Virginia complaint form invites citizens to report church-going Christians

The Virginia Department of Public Health has issued a complaint form allowing anonymous accusations against any church or other establishment in which people are spotted not wearing face masks.

The draconian measure was put in place by the administration of liberal Democrat Governor Ralph Northam.  The drop-down menu on the form includes “religious services” as one of the selections. However, it pointedly does NOT include protests and street riots.

If Virginian citizens want to report their neighbors, they can choose between three options:

1) People not wearing cloth face coverings.

2) Number of people above the current required capacity.

3) People not following social distancing guidelines.

Plus, Liberty Counsel has taken up the lawsuit against the state of Virginia for Lighthouse Fellowship Church in Virginia for serving a summons on Pastor Kevin Wilson on the charge of holding a church service for 16 people in a sanctuary that could seat 290+.

Supreme Court overturns Louisiana pro-life law: Roberts is Judas

Chief Justice John Roberts is officially pro-abortion, maintaining a consistently pro-abortion stance. This became clear after the issuance of the High Court decision to overturn a Louisiana pro-life law requiring abortionists to have hospital-admitting privileges.

Roberts joins the ranks of many other Republican-appointed pro-abort Supreme Court Justices — including Justices Anthony Kennedy, Sandra Day O’Connor, David Souter, John Paul Stevens, Lewis Powell, Harry Blackmun, Warren Burgur, Potter Stewart, and William Brennan —  all of whom have put America among the most radically pro-abortion countries in the world since 1973.

Justice Clarence Thomas’s dissent included a blistering attack on Roe v. Wade, calling the decision to legalize abortion in America a farce, in which “This Court created the right to abortion based on an amorphous, unwritten right to privacy, which it grounded in the ‘legal fiction’ of substantive due process.”

May God’s people cry out with Psalm 10:15, 18. “Break the arm of the wicked and the evil man; Seek out his wickedness until You find none. … Do justice to the fatherless and the oppressed, that the man of the earth may oppress no more!”

64% of Americans uncomfortable returning to church

An American Enterprise Survey conducted around the first of June found that 64% of Americans were uncomfortable returning to church, and 56% of those whose churches had opened up for in-person services refused to go to church, reports the Religion News Service.

Among White Evangelical Protestants, only 37% were uncomfortable returning to church.

50% of corporate CEOS do not expect recovery until 2021

Business Roundtable’s Economic Outlook Survey of corporate CEOs found over 50% of corporate leaders do not expect a recovery until the end of 2021.

In addition, The International Monetary Fund is projecting a worldwide economic output drop of 5%, with an 8% drop for advance economies in 2020.  That’s the worst since the Great Depression.  The 2008 recession caused a world slippage in the Gross Domestic Product by 1.7%.

Also, the Felder Report notes that the Price-to-Earnings ratio is the highest in history, indicating that stocks are quite over priced. Now the ratio is about 28, compared to a 70-year average of 13.5.

Recovery on the DOW stalled out June 9th as the blue chips have dropped about 2,000 points since.

Deuteronomy 8:18-19 reminds us where wealth comes from.  “You shall remember the Lord your God, for it is He who gives you power to get wealth, that He may establish His covenant which He swore to your fathers, as it is this day.  Then it shall be, if you by any means forget the Lord your God, and follow other gods, and serve them and worship them, I testify against you this day that you shall surely perish.”

Black Christian police officer tells the truth on D.C. streets

Every now and then, the truth gets out on the streets of Washington DC.

A video that’s going viral right now shows what looks like a Caucasian, female “Black Lives Matter” protestor going after a Black Christian police officer — calling him a racist.

Listen to what an unidentified Black Christian police officer says as he points to sin as the root issue and Jesus as the only answer.

POLICE OFFICER: “America has a sin problem. The world has a sin problem, ma’am okay? Jesus said, ‘I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Me, okay? America and the world has a sin problem. You understand me? That’s where racism and hate and anger and violence come from.”

The police officer closed his exchange by exhorting the woman to just “Read the Bible. Read the Bible.”
