By Bill Wilson Freedom, government, and the vultures of satan

The secular humanists, communists, socialists, homosexuals, and Islamists have reached such a critical mass in all branches of our government that the vultures of satan are circling as the heartbeat of Freedom in America grows faint. Politicians have used Sandy Hook Elementary School as the final nail in the 2nd Amendment coffin. Vice President Biden floated the trial balloon that the occupant of the Oval Office would use Executive Order to undermine the venerable Constitutional Right to bear arms. It was met by the media as something brilliant, by a disbelieving gasp from strict Constitutional constructionists, and by a great YAWN from most of the American public. The trap is set.

Never mind that deaths caused by traffic accidents are three times more than those caused by firearms–32,993 and 9,203 respectively–according to the government’s latest figures. Never mind that deaths from drunk drivers (10,228) were more than those caused by firearms. Never mind that American taxpayers subsidized Planned Parenthood by $524.4 million in 2011, which in turn legally murdered a preborn citizen every 94 seconds–333,964. There is no regard from this kettle of vultures for the self evident truths that all men are “endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness” unless it involves leveraging crisis to abscond those rights.

Galatians 5:1 says, “Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.” In its context, this verse is the declarative statement after a discussion about those who were born of the “freewoman”, not the “bondwoman.” That we are born of the promise by accepting Christ as stated in Chapter 3:26, “For ye are all the children of YHVH God by faith in Christ Jesus.” Despite revisionist history, the Pilgrims and Jamestown Settlers came to America for religious and economic freedom. There was a fervent belief that God provided this land, blessed it, prospered it, set it aside, that the light of Christ would be shown through it. It is this freedom that the government is now trying to take away.

If these godless deceivers in the government are allowed to use non-Constitutional means such as Executive Orders to scuttle even one of the Bill of Rights, they will use that precedent to do away with them all. Then those Christians who say we should not concern ourselves with government are going to find out first hand why the Founding Fathers were so passionate about giving Christians a say. Worshiping freely; Being able to defend your family; Having privacy; Saying what’s on your mind; It’s all in jeopardy. So long, though, that there is a heartbeat of freedom, the Kettle doesn’t become a Wake. Freedom’s life support is what lives in you as a citizen of God’s Kingdom–because He is a God of FREEDOM.

Have A Blessed And Powerful Day,

Bill Wilson
