Tom, Cindy
Thanks, Tom. Yes, I do have a church to support me, and many strong Believers in the Gospel. I've actually done a lot of "soul-searching," and I have come to the conclusion, that throughout such tribulations I shall resign myself to don the Fruit of the Spirit - no matter what anybody says or does. I've recently submitted a couple of politically-based, strongly worded letters to the editor, and I'm even having guilt issues over such. However true the letters are, it's a complete reflection of Lisa, not Christ. I'm actually working on a website for women of all faiths (although the site is Scripturally-based) in similar situations. If you, or anybody on this forum, are a Spirit-filled Christian, I ask of you to join with me in prayer that God sees this little endeavor through, and maybe some peace for my husband too!! I'm thirty years old, it's time for some Fruit to be produced. And besides, God didn't reveal to me (by experience at that), just how dark satan's evil really is for nothing!
To address Cindy: I find it very difficult to separate Church and Government. I don't mean some pseudo-sanctimonious mind-controlling cult either. If my pastor started rambling on about blowing up abortion clinics, warning flags would be swing from the rafters. However, if my pastor started condoning candidates whose political ideology conflicts with Scripture, I'd get up and walk out. As a Christian, I understand that Church, Family, and Government should be consecrated to God alonenot the whhims of mortals bound to chains of their belly. As an American citizen I understand that the Supreme Court has wiped their back-ends with the Constitution, so much in fact, that just about any anti-Christ behavior is now a Constitutional Right. This out not be. There is no human on the face of this planet, nor Satan himself, that can convince me Our Forefathers intended for the massacre of the unborn or the raping and molesting of babes to be an inalienable God-given Right. The Churches should have stepped in years ago, and maybe American would not have been drenched in the blood of over 40 million children.
