Should Muslims be Able to Hold Public Office in the United States?

Gary DeMar | September 22, 2015  Can a Muslim swear an oath to uphold the Constitution when the Constitution is contrary to his beliefs? The Constitution states that the document’s drafting took place “in the year of our Lord” 1787, a clear reference to Jesus Christ. For a Muslim, Jesus

Rissa Arias

The National Catholic Reporter reported Friday that Vatican sources said the pope intends to visit several cities in America, especially Philadelphia, in late September 2015, during the Catholic Church’s World Meeting of Families. The international gathering takes place every three years. This is the pope’s first visit to America and for millions of Catholics, his six-day visit will be a time of great celebration, but for those who are involved in security, this event is of great concern.

Christians Are Awakening

The increase of concerning events is confronting Christians and jolting their conscience into the realization that leaves no doubt about the war against Christianity. All across the nation, there are massive, medium and small calls to prayer to intercede before the Heavenly Father asking for forgiveness for our national sins and to restore his ways throughout the land.

Modern-Day Persecution: Real Threat or Paper Tigers?

CL Staff | September 9, 2015  There are some who take offense when comparisons are made between what is happening to Christians in America and the Jewish Holocaust in Nazi-controlled territories. Then there are those in the media and entertainment world who openly mock and ridicule the notion that Christians

A Christian in Prison for Her Faith in the USA

How many times have you heard, or even said, that jailing Christians for standing on their faith couldn’t happen here in the United States of America? Now that Kim Davis, Kentucky’s Rowan county clerk, is in jail without parole since last Thursday, we can no longer say, “it cannot happen in America.” September 3, 2015, is the day that we Christians officially lost our liberties in this country. One unelected judge, following in the footsteps of the five U.S. Supreme Court Justices, arbitrarily trashed the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, and most importantly THE BIBLE upon which this Republic was founded.

America’s Eerie Parallels to Downfall of Rome

Bill Federer | September 3, 2015 The fall of Rome was a culmination of several external and internal factors. Great Wall of China By 220 A.D., the Later Eastern Han Dynasty had extended sections of the Great Wall of China along its Mongolian border. This resulted in the Northern Huns

America’s Real Problem is Godlessness

There is no doubt that we are witnessing the collapse of an empire called the United States of America because of its permissiveness in allowing evil to overrun it. It is very obvious to the average American and to the world that we are in desperate trouble. It is because of our moral disgrace. “…Sin is a reproach to any people.” (Proverbs 14:34) “When wickedness comes, so does contempt, and with shame comes reproach.” (Proverbs 18:3) America will not be the exception.

Protection for ‘Children’ Includes Unborn

Bob Unruh | April 18, 2014 A remarkable opinion in a ruling by the Supreme Court of Alabama that is bound to be quoted in abortion disputes declares the unborn are protected by rights granted by God to every human being. “Our Creator, not government, gives to all people ‘unalienable’

Exploring the Truth About Birthright Citizenship

There’s no denying that presidential candidate Donald Trump is capturing the attention of Americans with the bold solutions that he is presenting to most of the problems that are afflicting the nation. His statement about deporting illegal immigrants, in spite of having children born in the U.S., has sparked positive and negative reactions; of course, the 14th Amendment is the focal point in both views. It is a heated topic that is gaining traction. By now, some of the other presidential candidates are siding with Trump.

The Root Problem of Our Economy and Social Disease

The American experiment developed by the Founding Fathers of a limited federal government, with a constitutional mandate, and a clear separation of powers with co-equal branches of government, is not going as well as expected. The question must be asked. Do we have the willingness and fortitude to turn things around and move towards an in-depth transformation before a total collapse? We certainly do not mean the fundamental transformation proclaimed by Obama and his presidential and federal oligarchic predecessors.

Their Shed Blood Cries Out for Justice

The blood of close to 60 million slaughtered babies in the mother’s womb cries out for justice. If justice doesn’t come by society stopping this blood-curdling practice of barbarism, history is very clear that this nation will pay dearly for their approval of it.

Cultural Darkness Demands the Burst of Light

What do you consider is America’s greatest problem? Some will find it hard to single out the main difficulty facing our nation. It is undeniable that the list of problems that plague this country is a long one. For most people in the world there is the logical answer of opposites. The opposite of bitter is sweet, of cold it’s hot, of evil it’s good, of true it’s false, of war it’s peace, of sickness it’s good health, of darkness it’s light and so forth. It sounds simple and logical, yet the nations find themselves following the same ancestral steps of chaos. Why is that, and why is it so difficult to bring order?

The Tongue-Twisting GOP

When asked if homosexuals are born that way, it seems as though the GOP Presidential candidates are afraid to give a straight answer, don’t know the answer, are uncomfortable with the question, are securing votes or simply playing the guessing game of catch me if you can.
