GOD BLESS WHAT AMERICA? FAT CHANCE By Phil Brennan
Presidents and politicians are fond of ending their speeches by declaring "God Bless America." I have a question for them: "Just what America" are they talking about? Could it possibly be the America that sits idly by while 4,000 of their fellow Americans are being butchered every day in their mother's wombs? Could it possibly the America where Christians who claim to be appalled by the slaughter of the innocents have no problem voting for and otherwise supporting politicians who claim to be Christians yet blithely stand by and allow and even encourage the butchery to continue? Could it possibly be the America where fully 80 percent of the people admit that abortion is murder yet insist that it must remain legal because women should have a right to choose to murder their unborn infants? Could it possibly be the America where those profiting from the billion dollar abortion industry are permitted to deceive potential clients by telling then that the human being in their womb is nothing more than a meaningless tangle of cells and tissue despite unanimous testimony from medical science that it is a human being from the very moment of conception? Could it possibly be the America where proprietors of the abortion mills will not allow prospective clients to see the developing infant in their womb through the medium of ultra sound imaging, thus preventing the mothers from seeing exactly what it is they plan to have chopped up inside their wombs, or scalded to death or vacuumed out of their wombs piece by bloody piece? Could it possibly be the America where federal courts have been allowed to block enforcement of the federal ban on partial birth abortion, a satanic procedure where an infant about to be born is partially yanked out of the birth canal by its tiny squirming feet, has scissors jabbed to the back of its skull, its brains sucked out and its skull crushed? Could it possibly be the America where the government gives taxpayers' money to Planned Parenthood, helping the subsidize the nation's leading mass murderer of the unborn? Could it possibly be the America whose citizens rely on the militantly secularist pro-abortion media for news and information when that same media widely reports on the gathering in Washington of some 30,000 anti-war protesters while all but ignoring 100,000 pro-life marchers taking place at the same time? If that's the America the speechmakers are talking about, one might conclude that they are asking a heck of a lot more of God than He could ever be expected to grant. Since the abominable decision in January 22, 1973 in the case of Roe v. Wade when the Supreme Court ruled that, thanks to a newly discovered right to privacy apparently long hidden in the Constitution until the honorables came upon it, women could kill their unborn infants, over 40 million Americans have been sacrificed in the holocaust of abortion. And the butchery continues unabated. Now we all know that God is infinitely merciful, and more than happy to forgive the very worst of sins and the very worst of sinners. All he asks of us sinners is repentance and a resolution to avoid repetition of the offense. Asking God to bless America when we neither repent nor resolve to stop murdering our unborn young is asking just a bit much. God is all merciful, but God is not stupid. And without his blessings we are on our own, and history has provided us with examples of all sorts of unpleasant consequences that accompany humanity's being cut adrift from its Creator. God doesn't zap us with thunderbolts to punish us, we call them down upon us all by ourselves. And they are coming. If we want God to
bless America, as He has in the greatest abundance for over 200
years, we simply have to put our foot down and abolish this crime against
nature for good and for all. Or get ready to pay the consequences. Fat chance. U

TORCH EDITOR WHAT AMERICA? Could it also be the America which has made sex perversion an alternate life style? A life style of death where those who engage in such a life style die younger and have to contend with all kinds of disease. LET GOD BE TRUE AND EVERY MAN A LIAR 24 Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven; 25 And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground. And there were also sodomites in the land: and they did according to all the abominations of the nations which the LORD cast out before the children of Israel. (I Kings 14:24) And he took away the sodomites out of the land, and removed all the idols that his fathers had made. (I Kings 15:12) And the remnant of the sodomites, which remained in the days of his father Asa, he took out of the land. (I Kings 22:46) And he brake down the houses of the sodomites, that were by the house of the LORD, where the women wove hangings for the grove. (II Kings 23:7) Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God. (I Corinthians 6:9-11) But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the LORD exceedingly. (Genesis 13:13) The show of their countenance doth witness against them; and they declare their sin as Sodom, they hide it not. Woe unto their soul! for they have rewarded evil unto themselves. (Isaiah 3:9) Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven; And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground. (Genesis 19:24-25) Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire. (Jude 7) 22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, 23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. 24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: 25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. 26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: 27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was meet. 28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; 29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, 30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, 31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: 32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them. (Romans 1:22-32) GOD BLESS AN AMERICA WHICH HAS MADE AN ABOMINATION AN ALTERNATE LIFE STYLE. FAT CHANCE. Evang. Don Edwards |
