As For Me and My House

Candidly, I have not written in a while because I've been in a funk. I caught Rabbi Jonathan Cahn on TV sharing devastating stats confirming we (Conservatives) have lost the culture war - the battle for the hearts and minds of America.

New York city has legalized a “third gender” on birth certificates. (1) Not that long ago, over 40 states passed resolutions supporting God's definition of marriage – between one man and one woman. According to the Public Religious Research Institute, a majority of Democrats, Republicans, blacks, whites, Latinos, Catholics, and white mainline Protestant denominations support same-sex marriage. (2) The majority of evangelical Millennials support redefining marriage.

Years ago, LGBTQ activists claimed openly homosexual leaders admitted into the Boy Scouts had no intention to change the organization from its founding on Christian principles. As it turned out, first on the LGBTQ agenda was to remove “morally straight” for the Scout Oath. (3)

“On my honor, I will do my best. To do my duty to God and my country and to obey the Scout Law; To help other people at all times; To keep myself physically strong, mentally awake and morally straight.”

We are living in a pretty sick time when 'morally straight' is deemed hateful and offensive.

Recently, “Boy” has been removed from the name of the organization, changed to “Scouts BSA” to appeal to girls. The Girl Scouts are in a huff. They are suing the Boy Scouts because they feel the Boy Scouts is now in competition with them for girls. (4) The Girl Scouts has also been changed, infected with radical feminism – promoting transgenderism, lesbianism, and abortion. Girl Scouts of Western Washington returned a $100,000 donation, a fourth of their annual fund-raising goal, because the donor requested that their gift not be used to support transgender girls. (5)

Leftists' war on gender includes absurdly claiming that having separate organizations for boys and girls is hateful and discriminatory.

The Bible says in the last days, man will seek to change nature, moving toward what is unnatural. We are seeing this happen. At first, leftists claimed they only desired tolerance for the unnatural. Today, anyone who does not fully approve the unnatural is high-tech executed.

After 34 years, Disney World has canceled its annual Christian Music Festival. (6)

Six to ten thousand churches close each year in America, over 100 per week. (7)

In Dover, Ohio, a Nativity scene and a Ten Commandments display were removed from public property after an atheist group complained. (8)

The new “Batwoman” TV series will feature the first lesbian superhero on television. (9)

'Whiteness Forum' seeks to ban the Christian cartoon “Veggie Tales,” claiming it is racist. (10)

A Virginia middle school banned Christmas songs with 'Jesus' from their winter concert. (11)

Children seeking to transgender themselves has skyrocketed; 4,500 percent for girls and 1, 250 percent for boys. (12) My wife Mary alerted me to this horrifying truth. U.S. doctors are performing double mastectomies on healthy 13-year-old girls who think they want to be boys. (13) Leftists have launched a war on gender which far too many Americans have either embraced or are afraid to talk about or push back against.

Over the holidays, I will be celebrating with various family members. Many of them see nothing wrong with practically every TV show, movie, and commercial promoting homosexuality. If I dare mention the media blitz intended to normalize what the Bible says is wrong, I will be viewed as the crazy, intolerant, and hateful old patriarch who is out-of-touch with the times.

After listening to Rabbi Cahn describe our nation's moral and cultural decline, I felt discouraged, heartbroken, and angry. Rabbi Cahn encouraged Christians to remain faithful, fighting and standing up for what is right. Still, I couldn't shake wondering why I should continue writing articles when a majority of Americans embrace the leftists' evil agenda.

Angrily, I questioned why stupid parents gleefully support drag queens reading LGBTQ stories to their children at libraries? (14) Any idiot can see that leftists are purposely sexing our kids as early as pre-school with homosexual Christmas children books like “Santa's Husband.” (15)

An Austin, Texas teacher at a poverty level school expressed her frustration. The students struggle with reading, writing, and math. And yet, the school principal made it a top priority for teachers to instruct students to embrace all things LGBTQ. The frustrated teacher who sounded the alarm said she was tasked with explaining and presenting homosexuality in a positive light to pre-k 4-year-olds. (16)

Frustrated, I asked God, why do the wicked prosper? Discouraged men of God in the Bible asked God the same question. God revealed to his faithful servants that the wicked prosper only for a season and will eventually receive their just reward. (Psalms 73)

God instructs, “Trust in the Lord and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture. Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.” (Psalms 37:3-4)

I repent from allowing myself to become discouraged and not trusting God. I will continue fighting back, standing up for what is right. Leftists are evil masters of deception, portraying themselves as all-powerful, winning everything. They are not.

I cannot, nor do I desire to control others. “But, as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” (Joshua 24:15)
