Sex and Hell - consider sex issues in the light of the Bible

Is it important and worth while to consider sex issues in the light of the Bible today?

If one values one's life and future, one will take seriously what God says about sex.

***1 Cor 6: 9 ¶ Do you not know that unrighteous persons shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not err: neither sex sinners [Ezek23], . . . nor those who have sex with another's woman &/or those who leave their wives and marry another, . . nor male catamites &/or prostitutes who allow themselves to be homosexually used , nor homosexuals, nor pederasts , 10 nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor abusive persons, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

Rev 21:8 But the . . . detestably vile, . . . sexually immoral, . . . —their share/portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death.

Why did the God who is patient and kind Love

create Hell and Hell fire?

Our God has NO PLEASURE in the death of the wicked.

***Eze 33:11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?

Abba Father does not get his jollies by barbecuing sinners or eternity. Hell is a function of the nature of God and suffering in Hell in a matter of incompatability.

Our God is a holy consuming fire:

***De 4:24 For Jehovah thy God is a consuming fire, a jealous *God.

***De 9:3 Know then this day, that Jehovah thy God is he that goeth over before thee, a consuming fire; he will destroy them, and he will cast them down before thee,

***Isa 33:14 The sinners in Zion are afraid; trembling hath surprised the hypocrites: Who among us shall dwell with the consuming fire? who among us shall dwell with everlasting flames?

***Heb 12:29 For also our God is a consuming fire.

What happens when you put "gold, silver, precious stones" in the fire? They remain gold, silver and precious stones.

When Shedrack and Meshack and Abednego were in the fire with Jesus they remained who and as they were because Jesus, by their faith in Him as Jehovah-Jesus, had made them compatible with the fire and His fire did them no harm.

What happens when you put wood, hay, grass, stubble and straw in the fire? They are consumed.

The guards who threw Shedrack and Co. in the fire suffered death by the fire because Jesus had not made them compatible with Himself, because they hadn't been made compatible by faith in Jehovah-Jesus.

***1 Cor 3: 11 ¶ For other foundation can no man lay besides that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. 12 Now if any one build upon this foundation, gold, silver, precious stones, wood, grass, straw, 13 the work of each shall be made manifest; for the day shall declare it, because it is revealed in fire; and the fire shall try the work of each what it is. 14 If the work of any one which he has built upon the foundation shall abide, he shall receive a reward. 15 If the work of any one shall be consumed, he shall suffer loss, but *he* shall be saved, but so as through the fire.

***1Pe 1:7* that the proving of your faith, much more precious than of gold which perishes, though it be proved by fire, be found to praise and glory and honour in the revelation of Jesus Christ:

The fire that touched Isaiah's lips did not hurt him but purged and cleansed him.

***Isaiah 6: 6 And one of the seraphim flew unto me, and he had in his hand a glowing coal, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar; 7 and he made it touch my mouth, and said, Behold, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin expiated.

The earth shall be purged and cleansed by His fire

***2Pe 3:7 But the present heavens and the earth by his word are laid up in store, kept for fire unto a day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men. . . . 12 waiting for and hastening the coming of the day of God, by reason of which the heavens, being on fire, shall be dissolved, and the elements, burning with heat, shall melt?

Hell and the Lake of Fire is not made for Father and His angels to get their jollies watching a sinners barbecue. Hell and the Lake of Fire causes the death (lack of sinful activity) of sinners and continuously causes the dissolving and burning destruction of the sin of the sinners. At the very least, the torment of Hell for the sinner is being prevented from doing the sins they want to do, and the continuing destruction of all the sin they will and desire to do. Can you imagine forever knowing what you love, long and want to do and never being able to do what you love, long for or want? That is torment. Suffering that kind of torment for ages is Hell.

The rash of murder suicides surely has resulted in the murderers being very surprised that their death wasn't the end of their conscious existence.

*** 1. 1 John 3:15 "Everyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life residing in him."

***Revelation 21:8 "But the cowards, unbelievers, vile, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars—their share will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death."

Such murderers have an eternity of wanting to do evil but never being allowed to do it, anger and frustration at not being able to change or improve their situation of torment.

Their victims suffered briefly as the murderers killed them, but for the murderers "is reserved the blackness of darkness forever!" [Jude 1]

What a fate, the blackness of darkness in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur!!!!

Hard to believe that Hell could be a place of fiery darkness? It was hard for me to understand until I saw a Natural Geographic video about underwater volcanoes, where it showed flaming lava glowing brightly in total darkness thousands of feet below the surface of the ocean. There it was, fiery darkness, with all that one would expect of fire and darkness. The darkness was so thick that all one could see was the fiery lava. Not a good place to be.

Hell is a place of fiery darkness in which is contained, isolated and neutralized total falsehood, hatred, selfishness, chaos, confusion, disorder, unending misery, frustration, malice, envy, jealousy, murderous intent, strife, deceit, treachery, ill will, cruelty, backbiting, gossip, slander, hatefulness, insolence, arrogance, stupid boasting; disobedience, and disrespect, where peopleexist without understanding, consciences, faithfulness and areheartless, loveless and merciless.

Rom 1

***Matthew 8:12 But the [unbelieving] sons of the kingdom [of Israel] will be thrown into the outer darkness. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. . . . 25:30 And throw this unprofitable slave into the outer darkness. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.'

***Luke 13:28 There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth in that place, when you see Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and all the prophets in the kingdom of God but yourselves thrown out [into the outer darkness].

***Revelation 16: 10And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain, 11And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and repented not of their deeds.

***Jude 1: 12 These [people] are spots in your love-feasts, feasting together [with you] without fear, pasturing themselves; clouds without water, carried along by [the] winds; autumnal trees, without fruit, twice dead, rooted up; 13 raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shames; wandering stars, to whom has been reserved the gloomy blackness of darkness for eternity.

After a close examination of the data available in www land about the "after death" experiences of people who have been medically certified as dead - - no brain waves, no heart beat, no blood pressure, no breathing - - most objective observers would come to the conclusion that the death of one's body does not end one's existence. Based on such data and the many supernatural miracles in my own life, I believe Jesus that there is a Heaven, for those who want be with Jesus in His Kingdom, and Hell, for those who don't want His kindly compassionate Love, enlightening LIght, liberating Truth, everlasting Life and wonderful Way.

What a tragedy to try to escape one's problems in this world only to land up for thousands of years in a place devoid of kindness, compassion, Love, enlightenment, Light, Truth and purposeful living - - - a place of unending misery, frustration, malice, envy, jealousy, murderous intent, strife, deceit, treachery, ill will, cruelty, backbiting, gossip, slander, hatefulness, insolence, arrogance, stupid boasting; disobedience, and disrespect where people exist without understanding, consciences, faithfulness and are heartless, loveless and merciless. What a horrible surprise for those who do great evil and/or kill others, and then kill themselves, only to find themselves in such a Hell for ages.

Jesus enlightens every human being that comes into this world (John 1:9) and gives everyone in the world the opportunity to choose (John 16:7-11), Loved all people enough to let them torture His body to death to take the death penalty for all and all their incompatability with God so that anyone who so wills can Live with Him forever, and He respects our choices even though He has no pleasure in the suffering of those who reject Him.

Eternal torment? Sadhu Sundar Singh is the only godly and Spirit filled man I ever knew who believed that the "forever" of Hell was that Hell would last until the "age of the ages"

***Re 19:3 And again they said, Alleluia. And her smoke rose up for ever and ever [eis tous aionas ton aionon = from the ages to the age, from the eternities to the eternity].

***Re 20:10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever [eis tous aionas ton aionon].

Apparently to him the age of the ages was the time when "all things shall be subdued unto Him" with the idea that after thousands of years of Hell's fiery darkness, even the devil, the demons and all in Hell would willingly be brought into submission and obedience to God -----------------

***1 Cor 15: 24 Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have abolished all [other] rule and all [other] authority and power. 25 For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet. 26 The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death. 27 For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under him. 28* And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.

-------------------------- a time when Jesus had "put all enemies under his feet" and the Son Himself is subject to Father. The problem I have with that idea is that Jesus has always been voluntarily "subject unto Him that put all things under Him

The problem with that meaning is that it would have Jesus living only from the ages to the age, from the eternities to the eternity, at which time He would allegedly cease to be a Being separate and distinct from Father.

***Re 15:7 And one of the four beasts gave unto the seven angels seven golden vials full of the wrath of God, who liveth for ever and ever.

***Re 5:14 And the four beasts said, Amen. And the four and twenty elders fell down and worshipped him that liveth for ever and ever.

***Re 10:6 And sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven,

That meaning would have glory being given to Father from the ages to the age, from the eternities to the eternity, at which time He would allegedly cease to be glorified, unless it is understood that in the forever age He is forever be glorified.

***Php 4:20 Now unto God and our Father be glory for ever and ever [from the ages to the ages, from the eternities to the eternities]. Amen.

***1Ch 29:10 Wherefore David blessed the LORD before all the congregation: and David said, Blessed be thou, LORD God of Israel our father, for ever and ever.

According to Singh's view, God would be our God only to the age of the ages. . .

***Ps 48:14 For this God is our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide even unto death.

. . . and that Jehovah-Jesus would only reign to the age of the ages.

***Ex 15:18 The LORD shall reign for ever and ever.

I believe a better understanding of that passage would be that TO THE AGE OF THE AGES signifies UNTIL THE FOREVER AGE, or to the culminating and final AGE OF THE AGES, which I would understand to be when "the Son also Himself [shall] be subject unto Him that put all things under Him, that God may be all in all." In that final forever age, God would be all in all forever. Our God is ETERNAL, the Spirit is ETERNAL, our King is ETERNAL and His power and Godhead is ETERNAL.

***De 33:27 The eternal God is thy refuge, . . .

***Heb 9:14 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

***1Ti 1:17 Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.

***Ro 1:20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: . ."

So "eis tous aionas ton aionon", from the ages to the age, from the eternities to the eternity, would indicate that our God is the God of the forever eternal age when He will be "all in all." What does that mean? I don't believe a human's finite mind can come any where close to understanding that.

The Most High God loved the people of the world so very much that He sent and gave His only Son born of a woman, God with us, to be our Passover Lamb to cover and bear the penalty of our sins if we sincerely and genuinely call and depend on King Jesus of Bethlehem ALONE to save us from our sins and present us covered with His perfect righteousness to Abba Father in Heaven.

The Bible gives at least 22 reasons why He allows the suffering experienced in this world. But before we get to them, we must deal with the One we feel is responsible for the suffering in this world. The God who the Most High God in our universe characterizes Himself as Father and Love, the Love described in 1 Cor 13. That means the One who has allowed your suffering, the suffering you are concerned about, the One who controls the extent of the suffering, is One who is characterized by longsuffering, patience, kindness; who is free of envy, evil jealousy, vain boasting, vainglory, haughtiness, conceit, evil pride, rudeness, and selfishness. He is not touchy or fretful or resentful; does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness, but rejoices when right and truth prevail, and bears up under anything and everything that comes, is ever ready to believe the best of every person, hopes under all circumstances, endures everything [without weakening], and never fails [never fades out or becomes obsolete or comes to an end]. He has promised that He will work all things together for the good of those who obediently love Him and are called according to [His] design and purpose. Any suffering He allows His children to endure is under His control for the good of His Children.

According to Eph. 1:11 everything is under His control because He works EVERYTHING according to His own will. The world is never out of control. Even though Satan is allowed to be ruler of this world, and he and his demonic angels work and will in people to do the evil they want to do, the book of Job shows us that Satan can't do anything to God's people without God's permission. You may ask, "Why does Jesus let Satan do evil things and work in people to do evil?" How would you feel if your mom said not to taste the desert she just made, and you tried to disobey her but everytime you tried you couldn't move?

How would you feel if your buddy hit you too hard, and every time you tried to hit her back, you froze? How would you feel if some little kid cussed you out, trash talked you and ridiculed you in public in front of your best friends, and ever time you tried to say something hard back or do something to the kid you froze? How would you feel if someone you thought was your friend ruined your best coat and then stole money out of your wallet, thinking you wouldn't see, and you tried to get even but when you tried to do something to your buddy, you became paralyzed?

You wouldn't like that kind of world, where you couldn't do the bad things you want to do. You would feel like a prisoner, or like you were tied up. Jesus made this world so you could choose to not do His will, and choose to do the bad things you want to do, or if you wanted to, you could choose to obey Jesus because you Love Him. This world is made so that you can choose between doing the good and doing the evil, because He doesn't want robots or slaves. He wants people to choose Him because they Love Him. In the meantime, dads will choose to do evil to their daughters, Hitler chose to have killed 20 million people, Stalin chose to have killed 30 million and Mao chose to have killed over 50 million. American mothers have chosen to kill by abortion over 40 million babies since 1960. The beauty is that He has promised that every human being who comes into the world will be enlightened by Jesus before they die (Jn 1:9), even if they haven't been born yet. So everyone has a chance to choose Jesus before they die. He gives us all the opportunity to choose (John 16:7-11).

Dear friend, please remember the point about 1 Cor. 10:13*, He doesn't allow you to be tried more than you can bear, because you are stronger, have a better understanding of spiritual warfare and a deeper faith, the trials will be greater--but never more than you can bear. Consider the trials of John the Baptist and all the apostles except John. They all died violent deaths at the hands of those who hate them, but never more than they could bear. [1 Cor. 10: 12 So let him who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall. 13 No temptation has taken you but [what is] common to man; but God [is] faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, but with the temptation also will make a way to escape, so that you may be able to bear [it].]

An exercise is no exercise if it doesn't challenge you at the point where you have to strain and go aerobic, sometimes painfully. The same with "spiritual" muscles, the trial has to produce stress, strain and even pain for you to become stronger, more capable, more useful and fruitful. The fruitful vine looks terrible when it is pruned, and it would feel terrible if it could feel, but because it is pruned it has the potential of being more fruitful, and I know you want more fruit of the Spirit in your life. I know that you want to compassionately cherish God and others even more than you do now, and that's how you get there.

This life is boot camp and a war, which, thank God, is shortened for our sakes. Our resurrected life with Jesus Christ is worth the struggle. All of our experiences in this mortal life can be used of God to prepare us to help, comfort, teach, encourage, edify etc others better when we are given the opportunity to be his delegated agents on earth as he rules from Jerusalem in fulfillment of His promises to King David. To rule the earth with Him enthroned in Jerusalem for a 1000 years (Rev. 20: 2-7), to walk around as His agents enabled to raise the dead, open the eyes of the blind, to bind up the broken limbs and hearts, to counsel the broken hearted with wisdom inspired of God, to feed the hungry, to clothe the naked, to free the captives, to teach in power the lost how they can be found etc etc etc etc. I can hardly wait!

If you have suffered maritally, please consider attending a Christian divorce/grief recovery support group. You are still deeply grieving inside over your ex and those "saints" that so deeply and carnally broke your heart. I know that I desperately needed and greatly benefited from the free one I attended at Del Cerro So. Bapt. Church. It was critical in my recovery and in my readiness to be healed and in my learning how and where I needed to grow, to forgive my ex, and to prepare my heart for my next. Many churches and ministries have free support groups that are usually extremely helpful. Please call around for times and places and pray about attending and let the Lord minister to you through the saints. But why does He allow us to suffer, to grieve so deeply and have hearts so broken than you can feel the pain throughout your chest, so depressed that it seems a struggle to survive, grief so deep that you never know what will cause the tears to flow next? Here are some that I have become aware of and they are all for our good. Please consider them and, in each, ask if its goal was accomplished in your life.

We know how the Most High Father let Jesus' body be tortured to death to die in our place for our sins, because of our sins, so that He could be both Just in punishing sin, and Merciful in offering us forgiveness on the basis of relying on Jesus substitutionary and sacrificial death for us. The Spirit tells us that Jesus suffered much for us in His human body so that He would learn, like we have to, that it is best to obey (Heb 5:8,9).

God, The Father, the Consuming Fire, the Most High God sent His only Son born of woman to bear our death penalty, allowing Him to suffer terribly. For about 19 hours the Father allowed His Son to be falsely accused, unjustly tried, verbally abused, physically abused, spit upon, beaten, slapped, punched, slugged, tied up, led away as a prisoner, imprisoned, mocked, ridiculed, flogged Roman style with a whip made of leather strips embedded with pieces of bone or metal that brutally tore His flesh, and stripped in public (Mat 26:6-27:31). His hands and feet were nailed to a cross and for about three to six hours He was hung on a cross publicly to die a slow and exceedingly painful death, every second filled with misery suffering (Mat 27).

***1 Peter 2:19 For this is commendable, if because of conscience toward God one endures grief, suffering wrongfully. 20 For what credit is it if, when you are beaten for your faults, you take it patiently? But when you do good and suffer, if you take it patiently, this is commendable before God. 21 For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow His steps:

22 “ Who committed no sin,

Nor was deceit found in His mouth”;

23 who, when He was reviled, did not revile in return; when He suffered, He did not threaten, but committed Himself to Him who judges righteously; 24 who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness—by whose stripes you were healed. 25 For you were like sheep going astray, but have now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls. NKJV

***Heb 9: 26 . . . "But now He has appeared one time, at the end of the ages, for the removal of sin by the sacrifice of Himself. 27 And just as it is appointed for people to die once—and after this, judgment — 28 so also the Messiah, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for Him. HCSB

All of the Apostles except John died violent deaths at the hands of persecutors, and they tried to kill John but he was miraculously spared to write Revelation. The Most High Father allowed Paul to suffer terribly and Jesus gave him part of the reason, to save him from pride (2 Cor 12), teaching Him that He makes His strength perfect in our weakness, so that the credit and glory goes to the right person, to Jesus who was living in Paul and in lives in all His children. Jesus allowed Paul to suffer in - - - -

"imprisonments, [beaten] with countless stripes, and frequently [at the point of] death. 24 Five times I received from [the hands of] the Jews forty [lashes all] but one; 25 Three times I have been beaten with rods; once I was stoned. Three times I have been aboard a ship wrecked at sea; a [whole] night and a day I have spent [adrift] on the deep; 26 Many times on journeys, [exposed to] perils from rivers, perils from bandits, perils from [my own] nation, perils from the Gentiles, perils in the city, perils in the desert places, perils in the sea, perils from those posing as believers [but destitute of Christian knowledge and piety]; 27 In toil and hardship, watching often [through sleepless nights], in hunger and thirst, frequently driven to fasting by want, in cold and exposure and lack of clothing." 2 Cor 11

Jesus and the apostles made it clear that significant suffering lies in the path of anyone who becomes a child of God by faith in Jesus Christ alone to be saved from the power, presence and penalty of sin.

***" Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution."(2 Timothy 3:11-13)

***Luke 6:22 "Blessed are you when men hate you, And when they exclude you, And revile you, and cast out your name as evil, For the Son of Man’s sake. . . . 21:17 "And you will be hated by all for My name’s sake." ***John 15:19 "If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you."

So how have the children of God suffered in the past according to the Bible and Fox's Book of Martyrs? Is it like their suffering today?

***Heb 11: . . . 24 By faith Moses, when he became of age, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter, 25 choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God than to enjoy the passing pleasures of sin, 26 esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt; for he looked to the reward. 27 By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king; for he endured as seeing Him who is invisible. . . . (NKJV) Others were tortured, not accepting deliverance, that they might obtain a better resurrection. 36 Still others had trial of mockings and severely painful whippings, yes, and of chains and imprisonment. 37 They were stoned, they were sawn in two, were tempted, were slain with the sword. They wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins, being destitute, afflicted, tormented— 38 of whom the world was not worthy. They wandered in deserts and mountains, in dens and caves of the earth. 39 And all these, having obtained a good testimony through faith, did not receive the promise, 40 God having provided something better for us, that they should not be made perfect apart from us. . . . 13All these died in faith, without receiving the promises, but having seen them and having welcomed them from a distance, and having confessed that they were strangers and exiles on the earth. 14For those who say such things make it clear that they are seeking a country of their own. 15And indeed if they had been thinking of that country from which they went out, they would have had opportunity to return. 16But as it is, they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God; for He has prepared a city for them. NASB

1. The DHS labels Pro-Lifers, Veterans and Conservatives as DANGEROUS DOMESTIC TERRORISTS and what to do about it.

Dear Pro-Lifers, Veterans and Conservatives - - FYI: The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has labeled you, members of the pro-life community, returning "radicalized" veterans, and political and economy conservatives THE MOST DANGEROUS DOMESTIC TERRORISTS.

The DHS warning entitled: ''Rightwing Extremism: Current Economic and Political Climate Fueling Resurgence in Radicalization and Recruitment'' is so troubling that at first, it was hard to believe that Homeland Security could issue such a document.

But it's true. It's been verified. And make no mistake, this unconstitutional report raises serious questions about the leadership and direction of the agency charged with protecting Americans in the ongoing battle against terrorism.

Why would the Department of Homeland Security single out groups like returning veterans, political conservatives and pro-life supporters when they should be focusing on identifying and apprehending the real terrorists - like al-Qaeda - groups that have vowed to destroy America?

This characterization is not only offensive to millions of Americans who hold constitutionally-protected religious views opposing abortion, euthenasia, immorality - but also raises serious concerns about the political agenda of an agency with a mandate to protect America.

The founder of the Center for Liberty and Justice said, "I encourage you to watch my interview on FOX News to find out more about this troubling issue ... you won't believe how the government has singled out conservatives, Christians - and even our veterans - as dangerous to our country."

3. 3. Reauthorizing the Adam Walsh Child Protection and Safety Act

Hi, this letter came from Oprah.com but I encourage everyone to email it to your government official so funding for Adam's Act will continue. Thanks

Dear Senator / Representative (find email address on their websites or go to https://writerep.house.gov/writerep/welcome.shtml;

http://www.usa.gov/Contact/Elected.shtml)

I am sure you share my belief that we must do everything in our power to help protect our children from sexual predators in our communities. That is why I am asking for your help today.

I am extremely concerned about how we track registered sex offenders in our country. According to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, an estimated 100,000 sex offenders are unaccounted for and not living where they are registered. Because law enforcement agencies are too underfunded and overwhelmed to track them, these dangerous predators are free to roam undetected from state to state, targeting and re-offending more innocent children.

The Adam Walsh Child Protection and Safety Act, which was signed into law in 2006, created a National Sex Offender Registry, but recent news reports reveal most states will not be in compliance with the law by the upcoming July deadline. Supporters of the law acknowledge there are adjustments that should be made to the law, but they are adamant, as am I, that the basic purpose and spirit of Adam's act must be upheld. The act calls for a National Sex Offender Registry,

which is critical to the safety of our children.

I implore you to reexamine this law with fellow lawmakers, reauthorize it and see that it is fully funded. I realize our country's current economic crisis will not make this charge an easy one, but what could be more urgent and of greater importance than the safety and well-being of our children?

Sincerely,

4. A very bad and dangerous nomination that needs to be challenged

Take Action: Oppose Nomination of Pro-Abortion Sebelius

'The revelations that Gov. Sebelius owed back taxes and (has) deep financial ties to the abortion industry invite a serious question about her integrity.'

President Barack Obama's nominee to lead the Health and Human Services Department appears to integrity issues.

Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius has admitted tax problems, and failed to report $23,000 in campaign contributions from the notorious abortionist George Tiller, who proudly kills babies in the womb during the last three months of the mothers' pregnancy, after being asked by the Senate Finance Committee to reveal such information.

If confirmed by the full Senate, the pro-abortion governor would be able to profoundly influence federal and state policies on abortion, of conscience, bioethics, end-of-life issues, and the distribution of federal funding to abortion providers such as Planned Parenthood.

"The revelation that Gov. Sebelius owed back taxes and now the additional disclosure of her deep financial ties to the abortion industry invite a serious question about her integrity," said Tony Perkins, president of FRC Action. "What else has she not told us? What other alliances are there?"

Please write/call/email your federal representatives about your opposition to her nomination.

8. A Grandfather's Prayer Continued

***Holy Father of our risen and soon to return King Jesus Christ,

King of all Kings, I pray that the poor and

needy be rescued and delivered out of the hands of the wicked. Cause us

to learn to do well, to seek righteous and holy judgment/justice for

those who need it, gladden the oppressed, do justice to the fatherless,

plead for the widow. Please work and will in Your children and all

those involved to execute judgment/justice and righteousness, to

deliver the spoiled out of the hand of the oppressor, to do no wrong to

others, to do no violence to the stranger, homeless, the fatherless, or

the widow, and to not shed innocent blood. Please work and will in us,

Your chlldren, to visit and help orphans, widows and bereft women in

their affliction, and to keep ourselves unspotted from the world.

May King Jesus, the King of Glory and Power, rebuke, strike with ineffectiveness and

render unable to do more evil those who deny justice to the poor and

needy; those who afflict, oppress, spoil and do unjust and unrighteous

violence to others, shedding innocent blood. For victim and evil doer I

ask that you enlighten them of Your Love, Truth, Light, Life and Way;

convicting them of their sins, Your judgment on their sins, and Your

righteousness and holiness that requires such judgment; constraining

them by Your Holy Spirit, drawing them to You and granting them

repentance to the acknowledgment and acceptance of Your Love, Truth,

Light, Life and Way in Jesus Christ.

Holy Father, I accept Your Word in Luke 6 so I call on You to do in and with me that which I cannot do on my own. I ask and trust You to work and will^ in me to patiently, kindly, unselfishly and compassionately Love my enemies, to do good to those who hate me and my loved ones, to bless those who curse me, to pray for those who mistreat me and my loved ones. Merciful Father it is not naturally in me to offer my other cheek after an evil doer has hit me on the cheek; to not hold back my shirt when an evil doer takes away my coat, so I call on You to work and will^ this in me. My will is to love You enough to obey You, so work and will^ in me to give something to everyone who asks me for something, to not ask for the return of things taken away from me by an evil doer Just as you want others to do for you, do the same for them. It is impossible for me to naturally do good and lend expecting nothing in return, to be gracious and merciful to ungrateful and evil people, so I call on You to accomplish^ it in me.

^Hebrews 13:20,21; Phil 2:13; 4:13; Gal 2:20; John 15:1-5; Eph 2:8-10; 1 Cor 1:25-31

Father in Heaven, I want to Love you enough to obey Your Word in Rom 12, so please work and will^ Your Spirit fruit in me so that You enable me to rejoice in hope; be patient in affliction; be persistent in prayer.; to share with the saints in their needs; to pursue hospitality; to bless those evil doers who persecute me and my loved ones instead of cursing them. I am unable to do this on my own, so I call on You to work and will^ in me to not repay anyone evil, harm and injury for evil, harm and injury. Enable^ and work in me to do what is honorable in Your eyes, to do my part to live at peace with everyone. Please enable and work^ in me to not avenge myself, to leave room for Your wrath and vengeance, for I accept Your Word as it is written: "Vengeance belongs to Me; I will repay, says the Lord." Holy Father, by Your Holy Spirit work and will^ in me to feed my enemy if he/she is hungry, to give something to drink to my enemy if he/she is thirsty, and to conquer evil, harm and injury with Your good in Jesus Christ.

^Hebrews 13:20,21; Phil 2:13; 4:13; Gal 2:20; John 15:1-5; Eph 2:8-10; 1 Cor 1:25-31

Almighty God, work and will in us to have the courage and readiness to take a stand for You and not be co-participants in, or fellow-partakers of, the evil of those who disobey You~, even if it means we have disobey* human laws and officials; to not partake of or participate in the ungodly deeds; and to patiently, gently, humbly and respectfully reprove, confute, admonish, convict, convince and rebuke those who disobey You, telling them of the evil in which they have become ensnared~. Father, we call on You and Trust You to enable us to obey You and teach Your disciples to observe everything You have commanded us`, even if it means we have to disobey* human laws and officials, including observing Your Word about sexual morality, creation, and infanticide - killing babies in the womb.` As Your child and subject, as a citizen of Your Kingdom, I accept my responsibility, as I have opportunity and ability,

to break the bonds and chains of wickedness,

to untie the restraining ropes of enslaving, oppressive and burdensome restraints;^

to set the oppressed free,

to protect foreigners,

to unselfishly, patiently, kindly and compassionately love and provide for the foreign resident;^

to try to help and provide justice for the needy, the fatherless, the widow and the helpless;

to rescue the poor and needy from the hands of the wicked,

to rescue those wrongfully taken off to be killed, those moving toward slaughter in the womb or outside of it;^

to uphold the rights of the oppressed and the destitute,

to remove every burdensome and oppressing restraint,

to share my bread with the hungry,

to give something to drink to the thirsty,

to provide housing for the poor and homeless,

to clothe the naked when I encounter them,

to help take care of the sick and imprisoned,

to see to it that bereft women and children are taken care of,

to not ignore or neglect my own familial flesh and blood,

to rid my life of scornful and accusatory finger-pointing and malicious speaking,

to offer that with which I sustain my own life to the hungry that I encounter,

and to do my best to meet the needs of the afflicted I encounter^, even if it means we have to disobey* human laws and officials to do so.

Father, the rulers and leaders of Pagan Nineveh turned to You from their sins believing the prophetic warning of Jonah, but the rulers and leaders of America reject and dismiss as irrelevant the warnings given by Your servants in America. Because of the growing animosity and hostile behavior of most of the educators, politicians, legislators, judges, society's leaders and the influential rich of America towards Jesus, His Bible and His disciples, making themselves Your enemies and the enemies of Your disciples, I pray that You (FromPsa82:1) keep not silence, O God; hold not Your peace or be still, O God.

2For, behold, Your enemies are in tumult, and those who hate You have raised their heads. 3They lay crafty schemes against Your people and consult together against Your hidden and precious ones. 4They have said, Come, and let us wipe them out. . . [to] be in remembrance no more. 5For they have consulted together with one accord and one heart; against You they make a covenant-- 13O my God, make them like whirling dust, like stubble or chaff before the wind! 14As fire consumes the forest, and as the flame sets the mountains ablaze, 15So pursue and afflict them with Your tempest and terrify them with Your tornado or hurricane. 16Fill their faces with shame, that they may seek and inquire for Your name, O Lord. 17Let them be put to shame and dismayed . . . ; yes, let them be put to shame and [their evil] perish, 18That they may know that You, Whose name alone is the Lord, are the Most High over all the earth. 13 Make them like tumbleweed, my God, like straw before the wind. 14 As fire burns a forest, as a flame blazes through mountains, 15 so pursue them with Your tempest and terrify them with Your storm. 16 Cover their faces with shame so that they will seek Your name, LORD. 17 Let them be put to shame and terrified . . . ; let [their evil] perish in disgrace. 18 May they know that You alone— whose name is Yahweh— are the Most High [God] over all the earth.

PSALMS 37 on the life of Christians in the USA today

1 Don't make yourself worried or anxious because of evildoers, neither be envious against those who work unrighteousness .

2For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.

3Trust (lean on, rely on, and be confident) in the Lord and do good; so shall you dwell in the land and feed surely on His faithfulness, and truly you shall be fed.

4Delight yourself also in the Lord, and He will give you the desires and secret petitions of your heart.

5Commit your way to the Lord; trust (lean on, rely on, and be confident) also in Him and He will bring it to pass.

6And He will make your uprightness and right standing with God go forth as the light, and your justice and right as [the shining sun of] the noonday.

7Be still and rest in the Lord; wait for Him and patiently lean yourself upon Him. Don't make yourself worried or anxious because of him who prospers in his way, because of the man who brings wicked devices to pass.

8Cease from anger and forsake wrath; fDon't make yourself worried or anxious--it tends only to evildoing.

9For evildoers shall be cut off, but those who wait and hope and look for the Lord [in the end] shall inherit the earth.

10For yet a little while, and the evildoers will be no more; though you look with care where they used to be, they will not be found.

11But the meek [in the end] shall inherit the earth and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.

12The wicked plot against the [persevering] righteous (in right standing with God); they gnash at them with their teeth.

13The Lord laughs at [the wicked], for He sees that their own day [of defeat] is coming.

14The wicked draw the sword and bend their bows to cast down the poor and needy, to slay those who walk uprightly (blameless in conduct and in conversation).

15The swords [of the wicked] shall enter their own hearts, and their bows shall be broken.

16Better is the little that the [persevering] righteous have than the abundance [of possessions] of many who are wrong and wicked.

17For the arms of the wicked shall be broken, but the Lord upholds the [perseveringly] righteous.

18The Lord knows the days of the upright and blameless, and their heritage will abide forever.

19They shall not be put to shame in the time of evil; and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.

20But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the Lord shall be as the fat of lambs [that is consumed in smoke] and as the glory of the pastures. They shall vanish; like smoke shall they consume away.

21The wicked borrow and pay not again, but the [perseveringly] righteous deal kindly and give.

22For such as are blessed of God shall [in the end] inherit the earth, but they that are cursed of Him shall be cut off.

23The steps of a [godly] man are directed and established by the Lord when He delights in his way.

24Though he falls, he shall not be utterly cast down, for the Lord grasps his hand in support and upholds him.

25I have been young and now am old, yet have I not seen the [perseveringly] righteous forsaken or their seed begging bread.

26All day long they are merciful and deal graciously; they lend, and their offspring are blessed.

27Depart from evil and do good; and you will dwell forever [securely].

28For the Lord delights in justice and forsakes not His saints; they are preserved forever, but the offspring of the wicked [in time] shall be cut off.

29[Then] the [perseveringly] righteous shall inherit the land and dwell upon it forever.

30The mouth of the [perseveringly] righteous utters wisdom, and his tongue speaks with justice.

31The law of his God is in his heart; none of his steps shall slide.

32The wicked lie in wait for the [perseveringly] righteous and seek to put them to death.

33The Lord will not leave them in their hands, or condemn them when they are judged.

34Wait for and expect the Lord and keep and heed His way, and He will exalt you to inherit the land; when the wicked are cut off, you shall see it.

35I have seen a wicked man in great power and spreading himself like a green tree in its native soil,

36Yet he passed away, and behold, he was not; yes, I sought and inquired for him, but he could not be found.

37Mark the blameless man and behold the upright, for there is a happy end for the man of peace.

38As for transgressors, they shall be destroyed together; in the end the wicked shall be cut off.

39But the salvation of the [perseveringly] righteous is of the Lord; He is their Refuge and secure Stronghold in the time of trouble.

40And the Lord helps them and delivers them; He delivers them from the wicked and saves them, because they trust and take refuge in Him.

So I confide in Jehovah, and do good, dwell in the land, feed on

His faithfulness; and delight thyself in Jehovah, committing my way and

concerns unto Jehovah, and rely upon Him; resting in Jehovah, waiting

patiently for Him: calling on Him to enable me to not fret myself because

of the evil ones who prosper in their way, because of those who bring

evil and mischievous devices to pass; calling on Him to work and will in

me to be careful about nothing; but in everything, by prayer and

supplication with thanksgiving, let my requests be made known to God.
