For Christian American readers of this blog:


I wish to incite all Christians to rise up and take back the United States of America with all of God's manifold blessings. We want the free allowance of the Bible and prayers allowed again in schools, halls of justice, and all governing bodies. We don't seek a theocracy until Jesus returns to earth because all men are weak and power corrupts the very best of them.
We want to be a kinder and gentler people without slavery or condescension to any.

The world seems to be in a time of discontent among the populace. Christians should not fear. God is Love, shown best through Jesus Christ. God is still in control. All Glory to our Creator and to our God!


A favorite quote from my good friend, Jack Plymale, which I appreciate:

"Wars are planned by old men,in council rooms apart. They plan for greater armament, they map the battle chart, but: where sightless eyes stare out, beyond life's vanished joys, I've noticed,somehow, all the dead and mamed are hardly more than boys(Grantland Rice per our mutual friend, Sarah Rapp)."

Thanks Jack!

I must admit that I do not check authenticity of my posts. If anyone can tell me of a non-biased arbitrator, I will attempt to do so more regularly. I know of no such arbitrator for the internet.

Good message to people who enjoy Freedom.




Baptizing a drunk ... Thanks John Bob!

Robert,




I hope no preachers see this except the ones I am bcc'ing.



This one is almost like the days Gus Thompson preached in the old minstrel wagon in Mound Park. Preacher Gus said at the end of his unserious and funny sermon: "If I had my way, they would take all of the licquor in Portsmouth and throw it into the Ohio river. Now, Mr,. Lakeman, please lead our congregation in song." Choir Director Gib raised his hands and said: "Let us sing: "Shall we gather at the river." It is an old one but I believe it started with Gus and Gib (old Trojan war horses) in Mound Park.

Subject: Fw: Baptizing A Drunk


This is cute.... may bring a smile


Baptizing A Drunk

A man is stumbling through the

woods totally drunk when he comes upon a preacher baptizing people in the

river.

The drunk walks into the water and subsequently bumps into the preacher. The

preacher turns around and is almost overcome by the smell of booze.

Whereupon he

asks the drunk, 'Are

you ready to find Jesus?'



'Yes I am'replies the drunk, so the preacher grabs

him and dunks him in the river. He pulls him up and asks the drunk, 'Brother

have you found Jesus?'



The drunk replies, 'No, I

haven't.'The preacher, shocked at the answer, dunks him into the water

again, but for a

bit longer this time. He pulls him out of the water and asks again, 'Have

you

found Jesus, my brother?'



The drunk again answers, 'No, I

have not found Jesus.'

By this time the preacher is at his wits end so he dunks

the drunk in the water again, but this time he holds him down for about 30

seconds.



When the drunk begins kicking his arms and legs, the preacher

pulls him up. The preacher asks the drunk again, 'For the

love of God, have you found Jesus?'



The

drunk wipes his eyes and catches his breath and says to the

preacher,



'Are you sure this is where he fell

in?'

Justice for self-protection ... thanks Sonny!

“The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government.” -- Thomas Jefferson



"A free people ought not only to be armed and disciplined, but they should have sufficient arms and ammunition to maintain a status of independence from any who might attempt to abuse them, which would include their own government."

- George Washington







A little long but well worth the read. Most of us already have seen this coming.





------------------------













You're sound asleep when you hear a thump outside your bedroom door.

Half-awake, and nearly paralyzed with fear,

you hear muffled whispers.





At least two people have broken into your

house and are moving your way.





With your heart pumping, you reach down

beside your bed and pick up your shotgun.

You rack a shell into the chamber, then inch

toward the door and open it.

In the darkness, you make out two shadows.

One holds something that looks like a crowbar.

When the intruder brandishes it as if to strike,

you raise the shotgun and fire.

The blast knocks both thugs to the floor.

One writhes and screams while the second

man crawls to the front door and lurches outside.

As you pick up the telephone to call police,

you know you're in trouble.

In your country, most guns were outlawed years

before, and the few that are privately owned

are so stringently regulated as to make them useless..

Yours was never registered.

Police arrive and inform you

that the second burglar has died.

They arrest you for First Degree Murder

and Illegal Possession of a Firearm.

When you talk to your attorney, he tells

you not to worry: authorities will probably

plea the case down to manslaughter.

"What kind of sentence will I get?" you ask.

"Only ten-to-twelve years,"

he replies, as if that's nothing.

"Behave yourself, and you'll be out in seven."

The next day, the shooting is the lead

story in the local newspaper.

Somehow, you're portrayed as an eccentric

vigilante while the two men you shot

are represented as choirboys.

Their friends and relatives can't find

an unkind word to say about them..

Buried deep down in the article, authorities acknowledge that both "victims" have been arrested numerous times.

But the next day's headline says it all:

"Lovable Rogue Son Didn't Deserve to Die."

The thieves have been transformed from career criminals into Robin Hood-type pranksters..

As the days wear on, the story takes wings.

The national media picks it up,

then the international media.

The surviving burglar

has become a folk hero.

Your attorney says the thief is preparing

to sue you, and he'll probably win.

The media publishes reports that your home has been burglarized several times in the past and that you've been critical of local police for their lack

of effort in apprehending the suspects.

After the last break-in, you told your neighbor

that you would be prepared next time.

The District Attorney uses this to allege

that you were lying in wait for the burglars.

A few months later, you go to trial.

The charges haven't been reduced,

as your lawyer had so confidently predicted.

When you take the stand, your anger at

the injustice of it all works against you..

Prosecutors paint a picture of you

as a mean, vengeful man.

It doesn't take long for the jury to convict

you of all charges.

The judge sentences you to life in prison.

This case really happened.

On August 22, 1999, Tony Martin of Emneth,Norfolk, England, killed one burglar and wounded a second.

In April, 2000, he was convicted

and is now serving a life term...

How did it become a crime to defend one's

own life in the once great British Empire ?

It started with the Pistols Act of 1903.

This seemingly reasonable law forbade selling pistols to minors or felons and established that handgun sales were to be made only to those who had a license..

The Firearms Act of 1920 expanded licensing to include not only handguns but all firearms except shotguns..

Later laws passed in 1953 and 1967 outlawed the carrying of any weapon by private citizens and mandated the registration of all shotguns.



Momentum for total handgun confiscation began in earnest after the Hungerford mass shooting in 1987.

Michael Ryan, a mentally disturbed man with a Kalashnikov rifle, walked down the streets shooting everyone he saw.



When the smoke cleared, 17 people were dead.



The British public, already de-sensitized by eighty years of "gun control", demanded even tougher restrictions.

(The seizure of all privately owned handguns was the objective even though Ryan used a rifle.)



Nine years later, at Dunblane, Scotland,

Thomas Hamilton used a semi-automatic weapon to murder 16 children and a teacher at a public school.



For many years, the media had portrayed all gun owners as mentally unstable, or worse, criminals.

Now the press had a real kook with which to beat up law-abiding gun owners.

Day after day, week after week, the media gave up all pretense of objectivity and demanded a total ban on all handguns.

The Dunblane Inquiry, a few months later, sealed the fate of the few sidearms still owned by private citizens.



During the years in which the British government incrementally took away most gun rights, the notion that a citizen had the right to armed self-defense came to be seen as vigilantism.

Authorities refused to grant gun licenses to people who were threatened, claiming that self-defense was no longer considered a reason to own a gun.

Citizens who shot burglars or robbers or rapists were charged while the real criminals were released.





Indeed, after the Martin shooting, a police spokesman was quoted as saying,

"We cannot have people

take the law into their own hands."



All of Martin's neighbors

had been robbed numerous times,

and several elderly people were severely injured

in beatings by young thugs

who had no fear of the consequences.

Martin himself, a collector of antiques,

had seen most of his collection

trashed or stolen by burglars.



When the Dunblane Inquiry ended,

citizens who owned handguns

were given three months to turn them over

to local authorities.



Being good British subjects,

most people obeyed the law.

The few who didn't were visited by police

and threatened with ten-year prison sentences

if they didn't comply.



Police later bragged that they'd taken

nearly 200,000 handguns from private citizens.



How did the authorities know who had handguns?

The guns had been registered and licensed.

Kind of like cars. Sound familiar?





WAKE UP AMERICA! THIS IS WHY OUR FOUNDING FATHERS PUT THE SECOND AMENDMENT IN OUR CONSTITUTION.



"...It does not require a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority keen to set brush fires in people's minds.."

--Samuel Adams







If you think this is important,

please forward to everyone you know.

You had better wake up, becauseObama is doing this very same thing,

over here,

if he can get it done.

And there are stupid people

in congress

and

on the street

that will go right along with him.

Constitutional- Proposed 28th amendment. Thanks Ron Walters!

I challenge you to read this and NOT have the will to pass it on to your 20…






No one has been able to explain to me why young men and women serve in the U.S. Military for 20 years, risking their lives protecting freedom, and only get 50% of their pay. While Politicians hold their political positions in the safe confines of the capital, protected by these same men and women, and receive full pay retirement after serving one term. It just does not make any sense.



Monday we learned that the staffers of Congress family members are exempt from having to pay back student loans. This will get national attention if news networks will broadcast it.. When you add this to the below, just where will all of it stop?





This will take less than thirty seconds to read. If you agree, please pass it on.



This is an idea that we should address.



For too long we have been too complacent about the workings of Congress. Many citizens had no idea that members of Congress could retire with the same pay after only one term, that they specifically exempted themselves from many of the laws they have passed (such as being exempt from any fear of prosecution for sexual harassment) while ordinary citizens must live under those laws. The latest is to exempt themselves from the Healthcare Reform... in all of its forms. Somehow, that doesn't seem logical. We do not have an elite that is above the law. I truly don't care if they are Democrat, Republican, Independent or whatever. The self-serving must stop.



If each person that receives this will forward it on to 20 people, in three days, most people in The United States of America will have the message.. This is one proposal that really should be passed around.




Ron,



I have received several other similar emails over the last year at least. The 28th amendment seems entirely likable by me: however with the current PUSA and liberal Congress members, it scares me to have a Constitutional Convention. obama and his ilk would do away with the Constitution and would fight to do that at any convention. Certainly they should not win; however we saw that they voted o into power as the greatest mistake of this partnership government our forefathers established in the USA.

So, I like it friend.  But I want the constitution strengthened. not obliterated into the hands of those who back socialistic communism.

Sam




Proposed 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution: "Congress shall make no law that applies to the citizens of the United States that does not apply equally to the Senators and/or Representatives; and, Congress shall make no law that applies to the Senators and/or Representatives that does not apply equally to the citizens of the United States ."

You are one of my 20+

National day of prayer ... thanks Nita Elliott!

a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent.

--Thomas Jefferson

THIS IS WHAT A TRAITOR LOOKS LIKE

TO MOST OF US.





In

1952

President Truman

Established one day a year as a

"National Day of Prayer."

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



In

1988

President Reagan

Designated the

First Thursday in May of each year as

The National Day of Prayer.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



In June

2007

(then)

Presidential

Candidate Barack Obama

Declared that the USA

"Was no longer a

Christian nation."

---------------------------------------------------------------

This year

President Obama

Canceled the

21st annual National Day

Of Prayer ceremony

At the White

House under the ruse

Of "not wanting to offend anyone"



------------------------------------------------------------------------



BUT... On September 25, 2009

From 4 AM until 7 PM,

A National Day of Prayer

FOR THE MUSLIM RELIGION

Was Held on Capitol Hill,

Beside the White House.

There were over 50,000 Muslims

In D.C. That day.





HE PRAYS WITH THE MUSLIMS!



I guess it Doesn't matter

If "Christians"

Are offended by this event -

We obviously

Don't count as

"anyone" Anymore.



The direction this country is headed

Should strike fear in the heart of every Christian,

Especially knowing that the

Muslim religion believes that if Christians cannot be

Converted, they should be annihilated.


This is not a Rumor -

Go to the website

To confirm this info:

Send this to ten people

And the person who

Sent it to you!...

To let them know that

Indeed, it was sent

Out to many more.
