Evangelical Support of Israel

Do you think the Jewish people and the state of Israel are important to God? If not you might want to check out what the Bible teaches.
  No Israel has not done everything right or is every action she takes justified but Israel and the Jewish people do have a special place in the heart of God.
A church activist says an anti-Israel attitude is growing among some evangelicals.

Mark Tooley, president of the Institute on Religion and Democracy, sees an increase in anti-Israel viewpoints among "evangelical elites in academia, missions and young people attending evangelical colleges and seminaries."
Tooley adds that IRD has done more extensive study on the anti-Israel influences on evangelicals.

"IRD's Luke Moon has written an overview of many of the major evangelical figures and organizations involved in attempting to turn U.S. evangelicals in a more negative direction against Israel,” he tells OneNewsNow.

Tooley advises those of us who are
pro-Israel evangelicals to ask some pointed questions to those peers that have an anti-Israel perspective.
He says, the first question should be 'What do they want Israel to do that they think will lead to peace? Do they want Israel to completely withdraw to the old 1967 borders? Do they want Israel to offer an unrestricted right of full return for all descendants of Palestinians who originally lived in Israel  prior to the creation of Israel?' Next they should ask, 'if the Palestinians would not even accept those accommodations, what exactly is the solution from their perspective?'" - ( See more at: http://www.onenewsnow.com/church/2014/07/23/evangelicals-becoming-more-anti-israel#.U9EesGK9KSM )
www.onenewsnow.com/church/2014/07/23/evangelicals-becoming-more-anti-israel#.U9EesGK9KSM ) The truth is all Evangelicals should embrace the fact that the PLO wants to rid the world of Israel and the Jewish people. Thank God Hitler failed when he tried. We who are Evangelicals should defend Israel. If we don't we are disobeying God and could be opening the door for another Holocaust.

The left is lying about the Hobby Lobby Decision

The left is lying about the Hobby Lobby Decision

Don't you think the left and President Obama should accept defeat and say they were wrong to have tried to force the owners of a  private company like Hobby Lobby to pay for something that goes against their religious values now that the high court in the land has ruled against them. If you thought that would happen you were wrong.
Listen to how some on the left have reacted to the court's decision.
 Senator Harry Reid   posted It's time that five men on the Supreme Court stop deciding what happens to women.
 Elizabeth Warren    Posted Can't believe we live in a world where we'd even consider letting big corps deny women access to basic care based on vague moral objections.
Hillary Clinton said the following  “You watch women and girls being deprived of their rights, some of them never have them, some of them lose them. Among those rights is control over their body’s, control over their own health care, control over the size of their families. It is a disturbing trend that you see in a lot of societies that are very unstable, anti-democratic, and frankly prone to extremism. So to introduce this element into our society…it’s very troubling that a salesclerk at Hobby Lobby who needs contraception, which is pretty expensive, is not going to get that service through her employer’s health care plan because her employer doesn’t think she should be using contraception."
Hillary either doesn't know, or doesn't care, that Hobby Lobby already offered its employees coverage that included 16 types of contraception; their lawsuit was over having to pay for a small number of forms they consider to be abortion introducing drugs. And this isn't a matter of whether or not an employer thinks an employee "should be using" a product. It's about being compelled to pay for that product, under threat of heavy fines.
As was posted on  Townhall.com  Listening to some on the Left, though, one could be forgiven for thinking that the Court had outlawed womanhood itself.
The court was right. Now it is time for our leaders to go even farer and
repeal Obamacare totally.

Obama biggest regret in office.

Listen to the audio.

Don't you hate when those in political office use people. It drives me nuts when anyone is used to advance a political side and it for sure drives me crazy when children or older people are used that way,
    What do you think Obama's biggest regret  during his five-and-a-half years in the White House is?
   If your guess is not being able to work with congress or get both parties to work together you would be buzz wrong. What about seeing less abortions happening? Wrong again. What about cutting taxes on families? Buzz wrong.
   Nope it is "the fact that this society has not been willing to take some basic steps to keep guns of the hands of people who can do just, unbelievable damage," he said
Responding to a question from an acquaintance of one of the Santa Barbara victims, the president lamented: "We're the only developed country on earth where this happens, and it happens now once a week. ...I mean, our levels of gun violence are off the charts, there's no advanced developed country on earth that would put up with this.
"...The United States does not have a monopoly on crazy people...and yet we kill each other in these mass shootings," Mr. Obama went on. "The country has to do some soul-searching about this."
   I won't forget how Obama marched families on the White House front lawn from the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting after a bill failed to limit guns here in America. Obama is right the nation needs to do some soul -searching on this issue but the answer is not to take guns away from everyday  citizens who just want to keep their families safe. We must examine how we have removed values and yes God from our culture. And yes we must examine how we treat people who suffer from mental illness.
What do you think?
