I am a Christ follower and not ashamed to say so. It matters to me that Christians and non-Christians are equipped with the truth so that every person has the ability to know what they think and why. If people hide the truth from you in the name of "protection" or because you have to "pay for it" to get access, you need to question the motives. Sometimes they are good intentions with bad consequences and other times they are snares meant to enslave you. Some people say you should trust those in gov't. After all, they are "in authority" over us. If they are so trustworthy why do we all joke that politicians are all liars? Think about it. The United States is a Constitutional Republic. It has rules to keep us from eating each other alive with democracy (the most dangerous form of gov't) and is set up for the people to be the fourth and most powerful branch of gov't, holding our elected officials to truth and accountability and limiting gov't to keep the "beast" on a leash where we the people are the master, and gov't is restrained into its bounds. If we as a people do not wake up soon, we are doomed to the sorrowful annals of history. We will be a tragedy of legend, long lost and forever mourned as a great light that shined on the whole world, snuffed out by greed and sloth. Rome fell in a day without a fight. Will we go so quietly into the night? Pray for our people. We need the restorative power and revival of Jesus Christ in our hearts. He is the only hope. We must act and submit only to God and the righteous authority he places over us.
