I was listening to American Family Radio based in Tupelo, Ms. on my way home from running some errands the other day. It is a Christian station, and they give the news you won’t hear from the slanted, biased, one bubble off level, secular left media. It seems that there is a proposal by the New York State legislature to make adultery legal. I suppose I should have been shocked, but nothing these Woke puppets manipulated by unseen evil powers surprises me anymore. It’s just one more attack on the family and traditional moral values, but isn’t that what they always do. They declassify and rename sinful behaviors and make them legal to appease a godless society that has left the path of decency, having no common sense or the conscience to discern good from evil, right from wrong, and moral from immoral. The only reason they would want to make adultery legal is to open the door wider so those already engaged in it can do so freely without consequences, just like they did with marijuana, abortion, gay marriage, and a host of other things. Aren’t there enough broken families and lives already without creating more? I guess not. It’s the same strategy out of the same old playbook they’ve used forever. They write and pass laws to promote their agendas, and do the same against those who disagree and oppose them. How dare we speak out against their lawless deeds. Why, we’re just a bunch of self-righteous, bigoted morons engaging in hate speech, so they write hate speech laws to silence us. If they can’t pass their laws through the legislative process, no problem, they just issue an executive order, get some liberal judge to rule in their favor, or weaponize the FBI or IRS to come after you. They think nothing of ignoring or enforcing existing laws they don’t like. We are currently being invaded by millions of free-loading illegal aliens breaking our laws by crossing our borders expecting us to foot the bill and support them. Oh, excuse me, I misspoke, they have now been declassified as emigrants. I thought emigrants had to have passports. We aren’t stupid, changing the language doesn’t change the reality.
There is a reason God said, “You shall not”, because he knows the sinfulness of the human condition and the propensity of people to follow the destructive depths of depravity. Somehow, these deceived elite have become so enlightened that they know what’s better for us than our creator. In their minds, God’s moral standards have become archaic and out of touch, so let’s just rename and declassify them. They call abortion “women’s health”, and murder “choice”. God says that the LGBTQ lifestyle is an abomination to him (Lev. 18:22), but it has now been declassified as normal and even desirable. Parents, you don’t have a right to know if your kid wants a sex change, because the liberals say so. The First Amendment to the Constitution guarantees every citizen the right to speak freely. Even that basic right has been declassified from “stand up and speak up” to “shut up and sit down”. This so-called separation of church and state mantra has been used to silence many churches and individuals who stand for truth and morality. Far too many churches have succumbed to their rhetoric and political duress allowing their misguided and immoral values to infiltrate and define them, instead of following the truth in God’s word the Bible. It seems that they can dictate the rules of and desecrate our playground, but don’t you even think about setting foot on their terf, lest they release their minions to beat you up in a court of law.
Genesis 6:5-6 Then the Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great on the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And the Lord was sorry that he had made man on the earth, and he was grieved in his heart.
Can you imagine God being sorry and grieved that he made mankind? It seems to me that we are on a fast track of once again becoming like that generation which He destroyed by a flood. Grieving over sin is a lost and foreign concept these days. Ask someone to define the word “blush” and they might tell you it’s the makeup a man puts on before he dresses himself as a woman and proudly parades himself in public. Mine and previous generations could not have imagined we’d live to see what America has become. If you can change the language, then you can change the law. If you can change the law, then you can declassify morality. If you can declassify morality, then you can destroy a nation. Do what you will, but the moral Laws of God will stand unchanged for eternity. You may have heard the expression, “Things could be worse”. I find little comfort or consolation in that, knowing that they inevitably will be given our current administration. If you have a Bible, take a moment to read 2 Timothy 3:1-5 which parallels with Romans 1:28-32 as follows:
And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil mindedness; they are whisperers, backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful; who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.
Donald Trump often comes off as being sarcastic, blunt, and harsh. He isn’t known for his eloquent speaking, and he cuts through all the rhetoric without mincing words and gets to the heart of the issues. You either like him or hate him, as so many of his opponents on the left do. Nevertheless, whether or not you like him as a person, it is undeniable that we were a better nation under his policies as President than we are today. Trump made this statement at the National Religious Broadcasters (NRB) International Christian Media Convention in Nashville. “How any Christian can vote for a Democrat, Christian or person of faith, how you can vote for a Democrat is crazy. It’s crazy.” Boy did that ruffle some feathers, and of course the media instantly jumped on that coming back with a bunch of reasons why if you’re a Christian, you can’t vote for Trump. However, none of those were based on his policies, but focused solely on his personal faults and failures. As Jesus said to those who brought to Him the woman caught in adultery (John 8:7 -which their law said she must be stoned to death), “He who is without sin among you, let him throw a stone at her first.” Isn’t it ironic that all of a sudden, the ungodly on the left can quote scripture and lecture us as to what defines a Christian. I suppose if we were electing a National Pastor (which we aren’t) nobody could fit that mold, including our current president and all those who came before. Adultery is no greater sin than lying. Think about this: Are you better off today than you were four years ago? Are you paying more for food, gas, services, taxes, tuition, utilities, rent, interest? Are you living a more limited lifestyle and not able to put away some savings? Who is forcing you to accept all this Woke nonsense? Who is taking away your rights as a parent to raise your kids the way you see fit? Who opened the flood gate of our borders? Who has depleted our military and police putting at risk our national security? Who lied about Covid and executed mandates which limited your freedoms to live a normal life? Who has shut down businesses and cost thousands of lost jobs in the name of climate change? Which political party spends money that we don’t have and has raised the national debt into the trillions with no end in sight? Who has cried wolf so many times about the solvency of the Social Security Trust Fund, all the while having their hand in the till? Who always presents an overloaded unrealistic national budget at the 11th hour before a government shutdown, forcing the acceptance of it? Who is in bed with China and allows them to buy up our land? Are you prepared to spend twice as much on an electric car that you don’t want and will only get you 300 miles? Are you optimistic or pessimistic about the America your kids and grandkids will live in? If you don’t know the answers to these and many other questions, you aren’t paying attention, but I think you’re smarter than that.
Scroll back up and read the verses in Romans again. Which political party’s agenda most closely aligns itself and even defends and approves of those who practice such things? Draw your own conclusions. One could also conclude that if you vote for them, you also approve by association. Will we be remembered as the generation that turned things around and stopped the Declassifying of Morality, or continued to accept it as the new normal.
