Frontpage Magazine : Why the Jews?

But he was not transparant in the beginning. He decieved many into believing he was himself Christian. And, there were many who wished to be decieved. Those who would trade freedom for security shall end up with neither. By the time the organized church woke up, it was too late. The swastika was already displayed in the church, and they had lost the moral authority to unmask the monster.

There are "Christians" who do not understand what Paul taught. Christ followers are grafted onto an ancient root, the Isrealites who have a special relationship with God, who chose them himself. He will never alter his covenant with them, because of his eternal nature. We are adopted into the covenant, because our Savior made the sacrifice that makes us acceptable to the Father. Anyone who touches the Jew touches the apple of His eye, and does not seek to please Him.

From the F.W. Star Telegram article, cited above: "Federal officials have reportedly said that states that want more troops may have them, as long as they pick up the tab for the additions. Perry noted in his letter to Obama that the Texas Legislature has already dedicated more than $200 million in recent years to border security. He also repeated his request for 1,000 Guard troops. "This is a federal responsibility, and it shouldn't fall on the backs of Texans to pick up the tab and responsibility for security on the border," Cesinger said. "We don't think it's unreasonable to ask the federal government to pay for something that's their responsibility in the first place." Read more: http://www.star-telegram.com/2010/07/24/2358553_p...

Even Bill White, Dem. candidate for govenor, disapproves: "Immigration policy and border security are responsibilities of the federal government, and they're failing us," said Katy Bacon, a spokeswoman for White. "The National Guard troops are not an adequate or long-term solution -- they're only a Band-Aid."

Tinsley, dmontgomery@star-telegram.com, The anti-American actions of La Raza Unida have not been adequately reported on for decades. We are about to reap very bitter fruit from the political games that have played out in our border states. True HIspanic Americans have been terrorized into being quiet, and both parties have been silenced, afraid to alienate such a large demographic. This will only get uglier.

Arizona rightly is demanding that the Feds do their constitutional job, but Texas has the most violence directly across the border. Governor Perry is demanding a chance to meet Obama while he is here fund raising. The following article appeared in the Fort Worth Star Telegram Sunday. "Obama's administration has announced that it will send 1,200 Guard troops to the four states bordering Mexico beginning next Sunday. Texas, which has more than 60 percent of the 2,000-mile U.S.-Mexico border, will get 20 percent of the allocation, or 250 troops. The Texas allocation equates to one troop for every five miles of the state's border with Mexico... "Under President George W. Bush, 6,000 Guard troops were deployed in all four border states to help the Border Patrol during ramped-up efforts to combat illegal immigration from 2006 to 2008. Known as Operation Jump Start, the deployment included 3,000 Guard personnel assigned to Texas, virtually all from units in the Lone Star State."

I am amazed at what a university education does to most intelligent people. Once obtained, their ear becomes so attuned to the dulcet tones of standard English required of news anchors that any other speech pattern automatically is dismissed as ignorant. Content matters not. Colorful colloquialisms grate on the ear so severely that common truth is dismissed out of hand. The superiority of this "upper crust" will never think of a non-member as deserving of being heard. Only certain other speech patterns come close to being acceptable. Any Northeast accent (think JFK, Boston) can be tolerated. But if it is Southern, or Midwestern, that will immediately remove all possible intelligent content from consideration. Is there a psychological explanation for this visceral response? Is it a rejection of personal roots thought to be unacceptable to peers, requiring denial? What educated fools!

Every decision humans make is either a choice for or against life. If we value human life, we will affirm it every time, no matter how inconvenient. Our culture does not properly understand the value of children. How sad, that family reunions have fewer children than adults. We are a culture that does not even replace ourselves. How can we thrive into the future? Children are the only heritage that matter, yet we are consumed with acquiring wealth, to live extravagant, empty lives. Children are a financial burden, they will limit our economic freedom. What a lie we have come to believe! Ask your grandparents what they value most about their lives!

In Leviticus, the people were also commanded to love your neighbor as yourself. Jesus expanded that to say we should love our enemies. As individuals, not as governments! He also said that the whole law could be summed up into Love God, and love your neighbor as yourself. How humans live in this world together always creates paradox. When we insist that society (government) must be made moral, so that everyone must be "equal," such power means that individuals are crushed. The freedom that God gives to us creates a responsibility to make moral judgments for ourselves as we go through life. These are individual rights and responsibilities, for we are answerable to God for our own actions. We can never say that the government bears these responsibilities, they belong to each one of us.

Alex, The Jewish scriptures report the commands of God to his people in that time, and their response in obedience or rebellion. When they obeyed, they prospered, and when they failed, first God showed mercy, then there was consequence. The story is long, and there was war with stronger tribes who would have annihilated this homeless band. Their triumph when they obeyed spoke of their God's might, as a witness to war-like people. Many chose to believe in this powerful new monotheism, and give up their child sacrifice and other "civilized" practices which God of these people found abominable. But the commands are clearly for those people in that time. The Koran, in contrast, frames the commands to kill others as a continuing requirement, as long as they fail to come to "true belief." Conversion at the point of the spear, or gun, does not allow for man's free will. The Jewish/Christian God is dangerous, because he allows freedom of conscience, from which liberty has come. Remove knowledge of God and his requirements, and liberty becomes license.

Please do not equate our society with the sharia "civilization" they would impose on us! When abuse surfaces, it is universally condemned in our civilized society. When a wife is beaten there, it is assumed she "deserved it," and has no recourse to law, or even her own family. Do you think there are any women's shelters there?

Iver, It is good to wake up! Continue to read on this site, especially the quotes given from the work of David Horowitz. In fact, you should read some of his books. You can learn why the Jewish people usually vote liberal. BTW, referring to an earlier post, Jesus and Paul often used the term, "the Jews," to refer more specifically to the Sadducees of the day. They were the rulers of the temple who cultivated the Romans in order to remain in power. They saw themselves as the true believers who kept their country in existence.

Aren't we all? But I don't want any one of those descriptions of human frailty protected from being called "sin." Until the fault is named, how can remedy be sought? If we call evil good, how can we hope for relationship with the holy? But these are my own sins, and it is not for me to attack an individual. When people are shown the truth of God's love, they will recognize their own sinful ways. "Christians must never fear speaking God’s “word with great boldness.” Amen.

A just society is always radically pro life, including insisting that taking a life requires capital punishment in severe circumstances. Otherwise, all human life is devalued.

Righteous individuals are our best hope for improving our society, and our country. Political movements, made up of individuals doing civic duty, are the best route. Asking for legislation to correct social ills only magnifies the risks of intrusion into our personal lives. God always calls us to personal responsibility. The American Revolution was won by men who understood civic duty, and mutualy pledged "Our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor" to each other.

People pleasers come in two stripes. If relationships are important, it becomes an issue between individuals. If popularity or political power is sought, then it becomes political correctness, and a refusal to offend. I believe that Jesus calls us as individuals to seek peace. Social justice incorrectly applies his call to personal righteousness to government institutions. We must require strong justice, security, and protection of individuals from our government, while examining our personal conscience for grace and mercy given to our fellow man. Jesus' strongest words were spoken against the religious leaders who participated with the Roman government, who oppressed the individual for their own power. Societies and governments will not stand before God for judgment, but as individuals, we will have to answer for our personal response to human need. That is the fallacy of "the collective." Somehow, we seek to relieve our conscience by giving over our responsibility as our brother's keeper.

Progressive is a term which requires an antecedent. To "progress" implies that one is moving from point A to point B. Are we "progressing" away from our constitutional roots? To what are we progressing? Why are people so eager to leave that which has made us the most successful, secure, nation in history? Our bounty supplies disaster relief across the world. When we are only equal to all other nations, who will rise to help? It is our military which has provided security for other nations to prosper. If their economies had to provide for their own defense, how could Europe have recovered from the world wars? So, they have had the free ride to provide social programs, which now they realize cannot be sustained.

Now that the Obama administration has seized the power of the census, the real election story will be the shift of voting power by redistricting. And even more overwhelming will be the immigrant voters.____The Republican Party will be toast if they continue to lose the Hispanic voter. The irony is that their strong family values would make a natural fit with a conservative party. The fear and loathing that is fostered by the progressives to alienate Hispanics from Republicans disempowers both. We make criminals of natural allies, which empowers the truly criminal drug lords. These people need protection from the outlaws. We forget history. The Mexican border has a long and violent past, including Pancho Villa.
