A powerful statement from Matt Moberg, the Chaplain of the Minnesota Timberwolves:
“If you’re a church posting prayers for peace and unity today while my city bleeds in the street, miss me with that softness you only wear when it costs you nothing. Don’t dress avoidance up as holiness. Don’t call silence “peacemaking.” Don’t light a candle and think it substitutes for showing up. Tonight an ICE agent took a photo of me next to my car, looked me in the eye and told me, “We’ll be seeing you soon.” Not metaphor. Not hyperbole. A threat dressed up in a badge and a paycheck. Peace isn’t what you ask for when the boot is already on someone’s neck. Peace is what the powerful ask for when they don’t want to be interrupted. Unity isn’t neutral. Unity that refuses to name violence is just loyalty to the ones holding the weapons. Stop using scripture like chloroform. Stop calling your fear “wisdom.” Stop pretending Jesus was crucified because he preached good vibes and personal growth. You don’t get to quote scripture like a lullaby while injustice stays wide awake. You don’t get to ask God to “heal the land” if you won’t even look at the wound. There is a kind of peace that only exists because it refuses to tell the truth. That peace is a lie. And lies don’t grow anything worth saving. The scriptures you love weren’t written to keep things calm. They were written to set things right. And sometimes the most faithful thing you can do is stop praying around the pain and start standing inside it. If that makes you uncomfortable - good.” [Original from the author found here: https://www.instagram.com/p/DTPD3TpDCht/?igsh=MW9qdzZzM2cwMHFwZg== ] |

I wrote the above and it would be interesting for anyone who is one to define it if they can. |

So you just let other people participate and make decisions on your behalf. Makes sense. |

Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson's Moral Majority poly-gion that was broadcast over television every Sunday. Ronald Reagan used them to get elected and in return, Reagan helped to elevate them. |

What is a conservative Christian?
I am a conservative Christian. That means the Bible is the word of God and I follow the fundamental teachings therein. Because God is opposed to homosexuality (God did not create homosexuals just as God did not create child molesters and perverts), I cannot support a church or political party that supports and approves of homosexuality, as well as abortion. This means I cannot vote Democrat. I support ICE because it is removing lawless and criminal people —ILLEGAL aliens, from America. I voted for this. Liberal Christians have a form of Godliness but reject what God says about morality. Most abortions are the result of fornication and adultery but liberal Christians stand with the ungodly on this issue as they do with homosexuality. Liberal Christians quote Jesus about helping the poor and hungry., and we should. However, illegal aliens are invaders and infiltrators, scammers, drug pushers, pimps, and traffickers of children to satisfy the sexual appetites of the perverse. Doing good works is good but without repentance it is in vain. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. You are working iniquity by aiding and abetting the lawless, interfering and obstructing agents of the law to deport the lawless, and for refusing to believe what God says about homosexuality, instead twisting and omitting scripture, doing the same as Satan saying, “Has God really said? The church has gotten it wrong for over a thousand years because we have decided what God really meant rather than what he said by the Holy Spirit.” |
