A VERY GRAPHIC MESSAGE:

2007 A Fresh Start, Or The Beginning Of Trouble?

2007 could well be the year we begin to experience many of the things the bible, science, and freedom fighters, have been warning us about. The comments below address only a few of the perils America and the other "so-called" free nations may well face in 2007:

1. For many years now, the people living in the United States of America have heard about and resisted, the idea of a national identity card. I still have my original social security card, and it has a message saying "NOT FOR IDENTIFICATION PURPOSES" clearly imprinted on the bottom section of the card.

In reality, social security cards are already used as an ID card in many areas of life. Many documents contain your social security number, which is retained by many secular, religious, and governmental agencies. By no later than 2008, the national REAL ID act will require all drivers licenses, state ID cards, etc., to contain encoded information transforming a free citizen into a numbered cell of a "big brother" society even George Orwell would be shocked by! The national ID system is alive and well in America, and Homeland Security and the FEMA people may well be the new rulers in our land.

2. It appears as if religious people worldwide, are on the verge of setting up a system of worship that spans the denominations and faiths that now exist. Deceived leaders of Christian churches are actually praying with those of other faiths side by side, in temples dedicated to "other gods."

While this may seem to some to be a wonderful gesture, it is a slap in the face to God. The last time I read my bible, JESUS was the Way, the Truth, and the Life. Who died for your sins? Who is God in the flesh? Who is the only mediator between God and man. While I understand many good intentioned people worship Allah etc., true Christians should know better than to unite with the lost to worship and pray with. The lost need to be SAVED, not made to feel comfortable along side of those with false religious views, and false gods.

3. America and other nations have adopted lifestyles that would shame even the devils crowd! Many of the lands we look upon as being places governed by savage dictators, control vices and crime better than we do. How come when we "liberate" a nation, things like gambling, porn, and prostitution, become an acceptable way of life?

I am not saying these cruel dictators should be allowed to harm and kill their own people at will, but is it not strange many of these "wicked rulers" seem to have a better handle on certain things we can't even begin to address. I believe the problem is America claims to be a free and moral nation, but is self-deceived as most of our people are living deep in sin.

We can either pretend things are well and continue to decline, or we can begin to pray and INSIST on righteous in government, churches, and families. I believe we are only a step or two from the point of no return, so don't wait until 2008 to see if we are still alive and free…

THREE THINGS TO THINK ABOUT:

1. COWS>
2. THE CONSTITUTION
3. THE TEN COMMANDMENTS

1. COWS

Is it just me, or does anyone else find it amazing that our government can track a cow born in Canada almost three years ago, right to the stall where she sleeps in the state of Washington? And, they tracked her calves to their stalls...But they are unable to locate 11 million illegal aliens wandering around our country...Maybe we should just give them all a cow.

2. THE CONSTITUTION

They keep talking about drafting a Constitution for Iraq. Why don't we just give them ours? It was written by a lot of really smart guys, it's worked for over 200 years ...PLUS we're not using it anymore.

3. THE TEN COMMANDMENTS

The real reason that we can't have the Ten Commandments in a courthouse........ You cannot post "Thou Shalt Not Steal," "Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery" and "Thou Shall Not Lie" in a building full of lawyers, judges and politicians -- it creates a hostile work environment.
