ELCA RELEASES SUPPLEMENTAL RESOURCES

HOMOSEXUAL “MARRIAGE” SERVICES

The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA), rightly claimed by many to be neither Evangelical or Lutheran, has released a resource guide to aid clergy with the performance of liturgy in the “marriage” of sodomites.
You can see the entire document here.
A press release at ELCA’s website states:
The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) has developed supplemental resources for use within the Evangelical Lutheran Worship marriage service. The liturgical resources were developed based on action by the ELCA Church Council to implement recommendations from the “Ministry to and with Same-gender Couples and Their Families” working group.
The apostate denomination, that claims the slogan, “God’s Work, Our Hands,” and is now in communion with the Vatican, fully affirms homosexuality, and accepts them into their congregation as “needed members with gifts.” Rev. Kevin Strickland, ELCA executive for worship says “These supplemental resources have been created to offer more inclusivity in language, pastoral care, and openness for all persons who seek to be married within this church.” The ELCA adopted a resolution in 2009 resolving to find ways for “committed” sodomites to serve as leaders in the church (page 22).
Preceding many of the great judgments of God throughout biblical history, you will find sexual immorality among the people. God destroyed entire cities (Genesis 18:16-19:29) because his creation practiced these things that are detestable to him. Scripture is undeniably clear the homosexuality is an abomination to God, and in no way does he approve of it (Leviticus 18:22, Leviticus 20:13, etc.). Further, Scripture is exceedingly clear that those who practice sodomy will not see the kingdom of God.
Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality, nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. – 1 Corinthians 6:9-10
The council states on page 2 that “The new challenges to long-held understandings regarding homosexuality led many to consider again the meaning and application of Scripture as well as the Lutheran theological heritage.” In other words, the intention is to twist and reinterpret Scriptures to sick and perverted desires of the flesh.
For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error.
And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done.
It is very clear that the ELCA does not know God or even know who he is. There is no acknowledgment of Christ, and no desire to walk in the light of his truth. These wicked people who rationalize their sin are ignorant and unstable, and do this to their own destruction (2 Peter 3:16).
Lord have mercy on our souls.

CANADA: HOMOFASCISTS SUE CHRISTIAN ACTIVIST FOR $104 MILLION

HOMOFASCISTS SUE CHRISTIAN ACTIVIST FOR $104 MILLION 
BY GINA MILLER
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:
In early July, Christian freedom activist Bill Whatcott and a small group of friends used stealth to infiltrate the Toronto sodomite “pride” parade for the purpose of distributing thousands of flyers with a brief Gospel message and the graphic truth about the dangers of homosexual behavior. The flyers also called out Justin Trudeau and other Canadian politicians who aggressively support the militant homosexualist movement.

Whatcott signed up to march in the parade under an alias (since he is well-known to homosexual activists in Canada and would not otherwise be allowed in by those “tolerance” pushers). He named his marching group the “Gay Zombies Cannabis Consumers Association,” and they wore full-body costumes that hid their identities. Their mission was a huge success, as they were able to distribute their flyers to people all along the parade route.

This sent the militant homosexual/”transgender” world into irate fits, and now some militant homofascists, who claim they have suffered “provable” psychological harm because of the flyers, have hit Bill with a $104 million-dollar class action lawsuit. As reported by the DailyXtra:

“Prominent gay lawyer Douglas Elliott has filed a $104-million class action lawsuit against anti-gay activist Bill Whatcott for crashing the 2016 Toronto Pride parade.

“Elliott is also seeking an injunction from the court to prevent Whatcott and his associates from crashing anymore Pride parades in Canada.

… The lawsuit seeks in part to determine the identities of those who marched with Whatcott and those who financially supported the political stunt through subpoenaed documents.

“‘Those who paid for his airfare or donated Aeroplan miles to get him to Toronto, those who put him up in Toronto, the people who paid to print the pamphlets: anyone who helped him in any way could be on the hook for $100 million dollars.’ says Elliott, whose firm Cambridge LLP is handling the lawsuit.”

When homosexualists use stealth and lies to infiltrate every institution, it’s “justified,” but when Christians surreptitiously slip them the message of salvation through Jesus and the ugly truth about the mental, physical and spiritual dangers of homosexual behavior, it’s “hate speech.” When homofascists bully their way into St. Patrick’s Day parades and use lawfare to force people to participate against their conscience in the evil sham of same-sex “marriage,” it’s “legitimate,” but when Christians gain access to their public displays of obscene vulgarity for the sole purpose of spreading messages of life-saving truth, it’s an unspeakable outrage.

Oh, but we’re used to this lunatic double standard by now.

This wicked, frivolous lawsuit is just one of many examples of how the militant homofascist movement is a tool used by the enemies of God, truth and freedom to intimidate into silence those who love truth and hold right, moral views on marriage, family and human sexuality. The primary targets of this vile movement are Christians and Christianity, because that is the essence of the true battle being waged on earth. It is a spiritual battle, playing out in the physical realm, between the forces of Satan and God.

While this lawsuit is in Canada, the very same kinds of outrageous “lawfare” are happening in the United States. It’s the same movement with the same goals: the destruction of freedom of speech, conscience and religion, the destruction of moral absolutes, and the destruction of the meaning of marriage, family and even the immutable meaning of male and female.

The people in this homofascist movement have a deep hatred for God and His Word. They are foolishly proud in their sin, and they despise those of us who tell the truth about it, those of us who expose the reality of their perverse, dead-end behaviors and their despotic schemes. They will not stop until they succeed in criminalizing the truth we tell. Bill Whatcott tells this truth boldly, and he is effective for Christ, so he is fiercely hated by these people, as this insane, baseless lawsuit demonstrates.

However, just because the lawsuit is baseless in no way means it will naturally be dismissed. Dark, spiritual forces are at work here, and they have inspired with blindness far too many people in positions of authority, and they aggressively work to silence those who tell the wretched truth about homosexuality, “transgenderism” and related behaviors. Many of these people would gladly throw Christians in prison (or worse) for opposing them.

Bill desperately needs our help in defending against this hell-born lawsuit. He cannot afford a legal defense on his own, but he does now have a lawyer. There is a funding page set up for Bill’s legal expenses. Please help, if you can. You can donate at this link. Be aware that it is a Canadian transaction, so you may have to notify your bank that it’s a legitimate donation you’re making, in case it’s flagged as suspicious. You can also send donations directly to Bill’s lawyer here:

As the days grow ever darker in this world, we must stand firmly on the truth of God’s Word, pray for each other and offer material support when and where we can. Please pray, and continue praying, for Bill Whatcott as he faces powerful evil forces that are hell-bent on the destruction of his freedom.

OBAMA HAD TO USE AIR FORCE ONE’S BELLY EXIT METAL STAIRCASE ON ARRIVAL IN CHINA~CHINESE TELLS WHITE HOUSE STAFFER: “OUR COUNTRY, OUR AIRPORT”

Barack Obama ‘deliberately snubbed’ by Chinese in chaotic arrival at G20
The US president was denied the usual red carpet welcome and forced to ‘go out of the ass’ of Air Force One, observers say
China’s leaders have been accused of delivering a calculated diplomatic snub to Barack Obama after the US president was not provided with a red carpet staircase to leave his plane during his chaotic arrival in Hangzhou before the start of the G20.
Chinese authorities have rolled out the red carpet for leaders of India, Russia, South korea, Brazil and the U.K., who touched down on Sunday morning.
But the leader of the world’s largest economy, who is on his final tour of Asia, was forced to disembark from Air Force One through a little-used exit in the plane’s belly after no rolling staircase was provided when he landed in the eastern Chinese city on Saturday afternoon.

When Obama did find his way on to a red carpet on the tarmac below there were heated altercations between US and Chinese officials, with one Chinese official caught on video shouting: “This is our country! This is our airport!”
“The reception that President Obama and his staff got when they arrived here Saturday afternoon was bruising, even by Chinese standards,”the New York Times reported.
Jorge Guajardo, Mexico’s former ambassador to China, said he was convinced Obama’s treatment was part of a calculated snub.
“These things do not happen by mistake. Not with the Chinese,” Guajardo, who hosted presidents Enrique Peña Nieto and Felipe Calderón during his time in Beijing, told the Guardian.

A Chinese official said there was no intended snub.
“It would do China no good in treating Obama rudely,” the official, who declined to be named, was quoted as saying.
“China provides a rolling staircase for every arriving state leader, but the US side complained that the driver doesn’t speak English and can’t understand security instructions from the United States; so China proposed that we could assign a translator to sit beside the driver, but the US side turned down the proposal and insisted that they didn’t need the staircase provided by the airport,” the official added.
The US president offered a diplomatic reply when asked to comment on the airport “kerfuffle” on Sunday during a joint press conference with Theresa May.
“I wouldn’t over-crank the significance of it because, as I said, this is not the first time that these things happen and it doesn’t just happen here. It happens in a lot of places including, by the way, sometimes our allies,” Obama said, adding that “none of this detracts from the broader scope of the relationship”.
Obama suggested his Chinese hosts might have found the size of the US delegation “a little overwhelming”.
“We’ve got a lot of planes, a lot of helicopters, a lot of cars and a lot of guys. If you are a host country, sometimes it may feel a little bit much.”
The Americans always operate big, and the delegation travelling with the president providing support is no exception. At least two giant C-17 Globemaster transports accompany the President. One carries the “Beast”, the armoured car like presidential limousine. As well as Secret Service support vehicles and equipment.  Another one carries “Marine One”, the presidential helicopter, other support helicopters may also be part of the contingent.
With this huge presence landing at your airport, and we know how the Americans sometimes can be assertive and over-bearing, the Chinese figured proper protocol was out the door. Thankfully, Obama said enough of this noise, use the retractable metal stairs.

Postscript: Donald Trump said it was a terrible snub by the Chinese. He said if that happened to me, I would have closed the doors and flew the hell out of there. Trump would flee the highest level economic summit in the world, because he didn’t get stairs with a red carpet!

Phyllis Schlafly, the leading pioneer of America’s conservative movement, has died at the age of 92.



“She is and was an icon of human liberty,” said Alex Jones. “Without trailblazers like her we would have no chance against the forces of tyranny.”



Schlafly, a formidable pro-family grassroots organizer who was politically active for 70 years, founded the conservative Eagle Forum in 1972 and served as president since then, overseeing the organization’s rise to 80,000 members today.



“Her focus from her earliest days until her final ones was protecting the family, which she understood as the building block of life,” the Eagle Forum said in a statement. “She recognized America as the greatest political embodiment of those values.”



“From military superiority and defense to immigration and trade; from unborn life to the nuclear family and parenthood, Phyllis Schlafly was a courageous and articulate voice for common sense and traditional values.”



Schlafly’s entrance into politics was almost accidental; she majored in political science at Washington University because it the the only major that offered classes that fit into her graveyard shift schedule as a ordnance plant worker during World War II.



After the graduated, at the age of 22, Schlafly led the 1946 campaign of Republican congressional candidate Claude Bakewell to a major upset victory.



She was also a key player in the defeat of the Equal Rights Amendment pushed by feminists in the 1970s, arguing that the ERA was designed to benefit single, young career women at the expense of middle-aged housewives with few job prospects.



The amendment was ratified by 35 states, three short of the necessary 38.



“The ERA was defeated when Scholarly turned it into a war among women over gender roles,” said legal scholar Joan C. Williams.



She was also a frequent guest on the Alex Jones Show.

OBAMA PROPOSES RULE THAT COULD BAN STATES FROM DEFUNDING 



PLANNED PARENTHOOD



BY HEATHER CLARK



SEE: http://christiannews.net/2016/09/07/obama-administration-proposes-rule-that-could-ban-states-from-defunding-planned-parenthood/; republished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:







WASHINGTON — Concerns are being expressed over a new rule proposed by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) that suggests that it plans to ban states from defunding abortion providers like Planned Parenthood.



The notice of proposed rulemaking, “Compliance with Title X Requirements by Project Recipients in Selecting Subrecipients,” outlines that it plans to amend the Code of Federal Regulations to read, “No recipient making subawards for the provision of services as part of its Title X project may prohibit an entity from participating for reasons unrelated to its ability to provide services effectively.”



Title X was enacted in 1970 under the Public Health Service Act and authorizes the Office of Population Affairs to oversee the disbursement of federal funds for the purpose of assisting organizations that offer “family planning” services. States distribute the capital to reproductive and women’s health organizations as they see fit.







In recent years, a number of states have sought to defund the abortion giant Planned Parenthood after granting the organization funds for years, stating that they do not wish to assist groups that provide abortion services, even if the funds will not be directly used for abortion.



But the Obama administration contends that stripping abortion facilities of funding adversely affects the number of unplanned births in the nation.



“Certain states have policies in place which limit access to high quality family planning services by restricting specific types of providers from participating in the Title X program,” HHS wrote in its proposed rule notice. “These policies, and varying court decisions on their legality, has led to uncertainty among grantees, inconsistency in program administration, and diminished access to services for Title X target populations,” it wrote.



“Reducing access to Title X services has many adverse effects. Title X services have a dramatic effect on the number of unintended pregnancies and births in the United States,” HHS continued. “For example, services provided by Title X-funded sites helped prevent an estimated 1 million unintended pregnancies in 2010 which would have resulted in an estimated 501,000 unplanned births.”



The department also asserted that defunding family planning facilities because they perform abortions “may shift funding from relatively high quality family planning service providers to providers of lower quality.”



But some have expressed concern about the proposed rule and its effect of forcing states to fund Planned Parenthood, including Tennessee Rep. Diane Black, a member of the Select Investigative Panel on Infant Lives.



“This latest stunt from President Obama’s Department of Health and Human Services should surprise absolutely no one,” she said in a statement on Tuesday. “We’ve known all along that the Obama Administration will go to untold lengths to protect its friends in the big abortion industry.”



Black outlined she plans to write a letter explaining why a number of members of Congress oppose the move.



“We must use the full force of Congress and the grassroots strength of the national pro-life movement to defeat this absurd rule and prevent the Obama Administration from acting unilaterally to carry out political favors and prop up a scandal-ridden abortion provider,” she stated.



The rule is now open for public comment.
