Dear KKIM Family,
Here is my Resurrection Sunday sermon…………….
Let us call this little boy Tommy…………yesterday during New Mexico News and Views, John Walsh spokesman for Albuquerque Police was talking about the huge Memphis Mob bust here in the Duke City. Over 40 thugs from a Memphis Mob who had set up shop here in the Duke City have been arrested on murder charges, drug trafficking, robbery, and many other crimes.
At the end of this discussion John talked about a case that had taken him away from his scheduled interview on KKIM….the case of little Tommy………
Little Tommy was left with his Aunt to be taken care of. Little Tommy’s Aunts boyfriend strangled him for 15 minutes with a choker chain and almost pulled off his arm! John said Doctor’s were trying to save the arm, but they may have to amputate it. I could not finish the program…..that got to me..I cried. Have we forgotten how to cry?
Let us face the hard facts about life here in America………A country that is less Christian at anytime in it’s history.
It is a country that it’s children are not safe. Our children are given up for abortion, some are not safe in the hands of family members, like little Tommy, some are not safe from sexual predators in Church, some are not safe from sexual maniacs in School’s, My point here is how long can a society last when it’s own children are not safe? Not even safe in special places like the Mother’s womb, Church’s, and School’s.
Jesus gave His life for us……….What are we doing for His children?
It is 17 years ago this Easter Weekend, when my father, Wally Moede had just retired and died of a heart attack on Easter morning. Back home they called him God’s shepherd of little Children, he looked after them. This has always been in my heart, to look after God’s children. I got it from my Dad and Mom, who both worked with Children in their jobs with the School district.
A society that treats it’s children like America, cannot stand much longer.
I am just not complaining here, I have a solution……….remove these snakes from society by doing what Sheriff Joe does in Arizona, put up a fence and tents and let them fend for themselves. We have a lot of land here in New Mexico and this would be just right. Some may never come out of the tent farm, but if they can prove they can be good let them out, but not until then. Our present system of arresting these snakes and then letting them out again does not work. I have proposed this to Legislative friends of KKIM.
It is just like the official in the Catholic Church said back in 1952 when it was first revealed that the Church had sexual predator’s in it here in New Mexico, the official said the snakes should be sent to a far off Island! That was way back in 1952, but what did the Church do then? It avoided this great sin like we as a Country do today!
Jesus died on the cross for you and me and we cannot even protect His children………
The Cross
by Max Lucado
The cross. Can you turn any direction without seeing one? Perched atop a chapel. Carved into a graveyard headstone. Engraved in a ring or suspended on a chain. The cross is the universal symbol of Christianity. An odd choice, don’t you think? Strange that a tool of torture would come to embody a movement of hope. The symbols of other faiths are more upbeat: the six-pointed star of David, the crescent moon of Islam, a lotus blossom for Buddhism. Yet a cross for Christianity? An instrument of execution?
Would you wear a tiny electric chair around your neck? Suspend a gold-plated hangman’s noose on the wall? Would you print a picture of a firing squad on a business card? Yet we do so with the cross. Many even make the sign of the cross as they pray. Would we make the sign of, say, a guillotine? Instead of the triangular touch on the forehead and shoulders, how about a karate chop on the palm? Doesn’t quite have the same feel, does it?
Why is the cross the symbol of our faith? To find the answer look no farther than the cross itself. Its design couldn’t be simpler. One beam horizontal—the other vertical. One reaches out—like God’s love. The other reaches up—as does God’s holiness. One represents the width of his love; the other reflects the height of his holiness. The cross is the intersection. The cross is where God forgave his children without lowering his standards.
How could he do this? In a sentence: God put our sin on his Son and punished it there.
Let us pray………..
Dear Lord,
We come to Praise You and give thanks.We recommit ourselves to protect Your Children, like little Tommy. In the name of Jesus, AMEN!
