are, can only be answered by the Creator God. “Easter worshippers” is a direct challenge to the identity of Christians. In the same way pro-lifers are called anti-abortionists, “Easter Worshippers” challenges at the very nature, the core, the foundation of who God called Christians (Acts11:26). Tragically, to challenge identity that God sovereignly determines--in any area of life--is to strike at the very Sovereignty of God! As a matter of fact, the origin of challenging identity is the first sin---Satan declared: “I will be like the most High” (Is14:14). 8.Victimology. In the Sri Lanka tragedy: i.Christians were the targets ii.Muslims were the perpetrators Therefore, to call those murdered in Sri Lanka “Christians”, makes Christians victims! In the liberal world-view, Christians cannot be victims because victimology is the liberal moral trump card. To allow Christians to be victims means liberals would have to advocate in behalf of Christians! But this cannot be allowed because liberalism is a doctrine of atheism! Are you not cognizant that Christians are the ‘MOST’ persecuted group in the world today—including Jews! In spite of this fact, why do you think the liberal media ignores this tragedy? Why do liberals remain eerily silent in the face of such horrible Christian persecution? For example, to this day, April 30, 2019, nine days after the Sri Lanka attacks, Democrat Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, along with Portland Democrat Mayor Ted Wheeler have not tweeted ‘one’ single word about Sri Lanka, in spite of jumping right in when Muslims were attacked in New Zealand!! Ocasio-Cortez alone tweeted 14 times on the New Zealand attack! The answer is obvious to all who desire truth: liberals “suppress the truth in unrighteousness…” (Rom1:18)! Allegiance to atheism drives the liberal agenda to reject Jesus Christ, the only true God (Jn17:3)! Tidbit If you will spend an extra hour each day in study in your chosen field, you will be a national expert in that field in five years or less – Earl Nightingale *I use “god” rather than ‘God’, because the origin of the word ‘Easter’ is pagan. Therefore, the God of the Bible has not, nor would He ever, refer to His own people using a pagan word!

The Bible declares every nation has a god, but only that nation whose god is the LORD is blessed: “Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD” (Ps33:12). Therefore, the question is not whether America has a god, but rather, Who is America’s god?!?! History declares the God of America, is the God of the Bible; the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ!
Note, it was not the Koran, nor the Bhagavad Gita, nor Sikhism, nor Buddhism, nor Zoroastrianism, nor Taoism, nor any other religion, or religious book—that influenced America’s laws and culture! On the contrary, it was the Bible…i.e.the Judaeo/Christian ethic, that created America, and influenced its’ people! Therefore, contrary to the Pennsylvania Congress Democrats, and its first-time Muslim, African-American, representative Movita Johnson-Harrel, who led the way in attacking Representative Stephanie Borowicz for being divisive, after she filled the Congress with a Bible filled prayer to open the state legislature two weeks ago....America is in fact, a Christian nation! This time I want to give you just a small portion of overwhelming evidence proving that America has been, and yet remains a Christian nation. Last time, I left-off with the evidence of President Ronald Reagan’s National proclamation, approved by the Congress, declaring 1983, the year of the Bible! The proclamation declared: “…in recognition of its (Bible) unique contribution in shaping the history and character of this Nation…”!! Let’s move forward! ---On September 10, 1782, the U.S. Congress “approved and recommended to the people the Holy Bible printed by Robert Aitken of Philadelphia. A neat addition to the Holy Scriptures for the use of schools.” ---President John Adams wrote to Thomas Jefferson in 1813, “I have examined all religions, as well as my narrow sphere, my straightened means, and my busy life would allow me; and the result is, that the Bible is the best book in the world. It contains more of my little philosophy than all the libraries I have seen.” ---In 1831, Alexis de Tocqueville, the French social philosopher, who travelled America, and wrote his conclusions in ‘Democracy in America’: “Religion in America...must be regarded as the foremost of the political institutions of the country; for if it does not impart a taste for freedom, it facilitates the use of it... This opinion is not peculiar to a class of citizens or a party, but it belongs to the whole nation.” “The sects* that exist in the United States are innumerable. They all differ in respect to the worship which is due to the Creator; but they all agree in respect to the duties which are due from man to man. Each sect* adores the Deity in its own peculiar manner, but all sects* preach the same moral law in the name of God... Moreover, all the sects* of the United States are comprised within the great unity of Christianity, and Christian morality is everywhere the same.” “There is no country in the whole world where the Christian religion retains a greater influence than in America...and nothing better demonstrates how useful it is to man, since the country where it now has the widest sway is both the most enlightened and the freest.” ---Teaching millions of American children (of which I am one!), the McGuffey reader sold over a million copies per year for over 100 years! In 1836, McGuffey declared, "The Christian religion is the religion of our country. From it are derived our prevalent notions of the character of God, the great moral governor of the universe.” ---In 1852, Robert Winthrop, a descendent of John Winthrop, the first governor of Massachusetts said, “All societies of men must be governed in some way or other. The less they may have of stringent State government, the more they must have of individual self-government. The less they rely on public law or physical force, the more they must rely on private moral restraint. Men, in a word, must necessarily be controlled either by a power within them, or by a power without them; either by the Word of God, or by the strong arm of man; either by the Bible, or by the bayonet.” ---After exploring thousands of historical documents, the SCOTUS in the 1892 Holy Trinity vs US case, concluded: “No purpose action against religion can be imputed to any legislation, state or national, because this is a religious people. Our laws and institutions must necessarily be based upon the teachings on the Redeemer of mankind. It is impossible that it should be otherwise. And in the sense, and to this extent our civilization and our institutions are emphatically Christian. This is historically true. From the discovery of this continent to the present hour there is a single voice making this affirmation that this is Christian nation. We are founded to legislate, propagate and secure Christianity.” I repeat---this is the voice of the Supreme Court of the United States of America…after researching thousands of historical documents! There are literally tens of thousands of documents testifying to the Christianity of America! The liberal myth that the Declaration of Independence, Articles of Confederation, Constitution, and the Northwest Ordinance treats all religions the same is just one of the many liberal myths perpetrated on this nation! Come now, be honest, do you really think--God thinks all religions are the same? If you really don’t know, read Jn14:6; Jn17:3; Acts4:12; Ps71:19; Is44:6,8; Is45:5,6,22! On the contrary, God has blessed this nation because her people have called on His Great name(Rom10:13;2Chron7:14;2Chron16:9)! In other words, contrary to the Democrats and Muslims of the Pennsylvania Congress, the purpose of prayer in the government halls of America, is so that God might answer our prayer…not to inspire unity!! The Bible declares God answers prayer---only---in the Name of Jesus (Jn16:23-24)! Therefore, sorry Mr. Robert Spencer, although I love you, and have many or your books on Islam, but ‘non-sectarian prayer’ does not exist! Only the prayers of the righteous avail much(Jms5:16)!! And righteousness is imputed only through faith in Christ(Rom4:5)!! Thank-you for your bold witness, Ms Stephanie Borowicz!!! *By sects, Mr de Tocqueville, meant Christian denominations—not other religions, such as Islam, Buddhism, or Hinduism. Remember, his own words, “Moreover, all the sects* of the United States are comprised within the great unity of Christianity.” QuoteBit Leaders are Readers -unknown Last week in Pennsylvania, a state representative named Stephanie Borowicz prayed the invocation to open the state legislature. Her prayer was filled with the word of God. She repeatedly mentioned the Name of Jesus, calling Him Lord of Lords; King of kings; the great I Am; and of course, she mentioned He died, rose again on the third day, and referred to His soon return. They stopped her prayer, and it became national news!
First, Democrat African-American Movita Johnson-Harrel, who was sworn-in earlier as the first female Muslim representative, led her party in condemning the prayer! She declared, “I knew I was going to receive some discrimination because of my religion”. She called the prayer, “highly offensive to me, my guests, and other members of the House. It blatantly represented the Islamophobia that exists among some leaders.” Second, Democratic House Minority Whip Jordan Harris declared, “Let me be clear. I am a Christian. I spend my Sunday mornings in church worshiping and being thankful for all that I have, but in no way does that mean I would flaunt my religion at those who worship differently than I do. There is no room in our Capitol building for actions such as this, and it’s incredibly disappointing that today’s opening prayer was so divisive.” Finally, Democrat House Minority Leader Frank Dermody said, “It was not meant to bring us together. It was not meant to inspire us. It was beneath the dignity of the House,” as the members applauded! Third, although defending Rep. Borowicz, Rober Spencer, the Director of Jihad Watch made a very interesting observation, declaring, it “may have been inappropriate in a setting in which not everyone present was Christian, but it was not “Islamophobic” as many Democrats charged.” He continued, “we’ve seen many imams say prayers at various legislative bodies that are not non-sectarian, but manifestly Islamic and even condemning of Jews and Christians…” Let me cut to the chase…this is furthering and establishing the de-Christianization of America! In 1947, in the case Emerson vs the Board of Education, SCOTUS, as led by Justice Hugo Black*, took the phrase made famous by Thomas Jefferson: “separation of church and state”, extracted it from its context, applied it to the first amendment: "Congress shall make no law respecting the establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof", and arrived at a new doctrine called ‘religious pluralism’. This is official language which simply means: ‘all religions are equal!’ SCOTUS has made many mistakes over two centuries, but this is arguably the worst decision in American history! In short, from the settling of the nation (1606-1775); through her founding (1776); through the Civil war (1861-65); through the World Wars; through the Civil Rights movement; up to this day---America has been, and yet is…a Christian nation!** Sadly, and on the contrary, as liberalism has usurped control of media, academia, government, and Hollywood, there has been a concerted effort to destroy and replace America’s Judaeo/Christian roots…i.e. to de-Christianize America, i.e.to make America a secular state! The reaction to Ms Borowicz is a perfect example of the consequence of the 1947 Emerson myth, i.e. the false notion that all religions are equal! Or, the equally false notion, that the Declaration or Constitution possess some principle advocating that ‘all religions are equal’! I repeat, nothing could be further from the truth! To resolve this issue, we will first go to what God thinks, and then to what history says. Let’s begin with God’s word. As the sovereign God, Who alone is God(Is44:6,8), the Creator and Sustainer of all things visible and invisible(Col1:16;Rom1:20), the Bible declares God created all things…for His pleasure(Rev4:11). By virtue of this fact, He not only owns everything, but has the right to define or purpose His creation. Because nations are included in God’s creation, the Bible declares He defines their borders (Acts17:26, Gen10), gives them an inheritance (Deut32:8); and then gives two fundamental instructions: 1.Make your God the Lord. “Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD” (Ps33:12). Incredibly, this means every nation has a god, but only those nations who make their God the Lord, are blessed! 2.Exalt righteousness. Righteousness exalts a nation (Pro14:34). This means to keep the law of God(Deut6:25), i.e.to obey God! If a nation will do these two things: God will prosper them! For this reason, America is the richest nation in the history of mankind, with an annual GDP of 20 trillion dollars! No other nation is close! This is not an accident! In order for Emerson’s idea of religious pluralism, i.e.all religions are equal, to be true, the author of truth(Jn17:17; Jn14:6;1Jn5:6;Ps119:142)—Almighty God--would have to sign-off on it! Come on now, let’s be honest, do you really think that God believes all religions are equal? Satanism is a religion! Satanists have prayed in legislatures across America! As a matter of fact, like Ms Borowicz, even atheists have opened-up some legislatures in prayer! I repeat, is it possible that God thinks…all religions are equal?!?!? Because I’m out of time, I will cover number two, America’s Christian history next time. But let me leave you with one example: On February 3, 1983, President Ronald Reagan, in conjunction with the Congress of the United States proclaimed 1983: The Year of the Bible! The document declared the reason: “…in recognition of its (Bible) unique contribution in shaping the history and character of this Nation…”. *There is strong evidence Justice Black was a member of the Klu Klux Klan. This is worth mentioning because blindness leads to blindness(Lu11:35,36)! **President Barack Obama was the first and only president to say, “Whatever we once were, we are no longer a Christian nation.” QuoteBit A successful marriage isn't finding the right person - it's being the right person. -Unknown |
