Gospel of John 09.vp

Session 3 Our Savior, Our Judge, and Our Bread (John 4-6)

Where Is Jesus of Nazareth in the Current Christian American Paradigm?

Christian America can’t be ignored. Viva Bush! Christian America has spoken! We will not tolerate “gay marriages,” the murder of human beings via abortion and stem-cell research, or the violation of our fundamental right to free speech, i.e., removing prayer from schools, the Ten Commandments from government establishments, the phrase “under God” from our Pledge of Allegiance. Unbelievers, secularists, homosexuals, evolutionists, etc.: You are the minority. Democrats are frantically scurrying around trying to figure out how to make the party more relevant to mainstream Americans and keep it from slipping into perpetual minority-party status. Here’s their answer: Realize that there is one God, that he sets boundaries for us to live by, and that stepping over those boundaries will bring consequences each and every time.

Quit catering to Hollywood and the progressives, and start standing for what is moral.
