12/30/17 SURFACE VALUE CAN BE DECEIVING

Liberalism, Progressivism, Humanism, Naturalism, Secularism are not simply words, they are worldviews, philosophies, belief systems that are based on the false premise that the Holy Bible and the God of the Holy Bible are erroneous, fallacious, even fictitious. Therefore any belief system or plan of action that is based on Liberalism et al., is going to be disagreeable to Biblical truth, though the particulars of any subject may reflect Christian values or reasonable actions.

Bill Clinton brought the Freedom of Religion Act into our country, which has been helpful to Bible believers in America, on occasions. However, it was a bill passed in order to protect drug using religion among American Indians.

Remember, freedom of religion in America was meant to protect Christianity from Statism. It did not include Muslims or Mormons. Muslims and Mormons were not free to practice their religions in the USA. Nor would any other non Christian religion be permitted, which opposed traditional Christian beliefs and practices.

Obama Care was and is a nightmare of government intrusion, yet there are some situations where the provisions of that Act benefit needy and qualified people. This does not mean that government has the right or the duty to impose taxes or politically motivated behavior on the citizenry. Part of the problem of health care would have been solved if there had not be graft and collusion between the health industry and politicians. Face it, this world is not going to be governed correctly until the King comes back.

I actually know Liberals with some good ideas (I also know some conservatives with good ideas). The good ideas are usually well intentioned, based on basic morality and Christian values. However, Liberalism is a system that is diametrically opposed to Biblical Christianity and those who join forces with an evil system (even for good reasons) become the enemy of TRUTH. I will add that those who champion conservative beliefs, without a surrender to Jesus Christ, have made their "right" political position into a false god.

Therefore, my conservative and Liberal friends, who worship at the feet of a false god, whether Kennedy, Reagan, Clinton, Bush, Obama or Trump are misled and they are misleading other people. I agree that some good came during the administration of each of these leaders (some much more than others) and some bad came during the administration of each of these leaders (again, some much more than others). But none of them should have been our spiritual, moral, religious leaders. When they are wrong, we should call them out. When they do something good, we should praise God for the good, but we should not give whole hearted support to them or their party or platform.
