The Hate Crime Bill H.R. 1913 that was passed in 2009 has come alive. You can read my previous blog below to read my thoughts on this bill. However, it was passed and I wanted it to fail. Here is a current story about what the hate crime bill can do.

 City officials under attack for pro-Christian comments.

 These two officials are under attack for simply standing on their worldview in their comments. It amazes me that these two are under attack for some simple comments defending a Christian worldview. The mayor is under attack from the Council on American-Islamic Relations for his comments about being a Christian community. Councilwoman Sherry Marquez has been criticized for posting biblical references on her Facebook site encouraging Christians to defend themselves.

 Marquez is free to post any reference she wants on Facebook. As a matter of fact, I post a biblical references on Facebook every single day. Maybe I should tell how I do not believe in the Homosexual movement. Maybe I should state the only way to Heaven is through Jesus Christ. Muslims, you will spend an eternity in hell.

 Make no mistake where I stand people. I stand with Jesus Christ and the Holy Scriptures. I will tell you to repent and put your belief in Jesus Christ who died for your sins.

 So, maybe I should get into politics. I will not stop preaching and teaching the Holy Bible. The Scriptures define my worldview and that will never change. The Tea Party movement sounds very good right now. We do need change in Washington. This hate crime bill is bad not just for Believers, but for every American. There is a right to free speech that comes from our constitution. These city officials have a constitutional right to say what they want to say. The only ones getting attacked are Christians and that is bad news for every American.

There I was, watching Fox News like any good rightwing extremist would do. That’s what I am now. An Army veteran turned pastor who lives by the Word of God and I’m considered by my government as a rightwing extremist. So, I have been known as all kinds of things over the years and I’ll be a rightwing extremist. There I am, on the right! So far right it’s extreme. Anyhow, that is other news. I’m going to focus on one story that is concern for all Americans.

On Saturday, April 25th, 2009 I was watching Huckabee on Fox News. On Mr. Huckabee’s show he had a constitutional lawyer named Michael Farris. They were talking about the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child. Here is a link where you can get the press release from Huckabee.

Here is a link where you can read the entire document on the Convention on the Rights of the Child.

Here is another link where you can read the United States Constitution in it’s entirety.

Now this is another right being stripped from all Americans. The current administration is turning our country into a socialist society. We knew this was coming, but what bothers me is how my children will have more authority over me when it concerns them by turning to the United Nations and leaving our Constitution. My 22 years in the United States Army now has no meaning to me. I raised my hand to protect and defend the United States according to our Constitution. Soon, young men and women will raise their hands to protect and defend the United Nations according to the International Community. We will no longer  be called a United States citizen. We will be called United Nations citizens.

This is another way our government is taking control of all of us. We must act and act now. Please contact your Senators and demand that they DO NOT ratify this treaty. It is bad for all Americans even though our current leaders think it is best. Let them hear your voice.

Here is a link where you can find your Senators and their contact information.

I probably don’t have to remind you how our judicial system has slowly been ruling from the bench based upon the International Community and not the U.S. Constitution. Our country is slowly becoming dependent on Foreign entities that have a lot more to do with oil.

Now is the time to let your voice be heard about the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child. If this treaty is ratified look for more rights of yours to be handed over to the International Community.

So a vote is looming in Congress. Big Deal

The so called Hate Crimes Bill is a potential crisis for many believers. However, I am not one of them. As a pastor I look forward to challenging H.R. 1913. I will not bow to this so called law. We have two documents this country was founded on that give me the right to preach whatever the Holy Spirit tells me to preach. One and it is really the only document we need in this world are the Holy Scriptures. For an easy example let’s look at Leviticus 18:22 which says, “Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.” Or if you prefer in more modern English the same verse, “Do not lie with a man as one lies with a woman; that is detestable. So, according to the Holy Bible and God’s Word homosexual activity is an abomination and detestable to God. Now according to this new bill I may offend someone with those verses that I preach from the Bible. First of all, it’s not me offending but God and His Word. Second, there isn’t any government in this world going to tell me what I can and can’t preach. Only the Holy Spirit will tell me what to preach or what not to preach. If you are offended; seek Jesus and ask for forgiveness. That’s just one example. I can talk about my belief about abortion being murder and I’m sure that will offend someone too. So, that brings me to document number two.

The second document we have is the Constitution of the United States. And since I am a United States born and bred, but thank God I’m Baptist dead citizen; I have assurances that I can say whatever I want to say and I’m protected by the Constitution.

Here’s Number 1: The Constitution starts out with “We the People..” That is me and my family.

Number 2: 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.

Now our Constitution was written at a time so someone with a reading level in seventh grade could understand it. So it’s an easy read. I’m free to practice whatever religion I want. In the process of practicing that religion I can say whatever I want. In Church, which is the Body of Christ, I’m free to preach the Word of God and I hope it offends someone. That is exactly what it is designed to do. So, I don’t fear H.R. 1913 or any potential prosecution against me. I am assured it will happen anyway by the Word of God. I will go forth and preach the Word of God no matter what laws spring up in my country against me. Throw me in jail and I’ll preach there too. We do have enemies fighting against our country and our government is wasting time with stimulus plans and Bills that have absolutely no meaning.
