bulletAs the grandson of an immigrant it is my view a nation divided by language and culture can not stand united in a time of need. We must continue to have one language (English) and one culture (American). However we must respect each individuals right to speak there native language and practice there own cultural heritage among there own family and friends. My Grandfather Larson immigrated to this country legally, leaned English, became a citizen and went to China legally as a missionary for over 20 years. When he returned to the United States raised a family and was a productive member of our society. Grand-dad was not a Swedish-American he was an American. America for Americans, natural born and naturalized.

 

bulletWhen it comes to the law all must respect the laws of the land. Persons who are here in the United States of America by means other than legal are disrespecting (breaking the law, ergo illegal) the laws of the land and are not entitled to remain among us.
bulletJesus said in John 10:1 Truly, truly, I say to you, He who does not enter into the sheepfold by the door, but going up by another way, that one is a thief and a robber. I realize that this scripture reference is taken out of context; however the principle is the same. Whoever does not enter the United States LEGALLY is the same as a thief and a robber (criminal).

bulletMarriage was instituted by God for one man and one woman. Celebrate Hetero-Pride
bulletGen 2:21 And Jehovah God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept. And He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh underneath. Gen 2:22 And Jehovah God made the rib (which He had taken from the man) into a woman. And He brought her to the man. Gen 2:23 And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh. She shall be called Woman because she was taken out of man. Gen 2:24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave to his wife and they shall be one flesh. Gen 2:25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife; and they were not ashamed. John 2:1 And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee. And the mother of Jesus was there. John 2:2 And Jesus and His disciples were both invited to the marriage. Heb 13:4 Marriage is honorable in all, and the bed undefiled, but fornicators and adulterers God will judge. Rom 1:20 For the unseen things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being realized by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, for them to be without excuse. Rom 1:21 Because, knowing God, they did not glorify Him as God, neither were thankful. But they became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Rom 1:22 Professing to be wise, they became fools Rom 1:23 and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man, and birds, and four-footed animals, and creeping things. Rom 1:24 Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves. Rom 1:25 For they changed the truth of God into a lie, and they worshiped and served the created thing more than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. Rom 1:26 For this cause, God gave them up to dishonorable affections. For even their women changed the natural use into that which is against nature. Rom 1:27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust toward one another; males with males working out shamefulness, and receiving in themselves the recompense which was fitting for their error. Rom 1:28 And even as they did not think fit to have God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do the things not right, Rom 1:29 being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; being full of envy, murder, quarrels, deceit, evil habits, becoming whisperers, Rom 1:30 backbiters, haters of God, insolent, proud, braggarts, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, Rom 1:31 undiscerning, perfidious, without natural affection, unforgiving, unmerciful; Rom 1:32 who, knowing the righteous order of God, that those practicing such things are worthy of death, not only do them, but have pleasure in those practicing them.
bulletHomosexuals are not to be hated or riled against they don't need our bigotry . God loves all mankind; if not, God would not have sent Jesus to die for our sins. They are just like any of the rest of us. Sinners who can be saved by Gods Grace through Jesus Christ. Homosexuals have been a small percentage of the population through history, in every period of time, in every race, culture, country and religion. Regardless of the sin, mankind has always attempted to make an excuse for our sinful behavior. In our time because of technology, media, politics and other factors they may seem to be a majority, they are not. As we encounter them in our daily lives love them with Gods love, don't argue, denigrate or judge. Pray for them that God will open their eyes and that they may receive Christ as we have.
bulletQuestion? Can a person be a Born Again Christian and a Homosexual? I believe they can; yet with great internal conflict. Gods word is clear about His stand on the subject. Christians do not need to be judgmental because God has already judged and condemned the sexual acts of homosexuality. Once accepting Christ into there heart and life they must practice celibacy. A truly repentant believer in Christ is a new creation. The old things have passed away and all things are new. Over time by reading and studying the Bible and with prayer and Christian counseling there mind is renewed by God.
bulletRom 6:6 knowing this, that our old man is crucified with Him in order that the body of sin might be destroyed, that from now on we should not serve sin. Gal 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ, and I live; yet no longer I, but Christ lives in me. And that life I now live in the flesh, I live by faith toward the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself on my behalf. 2Co 5:17 So that if any one is in Christ, that one is a new creature; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. Rom 12:1-2 I beseech you therefore, brothers and sisters, by the mercies of God to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, pleasing to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, in order to prove by you what is that good and pleasing and perfect will of God.
bulletI grew up knowing and loving two very godly women who lived and worked together very effectively in the ministry. These two people had never married or to my knowledge found companionship in the opposite sex. They were in no way homosexuals. However if they had grow up 40 or 50 years later and without Christ they might have been. These two women were celibate all there lives. We all have our crosses to bare in life to one it is one thing to another it is something else.

bulletI support Israel. It is not so much that I support Israel as Honor and respect the Jewish people. In case any one forgets Jesus was Jewish. The apostle Paul (Saul) was Jewish as were the disciples. God revealed him self through the descendents of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. From Jacob came the twelve tribes of Israel.
bulletNum 6:27 And they shall put My name upon the sons of Israel. And I, I will bless them. Num 24:1 And Balaam saw that it pleased Jehovah to bless Israel,... Deut 26:15 Look down from Your holy dwelling, from Heaven, and bless Your people Israel... Psa 115:12 Jehovah has been mindful of us; He will bless us; He will bless the house of Israel; He will bless the house of Aaron. Gen 12:3 And I will bless those that bless you and curse the one who curses you. And in you shall all families of the earth be blessed. Gen 26:3 Reside in this land, and I will be with you and bless you. For to you and to your seed I will give all these lands; and I will establish the oath which I swore to Abraham your father. Num 6:27 And they shall put My name upon the sons of Israel. And I, I will bless them.
bulletIf God blessed Israel so will I. Just a thought, could this be why the Arab world has had so much trouble through history? In general they hate Israel and seek it's destruction. In spite of it's troubles Egypt has been relatively stable since signing the Camp David accords.
