Peace on Earth
« on: December 23, 2004, 06:22:02 AM »
Merry Christmas everyone...all around the world.  And this year... (despite fears that our rights are being taken away)  I will continue to worship and celebrate according to my beliefs and convictions.  I AM still FREE to do that.  Please remember in prayer our men and women in the military and the veterans who gave us these privlidges.  Our troops could sure use our support during this holiday away from home.  God Bless them, every man and woman.  And dear Lord....please bless Israel...may this year be the year that they REMEMBER the NAME that they call themselves by...ISRAEL...GOD's  People.  I think it is time that they amaze the entire world and start to be an example of GODLINESS instead of WAR.  Peace and Goodwill to Everyone...of Every faith and belief.
....make it count

Merry Chrismas, Robert.

Unfortunately, I believe that it is posts like your that serve to acclimate our People to process of incremental infringement upon our natural rights, or as you said earlier "fears that our rights are being taken away".

You own language adds substance to the slippry slope.

The question in my mind is, do you believe that your "freedom" to "worship and celebrate according to my beliefs and convictions" is a "right" bestowed upon you by the creator, or a "privilege" given to you by the military and it's veterans?

Not trying to criticize or insult or any BS like that, just something I noted while reading your post.

Again, Merry Christmas to you and yours.
They may talk of a "New Order" in the  world, but what they have in mind is only a revival of the oldest and worst tyranny.   No liberty, no religion, no hope.   It is an unholy alliance of power and pelf to dominate and to enslave the human race.

Well said Robert. Life is such a short and fragil thing. We need to be grateful for every day we are allowed to draw another breath and give thanks for it. We need to get ourselves ready and prepared for the coming of our Lord as I believe our time is short. It's been said that all major wars have been fought over religion and I believe they were right. I just hope we never turn our backs on Israel. Right now I see the United States in a state of decline. We were once a world leader in manufacturing, education, job creation, and many other things. We have now turned into a beggar nation, having to depend on other nations for things from oil to food. If tomorrow all imported goods stopped the nation would be in a panic. Prepare yourself, be ready for He is coming soon.
FREEDOM IS WORTH FIGHTING FOR-ARE YOU WILLING TO DIE FOR IT--------IT'S HARD TO SOAR LIKE AN EAGLE WHEN YOU ARE SURROUNDED BY TURKEYS
