For almost 100 years, now, government meddling and citizen dependency on government have escalated beyond anything that those among our Founding Fathers who were most ardent about the defense of human rights ever dreamed should happen. If that escalation continues, then our Nation shall utterly fail and fall, just as every other top-heavy, suppressive, invasive government has fallen, under its own weight and excess, crushing the hope, joy, peace, and life out of its citizenry. These United States of America CANNOT afford a government that makes robots out of citizens and businesses. We, also, can no longer tolerate the corruption of spirit that happens when government permits or encourages us to be a nation of people who sit around eating bonbons or being enthralled by entertainments. Remember the "bread and circuses" days of the Roman Empire!... and where is that today? Furthermore, we CANNOT afford an invasive government that micromanages our daily lives, while destroying the spirit and language of our God-given Constitution. We must ALL turn from our self-indulgences and excesses. We must ALL return to the God of the Bible, and to the godly, biblical wisdom of the Constitution that He alone has granted to us.
With the blessed election of Paul Ryan to take on the duties of Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, it is incumbent upon all U.S. citizens to pitch in and begin tightening our belts and that we might repair our Nation. I just sent the following message to my U.S. Representative Joe Courtney and my U.S. Senators Murphy and Blumenthal, because we are in such desperate moral, spiritual, and financial trouble in our Nation.
"I most strenuously urge you to support and work with Speaker Paul Ryan in the desperate need for the overhaul of most of our current government programs. We have had close to 100 years of increasing government size and dependency. We MUST return the nation to the people, so that each citizen can and shall exercise more authority and responsibility for her/his own life. We MUST return to a literal interpretation of our Constitution so that freedom and opportunity can return to this Nation. Thank you for your time and consideration."

God's View of False Prophets & False Followers
Jeremiah 23:9-40
9 Mine heart within me is broken because of the prophets; all my bones shake; I am like a drunken man, and like a man whom wine hath overcome, because of the LORD, and because of the words of his holiness.
10 For the land is full of adulterers; for because of swearing the land mourneth; the pleasant places of the wilderness are dried up, and their course is evil, and their force is not right.
11 For both prophet and priest are profane; yea, in my house have I found their wickedness, saith the LORD.
12 Wherefore their way shall be unto them as slippery ways in the darkness: they shall be driven on, and fall therein: for I will bring evil upon them, even the year of their visitation, saith the LORD.

Lest We Fall, Also
Consider carefully what God said to Israel in the days of Jeremiah the prophet, lest we repeat their sins and similarly displease God with our sins, both, personally and as a nation.
Jeremiah 22:21 - 22:22
I spake unto thee in thy prosperity; [but] thou saidst, I will not hear. This [hath been] thy manner from thy youth, that thou obeyedst not my voice.
The wind shall eat up all thy pastors, and thy lovers shall go into captivity: surely then shalt thou be ashamed and confounded for all thy wickedness.
Jeremiah 22:21 - 22:22

Avoid The Errors Of Our Ancestors
Do NOT rebel,
... by being wise in your own eyes.
Do NOT be stubborn,
... by rejecting the counsel of God.
Do NOT be as our ancestors,
...who worshipped themselves,
... more than they did God,
... to their own destruction.
Jeremiah Chapter 22:8-9
"And many nations shall pass by this city, and they shall say every man to his neighbour, Wherefore hath the LORD done thus unto this great city?
"Then they shall answer, Because they have forsaken the covenant of the LORD their God, and worshipped other gods, and served them."
1. Whether we admit that sin exists, or not...
2. Whether we admit that God exists, or not...
3. Whether we admit that God has already provided the only plan of salvation, or not...
... there is ONE and ONLY ONE WAY out of our sinful predicament,
and THAT ALONE will provide us with eternal life, starting right now. Trust God and His Christ, and LIVE!

The Brightest Future Is Yet To Come!
The past is behind us. Though we still remember it, there is nothing that we can do about the past, besides accept it and learn from it. If we dwell in regrets about it, we allow our life force and spirit to be hampered from learning, growing, and doing better in our present.
The present is our proving ground. This is the only time and place where we are tested and allowed to learn from history and God, to see whom we choose to emulate, and what we decide to put into practice.

Gallup Poll Shows NRA MORE Popular Than Obama or Hillary
The following survey results sound great, to any citizen interested in human rights, BUT, NOW, start thinking "outside the box" and think of all the millions of concerned, law-abiding citizens whom Gallup never surveyed!
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2015/10/22/poll-nra-more-popular-than-barack-obama-and-hillary-clinton/?intcmp=hpbt3
https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=gallup+poll+show+nra+more+popular+than+hillary+clinton+or+obama
There is no morally or spiritually justifiable reason for law-abiding people to continue to live or act in fear or willful ignorance. BUT, ...it IS time to call everyone to repentance from past errors, fears, and lethargy. Real courage is doing what is right in spite of circumstances, and without regard for one's personal profit or safety, as proven by our Founders. Had they not laid their lives on the line to frame our Nation, we would not be here today! Come on, Citizens, embrace the real cost of real freedom from tyranny. God did not create us in His image so that we could sit around coddled and pampered, or lustful and griping. Life comes with a purpose and a mission, assigned to each of us by God Himself. Read His Word, the Bible, and read our Constitution! Discover His plan for your life!
It is HIGH time for each of us to pick up our respective civil harness and responsibly, personally, shoulder it. The salvation of these United States of America requires that each and every one of us do our spiritual, moral, and civic duties, to help pull this Nation's wagon out of the moral, spiritual, and political mire into which we have allowed the U.S.A. to sink so deeply.
The results of that Gallup survey proves my long-standing point that the further decay or potential resurrection of these United States of America lies not nearly so much in the hands of politicians but that it definitely is firmly within the hands of "We, the People", even as our Founding Documents so clearly stated and proved. Our Forebears even went so far as to proclaim these things before our Creator, whom they boldly and righteously declared to us, their posterity. Any of the on-going, and ever-popular, whining, grumbling, fear, and finger pointing will only serve to further expedite the ruin of our Nation. Only godly repentance, and labors that are righteous and fruitful in His eyes, can save our Nation.
Despite our internal destroyers and detractors, WE CAN work to fix these United States of America, through personal repentance before God and His Christ, personal sacrifice of all that is needed to make this Nation work constitutionally, and as much personal hard work as necessary, dedicating our whole lives to the Word of God and the Constitution's Bible-based principles on which this Nation was founded.
We, the citizens of these United States of America, can not afford to continue to be driven by lust, greed, fear, the love of money, or willful ignorance of God and His Word. Without our express personal desire and determination to turn ourselves and our Nation to the One True and Living God, and to the Constitution which He has granted to us, we shall surely condemn the U.S.A. to a swift descent into hellish things that are far worse than our Nation has ever known or seen (something that can easily be confirmed by a careful and prayerful study of the Bible, once we have trusted Him). Therefore, let us resolve to repent and work to turn ourselves and the U.S.A. away from sure destruction and toward the real life that is described and ordered to us by God's Word and our Constitution.

If Is a Great Word
If is a great word, providing opportunity, hope, and the promise of correction of wrongs. That is especially true when it comes from the mouth of God Almighty.
Jeremiah 18:7-10
7 At what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to pluck up, and to pull down, and to destroy it;
8 If that nation, against whom I have pronounced, turn from their evil, I will repent of the evil that I thought to do unto them.
9 And at what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to build and to plant it;
10 If it do evil in my sight, that it obey not my voice, then I will repent of the good, wherewith I said I would benefit them.

Shall We Trust Our Flesh That Dies, or Trust Life In God's Christ?
Jeremiah 17:1-11
1 The sin of Judah is written with a pen of iron, and with the point of a diamond: it is graven upon the table of their heart, and upon the horns of your altars;
2 Whilst their children remember their altars and their groves by the green trees upon the high hills.
3 O my mountain in the field, I will give thy substance and all thy treasures to the spoil, and thy high places for sin, throughout all thy borders.
4 And thou, even thyself, shalt discontinue from thine heritage that I gave thee; and I will cause thee to serve thine enemies in the land which thou knowest not: for ye have kindled a fire in mine anger, which shall burn for ever.
5 Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.
6 For he shall be like the heath in the desert, and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land and not inhabited.
7 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is.
8 For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.
9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?
10 I the LORD search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.
11 As the partridge sitteth on eggs, and hatcheth them not; so he that getteth riches, and not by right, shall leave them in the midst of his days, and at his end shall be a fool.

Actions of Most US Politicians Prove They Support Mass Murder
The recent vote by the U.S. Congress (which will probably be approved and signed by the President) continues funding for Planned Parenthood's butchery of human babies. This action is further proof that our leaders really do NOT care one bit about any kind of mass murder that occurs in our Nation. Unholy politicians conveniently play politics with the firearms issue and yet have poured hundreds of millions, or even billions, of dollars into funding the hitlerian slaughter of our unborn children. ANY legislator, governor, president, judge, or citizen who approves, supports, or funds abortion is proving that they actively agree that premeditated murder is a good thing. They are therefore guilty of that sin by virtue of their support of it, or their refusal to work to stop it. Avoiding our moral duty does not obviate one's responsibility, as hiding, ignoring, or other means of trying to avoid direct action are decisions and actions in and of themselves. Every decision and every action has consequences, and God always sees what we do and what we refuse to do. When people approve of one form of premeditated murder, then they have opened the door for other people to justify the same. It logically follows that when the standards of God have been cast off in favor of relativistic justifications, a door opens for anyone to justify their own desire to kill large numbers of other people, as well.
IF our so-called leaders REALLY cared about human suffering and death, they would immediately set to work to STOP the abortion mills around our Nation. BUT, our so-called leaders continue to approve, protect, AND FUND the abortion killing zones that have slaughtered over 60 MILLION babies since the unholy Supreme Court approved Roe v. Wade.
Such politicians and other similarly immoral people are running in circles shrieking about firearms control, even though they have approved and allowed millions upon millions more children to be slaughtered by abortion than by firearms. In fact, MILLIONS more children have been killed by abortion than all the mass shootings combined, and continue to be butchered. Furthermore, the abortions mills of our Nation have executed millions more innocent children than the grand total of all people killed in all the wars in which our Nation has engaged since its founding!!
It is the bane of our Nation that the public continues to approve the monstrous sin of butchering millions and millions of our own innocent children. Such moral corruption is eating the heart, mind, and soul out of our people. Yet, morally corrupted people continue to make a huge stink about the few people who occasionally killed with firearms. Few? you say? Yes! Compared to abortions, the mass shootings in our Nation consist of a paltry few people being killed.
I mean no disrespect to the dead, for the dead NOW know exactly what I mean, even as Jesus pointed out concerning a certain dead rich man's ability to discern the truth that he'd ignored in life. I also do NOT intend to provoke the suffering of their families. BUT, when the bonfire of public outrage is set ablaze concerning a few people killed in shootings, why are we ALL not making a proportionately huge conflagration about all the millions of butchered babies who have been executed across our Nation? The less that we do to stop the sin of abortion the more that we are going to answer to God for all those millions of premeditated murders of our unborn children. We must repent of the evil of abortion if we every hope to see peace and domestic tranquility in our homes, streets, and government. IF we turn from this sin to God, then we shall find His hope, peace, and true domestic tranquility.

Oregon Shootings Prove Human Nature Problem, NOT Firearms
I am completely disgusted with the gross negligence of those who call themselves leaders in the U.S.A. We have an egregious lack of effective moral leadership in these United States of America. This is especially noteworthy after so many public rantings that follow the most recent mass murder in Oregon. As an citizen of the U.S.A., I am FURIOUS with the ALL the people who are blindly screaming that firearms are a problem in our society, as those whiners fail to address the violent sinful nature of mankind that commits such heinous crimes against us all.
BEFORE SHOOTING OFF THEIR OWN MOUTHS, THE ANTI-GUN CROWD SHOULD REALLY LISTEN TO WHAT THE MURDERER SAID BEFORE and WHILE HE SHOT HIS VICTIMS!!
The only other thing, else, that I'm going to say about his demented, cold-blooded, premeditated, selfishly motivated, murders and assaults is that IF the anti-gun crowd cannot see that evil man's wholly corrupt sin nature and corrupted humanity playing to their audience, and for their entertainment, then those willfully ignorant anti-gun people are damning themselves to repeat such incidents until the end of the world, whether there are any firearms present or not.
I salute each and every soul who suffered or died in that violence, especially those who stood and died for their faith in Jesus Christ. Their experience is a paltry foretaste of what the Bible says is yet to come.

God Warns About False Prophets & False Religions
Deuteronomy 13:1-18
1 If there arise among you a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, and giveth thee a sign or a wonder,
2 And the sign or the wonder come to pass, whereof he spake unto thee, saying, Let us go after other gods, which thou hast not known, and let us serve them;
3 Thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams: for the LORD your God proveth you, to know whether ye love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul.

2 And the sign or the wonder come to pass, whereof he spake unto thee, saying, Let us go after other gods, which thou hast not known, and let us serve them;
3 Thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams: for the LORD your God proveth you, to know whether ye love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul.
4 Ye shall walk after the
LORD your God, and fear him, and keep his commandments, and obey his voice, and
ye shall serve him, and cleave unto him.
5 And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to death; because he hath spoken to turn you away from the LORD your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed you out of the house of bondage, to thrust thee out of the way which the LORD thy God commanded thee to walk in. So shalt thou put the evil away from the midst of thee.
