Dear KKIM Family,
I just love hearing from you!!!
I will be on KKIM today with Pastor Allan Hawkins of New Life City at Noon, following Ask The Pastor with Marvin Capehart.
PRAISE GOD WE ARE HERE TOGETHER!!! It is so AWESOME to have you as a friend in Jesus Christ!
Let me share this with you……………
In 1955, President Eisenhower said this, “Without God, there could be no American form of Government, nor an American way of life. Recognition of the Supreme Being is the first——the most basic——expression of Americanism. Thus the founding fathers of America saw it, and thus with God’s help, it will continue to be.”
Without God, there would be no America.
Here is what British scholar, historian, and author, Paul Johnson has to say. In “A History of the American People” he writes ,”America had been founded primarily for religious purposes, and the Great Awakening had been the original dynamic of the continental movement for independence. The Americans were overwhelmingly church-going, much more so than the English, whose rule they rejected. There is no question that the Declaration of Independence was, to those who signed it, a religious as well as secular act…..”
He also added, “And it is important to remember that America, as a whole, was a religious breakaway from Anglicanism…..Anglican arrogance in the early seventeenth century came home to roost in the 1770’s.” In the context of the Pilgrims and Puritans, Johnson writes, “religion was the biggest single motive in getting people to hazard all on the adventure……..”
As you read the following email from Joe the American…..remember the above words and what President Eisenhower said, “Without God, there could be no American form of Government, nor an American way of life.”
Hello Dewey,
Thank you for your the reading of my last email to you!
What is wrong with this countries politicians?
i.e.
On Wednesday August 5th, 2009, the city council of Lodi, California, led by Mayor Larry D. Hansen, will debate and possibly vote to ban the name of Jesus from public prayers offered by guest pastors invited to pray the invocation.
Under threat of lawsuit by atheists at the Wisconsin based Freedom From Religion Foundation, Mayor Hansen said he is considering changing the Lodi city council prayer policy (which has traditionally allowed the word “Jesus” to be spoken in 39 of the last 55 prayers) to instead censor all prayers into a moment of silence, rather than allow diversity of free speech.
Pastors will no longer be permitted to say “Jesus” in their public prayers, because atheist complainers are easily offended.
and
PENNSYLVANIA HOUSE SPEAKER HAS JUST BANNED JESUS PRAYERS
The right of pastors to pray publicly “in Jesus name” is under new attack in Pennsylvania too.
The Democrat Speaker of the Pennsylvania House Keith R. McCall has just issued (and enforced) a policy which bans the name of Jesus Christ as illegal speech that may not be uttered during voluntary prayers spoken before the Pennsylvania state legislature.
Pastor Gerry Stoltzfoos of Freedom Valley Worship Center in Adams County, PA had been invited to pray the invocation at the State-House on June 30th, but McCall’s office insisted on previewing and censoring a written copy of the prayer beforehand.
“I wrote the prayer and sent it to them and they sent back a very short rejection notice,” Pastor Stoltzfoos told reporters from One News Now. “So I wrote back, ‘I’m curious as to why.’ And they said it had an offensive word. ‘Can you tell me what the word was?’ And they came back and said ‘Jesus.’ Stoltzfoos says he prays in Jesus’ name because Jesus instructed him to do so in the Bible. In John 14, 15, and 16, Jesus said three times, “the Father will give you whatever you ask in my name.” Colossians 3:17 says, “whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus.”
McCall’s office then refused to allow Stoltzfoos to say the prayer before the legislature. The Democrat’s staff told the pastor that Speaker McCall was afraid of lawsuit by atheist groups.
Dewey,
Did I miss the communistic and atheistic law that was passed?, repealing the First Amendment to the US CONSTITUTION?
http://www.law.cornell.edu/constitution/constitution.billofrights.html#amendmenti
We still have the following right don’t we?
Amendment I
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.
and Here is a link to the full Constitution:
http://www.law.cornell.edu/constitution/constitution.table.html#amendments
Why is it so easy for the politicians to play dead andf roll over to a few loose wing nuts?
Don’t they, the politicians or their PA (Public Advisor’s) offices know the constitution or what?
Thank God for the following:
Dr. James Dobson already advertised our 5 August rally to his entire Citizenlink Newsletter email list. And the Alliance Defense Fund has already taken up our cause in Lodi, by offering pro-bono legal aide, and suggesting a new pro-Jesus prayer policy they will defend, if the city council votes properly to continue permitting Jesus prayers rotating among other diverse prayers.
WAKE UP AMERICA!…
Your Freedoms are vanishing right before your eyes!
Get involved, stay informed, call and write your state governments when you don’t agree with something they are doing.
Joe The Amrerican.
Beware those offended by the name of Jesus:
Matthew 13:41 The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;
Matthew 13:42 And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
Luke 21:12 But before all these, they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name’s sake.
Luke 21:17 And ye shall be hated of all men for my name’s sake.
and
Matthew 26:33 Peter answered and said unto him, Though all men shall be offended because of thee, yet will I never be offended.

Remember when we were kids and Dad or Mom would say now I am going to count to five? Well max Lucado wants us to count to eight………
Count to Eight (Woe, Be Gone)by Max Lucado
“We have here only five loaves and two fish.” (Matt. 14:17)
How do you suppose Jesus felt about the basket inventory? Any chance he might have wanted them to include the rest of the possibilities? Involve all the options? Do you think he was hoping someone might count to eight?
“Well, let’s see. We have five loaves, two fish…and Jesus!” Jesus Christ. The same Jesus who told us:
Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. (Luke 11:19 NIV)
If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be given you. (John 15:7 NIV)
What ever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. (Mark 11:24 NIV)
Standing next to the disciples was the solution to their problems…but they didn’t go to him. They stopped their count at seven and worried.
What about you? Are you counting to seven, or to eight?
Here are eight worry stoppers to expand your tally:
Pray, first. “Casting the whole of your care [all your anxieties, all your worries, all your concerns, once and for all] on Him…(I Peter 5:7 AMP)
Easy now. Slow down. “Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for Him (Ps. 37:7).
Act on it. The moment a concern surfaces, deal with it. Don’t dwell on it. Head off worries before they get the best of you. Be a doer, not a stewer.
Compile a worry list. Over a period of days record your anxious thoughts. Then review them. How many of them turned into a reality?
Evaluate your worry categories. Detect recurring areas of preoccupation that may become obsessions. Pray specifically about them.
Focus on today. God meets daily needs daily. He will give you what you need when it is needed.
Unleash a worry army. Share your feelings with a few loved ones. Ask them to pray with and for you.
Let God be enough. “Your heavenly Father already knows all your needs. Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.” (Matt. 6:32-33 NLT).
Eight steps. Pray, first. Easy, now. Act on it. Compile a worry list. Evaluate your worry categories. Focus on today. Unleash a worry army. Let God be enough.
P-E-A-C-E-F-U-L
