Default Thought for Today

Good morning everyone!

As I read my morning devotional I encountered this quote from the Supreme Allied Commander in WWI. His enemy was the German army as they sought to take over Europe. Our enemy is the Left as they seek to destroy our nation and its heritage, including our families.

Read it and consider that we should never retreat but should fight for our faith, our family and our nation.


?When one has faith, one does not retire; one stops the enemy where he finds him.?
?Marshal Foch

To me, the bible lines up more with conservative values than with liberal values in all areas of life (finances, taxes, church leadership, immigration policies, poverty, etc).

I don't understand how the liberals interpret the bible...

I understand liberals. Most (not all) are deprived of The Holy Spirit. It reminds me of what Paul says in Romans 1 about God?s wrath against mankind and how I personally think he describes today?s perfect militant liberal. Or a co-host of The View, or both.

Furthermore, since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done. 29-They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, 30- slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; 31-they are senseless, faithless, heartless, ruthless. 32-Although they know God's righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.
-Romans 1:28-32 (niv84)

Excellent commentary!!! I would add that our liberals are like the hypocrites that Jesus opposed.

Some of my church members and friends of my wife are devout Christians and do great community service projects such as high school mentorship programs, but consistently vote democrat. And they aren't depraved like stated in Romans 1:28-32. I just don't understand how they can vote for the democrat beliefs...

just like judas (not calling your friends judas) as an example. he was one of the twelve and yet betrayed Jesus. these verses come to mind:
- don't be unequally yoked ...
- don't have anything to do with unrighteousness ...
- lord, lord, didn't we prophecy in your name .....
- they honor me with their lips but their hearts are far from me ....

Sure, but that’s NOT how it works in God’s Kingdom. Simply doing “great things” here on earth (no matter how terrific they may be) is NOT an indication of one being a true Christian as it pertains to orthodox Christianity. Nobody is “righteous,” in God?s eyes because we are all sinners worthy only of death for our punishment. Again, they vote democrat (and republican politicians aren’t much better either) because they have no fear of God. Period. They hold their own beliefs in higher regard than God. For example, how many of your democrat friends support murdering of the voiceless unborn? …”Good people,” right?

I’m not slamming you, because you bring up a good point. Too many people are just not living under God’s principles and precepts and believe that they are somehow “good.” In the eyes of The Lord, they, you, me, us? are NOT good.

Rather they choose to live secular lives and vote for democrats that pretty much disobey the majority of God’s rules and commandments. See below:

Romans 3:9-12
9-What shall we conclude then? Are we any better? Not at all! We have already made the charge that Jews and Gentiles alike are all under sin.
10-As it is written: "There is no one righteous, not even one; 11-there is no one who understands, no one who seeks God. 12-All have turned away, they have together become worthless; there is no one who does good, not even one."


Romans 3:18
"There is no fear of God before their eyes."
