Essential Liberty

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.” Benjamin Franklin.

Do they know what they are doing??  Yes

Good morning and welcome to a rather long, I fear, and disjointed effort to dislodge my thoughts that keep burrowing in my head. I want to share with you some of what is going on that to be quite honest are (shocking, unbelievable).  The smartest of the smartest, or at least those who think they are, have charted this world on a course of destruction.  Whether it be AI or a call for a one world government, with one distinct person in charge, opening borders that destroy nation pride and identity.  Planned destruction?  I think so.  

Let me explain, greed and a lust for power have motivated people all the way back into Bible days. But today the lust for control is growing and becoming an almost daily occurrence in our news.  Take for example the octogenarians that waddle into the Senate and grace our hollowed halls of government, they just can’t turn loose of power.  The Bible says that pride goes before a fall, and at times they do fall, literally.  There seems to be more walkers and handicap parking in Congress than brains. The spectacle is embarrassing.  Go home, be with your family.  Cognitive test anyone??

They, whoever they may be, we know the usual suspects, or culprits if you will. The world economic forum, club of Rome, the rulers and potentates of several European countries, even looking into our own country in the Congress, which has senators and representatives that have allowed a beginning destruction of not only our values, but also of our morality.  Desiring  the destruction of our identity of who the United States of America truly is. What might seem to be deception and disinformation or uncertainty is actually a playbook for control and manipulation. 

2 Timothy 3:1, which I use ad nauseam, talks about that the last days would have perilous times. In the Greek that word perilous means the idea of a “raging sea or wild animals roaming” through cities and in the countryside. What a perfect description of what we’re seeing today. It may be a little uncouth and mean spirited to say it, but we’ve seen wild animals roaming in Minneapolis, Portland, and New York in particular. They are planned seeds of destruction, not random peace rallies that happen to go out of control. They’re bought and paid for and their purpose is to continue the further destruction of law and order and the rule of law and truth in America. 

 The reaction of the feds is totally different than it was on January 7th. When socialist maim and burn a city, it just got out of hand, when Patriots do it without violence they are put into the political “gulag”. The rule of law does not exist in our country anymore, the American politburo won’t allow their kind (ruling class) to be held accountable. Rumors of paid slush funds, taxpayer money paid to silence alleged sexual  misconduct by high ranking Congressional officials.  The Epstein files were released with heavy, almost unreadable redactions. The two tiered Justice system is driving a wedge in this country and causing division that puts one tribe against another tribe and destroying unity and love for this land, and American culture. 

Let’s talk truth, what is truth?  Truth is found in a person, Jesus Christ.  The battle to silence truth is only going to get worse with AI. What to believe, and even how to distinguish truth is difficult.  Truth has fallen in the streets, trampled upon with the destruction of our heritage and values that are quickly fading away.  With the coming AI revolution with its deceiving ability, who knows what to believe. Deception, the greatest tool of the enemy of your soul.  Guard your hearts my friends and seek genuine truth.

Back to the Franklin quote. My dear Benjamin, excuse me for the informality, but yes we will give up liberty for seeming safety.  The seeds of that notion, perpetrated by the Federal government, happened decades ago.  As a Russian dictator once said, while being shoeless at the United Nations “We do not have to invade the United States, we will destroy you from within.” Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev. 

Sorry, Nikita, don’t think it will happen but we are only one election or maybe two away from that possible realization. Check out the socialist haven called New York City.  Gotham has fallen, has fallen!

Ben is turning over in his grave.  God have mercy on us!

Hillary Clinton Insists Christian Men Are Damaging The Path Forward For America – Harbinger’s Daily

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

Dear readers, sorry to have to put you through this, but this is priceless. I guess she has time to spread mor radical feminist propaganda before testifying in Congress. Old and tired doesn’t look good on radicals. Rh

Earlier this week, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said out loud what many socially conservative Christian believers have long suspected radical factions of culture contend to be fact: White, Christian, heterosexual men are the cause of all kinds of problems, and maybe even behind the collapse of Western Civilization…

School Boards are Failing Their Responsibility

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

School board officials work hard, and the work is not easy. But let’s be honest: their responsibilities are clear. They are elected to 1) meet children’s educational needs; 2) partner with parents to that end; and 3) help teachers navigate the challenges of today’s classrooms.

Sadly, Jefferson County Public Schools is 0 for 3.

We learned the score firsthand when my wife, Serena, went along on a multi-day school-sponsored trip to Philadelphia and Washington, D.C., with our 11-year-old daughter. On the first night, as students settled into their hotel rooms, Serena received a call from our little girl.

With a quiver in her voice, she told Serena that she had discovered that her bedmate was a boy and she didn’t know what to do.

Conservative lawmakers recently unveiled a budget bill containing numerous pro-life policies with a full defund of Big Abortion organizations – including Planned Parenthood.

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

The Republican Study Committee’s (RSC) budget blueprint was unveiled on Jan. 8 by RSC Chairman August Pfluger (R-TX) and Budget and Spending Task Force Chair Beth Van Duyne (R-TX). Titled “Restoring America’s Golden Age,” it contains proposals to beef up border security, cut wasteful spending, reform entitlement programs and increase American energy production.

The budget provides a “comprehensive fiscal roadmap that balances the federal budget within ten years, and returns spending to pre-pandemic levels.”

The budget also contains numerous pro-life policies. It “ensures Planned Parenthood no longer benefits from taxpayer dollars” and “completely eliminates Title X Family Planning funding to save the lives of countless innocent children.”

According to an RSC press release, the budget focuses on “making the American Dream affordable again” by:

  • Restoring the American dream of homeownership.
  • Delivering healthcare freedom and lower drug prices.
  • Reducing energy bills and gasoline prices.
  • Rebuilding the American family by eliminating marriage penalties, supporting stay-at-home parents and eviscerating radical gender ideology.
  • Cutting wasteful government spending.
  • Codifying President Trump’s executive orders.

“At its core, the RSC Budget is a fundamental rejection of the excessive government spending and regulatory overreach that characterized the Biden Administration’s approach to government,” the RSC budget reads.

The RSC is a congressional caucus of conservative members in the U.S. House of Representatives. It was formed in 1973 by Paul Weyrich and others to help advance conservative priorities and check the House’s Republican leadership, which they saw as too moderate. Currently 188 congressmen are members of the RSC.

Additionally, the budget supports multiple pro-life bills and priorities, including:

  • Rep. Warren Davidson’s (R-OH) bill, the Aid Accountability Act, which would eliminate funding for any federal employee or non-governmental organization violating the Helms Amendment, which prohibits the use of any U.S. foreign aid to perform or encourage abortion.
  • Rep. Chip Roy’s (R-TX) bill, the No Taxpayer Funding for the U.N. Population Fund, which would prohibit any federal agency from giving taxpayer dollars to the U.N. Population Fund – which has supported China’s population-control programs, including forced abortions and sterilizations.
  • Rep. Eric Burlison’s (R-MO) bill, the Life at Conception Act, which would recognize unborn children as “persons” under the 14th Amendment of the Constitution.
  • Rep. Mark Harris’ (R-NC) bill, the Teleabortion Prevention Act, which would make it a federal offense for doctors to send abortion pills through the mail.
  • Rep. Mike Kelly’s (R-PA) bill, the Heartbeat Protection Act, which would prohibit abortions when a baby’s heartbeat is detected.
  • Rep. Ann Wagner’s (R-MO) bill, the Born-Alive Survivor’s Protection Act, which would ensure medical protections for babies who survive an attempted abortion.

The budget blueprint provides a roadmap for a second reconciliation bill in the 119th Congress. Republicans utilized the reconciliation process last year to enact the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA), which President Donald J. Trump signed into law on July 4.

The reconciliation process, a budget maneuver provided for under the Congressional Budget Act of 1974, allows a budget bill to be passed with only a majority vote (51 votes) in the Senate, rather than the usually required three-fifths majority.

The OBBBA contained a provision defunding Big Abortion organizations – including Planned Parenthood – of all taxpayer dollars, costing the nation’s largest abortion mill roughly $850 million. However, the provision lasts only for one year.

“With so much of President Trump’s America First agenda still to enact,” the RSC added, “failing to seize this opportunity would be political malpractice.”

“The first reconciliation bill launched America’s Golden Age through economic and security reforms. The next reconciliation bill should focus on cementing the progress we’ve made on affordability in order to restore the American Dream for every family.”

Not every provision of the RSC’s proposal will be retained as the budget process moves forward. Nevertheless, it’s greatly encouraging that the RSC budget contains so many strong pro-life provisions.

Let’s hope and pray that if the House and Senate pass a second reconciliation bill later this year, Big Abortion providers will be defunded – again.

Pro-Family Coalition Urges Executive Order To Protect Religious Freedom Of Christian Parents

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

A pro-family, pro-child coalition urged the Trump administration this week to issue an executive order protecting parental rights and the religious freedom of Christian parents and foster parents.

The proposed order, which the coalition workshopped with the White House Domestic Policy Council on Wednesday, would:

  • Explicitly affirm parents’ constitutional right to raise their children according to their religious beliefs.
  • Repeal federal foster care rules preventing or obstructing people who affirm biological sex from becoming foster parents.
  • Prohibit organizations from using federal funds to remove children from parents who do not affirm same-sex attraction or sexual identity confusion.
  • Remove federal funding from organizations which help children conceal sexual identity confusion from their parents.

These four recommendations would prevent federal and state governments from unconstitutionally withholding adoption and foster care licenses from Christians or taking children with sexual identity confusion away from loving, Christian parents.

States like Colorado, Massachusetts, Vermont, Oregon, Washington and Californiarequire prospective foster parents to affirm a child’s same-sex attraction and sexual identity confusion.

In 2024, the Department of Health and Human Services released regulations giving progressive, “gender affirming” foster care placement organizations privileged status over biology-affirming ones.

Policies like these prevent people like Jessica Bates, Bryan and Rebecca Gantt, Brian and Katy Wuoti and Mike and Kitty Burkes from fostering or adopting some of the estimated 400,000 children in the U.S. foster care system.

Parents in many states can also lose custody of their children for failure to affirm their same-sex attraction or sexual identity confusion.

The Indiana Department of Child Services took custody of Mary and Jeremy Cox’s 16-year-old son after the couple refused to affirm his “transgender identity.” A court eventually found the Cox’s had not abused their son — but the state never gave him back.

He remained in the department’s care to receive treatment for an eating disorder which had worsened while he was away from home.

The Coxes are just one of innumerable heartbreaking examples of state agencies taking children from loving parents who affirm biological. Erin Friday, one of the coalition leaders who met with the White House on Wednesday, says the number of families in this situation far exceeds most people’s expectations.

“The public is unaware that children are being kidnapped by child protective services and family judges because these cases are usually sealed or there are confidentiality laws that prevent parents from going public,” she told The Daily Signal.

Christian parents need not have their child taken to suffer under child protective agencies’ scrutiny.

Erin Lee received an unexpected visit from the Colorado Department of Human Services after she tried to hold her daughter’s public school accountable for secretly teaching gender ideology.

“We managed to evade losing our children that day, but I’ve met many parents who weren’t so lucky,” Lee, who eventually saved her daughter from damaging sexual identity confusion, told the Daily Wire.

She continued: “I also had a six-year-old and an infant at the time and I shudder to think that I could have lost all three of my kids for being a good parent, for being unwilling to lie to my daughter and send her down a path of self-hatred and destruction.”

Laws and policies penalizing Christian parents and prospective foster parents for questioning “gender affirming care” are increasingly ludicrous given the mounting evidence proving sex-rejecting procedures harm minors.

The Department of Health and Human Services’ own, peer-reviewed report found “transgender” medical interventions — including puberty blockers, wrong-sex hormones and surgeries — pose “significant, long term and too often ignored” harms to children.

It’s about time America’s foster care systems reflect reality.

It is time to return to Biblical and moral values in America. We were founded on religious freedom and no blue state socialists who wishes to destroy the family unit and push immorality should be allowed to do so. Protect religious freedom and pro life, Mr President. That is what I voted for and what you said you would do! Rh

Free From In Dwelling Sin

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

 Romans 8:1-11

Romans Chapter 8 is one of my favorite chapters in the Bible, I have even called it the most perfect chapter in the Bible.  😁But then again I declare that of lots of other chapters.  Paul has just dealt with people who strive against sin in chapters 6 & 7.  Now he turns the page.

“There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.”

‭‭Romans‬ ‭8‬:‭1‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

https://bible.com/bible/114/rom.8.1.NKJV

It begins with the idea of freedom from sin.  Once sin is confessed and put under the blood of Jesus, there is no condemnation for the believer.  Many Christians suffer from condemnation, but in Christ we are free.  Christ came as the righteous requirement of the law.  He paid the price for our disobedience.  

“For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.”

‭‭Romans‬ ‭8‬:‭5‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

https://bible.com/bible/114/rom.8.5.NKJV

Paul warns us in v.5 to set our minds not on the fleshy sinful things, but on the things of the Spirit.  I call it “stinking thinking,” focus on the Word and Jesus Christ.  Being carnal mined brings death, but spiritual minedness brings life and peace. Read the Word, consume the Word and do the Word!  The Bible must be your foundation.

We must realize that once saved, we have moved from death to life.  We have a new thought process centered on Jesus.  We don’t walk in fleshy or lustful desire, but we walk in the Spirit to please God.  

Many struggle with ongoing sin or disobedience.  We make mistakes, say the wrong thing, get angry or hurt someone with our words or actions. Pray, ask forgiveness and go on.  Remember no condemnation.  We have the power through the Holy Spirit to live above our old life.  New life fresh and powerful in Christ.  Don’t be too hard on yourself, but keep the faith and keep striving to please God.  He loves you and knows your heart.

“But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.”

‭‭Romans‬ ‭8‬:‭11‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Let the Holy Spirit be your best friend.  Rh

 Why Are Democrats Consumed With Sex & Nudity

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

The question is a good one, why are democrats so in love with sex and nudity?  It seems that every protest the radical luciferians do is rooted in either taking their clothes off or flaunting an alternative lifestyle on national TV.  Trying to make the obscene normal.  Is it only a rebellion against traditional values, or is there a more deep seated impulse that comes into play.  I believe it is much more than just trying to shock, it is also an intimidation technique. Since normal humanity is repulsed by their activity, it lessens the pushback at the demonstrations.  

When the Supreme Court ruled that abortion was not found as a constitutional right, off came the shirts of the so called feminist.  By the way, have you seen some of these chicks? No thank you.  Conservative chicks ok, but left wingers, not so much most look like men.They flaunt not only their desire to murder babies in the womb, but also express their hatred of normalcy and the decency laws of the land.  Take the recent attempt at a “No Kings” rally, nakedness and carnality was the rule of the day.  By the way “so called men.” I prefer the term soy boys who attempt to make their point by dressing down.  All the way to garter belts, g-strings, and penis costumes.  How does one take these malcontents seriously?  We don’t, but the mainstream media and the fellow democrats in Congress surely do.  In the next paragraph will tell you all you need to know about ½ of congress.

What’s up with the old hippies?  Old white liberals must all be bored to death or something.  Every protest you see them hobbling down the street trying to keep up. White liberal women are the worst, and of course their husbands, geez,they only show up to support them or they will not get any peace at home.  Or sex.  But then have you seen them?  They dress and act and look like men.

In my opinion, and I think I have the Word of the Lord to back me up, they are being used by demonic spirits to act out.  They are either oppressed or possessed by demons.  ”Oh  my, that is so harsh, you are so hateful.”  Exactly what the trans mafia has called me for years.  No, I stand on the Word of God who declares that type of behavior indecent and evil.  In fact Romans Chapter 1 called it an abomination.  

Remember the Gadarene man who was possessed by a legion of demons?  He couldn’t keep his clothes on either or how about the demon in Acts 19:13-16 In Ephesus that jumped on seven brothers who attempted to cast out the demon.  They were ceremoniously attacked, prevailed against the brothers and left them screaming and running through the city naked.

Why oh why are obscenity laws not enforced.  Why do we let those who are completely void of common sense be allowed to act in such an immature and childish manner.  It seems that nakedness and sexual deviancy is the accepted form of protest in our country.   America has not only a mental health crisis, but an intense spiritual war on decency, culture and our American values. And in many cases they are one in the same.

Are We Better Today?

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

I wonder sometimes how you could be living at the time when the Nazi’s came into power, and not realize who they were or what they intended to do to the Jews.. We always want to condemn the German people, saying they should’ve spoken , they should’ve done something, why could they not find their Voice? The churches that had service near the railroad tracks were told to sing louder as the trains would go by taking the Jews to the concentration camps.  Trying to drown out the sounds of not only the trains, but the screams of the Jews who had been loaded into the trains like cattle for slaughter.  Are we any better today?

France, England, Australia, and Canada among other nations are promoting a two state solution in the nation of Israel. They are in effect backing a group of people that invaded a peaceful music festival and went on a killing spree, murdering and raping and taking captive innocent young people.  Hamas crossed the border on October 7th without any warning, like cowards in the middle of the night and without any warning.  And they cared not whether they were Jews or other nationalities, as long as they were there and on the land of Israel, then they were fair game to be murdered. You woke hippocritical countries spread lies about the Jews about those that live in Israel, are you not just as bad as those that kept their mouth shut when the Jews in Poland were sent to the gas chambers?  Are we any better today?

Even here in America, one of the most popular podcasts had a far right wing supremacist on his highly popular podcast. Tucker Carlson, who has joined the ranks of the antisemites, gave a platform to a known Jew hating extremist.  Nick Fuentes who speaks of his desire to drive “Zionist Jews,” out of American life. Fuentes is also a holocaust denier.”  Let’s not let Tucker off the hook either.  He calls Christians who support Israel,  like Senator Ted Cruz, Ambassador Huckleby and others, heretics.  Good old Qatarlson is always pushing the false narrative of the radical left and the woke right about Israel and the so-called “Palestinians.”  Young people especially are susceptible to Tucker’s lies and innuendos about Israel.  Even some churches and otherwise good Christians will swallow his lies. How can we,  a sane society fall for the lies of the haters of Israel.  We should know better, but we are deceived by the constant propaganda of the media and the left around the world.  Are we any better today?  

On another note, we were shocked at the medical experiments the Nazi”s performed on the Jews and Gypsies.  But are we better off with our penchant for abortion up to and through birth?  Planned Parenthood sells aborted babies body parts, even profiting on that sale, making money on murder.  What of the Gender confusion?  Well known hospitals and doctors are cutting off body parts of healthy boys and girls so they could presumably change genders.  Mutilation and killing from a profession that is called to heal and do no harm.  Hippocratic oath anyone?  And beyond that expecting a society to celebrate what years ago would be called mental disease.  Are we any better today?

Political violence is on the rampage.  A huge section of the left says it is ok to violently protest and even do harm to conservatives.  The recent assassination of Charlie Kirk brought out the crazies.  Teachers, social media influencers and politicians were not even expressing sympathy for the loss of life.  Many even encouraged this type of insane action to those they disagree with.  What has become of us?  Who are we?  Are we any better today?

Let me be clear, I love America.  We are not a righteous nation, and neither is Israel.  (So don’t throw that argument at me.)  We need revival in this country as well as around the world.  The same devil and the same hatred is here today as in any other decade.  Prayer, confession and repentance is the only way to ensure our safety and further prosperity.  Pray for the United States of America to regain its moral compass.  Our foundations need to be restored.  Sin is sin.  Are we any better today?  No

Just my opinion.  Maranatha!
