How does a Bible believing Christian reconcile Romans 13 with what our Governments in the West are doing today? Perhaps David’s Psalm 101 will help. This is Matthew Henry’s introduction to Psalm 101.
‘INTRODUCTION TO PSALM CHAPTER 101
David was certainly the penman of this psalm, and it has in it the genuine spirit of the man after God’s own heart; it is a solemn vow which he made to God when he took upon him the charge of a family and of the kingdom. Whether it was penned when he entered upon the government, immediately after the death of Saul (as some think), or when he began to reign over all Israel, and brought up the ark to the city of David (as others think), is not material; it is an excellent plan or model for the good government of a court, or the keeping up of virtue and piety, and, by that means, good order, in it: but it is applicable to private families; it is the householder’s psalm. It instructs all that are in any sphere of power, whether larger or narrower, to use their power so as to make it a terror to evil-doers, but a praise to those that do well.’
I just put a blog on about the Atlantic Council and its censoring of your and my freedoms. Here is an excerpt from that article that I believe will drive you to read the article if you have not already done so. Note the names below!!!!
‘The Atlantic Council is a NATO-aligned think tank established in 1961. Its board of directors and advisory board are a Who’s Who of corporate, intelligence and military power, including:
James Clapper – former Director of National Intelligence whose tenure included overseeing the NSA during the time of the Snowden leaks. Asked whether intelligence officials collect data on Americans Clapper responded “No, sir,” and, “Not wittingly.” Clapper also coordinated intelligence community activity through the early stages of Russiagate, and his office authored a key January 2017 report concluding that Russians interfered in 2016 to help Donald Trump. Clapper has been a 360/OS attendee.
Stephen Hadley, United States National Security Advisor from 2005 to 2009 (also a 360/OS attendee)
Henry Kissinger, former US Secretary of State who oversaw the carpet bombing of Vietnam, among other crimes against humanity
Pfizer CEO Anthony Bourla
Stephen A. Schwarzman, Chairman, CEO, and Co-Founder, The Blackstone Group
Meta’s President for Global Affairs, Nick Clegg
Richard Edelman, CEO of the world’s largest PR firm (and 360/OS attendee)
The Rt. Hon. Lord Robertson of Port Ellen, Former Secretary General of NATO
Ambassador Robert B. Zoellick, Former President of the World Bank
Leon Panetta, former US Secretary of Defense & CIA Director. Panetta oversaw the US’s massive growth in drone strikes.
John F. W. Rogers. Goldman Sachs Secretary of the Board
If that doesn’t send a chill down your spine nothing will or if that doesn’t make you just a little bit angry that those in authority are working against your individual freedom of speech probably nothing will!
As a born again blood bought Christian I know my God is in control and I can go to Scripture and find comfort. Here is one Scripture that tells me God does care what occurs in this time in which you and I live and move.
Psalm 2:1 ‘Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? 2 The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying, 3 Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us. 4 He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision. 5 Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure. 6 Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.’
The world is going or is crazy! Here in Australia both major parties are woke with a few in the Coalition that are standing strong. However, if anyone in the states or anywhere else, thinks the man in the WH won the 2020 election they are not worth listening to. Sadly, if something doesn’t change there will NEVER be an honest Presidential election again! Anyway, here is another email received this cold Australian Monday morning from Rescue Michigan. Thankfully, there are some folk in Michigan that are standing strong against this Left Marxist Wokness in their state.
‘This week was a game-changer.
When Matt Walsh announced that his documentary, “What Is A Woman?” would be screened for free on Twitter, the platform initially censored it.
It blocked users from liking, retweeting, and even bookmarking the documentary.
Then something happened.
That something, I suspect, is that Elon Musk watched the movie.
Because he then removed all censorship and told every parent to watch it.
It’s now been seen 140 million times, making it perhaps the most watched documentary of all time.
It’s hard to overstate how significant this is, because it absolutely exposes the political movement to make children become transgender.
And this is something that millions of people had no idea was happening.
Now people will know it’s happening everywhere.
As it happens, many of the radical Democrats in Lansing put their names on legislation to allow minors to get gender-mutilating treatment by running away from home.
Time to hold them accountable.
I recently made a hard-hitting flier for one such state representative, Regina Miller, and with my local Republican Party we’ve already started distributing it locally:
Of course, Regina Miller isn’t the only partisan extremist in Lansing.
In the week ahead, we’ll be rolling out a program where you can order these fliers for your state lawmakers from us, or even have them mailed directly to voters in your precincts.
I do not live in Michigan but I do receive emails from Rescue Michigan and this is an email received this afternoon. We MUST wake up wherever we live for this “trans” push is not from above but from the very pit of Hell!
‘Two weeks ago, we sounded the alarm and launched a petition to Lansing against the Child Sexual Mutilation Act, HB 4087.
Since then, something amazing happened: the bill, which had a committee hearing on May 16, suddenly went NOWHERE.
This is unusual. Normally, when a bill gets a hearing in committee, there’s a vote the next week to send it to the House floor.
Instead, not only did nothing happen, but a Lansing source contacted us to say the bill was stopped.
That’s great news, but now is the time to double down the pressure and make certain that Lansing lawmakers know that the public is discovering the truth of this depraved piece of legislation.
Just yesterday, I was distributing literature at a local fair when a 16-year-old girl approach our booth.
She was de-transitioning.
At age 11, when she felt depressed, her doctor told her she was really a boy. He put her on puberty blockers, and her supportive parents bought her a chest binder.
Now having decided she doesn’t want to be a boy after all, she is detransitioning – and her parents do not support her reverting to the sex that she naturally is.
If you’ve seen the Matt Walsh documentary, “What Is A Woman?” – which just received 110 million views when published on Twitter two nights ago – you know how prevalent this child sexual abuse is – and how terrible are the consequences of permanent sex-alteration.
There is an entire movement persuading children that they were born in the wrong body and the solution is permanent sex-change procedures like puberty blockers, mastectomies, and even genital surgery.
Under House Bill 4087, the Child Sexual Mutilation Act, children could run away from their parents and obtain sexual mutilation, paid for by private organizations, without their parents’ consent.
Tell Lansing lawmakers right now: OPPOSE THE CHILD SEXUAL MUTILATION ACT! According to the bill’s official analysis: “Under the bill, a homeless or runaway youth could consent to, contract for, and receive medical, dental, or behavioral health examinations, care, or treatment without a parent’s or guardian’s permission, authority, or consent.”
Remember: Democrats believe sex changes and puberty blockers are medical care. They call sexual mutilation “gender affirming care” for “trans youth.”
As many people have meticulously documented in agonizing, painful detail, radical transgender activists target children, tell them their insecurities are based on “gender dysphoria,” and encourage them to become transgender themselves. And they’ve been hugely successful.
Tell Lansing lawmakers right now: OPPOSE THE CHILD SEXUAL MUTILATION ACT! This is a basic issue of parental rights.
There is no other reason why legislation is needed to allow runaways to obtain medical treatments without their parents’ consent.
There aren’t even words to describe how sick this is.
But this is the legislation they’re advancing right now.‘
