This Is Why Many Raised In Christian Homes Later Turn From Christ

14 Dec 2021 Michael A

For failure to count the cost, the children of religious parents often do not turn out well, and they bring disgrace on Christianity. Familiar from their earliest years with the form and theory of the gospel, taught even from infancy to repeat the most common Bible verses, being used to being instructed in the gospel every week, or even to instruct others in Sunday school, they often grow up professing Christianity without knowing why or without ever having thought seriously about it. Then when the realities of grown-up life begin to press upon them, they often astound everyone by dropping all their Christian ways and plunging right into the world. Why? Because they had never thoroughly understood the sacrifices that Christianity involves….

Finding a Perfect Mate Starts With Oneself By Annie Holmquist – Epoch Times

14 Dec 2021 Michael A

“Contrary to the dominant message in this culture, one does not find the perfect partner and marriage. One makes a good match by constant effort and the steadfast will to persevere in the relationship. People waiting for perfect matches will find their idealism getting in the way of the practical work on self that is necessary to become the kind of person capable of being married to one other person for a lifetime.” In essence, those who want to marry and marry well will work on themselves first. They won’t waste time swiping left and right or hooking up with this one or that one to test if perfection is there….

Teaching Children to Recognize Propaganda – Epoch Times

14 Dec 2021 Michael A

…And in fact, they have been learning that propaganda for many years. Unfortunately, we looked away, convincing ourselves that such propaganda was only in big districts such as Los Angeles, or New York, or Chicago, not in our own local, Middle American neighborhoods. For years we kept our children in those schools, convincing ourselves they were safe, that their teachers and the curriculum they were studying were teaching them good things. That those good things would prepare them for living in the free world, able to embrace truth and recognize error immediately. Given the accelerated rate of deception in society, it now seems clear that schools indeed didn’t prepare children to recognize propaganda; instead, they were the ones that fed propaganda to children hook, line, and sinker.

Murder-for-Organs Evidence Leads Coalition Director to Launch Not-From-China Pledge – Epoch Times

Though black-market organ trafficking does happen outside of China, Hughes says that state-sanctioned forced organ harvesting is an atrocity unique to the Chinese regime. “Atrocities that aren’t addressed worsen,” she said. “While the carrying out of these horrendous acts is most certainly a crime against the individuals who are killed and their families, it’s also an attack on the sanctity of human life, and a crime against all of humanity. “It is our responsibility as global citizens to do all that we can to stop it. Not only to fulfill our human duty to help others, but also so we don’t head towards a future where forced organ harvesting becomes normalized and spreads to other regions. A situation where certain citizens, good people who are deemed enemies of the state, are held captive as a commodity—nothing more than a ‘crop’ of body parts to be harvested.” [Couldn’t these very words describe the atrocity of abortion and the big-business of Planned Parenthood selling baby body parts? These people are globalist, I’m guessing that they are also leftist and pro-abortion; if so, then that is quite the blatant double-standard!]

California Leaders Plan to Make State Abortion ‘Sanctuary’ if Roe v. Wade Overturned – Epoch Times

9 Dec 2021 Michael A

Top officials in California are backing a plan to make the state a safe haven for women seeking abortions if the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade.
Planned Parenthood and some 40 other groups released dozens of recommendations for policymakers to consider adopting, including increasing funding for pro-abortion organizations, which help women getting the procedure with gas money, child care, and other potential obstacles; repaying loans for healthcare workers who provide abortion; and opening up virtual counseling for women in other states who want to take abortion pills.

GOP Senators’ New Bill Would Block Biden Administration From Paying Illegal Immigrants – Epoch Times

2 Dec 2021 Michael A

President Joe Biden’s administration would be blocked from issuing settlement payments to illegal immigrants if a new bill introduced by top Republicans is passed by Congress. The legislation, titled the “Protect American Taxpayer Dollars from Illegal Immigration Act,” would prevent federal funds from being spent to pay illegal immigrants. Sens. Thom Tillis (R-N.C.), Tom Cotton (R-Ark.), John Cornyn (R-Texas) introduced the bill on Thursday with Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.). …“It would be unthinkable to pay damages to a burglar who broke into your home for the ‘psychological trauma’ they endured during the crime. And yet the Biden administration wants to reward migrants who illegally entered our country with up to $450,000 each for just that reason….

Loudoun County Moms Set Out to Protect Their Children; Now They’re Trying to Save America – Epoch Times

2 Dec 2021 Michael A

[Cooper, is a Black mother with a White husband] Fast forward to May, when Cooper had some quiet time while recovering from major surgery. It was then that she decided she needed to do something about what was being taught in her child’s school. “I see people fighting racism with more racism,” she said. “Critical race theory now is trying to take the children away from the parents to make them social justice warriors. CRT is Marxist ideology. And the last thing I want is my family to be breaking apart.” She used the time to write a speech protesting CRT at the next school board meeting. “CRT is racist. It is abusive. It discriminates against one’s color,” she told the Loudoun County school board on May 11. “Today, we don’t need your agreement. We want action and a backbone for what we asked for today: to ban CRT.” “You cannot tell me what is or is not racist. Look at me. I had to come down here today to tell you to your face that we are coming together. We are strong. This will not be the last greet and meet, respectfully,” Cooper said as she left the podium. The video of her speech went viral.
