Lying, What is it Really?

Growing up in a home where honesty was a fluid concept, as a born again Christian, I see the damaging results. Too often, lying is masked as...

Top Charlie Kirk Debates That SHOOK Campuses This Spring 2025 👀🔥


My heart has grieved so much this past week. May God protect Erika and her children, and heal their profound aching. Now to Him who is able to do exceeding abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power within us. 

They Said "Care" When They Meant "Murderous Help"

This map is nice for seeing where states stand after the overturning of Roe v Wade, something I never thought I'd witness. The title of the post is a riddle of sorts, solved when reading the description in the first link. 

Life Protection States

Here is a map showing the status of states in regard to the damaging and incorrect critical race theory.

Wal-Mart Supporting Unrestricted Abortion

How I look forward to the return of my King and High Priest!

Businesses getting political make me weary. Wal-Mart has decided to do what they can to spit in the face of Roe v. Wade being overturned. Will I shop there as much as before? I'll try not to. We do what we can with the resources God has given us, though in this world ruled by Satan, we cannot avoid all of the negative repercussions.

States Where Life is Protected

It is still surreal that Roe v. Wade has been overturned. For so many years, most of my life really, this was a desire and often a prayer. In my 10th grade Biology class I argued for why abortion was wrong for a debate topic. 

Now here we are with states being able to have their own laws!! Let us not be complacent; it is still something to thank God for! May He bless the states that are banning abortion and prosper them spiritually and fiscally.

Here is a current map showing the status:

One day I want to live in a state that does not allow the murder of babies. I want my taxes going to a state that has taken a stand for life, and that's where I want to be a blessing to a community. Let the states that kill the innocent sleep in the bed they are making.

Guilt by Association?

At what point, living in a sinful world, are we as Christians culpable in the sin of others? The covid shot has people suddenly aware that vaccinations can and often do get tested on cell lines from aborted fetuses. I wish this were not the case, for the covid shot or any product. 

Abortion is heinous. No real follower of Christ can endorse it. But is it endorsing a past sin to use a product tested on those lines? This is a personal issue to weigh out with the Lord.

Is it possible the argument of some of the newly enlightened people is convenient because of the outrage over being forced to do something against their will and better judgment? It is a blessing when we become aware of a new sin we should avoid or repent of, but my question is more about our sincerity. Are we under the impression that China values the unborn or do we buy products made there, thinking what they do isn't on our shoulders, even though they actively abort babies all the time? When am I, as a believer in Jesus Christ, culpable in the sins of others, bearing in mind this is a sin-stained world we live in? 


Parents who are choosing not to vaccinate your children-this is a weighty matter. The affluence of our society and the lack of children with serious diseases has surely made it easier to not vaccinate. We ought not judge other Christians who feel it is worse for them to not vaccinate when the option is there, though. 

Do I wish nothing in society had any connections to abortion? You bet. Did I do all I could to avoid vaccinations tested on fetal cell lines for my children? I tried. Do I believe I'm guilty before God for using a vaccine tested on fetal cell lines? No. Do I believe I'm guilty before God for using the multitude of products produced in wicked countries, by people who promote sin, by companies who hate God? No. Do I try to avoid what I can that doesn't honor God? Yes. Do I pray for the unborn and for God to help me avoid companies that are against Him and products? Not enough.

Let's be sure we are inconvenienced by our anti-abortion stance, if our religious exemption is based on the covid shot being tested on fetal cell lines (leaving J&J out of this discussion). This should probably lead to people researching and ceasing to use other items tested on fetal cell lines--and perhaps think of all of the bad companies producing things we use. It's wrong to play games just because the left lies and because they have no right to ask us to get the shot. They are overstepping our human right to make our own decisions about what we put into our bodies for no good reason. Everyone spreads covid, and if I want to risk a more serious reaction by not having the shot, why do they think they get the right to force me? I'm not a child, imbecile or animal. I'm an adult who can make my own decisions based on my own research and convictions. 


My point in this post is to point out we live in a wicked world and we're impacted by sin all the time, whether we like it or not. Too many people are zeroing in on this one thing as if they are wearing blinders, and in reality, we can't possibly avoid everything that is connected to something bad. We should not go around judging our brothers and sisters in Christ over the abortion aspect of medications or any of the other things like Amazon Alexa--knowing full well Amazon is not a morally upright company with what they endorse (hello banning books that warn about the danger of transgender).

You can find companies who are actively promoting anti God positions on this blog.

Satan Moves Men's Wicked Hearts

The judgment of God Almighty is in full force in America. Those who were moved by the Devil to vote for Joe Biden helped usher in this judgment in fuller force. 

Why does the government get to tell me what is best for me? The whole point of LIBERTY is that I get to decide what is right for me. America is supposed to be the land of the FREE. But the tyranny of Joe Biden and the entire left shows they do not want America to be as it has been. 

Do you, Liberal Democrat, realize you have been the tool of Satan? You think you are free, but you are either on God's side or  A.G.A.I.N.S.T. it. Only those in Christ are free.

  • God hates abortion. Voting for an abortion-minded President puts you on the opposite side of God. If you get that issue wrong, you are getting many other things wrong. Christians should always be on the side of not murdering innocent people.
  • God hates lying. 
  • God hates feet that run rapidly to evil. The lemmings in America who do not know how totalitarianism works are racing to the finish line on this one. They don't see what is happening and they eagerly follow those in charge, who they have put in the place of God. 

“There are  six things that the Lord hates, seven that are an abomination to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and  hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that make haste to run to evil, a false witness who  breathes out lies, and one who sows discord among brothers” (Proverbs 6:16-19, ESV).

The lies and distortions being told to the American public about covid-19 are deplorable. It is a nasty virus, but those who are vaccinated as well as those unvaccinated can spread it. 

Do you not see, oh deceived ones, that it is nonsensical to say, "We care about you so much we'll force you to take a vaccine in order to protect you, and if you don't take it you can't work, so you'll die." Everyone who hasn't taken the vaccine doesn't want to for one reason or another and that is our choice. We've weighed the risks and prefer to keep that vaccine out of our bodies for a reason. The wicked ones forcing us are being moved by evil forces. Those supporting them are blinded. Thousands of people have had the virus and have better immunity than the vaccine would give them, but that science is buried. The legacy media only reports what suits its liberal agenda. 

Why does the government get to tell me what is best for me? I should get to decide what is best for me.

Forcing people who are used to freedom slowly changes the mentality of that culture. People fight oppression less and less when the government exercises its tyranny over them. It is easier to comply. Those who do not understand sin and the ways of Satan cannot comprehend why men would want to be oppressing others... Aren't people loving and kind in their souls? 

Are you kidding me? "Wake up uneducated nation!! Do you know nothing of Stalin, Lenin, Hitler, Mussolini, Castro, Batista?" 

People recognize God Almighty on the throne and the One who has the right to govern the affairs of men, or they seek to put a human on the throne--themselves or some other inferior leader moved by pride and evil. 



The World Has Lost Its Mind

At some point you hope that people realize COVID is a virus and all of the ridiculous methods of trying to mitigate it spreading, fail. Approaching this new variant like the original virus is short-sighted and unwise. We've seen devastating economic, mental and emotional, spiritual, and educational fall out with how it was handled last year, and yet people want to lockdown, quarantine, mask up and contact trace afresh. States that were super locked down had the virus spread despite efforts (hello, Michigan). Here we are Aug 2021, and those who wanted the shot, have gotten it. About half of Americans fall into that category. The others have had the virus and are relying on their natural immunity, or they prefer to live life sans the vaccine (whether they can't take the shot for other health reasons or don't want it).

Florida has thrived, despite liberals who have flocked there to get away from the policies they voted in or supported in the states they left. The hypocrisy of liberals moving to Texas and Florida is sickening and frustrating. But that is another issue. The topic in this post is how long will the insanity of illogical decisions reign?

Vaccinated and unvaccinated people get and spread COVID. Is the answer for everyone to wear a mask? Wearing masks never flattened any curve, so it makes no sense. Forcing people to get vaccinated--this is a serious red flag in a land that has typically valued freedom, especially when the death rate is so low among the majority of people who contract COVID, AND vaccinated and unvaccinated get it and can spread it.  Is getting COVID really a major issue when the majority of people recover from it? When in the history of mankind has ZERO incidence of any virus been the benchmark? People get sick and people die. The response to COVID doesn't match with the rate of death. The response is destroying our culture and dividing families. It feels very much like the work of the devil. Satan comes to steal, kill and destroy. How much time and effective living has been stolen? How many relationships have died or people at their own despairing hands? How many jobs have been lost, businesses closed, and people's will to work destroyed due to all of the stimulus money handed out? Minimum wage is at an obscenely high rate. Businesses can't get enough workers. THIS IS NOT A NECESSARY EVIL OF COVID. It is the direct result of terrible, liberal leadership. I've heard it said, and we agree with it, that if you get abortion wrong, you get many other things wrong. Biden and Harris are the most pro-death leaders this Nation has ever seen. No genuine Christian could have voted for them. Their policies of destruction for America, the free America we've all known, are setting us up to be taken over as a nation. (Biden's reckless, short sighted, uncaring, irresponsible withdrawal from Afghanistan has destroyed our standing in the world as a trusted and powerful nation which can be relied on for protection from tyranny. It follows his idiotic approach to COVID nicely in setting the stage for us to be permanently at the mercy of stronger nations. Add to that CRT and it's infiltration into our pro trans military--we are doomed). 

So COVID spreads....how many people have it doesn't matter. They have it and most recover. One of the most inane statements I've heard is that someone was "battling COVID-----asymptomatically". BATTLING??!! Do we also no longer understand what it means to battle illness? In the history of the world a battle against illness involved pain, risk, medicine, a genuine struggle, and it implied a factor of TIME. So some people have long term issues after recovery. Does this warrant shutting down society, hindering the closeness of social interactions with friends and family, ruining businesses and living in fear? Fear is never of or from God, yet it is a regular tool from the left to control society. It is effective, especially for those that think mainstream media is unbiased news. 😳 

Christ followers have a responsibility to stand for truth. We must be gospel minded, loving, and involved with others. We are to be shrewd and discerning, and motivated by love for others, not love for ourselves. We must stand for truth. Buying into deception and lies does not help anyone draw close to God. It harms people and separates us, which makes us vulnerable to attack.

The Costs of Zero COVID

The Costs of Zero COVID are Too High from the Washington Examiner.

Here at ACL we ask: if you aren't going to live, what is the point of being alive? 

I just spoke to a nearly hysterical Senior Aviation Medical Examiner who is not seeing patients because of COVID. At. All. And he said the doctor he was referring to contracted the virus and is leaving medicine all together. Wow. Does a 99% survival rate warrant this? Why did you get into medicine in the first place--to help healthy people and have no personal risk? That is strange.

Life is full of risk. We don't jump out in front of moving traffic but we do.....ride in cars, fly, swim-even in in open water....take medications with warnings...ride bicycles...visit foreign lands and eat the food....sickness is a part of life and so is death. Be reasonably cautious; not unreasonably fearful. 



Did It Move You Closer to God?

Did how you vote move you closer to God or farther from Him? 

ACL's pastor asked that today, and it is a pregnant question. 

Our battle is against the spiritual forces of darkness. Are we with God or against Him?



Aborted Cell Lines and Medicine, Particularly Vaccines

Wretched brings up food for thought on this topic, but not as pointed. John MacArthur answers as a Christian leader on whether it is ethically ok for Christians to use a vaccine that involves aborted fetal cell lines.

You know how there are people who won't tell anyone who they voted for? I'm wondering about taking that stance on vaccinations, particularly the COVID vaccine.

I don't think one point made below negates the other, but you decide. Feel free to comment.

New Administration Won't Be Clear About New COVID Spending Bill Funding Abortions

The Federalist has the story

We can't rightly walk through this life oblivious to what we're supporting or not supporting since we represent Jesus Christ. We don't have to be lobbyists or even politically vocal, but we are responsible for what we do. God gives us money to spend in accordance with principles that glorify Him. It is very upsetting that we cannot control so much of where our dollars go. When we can control it, we should. 

It was well-known that President Biden and particularly, Kamala Harris, are avid abortion supporters. They oppose the Hyde Amendment and Mexico City Policy--two policies that did not come easy. Each was a huge way to protect the freedom of Americans with how their money is spent and how many abortions occur. With this new COVID spending bill, we see the games beginning in full force. 

God help us, the victims of abortion, and those who do the victimizing.  


What is a Political Conservative?

This article, with map of the U.S., does a decent job explaining what a political conservative believes. The only issue I wish it mentioned is protecting vulnerable humans from murder. That is the biggest point for me as a conservative.




Fetal Cell Lines--What is it All About?

Unfortunately at some point the issue of aborted fetuses comes up with most vaccination discussions. With the covid vaccine being new, there are a few fresh articles discussing this. 

This one from  Nebraska Medicine in Omaha is succinct. 

https://www.nebraskamed.com/COVID/you-asked-we-answered-do-the-covid-19-vaccines-contain-aborted-fetal-cells

This interview is a bit longer but also worth looking at:

https://www.lifesitenews.com/opinion/a-hill-worth-dying-on-expert-explains-how-aborted-baby-cells-taint-covid-vaccines

Understanding more about this:

https://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/2019/april-web-only/why-christians-refuse-measles-vaccinations-moral-grounds.html

Many in our nation are in healthcare fields that require vaccinations. These are tough issues. It is a personal decision each one of us has to make. Does using fetal lines equate fetal tissue being in the vaccination? Does the good that vaccines do get overlooked because of the tainted process by which the vaccine came into existence or was verified? When our own livelihood isn't impacted, we can more readily denounce any part in aborted fetuses in connection with vaccines. It is important, however, to realize that our fellow citizens may be in a much different predicament. May God have mercy on us as we work through these things. 

I hate that aborted fetuses have ever had any part in medicine. It is deplorable to me. But the fact the babies were not killed for medical reasons should be noted. It may not change a person's view, but is it the same thing to kill a baby for medical investigation vs. using the cells for science after the child was already killed? Maybe, maybe not. Some would say that the good which came from the aborted child is a blessing given the fact the innocent child's life was taken by its mother for her convenience. It is rather like donating your own organs should you die by murder rather than an accident. Does the murder get condoned because your organs have helped someone else live? Of course not. But it would be different to murder someone expressly for their cells and then try to make good out of it. With an innocent, aborted child, of course the best thing would have been for the baby to have had a proper burial, honoring its life and the fact it was created in the image of God. For an adult who is shot in cold blood to have their body for scientific advancements, it somehow seems better. Is it the fact the unborn child had no choice in the matter? What if the murdered adult didn't either? I'm against shooting people in cold blood. I'm also against abortion. But I do want to be consistent in my logic if possible.

This is a sin-wrought world. We should all be concerned with the judgment of God, but just what that looks like, as we've seen with mask compliance,  will vary from person to person. This is simply one argument in the corner of why the federal government should not mandate vaccinations.



Abortion and the Catholic Church part deux

More evidence the Catholic church should split.

https://thefederalist.com/2021/01/22/biden-harris-release-statement-celebrating-killing-babies-in-the-womb/

Only a lying fool could call Biden a devout Catholic. But no true Catholic could have voted for him, either. Catholics stand for the unborn. I disagree with any notion of being a good Catholic vs. a bad one. There are criteria for man-made religions and you can't be Catholic and pro-choice. For the record, voting for a baby killer is to have innocent blood on your own hands. Policies govern this nation, and political platforms are well defined before elections. Do you need to repent? God will forgive, but our actions do have consequences regardless.

My hope is that all Catholics will come to know Jesus Christ as their personal Savior. A relationship with Christ is nothing like following a man-designed religion. Knowing Christ is personal, life changing, and fills us with hope and purpose. It moves us from self-righteousness to finding our worth in God. It is humbling and brings peace to know God through being born-again. 



Family Foundation Action Center-How to Support Christian Policies in Government

Take Fast Legislative Action

The days ahead in America should not cause despair for Christians, rather what is being pushed by the left should ignite us to greater prayer and precise action. We cannot ignore the evil that President Biden and the Democrats are proposing. As representatives of Christ we must use the resources at our disposal to be a voice for the unborn and for the family as God designed. Our focus can't be to win or to prove someone else wrong. We may not be victorious this side of Heaven, but it is God who rewards and sees our good deeds. The Family Foundation tirelessly works to keep Christian conservatives abreast of the issues that matter. Use the link above to learn what proposed legislation is coming and what you can do. Just knowing is useless. Do something.



Inauguration Day 2021

The liberal Pope Francis is a weak, deceptive excuse for a Catholic. He assists the ushering in of wickedness and supports killing the unborn.

Look at what he is doing to pro-life bishops- Bishops who do not support the moral evils the Pope is hushing.

I used to take some comfort in the bumper sticker that reads "You Can't be Catholic and Pro-Choice". While I don't think most Catholics are born again, I always liked that they at least fought against the war on babies. I've seen first hand how some of today's Catholics are all too eager to have the blood of saline burned bodies of unborn infants on their hands. Some I was once close to helped usher in the horrendous anti-life Kamala Harris and Joe Biden, doing what I never thought I'd see. 

People who don't read from solid news sources like The Federalist or don't read the Bible so they know what God's priorities are, should not claim to know God and then vote. Judgment awaits--God hates hands that shed innocent blood, and it is too far of a jump to say having a rally is equivalent to the purposeful sucking out of an unborn babies brains so you can deliver its then perfect, murdered body. Democrats yearn to expand abortion rights. The new administration wants to roll back the Hyde Amendment and the Mexico City Policy, which will force taxpayers to fund the killing of the unborn again. 

These folks also long to take children out of the home as young as possible so they can be brainwashed by educational "professionals" and taught that gender is a fluid concept  (this is a direct denial of God's beautiful design for mankind, who is made in His image). Democrats are going to reap what they have sown, and may God protect those nearby from the collateral damage. It is a promise and principle set in place by the Creator of the universe. Traditional Catholics stand by values that promote life, religious liberty, and one's gender as given by God. We who represent God because of Christ will also reap what we have sown. That should motivate us to pray for those going to Hell unless their lives intersect with Jesus Christ, resulting in a relationship with Him. That should motivate us to speak the truth, in love. 


With this I bid you, 

Happy Inauguration Day 2021




I'm a Christian-- How Do I Vote?

Having a blog means having a chance to say things one doesn't often get a chance to say. 

With that I share that I don't vote for people; I don't support most candidates as people. I learned long before the embarrassment of our current President to stick to policies.  As a representative of Jesus Christ, I'm accountable to God for how I cast my vote. If I'm unsure of a so-called conservative, I'll trust God and make sure that I can answer to Him on how I vote. Of course I understand 3rd parties and what they do; of course I understand man's wisdom of 'vote for the better person' or 'vote against someone'. That doesn't always apply, however, because at the end of the day, I answer to God. It is He who puts people in power--and I can trust Him to deal with the results. I'll write someone in that I can stand before God and say I voted for in good conscience before I vote my party during an election where there is no clear choice for someone policy-wise. Man's wisdom doesn't trump my being accountable to God at the end of any day.

This all said, our last Presidential election left little room for a Christian to do anything surprising with their vote. We're dealing with very wicked policies from the Democratic party in America. To vote Democrat was to vote to kill the unborn--expanding policies to the max to give as much free reign as possible to tearing those babies apart. To vote Democrat was to support the government overstepping parental rights. This overstepping puts people with disabled children in a predicament if they don't do all the right paperwork as their child reaches 18 yrs old. It makes the government the parent and works to destroy the family as God designed. This overstepping means school officials can confidentially help your child decide they are going to ignore their God-ordained gender. To vote Democrat was to spit in the face of God. 

No genuine, right-thinking Christian could vote Democrat in today's climate. I won't put that on a 'welcome to my church' sign, but I'll put it out for Christians to read because sanctification demands we answer for how we think about the political issues that impact life and the family. I'm not helping a brother or sister in Christ if I pretend they can ignore how the teachings in government funded schools are an affront to God Almighty. No, this isn't an issue to talk to an unbeliever or baby Christian about, but what of the mature believer who wants to act like public schools are neutral spiritually? Realize the Democrats are the National Education Association and they do not like freedom in education for a reason. There is a dangerous agenda in government funded schools. For the majority of Christians, they are a terrible choice. In my state, our department of education is looking at instilling policies that put school officials in positions of great authority over children, irrespective of the parents. Very dangerous stuff. Parents are responsible for what they allow to influence the children God has entrusted to them.

Why am I saying any of this? Because I want to be clear that I have never come out as a person who endorses President Trump. He is not a godly man. He is not a polite man. He does not represent me or Christian behaviors. However, his policies support where I stand on some key issues, and I'm pleased with the direction he's tried to take America the last 4 yrs. You won't find me aligning myself with him through yard signs and bumper stickers. Do those things help elections? Sure, but I answer to God for who and what I hitch my wagon to. I don't want an unbeliever to shun talking to me because of how I'm going to vote. It isn't THAT important--to hinder my witnessing opportunities. But it IS important enough that I get out there and vote according to the principles that matter to me as a representative of Jesus Christ. Because I am a Christian, I'd be ashamed for anyone to think I was a major pro-Trump person. His actions do not glorify God, plain and simple. He acts reckless and rude and does not use wisdom or tact. But I sure will come forth clearly that I vote for protection of the unborn. I vote for parental rights. I vote for freedom with education. Let it be known I will never vote opposite of life if at all possible, no matter how it is packaged with a candidate. Wearing a mask during covid is not caring more about life than protecting the unborn. Only a deceived person would think that way. President Trump has stood by many conservative principles that should be a concern for Christians. He is not a true conservative, but sadly our nation is so far gone we will not vote in a truly good conservative leader. That said, if we are not using the venues God has given us to represent what is right, I expect we will have to give an account on that. May we use wisdom and not steer our kids wrong with their priorities due to our passion for politics, or lose credibility ourselves as lacking wisdom or discretion.





The Left Seeks Continually to Usher in Socialism

I awoke this morning to a thoughtful sounding man talk about how extreme protests from the right are accepted by society more as being political, but protests by the left are not tolerated. They are seen as a threat. He quietly said that socialist upheavals are seen in this manner also.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME? THERE IS NO WAY THIS MAN BELIEVES WHAT HE IS SAYING ON NATIONAL RADIO!!!!

No one from the right, or a conservative, has condoned the terrible acts yesterday at the Capitol. Every person interviewed stated how they disagreed with such measures, and said that violence is not the solution to our problems. Contrast that with the non-stop talking heads that consistently condoned the marxist BLM riots and protests. Leaders approved of those measures and acted as if those people had no other choice. Seriously? And it just happened to happen during the first global pandemic of our lifetimes. 

HOW CAN PEOPLE NOT SEE WHAT IS GOING ON WITH ALL OF THIS? 

It all brings to mind a relative of mine, who in recent months revealed his leftist political views, who thinks the right is socialist. Lord, help us. Clearly, today's new liberal doesn't read. There is no understanding of what socialism actually is, and those people are the ones who get used by that system to help bring others to power, while everyone else suffers. 

The spiritual blindness and mind control going on around us points to one thing only in my mind--Satanic oppression. There is no other explanation than God is allowing America to start feeling the effects of our wickedness throughout the last 48 years when we legalized abortion. We are starting to see what comes of legalizing a form of marriage that is an abomination to God. We are starting to see what comes of giving the government regular influence over the children God has entrusted to parents.

Communism and socialism are only able to take over a once-free nation when the people are afraid. These afraid people welcome in the 'safe' measures of their ever loving father  government, who clearly only wants what is best for them. 

Bowing at the altar of CNN, MSNBC and false religions is giving us just what we're about to get in this nation.

Come, Lord Jesus, Come.
