SMOKEY'S SOAPBOX
CHRISTIAN PRINCIPLES
Here we are in the land of the free and the brave. In a
country that was founded and based on Christian principles.
At this point in time, a little over 223 years later we
should be sitting on top of the world. We should be
receiving the blessings that the good Lord gives the
nations that do his will and love him. But, here we sit
with crime running rampant in the streets. Children killing
children in our schools. Government officials that we have
elected that are so corrupt we can not believe anything they
say and we can not condone what they do. A place where
someone is as soon to attack you as not for something as
simple as wearing a piece of clothing that is the wrong
color. A place where Love Thy Brother is a forgotten saying.
A place were road rage can be sparked by the least of
actions. A country where the love of money and the greed
that it bestows, is to the point where no one is safe from
it. A country where a person can be robbed and murdered for
as little as pocket change. A country where, trying to say a
prayer in most places will get you taken to task by the
establishment or the ACLU. A country that is supposed to
protect our rights to worship our God but, does everything
within it's power to restrain those freedoms. A country that
has gotten to where the officials have no common sense left
at all. A country where a defense lawyer will plead that a
person should not be punished because he murdered two men
while he was mad at them. A country where we condemn the gun
and not the criminal. Where we blame society and not the
terrorist. Where a pendant of the Star Of David can be
misrepresented as being a gang symbol. A place where wearing
the cross of Jesus can get you fired from your job. Where
the will of the people is put asunder by the very few that
think they know what the people of our country needs.
When people stand and are so afraid that they are not
politically correct, they will deny a persons God given
rights that is supposed to be protected by the Constitution
of the United States. A country that will allow the eventual
down fall of our country because they are afraid to stand up
and say that this country was founded on the Principles of
Christianity and that we should live and govern by those
principles. A country that does all that it can to not step
on the toes of anyone. To be sure that everything that is
said and done is politically correct. A country that had
it's foundations based on Christ and will allow an atheist,
muslim, hindu or any other form of anti-Christian beliefs
stand in the way of our rights.
We should allow the anti-Christian beliefs to be taught but,
on the other hand, we should not allow our government to say
that it is all right for them to worship as they please but,
that we as Christians can't worship in the open. A freedom
that our constitution gives us the right to do.
If they think it is so bad here that they may be in the
presence of a prayer or a religious tract and be exposed to
the Christian beliefs, then let them go to a country that
will force their form of religion on them and they will
have no recourse.
To stand and say that because a person does not believe in
Christianity, we have to provide a Christian free atmosphere
for them is ridiculous. The exposure to any type of
Christian teachings may be the only form of religion that
person may ever experience. That brief encounter may end up
saving his soul.
But we live in a country that is afraid to teach, Love thy
brother or Love thy God with all thy heart and soul. We
instead teach our children about the use of condoms, the
proper ways of sex and educate them in all the wrong areas.
That we were conceived from a tadpole that crawled out of
the ocean one day and turned into a monkey and then turned
into a man. Where does it say in our Constitution, if God's
teachings are to be thrown out the door, we have to be
taught and believe what Charles Darwin thought might have
happened. Who is to even say that he was even sober when he
dreamed up that idea.
Yes, we have let our country really get it's neck in a
noose. At this rate, it won't be long until someone trips
the latch on the trap door. There is but one way that we
will ever get out of the mess that we are in. It will take
everyone that believes in Jesus Christ to quit being a patsy
for our politically correct government and stand up for the
rights that God promised to those that believe in him and do
his will. We must return prayer to not only our schools but,
to the government offices, in our homes, on the street, with
each other and even when we are by ourselves.
We must put an end to the senseless slaughter of unborn
babies. Abortion surely had to be derived from the word,
abomination. Those that are Christians and still believe
that abortion is alright as long as it is their body, should
study to see that our body does not belong to us. That it is
not our body to do with as we please. Then if you are still
not convinced, you should re-think your Christianity.
When we as a nation get down on our knees and pray to God in
the name of Jesus Christ, then we may see a turn around in
the way things are happening. Until that day comes, we can
expect the best that things will be in our country is the
day we are living today. Yes, today is about as good as it
is going to get.
