OK Judge Threatens Christian Preacher with Arrest for Using Bible Verses in an Online Protest

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

An online Christian preacher has been ordered by a Washington County judge in Bartlesville, Oklahoma, to stay silent on social media for five years after he expressed his moral and religious concerns in posts about a church that endorses same-sex marriage and a public drag queen performance in front of children.

A team of attorneys with The Rutherford Institute, a nonprofit civil liberties organization, has stepped in to help Rich Penkoski. They’re asking the Oklahoma Supreme Court to overturn the five-year restraining order against him, denouncing it as excessive and a clear violation of the pastor’s First Amendment rights to freedom of speech and the free exercise of religion.

We better know what we believe and how to stand for what we believe. Christian persecution is ramping up. Rh

What Does America Want?

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

The American people want affordable power and fuel and energy autonomy. They do not want a Green New Deal that results in dependence on the Middle East.

They want fiscal sobriety, not a permanent stagflationary economy marked by bank failures, soaring interest rates, crony capitalism, and subsidies for those who choose not to work.

The Democratic Party vanished sometime in 2020.

It was absorbed by hard-left ideologues. They were bent on radically altering, or hijacking, existing institutions to force radical, equality-of-result agendas that otherwise do not earn majority support.

Who Am I?

It has been a while since I took a look at my stats. I am humbled that people from so many different areas are at least stopping to take a look at what I post. My main focus here is to spread news and information. I thought it might be time to let the new followers or guests that stop by to understand a little about me.

I am a born again believer, who has spent over 45 years in study of the Bible. A retired Pastor, Elder at the present time, Founder of Christian Conservative Coalition, Chairman of the Faith and Family Sub-Committee of the Collier County GOP.

My passion is to motivate Christians to get involved in government. As I look at the world today I try to use my Biblical expertise and the happening world events to discern the times we live in. We are in trouble. Many of my post will focus on political involvement and issues at home in America. However the Middle East is ground zero for all things related to what is brewing underneath. People fear what they don’t know, I hope to shed some light on where we are in the order of things related to the “end times”.

We are in the biggest fight we have ever been in to keep freedom, not only in America, but around the world. The One World Government boys are pushing hard to take over. This fight is a spiritual fight over ideas and control. It’s not a left vs. right political battle, but my feeling it is an all out good vs. evil fight. The morals of the world has gone into the cesspool. Lies, lack moral character, rule of law, stolen elections all for power and greed. It grieves my heart. You see I remember America as it used to be. A shiny light set on a hill, a beacon of freedom and hope for the world. Now, not so much.

In short thanks for dropping by. Sign up to receive my updates in your inbox. Spread the word and buckle up, things are beginning to heat up. Thanks again, Rh

House GOP Set to Vote on Bill that Could Lead to End of IRS

Abolish the IRS – that’s what some House Republicans are calling for.  In House Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s (R-CA) efforts to secure the needed support from his party to be their leader, he reportedly promised members of the House Freedom Caucus a vote on a bill that would replace the current federal tax system – including the income tax – with a national consumption tax, which could lead to the end of the Internal Revenue Service. 

While Democrats and President Joe Biden are working to boost the IRS by hiring 87,000 employees over the next 10 years, Republicans have introduced a bill that could do away with the agency entirely. The measure is called the Fair Tax Act. 

“Very few people like paying taxes but if they’re going to pay taxes they would much rather pay a consumption tax as opposed to a property tax or an income tax or a payroll tax,” said U.S. Rep. Buddy Carter (R-GA), who introduced the bill.

A Raging Battle

A phrase that I and many others have voiced on many occasions, “we are in a battle for the soul of America.” Truer words were never spoken. I write this short blog to lay out my feelings and more importantly my deeply held convictions.

First, I am an ordained Pastor who believes that righteousness exalts a nation, but evil rulers are an abomination to a people. At the present time we are ruled in both parties, but more so in the democratic socialist by demagogues. Ruling class pols that have no desire for the good of our nation.

Our battle is one of a spiritual fight, (Ephesians 6:10-18) and needs to be conquered as such! Years ago our Congress would debate and fight over spending and programs to help the poor or how to increase economic development and military spending. Not anymore.

Every issue that comes to the forefront today is a social construct. Each and everyone is a fist into the air against traditional values or Biblical values that America was founded on and churches and moral people accepted. The only way to defeat this enemy, and it is an enemy of the people, is to go full fledged into spiritual warfare. It’s not flesh and blood, but spiritual forces we are up against. Prayer is our weapon, but not the only weapon. We must use the shoes (Ephesians 6:15 to get out and do the work of an evangelist to save our country. God wants us to partner with him.

The battle is the Lord’s, but we are the foot soldiers. Hooray!

America’s Solution

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

I read this and saved it some time ago and for the life of me can’t find who wrote it. Powerful word for today. – Author unknown

From William Bradford and the Pilgrims to the Founding Fathers, greatness was understood in the context of the blessing of God; our founding documents reflect this.

Can America recover? If our only hope is in cultural reclamation through the political process, our chances are nil. Our national sickness goes much deeper than politics; our problem is spiritual and the only true solution is also spiritual. The People of God must see through our enemy’s curtain and recognize Satan’s ability to work through mortals to achieve his sinister goals. After all, he is the Father of Lies and the Great Deceiver and can distract people with decoys, and counterfeits as a wolf in sheep’s clothing. We must grasp the nature of our enemy and pray accordingly, not being distracted by illusions and paper tigers. Now is not the time to self-censor and cower to the cultural elites, hoping for better days ahead. We are in a spiritual battle and must see ourselves as the Resistance of our day. We adopt no exit plan. We recognize our enemy’s tactics, expose his lies, and proclaim truth. Although Satan masquerades as an angel of light, once exposed, he runs for cover. Truth sets us free so we run toward the battle and not away from it.

Like the Founding Fathers, the People of God must care enough about their homeland to take action. Prayer is our greatest weapon but only effective when it’s utilized. America will outlast all the great civilizations of the past when she falls to her knees in humility and prayer. These are the tactics that will restore our greatness and bring revival. Author Unknown
