Pure Truth is the Best Persuasion

I recently read a blog page that said that if we want to sell a point to immoral people we can't play a moral angle. In this case it was the issue of abortion. The point was that we should try to convince people that abortion should be stopped because it is economically detrimental.

I see the logic here, and I have tried it in the past. However one of the things I value most in what freedoms remain to us in this country is the moral values and that I CAN still speak about. I will not approach evil in evil's way, even if it means winning the argument. I want God's laws, in God's way. I believe the constitution is a part of that law, and that's what gives me the strength to stand up for it.

The convenientf abortion is wrong because another's life should not be snuffed out because it inconveniences us. That's murder and it should not be paid for en masse by taxpayers. I will never put it another way to make it more palatable for the immoral who call murder freedom. I used to work that way...it never felt like light and truth, even when it was a part of the truth.

We cannot convince others of truth by manipulating that truth, twisting it to show only what we know they will like. In the end it is not the truth, the whole truth. It is the very tactic that has been employed on us for decades to trick us into agreeing to abortion, among other things. Convincing others to fight abortion on fiscal grounds would be an empty and short-lived victory. It's like teaching sexual purity on the basis of disease prevention....they'll eventually go use a barrier method (latex). Eventually people would find a way around the fiscal excuse. I want to win battles for God, his laws have more power to change and stabilize our nation than all the best philosophical strategies in the world. The founding fathers even said that the Constitution would only be effective on a moral people. Truth, undiluted, is God's way and will win in the end. At that end I want to be able to say I had enough trust in His way not to change it in an effort to "win".

Here is a link to the BLog I read, you may agree with it..even if I don't. http://morganj428.blogspot.com/2009/08/thought-on-abortion-debate.html

CONTACT YOU REPRESENTATIVES AGAIN AND AGAIN!

http://action.afa.net/videos/reagan/
Go to this site and listen to what Reagan said decades before about Socialized Healthcare ie: Obamacare. He outlines and accurately predicts the way Medicare and Medicaid paved the way for socialized medicine. This page has a link to a page that will enable you to e-mail your representatives. It makes it easy, you provide your zip code plus the 4 digits on most commercial mailings, like bills. The site pulls up the representatives for your state and area. There is a form letter you can simply sign, or you can write your own. You also have the option of printing out the letter and getting the addresses to mail a physical letter. I strongly encourage you to contact your representatives, weary them with your pleas until they give in, if only to get you off their case! :)- If we keep talking and writing to them it is us voicing the will of God to their ears, and HE will deliver the message!

Self-Governance Based on God's Law

Ever wondered why our Pledge of Allegiance says, "I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the REPUBLIC for which it stands...." and yet Democracy is always being shoved down our throats as our TRUE form of government? I'm not saying we should all be Republicans or Democrats for that matter, just that we should remember what our constitution REALLY says and stand by it.


The writers of the constitution knew first hand from dealing with England and the in-depth study of past civilizations what rights needed to be guaranteed and what things should absolutely be kept out of the Federal Government's control. God raised up these men, molded them to understand the principles of freedom. It wasn't a multiple choice answer, they knew that democracies always lead to anarchy, anarchy always leads to tyranny either in communism, socialism, or fascism, which are really all one type of government with different names, they all equal BONDAGE. They knew that pure republics have a tendency to disregard the people. We got a Democratic Republic. We got a government whose officials are elected by the people. Pure democracy is too subject to the whims and emotions of the masses, and pure republicanism is too centered on government. We had a mixture of the two in which government was limited in its power and influence. Over the years we have looked to government more and more to settle our problems, to somehow guarantee success, limit risk, and yet we still want all the benefits, this is not possible. I cringe when accidents happen, or things go badly for someone and people say, "We need a law against that!" No, we just need to accept that life is unpredictable, that we do our best and no-one guarantees success in this life...or should. We need to obey God's law, what more law could we add that would be profitable to us? We need to be responsible and stop looking for someone to "bail" us out. We can help each other independently and in our communities, but we need to focus first, and foremost, on living responsibly ourselves.


The constitution that we were given was the gift, to make our way to the best of our ability and trust in God for the outcome. Let us return to that form of government which best lends us to freedom to act and live in a way that is pleasing to God. Let’s learn from our mistakes and actions as God intended, with gentle guidance and encouragement from his commandments and laws to help us avoid pitfalls, yet with the choice of breaking ourselves against that law and falling. Let’s return to the government of self, based on tried and tested morals, not humanistic ethics and values, morals. Regardless of what government does, we, as individuals and families, can follow God's law. Whatever happens in the laws of this land, we can live according to God's law without breaking the laws of our country. In defense of our freedoms, let's remember how the TRUE Savior resisted evil(those who opposed him). God is on the side of freedom, let's play on his team, by his rules.
