PostSubject: The Christians have Weapons of Mass Destruction   The Christians have Weapons of Mass Destruction I_icon_minitimeSun Nov 23, 2008 2:44 pm

So I just checked some of my more backed up emails and I found this which was forwarded to me from my mothers very stupid cousin... which I think actually just makes her my cousin.

Quote :

Due to IRS rules, this letter is from me personally and is not from any of the ministries I am associated with. (Also because of IRS rules, I cannot
send it to my ministry database and therefore need your help in getting it out.) Do with it as you see fit, but my desire is that you forward it to as
many praying friends as possible.


Dear Praying Friend,

In 2000, I wrote the 2nd most important letter of my life a call to prayer for the elections of that year. I’m now writing what may be my most important letter. I knew the importance of those elections in 2000 was beyond any in my life up to that point and that the spiritual warfare surrounding them would be unlike anything any of us had ever seen. That letter was read by millions of people and I believe millions of them responded by praying. I also believe the prayers turned the tide. You may question whether President Bush was the right choice; obviously, he has made some blunders in his tenure as president. But two of his decisions alone left no doubt he was God’s choice: Roberts and Alito.

These two Supreme Court Justices have proven critical in the process of breaking the hold of humanism, death and anti-God agendas that have ruled the Court for 50 years. I assure you that more devastation, the shedding of innocent blood, immorality, decay of the family and an erosion of our godly heritage has flowed into our nation through that institution than any other door in America. Many times more. The poison allowed into America through their decisions is beyond any of our abilities to articulate. The reality in America is that you don’t need to control Congress or the White Hose to rule the nation. You only need 5 people out of 9 on the Supreme Court. And for decades those who disagree with just about everything you and I stand for have been in control! In Bush’s two terms, the process of turning this around began with the appointments of Roberts and Alito.

Now, we win some cases 5-4 and lose some 4-5. (We barely outlawed partial birth abortion. The vote of one judge saved thousands of babies from this horror.) We need one more conservative Justice for a consistent majority, then more to build a strong majority. In Obama’s own words, the next president will appoint at least one, perhaps two or more Supreme Court Justices. He’s right. Almost certainly two or more older, liberal Justices are waiting until after the elections to retire, in hopes of Obama winning and appointing more liberals to replace them. And he certainly would. He voted against the confirmation of Roberts and Alito. So did Biden. And Biden led the fight against Justice Thomas several years back, another of the 4 solid conservatives. Make no mistake about it, the two of them do have a litmus test for Supreme Court Justices, and a major part of that test is Roe vs. Wade. McCain and Palin, on the other hand, both have very strong pro-life positions.

This alone makes the choice for President simple. To vote for the 2nd and 3rd most liberal senators (Obama and Biden), both of whom are firmly and blatantly pro-abortion, would be unconscionable. Obama has actually said that if he wins, he would like his first action as president to be the signing of the Freedom of Choice Act, which would eliminate every other law against any aspect of abortion (partial birth abortion, parental notification, etc., etc.). And with a democratic majority in the House and Senate, pretty much any legislation he and Biden want to pass will be a slam-dunk. There are many other unrighteous positions they hold, but this position alone makes the choice easy. If they win this election, it will set America back decades in the cause of life and the restoration we seek. Just as many of you do, I too, want to see a first black President, but not Senator Obama. To allow that noble and godly desire, the economy or one’s position on the war to trump this issue of life and death for the innocent unborn, is simply wrong. The scriptures teach that if we choose first to exalt righteousness and turn from evil, God promises to heal our land (see Proverbs 14:34; 2 Chronicles 7:14). It is righteousness that exalts a nation, not wealth, prosperity or armies. If we will finish the process of removing the curses of death and anti-God laws off of America by electing a president that will continue to shift the Court, God will grace us with breakthrough in other areas such as the economy, the war against terrorism, etc. My faith is not in a person, and certainly not a political party, for the healing of America, but I know God’s word and His ways well enough to know that our decisions do move Him to action or inaction. Now to the heart of my reason for writing this letter, I realize I am preaching to the choir. Most of you, who know or listen to me, are conservative enough to vote for McCain and Palin. I have not written any appeals for prayer concerning this election because: others have, and I believe our movement has matured to the point that the prayer base of the Church is already praying. But I now feel the need to raise my voice. I am appealing to you to pray for these elections the next two weeks like you’ve never prayed for any in the past. Faithfully. Passionately. Boldly. Ask God for His mercy and grace.

We deserve His judgment for removing His influence and authority from our government, schools, homes and businesses; for the killing of 50 million babies; for leading the world in the consumption and exporting of pornography; for passing laws to reject His laws; etc. But mercy triumphs over judgment and in His wrath He remembers mercy. In 2000 we actually lost the popular vote and won the election, talk about grace! Please pray for this grace to be released again.

But I am also asking you for something more than normal prayer. For those of you who understand spiritual warfare, I am asking you to also include this aspect of prayer. There is no doubt that we have entered a Daniel 10 moment in time: Then he said to me, “Do not be afraid, Daniel, for from the first day that you set your heart on understanding this and on humbling yourself before your God, your words were heard. I have come in response to your words. But the prince of the kingdom of Persia was withstanding me for twenty-one days; then behold, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, for I had been left there with the kings of Persia. (Daniel 10: 12-13 NAS). The spiritual warfare in this election is incredibly fierce, and just as it was in Daniel’s day, it is all about the restoration of a nation. And also like Daniel, we must keep praying until we win the battle in the heavens. In August of this year I predicted that September would mark a shift in momentum for these elections. This happened with the appointment of Sarah Palin as the Vice Presidential nominee (who is a true Esther in our generation), but when the economy began its meltdown and the media ramped up their unprecedented attacks on Palin, that momentum wasn’t sustained. But we can see it turn again if we approach this battle as the spiritual warfare it truly is and bind the evil forces involved (see Matthew 16:18-19). The reality is that this election can be the breakthrough we need to fully shift the Court (and ultimately our nation) or it will be an immeasurable setback that could take many years to reverse, if ever. Please understand what I am saying: if we engage in this battle and do what I am asking in mass we will win; if we do not, we will lose. I, for one, don’t intend to allow the latter. I am in Washington, D.C. now (October 20-22) with Lou Engle and a team of prayer leaders from around the nation to war for this election.

Join us! Lose some sleep, miss some meals, pray! Pray like never before for these elections. And as you do, involve yourself not only in petitioning prayer but also in spiritual warfare.

Use your God-given authority over the plans and strategies of satan’s kingdom. Bind all witchcraft that is working to control the outcome, including occultic powers, suppressing truth.

Release Christ’s Kingdom rule in every way the Holy Spirit leads you. Don’t be deceived and don’t lose hope (if you have to, turn off the TV.) It is not too late to turn these elections.

God is plenty powerful enough to do so. The real question is will we rise to the level of prayer and spiritual warfare necessary to release that power. And remember, we don’t need a majority of Christians who are willing and able to do this only a praying remnant. We can do it!

Here are some practical suggestions to consider:
1) Fast (a meal a day; a day a week; a Daniel fast; 3 days; 10 days; TV; etc.) and spend the time praying.
2) Agree in prayer with someone everyday for God’s will to be done.
3) Form/participate in prayer groups regularly. Churches could pray everyday.
4) Take time in every gathering to pray. (Take 15 minutes in every service to pray for the elections. Turn an entire service to harp and bowl style intercession worship and prayer combined.)
5) Join 2 or more on a conference call and pray for 15, 20, or 30 minutes.
6) Pray on the way to work (and on the way home).
7) Pray before you go to sleep.
Cool Pray before church services.
9) Ask God to give you His strategy. He will!

In His grip, Dutch Sheets

Now that I think about it... I haven't seen her since the election.

WAY to long and I didn't read it, but if it has anything to do with a certain person winning an election, that's fucked up. We were supposed to pray for the will of God to be done, regardless of what it is.

The day before the election, one of my turbo-religious friends (okay, actually she's a friend of Jelly's, but that's besides the point), had a Wall post on her Facebook page about wanting all of her friends to watch a "very important video" before they vote. Of course, it was about Obama's stance on pro-choice. I looked at the various responses she got, most along the line of, "You go girl," or, "I don't see how a professed Christian can support killing babies" (of course, we all know the argument is about when life actually begins).

I smirked when a couple days after the election she had joined a new Facebook group called "Pray for President Obama."

Then, of course, I read today on Politico that Obama has missed church every week since the election, but has still managed to get to the gym every Sunday. Too good.

Glad to see it satisfied your self righteous ego, but regardless of who is president, we have to pray for them.

Okay, so you're still a bitter tool. I smirked because I am one of a very small handful of people in my circle of friends/family that is strongly liberal. In a very conservative part of the state, I "smirk" because I was glad I was on the winning side for a change.

(One such example is Smash Brothers Brawl. I call my cousins a few times a week to Brawl online and their family was strongly in support of McCain. So the day after the election, I took all of my online taunts and changed them stuff like, "Obama!" and "Yes we can." They told me it was hilarious.)

I strongly encourage sympathizers of this email to fervently carry out suggestions 1 through 9 as often as possible. While you are busy, the rest of us will occupy ourselves with actual useful shit that is relevant to reality.

Shel, I reread your comment here and suddenly had a small epiphany: it just about made my brain shoot out my ear. How could god's will NOT be done and why would he give a crap if you (or anyone else) spent any amount of time asking him to do what he's already decided to do? He's freaking GOD.

Just a thought...

This right here sums up my rage quite nicely. There is so much terrible, stupid shit far worse than abortion going on in this world that Christians should feel morally obligated to help fix, but they've got their heads so far up their asses on the issues that it makes me ashamed to be associated with them.

If the Christian right could just wake up one day, forget about gay marriage and abortion, and start focusing on, I dunno, REAL moral issues, this world would get a lot better.
