Doubt in My Mind That Conditions in America Today Rival Those Ofthe Ancient Pilgrims in Europe. (They Democratic P^Es Will Accom wimi rainuiu: ^iinsiians v^an uo ror America Page 1 of3 What Patriotic Christians Can Do For America by Chuck Baldwin December 19,2006 Among the hundreds ofemail letters I receive, scores ofthem ask the same question: "Isee the problem, but what can I do?" Today's column isan attempt to answer these people. First, let's acl^owledge that our Pilgrim forebears answered this question by leaving their homeland andrisking theirlives on a dangerous voyage across theAtlantic Ocean to a new world. There is no doubt in my mind that conditions in America today rival those ofthe ancient Pilgrims in Europe. (They are probably worse!) Obviously, there are no new worlds to settle, but I do know ofpeople who are relocating toother countries for reasons very similar to those ofour Pilgrim fathers. However, what can those ofus do who plan to stay and "tough itout" in America? Are we totally without recourse? Isthere nothing we can do to truly help turn the ship ofstate around? Let me begin by stating some things that will have very little impact on much ofanything. Continuing to vote for the majority ofestablishment candidates from both the Republican and Democratic p^es will accomplish nothing. Voters have been changing the composition oftheir various and smdry elected offices for decades, and nothing has changed. The country continues to plummet down theproverbial slippery slope. Attending the average church inthe United States will produce little salt toprotect against the forces of evil which currently seem to dominate our countiy. Regardless ofdenomination, most churches today refuse toaddress the crucial, salient issues that would educate and inspire people to make a difference. Neither will listening to the major news media, including Fox News, prepare one tobea difference- maker. With very few exceptions, the major TV newscasts and radio talk shows are regurgitating the same redundant propaganda. So, for those ofyou who really want to do something that will prepare you to make a difference inyour country, I offer the following suggestions. Ifyou are a Christian, do your best to find a church where the pastor knows what isgoing on and isnot afraid toteach and preach politically incorrect Bible truth. How far one might have to drive should not bea factor. Neither should denomination bea factor. Obviously, one cannot compromise fundamental convictions, but I would far rather worship ina church outside my denominational preference where the pastor was a bold and courageous champion oftruth than stay inthe denomination ofmy preference and sit undera milquetoast preacher. If one is not a Christian, he or sheshould become one and find this kind ofchurch. Our country's problems are, first and foremost, spiritual innature. Therefore, solutions will ultimately 12/19/2006 wnai ramoiic \^nrisiians c.an uo or America Page 2 of3 never be discovered inside the hallsof Congress; rather, they willbe found in thehearts and lives of God's people. "Judgment must begin atthe house ofGod." Ifenough people would leave these panty- waist, compromising, entertainment-evangelism, prosperity-theology, "purpose-driven" social clubs and start supporting true tell-it-like-it-is men of God, wecould see a genuine revival in America. Secondly, begin educating yourself. Stop relying onthe major news outlets to bring you the news. I heartily recommend the New American Magazine. Inmy mind, itisthe best news magazine out there. I also find Human Events newspaper veiy informative, and Middle American News isanother good one. There areseveral smaller, independent papers outthere, too. Forexample, in the Greenville, South Carolina area, the Times Examiner is an excellent resource. Internet newssitessuchas News With Views andWorld Net Daily arealsovaluable sources of mformation. Read everything Jerome Corsi writes. Get on Congressman Ron Paul's mailing list. Everyone should subscribe to Howard Phillips' "Issues and Strategy Bulletin." It is a fantastic resource! For educational matters, read John Stormer. John Eidsmoe isas good as they get regarding constitutional issues. For athorough and in-depth study ofeconomics, read Don McAlvany. Find non-establishment orindependent radio talk shows. People such as George Putnam inCalifornia, Barbara Jean Whiteley in Utah, StanMonteith in Colorado, and Adam McManus and AlexJonesin Texas come tomind. Alex istough to take, sometimes, and I'm not sure I subscribe to everything he says, but atleast he isinthe fight and not ^aid to take on the hard issues. Joel Skousen's web site isatreasure-trove ofuseful information. Christians will, no doubt, enjoy David Alan Black's web site. Covenant News might be the best web site regarding pro-life issues. Alan Keyes and Tom DeWeese also have excellent web sites. For family resources, I recommend Doug Phillips' Vision Forum. One should definitely receive Phyllis Schlafly's newsletters. PatBuchanan isanauthor and political commentator worth reading andlistening to. Thirdly, get involved with likeminded patriots. Hook up with your local John Birch Society. Join Larry Pratt's Gun Owners ofAmerica. Jews for the Preservation ofFirearms Ownership is another terrific pro-Second Amendment organization you shouldbe familiarwith. Inaddition, I recently left the GOP and am now proud to be identified with the Constitution Party. I recommend the CP to my readers. I also like what Jim Gilchrist isdoing with the Minuteman Project. Congressman TomTancredo deserves our support, too. Fourthly, never discount prayer. God's true champions have seldom, ifever, been a majority. Throughout histoiy, God has used a small number of faithful and courageous Christian soldiers to accomplish His divine will. He can still do so. Ifeveiyone reading this colunrn would sincerely and seriously bewilling tochange their affiliations and association, would endeavor to personally educate and inform themselves with thetruth, would endeavor tonot knowingly support organizations and individuals that contribute tothe compromise of ournational sovereignty and independence, and would bewilling tofervently and faithfully pray for America,there is no telling what may result. So, what are you waitingfor? Get busy! © Chuck Baldwin 12/19/2006.

  • CRITERIA for a SECURE HOME: in My Concept of Preparedness, Security Is Much More Than Having Good Door Locks and a Security System
    CRITERIA FOR A SECURE HOME: In my concept of preparedness, security is much more than having good door locks and a security system. Essential as those are, people in the Northeast found out this winter that security from crime is only a small portion of overall preparedness. Ultimately, every homes needs some depth in back-up contingencies in order to meet today's challenges. Let me ask you a few questions to illustrate: HOW SECURE IS YOUR PRESENT HOME? 1. Without electricity, how would you keep your house from freezing? Do you have some type of wood burning heater? What about hot water? 2. If you have gas, what type of contingency would you rely on in case of an earthquake where gas mains were put out of commission for a month or two? Do you have back-up cooking facilities? Can you heat hot water without gas? What if you lose both electricity and gas? 3. What about lights? If there is a major power outage lasting for more than a week, would you be willing to rely on batteries or candles for a long period? 4. What about water supplies. Do you have extra tanks of potable water at your disposal should the public supplies be cut off or contaminated. In a long term outage, would you know how to collect and filter water from your roof system, or build a rain water collection cistern? 5. If a storm damaged multiple windows in your home during the winter, would you have sufficient plastic sheeting and repair materials to quickly enclose the damage so as to keep heat in the home? EASY REMODELING SOLUTIONS TO GIVE YOUR HOME SOME CAPABILITY TO HANDLE MULTIPLE CRISES: 1.

    Alma 56 ᔢ Alma 56:1 And now it came to pass in the commencement of the thirtieth year of the reign of the judges [in 01ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQS|on RT] the second day [on 0ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQS|of > on 1|in RT] the first month . The earliest text (in © and ® as well as in all the early editions) reads “in the second day on the first month”, which the editors for the 1920 LDS edition emended to “on the second day in the first month”, consistent with what we expect in English and also generally consistent with usage else- where in the Book of Mormon text. It is quite possible that the original manuscript is in error, that somehow the two prepositions in and on got mixed up early on in the transmission of the text. On the other hand, there is some evidence in the Book of Mormon text for the use of in for days and on for months. To begin with, there is one other example of “in the Xth day” in the earliest text: 3 Nephi 8:5 (in edited to on in the 1920 LDS edition) in the thirty and fourth year in the first month [in 1ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQS|on RT] the fourth day of the month there arose a great storm © is not extant here, but since ® and the 1830 edition are firsthand copies of © here and both read in, most likely © also read in. One could argue, though, that this in in 3 Nephi 8:5 was the result of the preceding two occurrences of in: “in the thirty and fourth year in the first month”.

  • The Money Changers in the Temple of Ancient Jerusalem
    Selected introductory excerpt page from this newly entitled book: “Prophecy Realized” Roman fasci are bundles of wood rods tied together with a cord and a then a hatchet-head is placed at the top, each side facing its hatchet-head toward the podium. The bundle of birch sticks represents the belief that if all the fascist "New World Order" conspirators stick together like a bundle of sticks, their power cannot be broken, unlike a single stick alone which can be easily broken. Also the Nazi mace now with a metal eagle on top of it also stands to the right and back of the congressional podium. Go see the photo were it says: "We will Not Fail!" in the center of the Time magazine issue with CIA-puppet Osama Bin Laden’s portrait put up there shortly after 9-11 to intentionally confuse the world of who the real enemy is. It's right there in a wide-angle shot of the State of the Union address. ~ end of excerpt ~ Date Added: June 27th, 2004, Austin Texas Dear Audience Seeking the Truth, So, perhaps now you have seen the Michael Moore movie that scrapes out some surface truth to the American public. Michael Moore seems like an American patriot to some sort of extreme. Sadly, it is just a Hollywood-style act. Mr. Moore is still not willing to tell you the hard and ugly truth of the New World Order movement like Alex Jones of infowars.com and others. In fact, he is lying to all of you that see his film, right along with the rest of the mass media delivered on your television tonight.

  • Seattle Washington in Top 5 Most Dangerous Metro Areas
    Page 1 of 7 Jack Venrick From: "Jack Venrick" <[email protected]> To: "AJack R. Venrick" <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, May 13, 2009 10:46 PM Subject: Seattle Washington in Top 5 Most Dangerous Metro Areas In today’s bookstores, it’s easy to find information about the "best places" to live. Such literature undoubtedly will concentrate on the positive aspects of life, such as numbers and ratings of golf courses, doctor/patient ratios, warm sunny climates, availability of cultural activities, status of educational institutions, and the growth potential of the local economy. But while these highly-rated metropolitan areas may offer ample opportunities to enhance your lifestyle, what happens when a major crisis strikes? What if: a labor crisis halts the inflow of food and business goods? Will these communities provide the basic necessities of life? an economic crisis that threatens your pensions, investments and other so-called "guaranteed" income? a major earthquake or other natural disaster suddenly upset the natural social order for months at a time? Could you get out of harm's way if massive social unrest erupts in the wake of a crisis? the area’s freeways are clogged during an 9/17/2009 Page 2 of 7 emergency? Do you have contingency plans to exit the area? if the "unthinkable" happens—nuclear war? Or have you thought about the potential of a major terrorist attack on a U.S. city with chemical or biological weapons? It’s easy to dismiss these threats during times of peace and prosperity, but they are real. Not only that, but the probably of such events coming to pass increases every year.

The Legal Complaints Service has examined the allegations from a retired civil servant, Mrs Pat Middleton, but ruled in 2008 that her complaint about telephone tapping lay outside their jurisdiction.
