“Millions of Christians around the world will unite in prayer for the persecuted church this Sunday (Nov.11), remembering those Christians experiencing persecution, who couple their experiences with thankfulness to God for “the privilege of suffering for His name’s sake.

In a media release, Reverend Eric Foley, CEO of Seoul USA says he was surprised when he first asked members of the North Korean underground church how Americans could pray for them.

“They answered, ‘You pray for us? We pray for you!’ When I asked why, they responded, ‘Because Western Christians often put so much faith in their prosperity and political freedoms that they don’t know what it’s like to have to depend completely on God. And because of that, they often do not get to know him in all the ways he invites us to.'”

Many dreams die because they are shared with the wrong people.

-Pastor Timothy V. Shockley Sr.-

“Remember, others do not see what you see. They cannot completely understand the vision God has given you. Protect your potential by choosing carefully those with whom you share your dreams and aspirations, and by maintaining an environment in which your potential can be fulfilled. To maximize your life you must manage your environment and the quality of the people and resources that influence you. Your greatest responsibility is to yourself, not others.”

U.S. elections have passed …

Relationships affected by debates begin to regulate even if for some it will take longer considering these debates …

Pastors will begin to preach again that it was God‘s will and maybe it was …

…. but I personally have a  great uncertainty.

HOW to believe that God was involved in this election once in the States of Maine and Maryland, for the first time in U.S. history, through a popular vote was legalized same-sex marriages? Since 1998, 32 different states have been trying to impose on the ballot this law against the teaching of the Holy Scriptures and failed (yes, I can believe that God was involved in those elections but not now …). And I can not forget that earlier this year, Barack Obama was the first incumbent president that endorse legalizing same-sex marriages.

HOW to believe that God was involved in this election once in the States of Colorado and Washington, for the first time in U.S. history, by popular vote was legalized use of marijuana as “recreational use”. For me the more interesting is that both states are arguing for “supremacy” in the legalization as if a great honor is to be the number one. (To be political correct,  Colorado “deserve” to be number one because the polls was close one hour early then Washington).

HOW to believe that God was involved in this election once in the State of Wisconsin for the first time in U.S. history, through a popular vote was elected senator one openly gay, Tammy Baldwin.

When God is involved in choices, can that staff happen?

Pastors will begin to preach again that it is the will of God and maybe it was ……

 ….. but I personally have a great uncertainty !

And if you still believe God was involved in this election, He did it by not showing up:

“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.” (Romans 1:28)

“When that day comes, you will cry out for relief from the king you have chosen, and the LORD will not answer you in that day.” (1 Samuel 8:18)

Alegerile in SUA au trecut…

Relatiile afectate de dezbateri incep sa se reglementeze chiar daca pentru unele va dura mai mult tinand cont de acerbicia acestor dezbateri…

Pastorii vor incepe din nou sa ne predice ca asa a fost voia Domnului si  poate a fost…

….dar eu personal am mari incertitudini. 

CUM SA CRED CA DUMNEZEU A FOST IMPLICAT IN ACESTE ALEGERI cand in statele Maine si Maryland, pentru prima data in istoria Statelor Unite PRIN VOT POPULAR, au fost legalizate casatoriile cu persoane de acelasi sex? Incepand din 1998, 32 de state diferite au tot incercat sa impuna pe buletinul de vot aceasta lege impotriva invataturii Sfintelor Scripturi  si nu au reusit (da, pot sa cred ca atunci la acele alegeri Dumnezeu S-a implicat dar nu acum…). Si nu pot sa uit ca la inceputul acestui an, Barack Obama a fost primul presedinte in exercitiu care a aprobat ( “endorse” cum spunem in USA) legalizarea casatoriilor cu persoane de acelasi sex.

CUM SA CRED CA DUMNEZEU A FOST IMPLICAT IN ACESTE ALEGERI cand in statele Colorado si Washington, pentru prima data in istoria Statelor Unite PRIN VOT POPULAR, a fost legalizata folosirea drogului marijuana (cannabis in Europa) ca placere (“recreational use”). Pentru mine si mai interesant este faptul ca amandoua statele se cearta pentru “intiietatea” acestei legalizari, de parca ar fi mare onoare pentru asa ceva.

CUM SA CRED CA DUMNEZEU A FOST IMPLICAT IN ACESTE ALEGERI cand in statul Wisconsin, pentru prima data in istoria Statelor Unite PRIN VOT POPULAR,  a fost ales senator o lesbianca (“openly gay”) declarata, Tammy Baldwin.

Cand Dumnezeu se implica in alegeri se pot intampla asemenea mostruozitati?

Pastorii vor incepe sa predice din nou ca asa este voia Domnului si poate este……

…..dar eu personal am mari incertitudini!

Si daca totusi Dumnezeu s-a implicat in aceste alegeri, a facut-o prin neprezentare:

                                                                                                                                         “Fiindca n-au cautat sa pastreze pe Dumnezeu in cunostinta lor, Dumnezeu i-a lasat in voia mintii lor blestemate, ca sa faca lucruri neingaduite.” (Rom.1:28)

“Si atunci veti striga impotriva imparatului vostru pe care (voi il) veti alege, dar Domnul nu va va asculta.” (1 Samuel 8:18)

Obama Wins! Behold The Rise Of The Muslim King

“America, you are finished. Our days of being any kind of a world power are now officially at an end. We have re-elected a leader which hates Israel, hates freedom, and is against everything that God stands for. We have been judged for our national sins and been given a ruler, a dark king over us which is the just recompense of our sins.

We will now enter into a prolonged period of wars, famine, of disease, of unrequited misery.

The $16,000,000,000,000.00 debt we carry will only grow until it bursts us at the seams.

Obama now will finish his work of crippling our financial system, adding millions more to welfare and food stamps, and decimating our military.

We will continue slaughtering babies by the millions through abortion, and glorifying the abomination of homosexuality.”

Philly poll workers partially cover Obama mural after court order, leaving logo and quote in view

“Workers at a Philadelphia polling place, after being ordered by a judge to cover up a mural of President Obama “in its entirety,” slapped up a few pieces of paper that only partially covered his image — while leaving the Obama campaign logo and a quote from the current president in full view for voters.”

Republican congressional candidate David Rosa was turned away from the polls on Tuesday because a database said that he had already voted, according to his campaign.

The campaign said in an email to press that his son, David L. Rosa II, was classified as Rosa, Sr., when he mailed in a ballot, making the actual Rosa, Sr., come up as having already voted. He was instead asked to submit a provisional ballot — which are given to voters when there are questions regarding their eligibility and are voted after election day — but turned it down.

“I am disappointed that I can not vote this morning,” Rosa said in a statement. “I will be here until I can cast a ballot. This election is too important for any vote to be discounted due to error.”

Rosa is running in the largely Democratic 20th District of Texas, which includes parts of San Antonio. The seat is up for grabs after longtime Rep. Charlie Gonzalez (D-Texas) announced his retirement, but Democratic candidate Joaquín Castro — the brother of San Antonio mayor and Democratic National Convention keynote speaker Julián Castro — is heavily favored to win.

UPDATE: 12:10 p.m. — Rosa’s campaign emailed reporters to say he decided to cast a provisional ballot after all, meaning it won’t be counted until after election day.

Illegal immigrants are boycotting Arizona by the thousands, showing their outrage with Arizona’s controversial new SB-1070 law by moving elsewhere. 

In the small town of Guadalupe, AZ, south of Phoenix , Manuel Renaldo is one of those who is punishing Arizona by leaving. As he loaded his car with his belongings and family of 14, Renaldo told this reporter through an interpreter “It’s a matter of principle; I refuse to be supported by a state that treats me like a criminal!

“Prosperity Gospel Preacher T.D. Jakes has now officially yoked himself with the New Age Movement as he has joined Oprah Winfrey’s roster of New Age mystics and gurus for her “Lifeclass Series.” Jakes, who is famous for saying “Jesus is the product” when referring to his multi-million dollar media empire which includes books, movies and his Potter’s House Prosperity Gospel church, is now selling his wares to Oprah Winfrey’s mega-audience of devoted followers. And in Jakes’ preaching on “Purpose” and how to find it, there is no mention of the name of Jesus Christ.”
