The Latest Threat to America's Homeland Security

[Warning...the following article is probably being monitored by a watchdog group or groups somewhere. And if you are one, please read I Timothy 2:1-4 and know we are not your enemy. We love and pray for you!]

With Mexican drug cartel gangs in Atlanta and Ha mas terrorist training camps throughout the U.S., you would think America's Homeland Security would have better things to be concerned about than Christians.

Yesterday, the news carried a story about the head of America's Homeland Security's concern from what she called the growing threat from the "Extreme Conservative Right" movement. Believe me, she wasn't referring to "abortion clinic bombers." She is referring to you and I, evangelical Christians who believe what God's Word says about abortion, homosexuality, pornography, and other prevalent social issues over what mainstream culture says and believes. This statement is just one more among a growing number that are made by government leaders feeling as if they need to warn the public against we Christians who really believe God's Word and have the audacity to state what it believes in public. Personally, I would think that Homeland Security would have thousands of true extremists groups to worry about before Christian Conservative-Right groups, but I guess not. Of course, the real reason they are concerned about us is the influence that American pulpits still wield throughout this nation on any given Sunday morning. And not only that, but the persuasive powers of Christians in public mediums on radio, television, and especially on this particular one...the Internet. My guess is eventually they will try to limit and if possible extinguish our voices all together so that theirs is the only ones that are heard by the public masses.

This is just another sign of the rapidly growing Anti-Christ spirit of our day. It's just sad the we now see and hear it so openly spoken among our U.S. government leaders which is paid for by our tax dollars. Am I worried? No. I'm not even concerned about it. You and I know what our future is and even though we may go through a few trials on the way...better things are ahead for God's church. Again, these are exciting days. People are hungry for the gospel message. Jesus will soon return. Satan knows he doesn't have much time left and that's why his kingdom is so worried about us. So what else is new?
