The Church is tired. Broken people come in with all kinds of issues...infidelity in marriage, rebellious kids, drug addiction, financial issues. Some of these issues are national issues that have a root in a politically charged origin. It's fantastic that there are so many drug rehabs around the country but I have found that some can be really expensive and others are really not that great. When I was a kid there wasn't a heroin epidemic, no meth, no pain killer addicts. There are ROOTS to these issues. Pastors, thank you if you reach out and help those struggling with addiction, but we need to put as much effort into stopping the inflow of drugs and tackle the very real and evil forces behind the people who are making millions off of your loved ones pain and even death.
Ask yourselves
- Where is heroin coming from?
Answer- 90% of the world's supply comes from Afghanistan grown as poppies. It just so happens that the opium business exploded after the US invaded Iraq and right now the Taliban of all people just banned the sale of it. Weird, huh? Maybe my pastor friends might want to ask God what he thinks about this and who is responsible.
It's then put on "mules" who are used by drug traffickers who abuse, take advantage of, and rape women and children as they illegally bring them over the Mexican border.
So, you have a choice-it's like putting a bucket under a leak in the roof. That leak has gotten bigger and bigger and there are buckets all over the country catching water. What if we fixed the leak? That might take getting involved in a "political issue," wouldn't it? It might take bringing in an expert to talk to your church about the Mexican drug cartel and why kids in rural America are addicted to heroin.
When it comes to pain killers, drug companies encouraged pill pushing doctors to make money. Where was the church?
Little children can now get a hold of a smart phone and see images that my generation never saw. If someone had an issue with pornography they had to seek it out in dirty back alley stores or get magazines in black covers mailed to them. Now little kids are getting addicted to porn.
Most churches aren't even touching this one, they pretend like it's none existent, probably because statistics show that a large number of pastors are addicted themselves.
There is a root to pornography as well. You can get on men and boys individually and there are even 9 month live in programs to deprogram grown men from porn addiction. We have a whole generation that is going to need these programs.
Why not just make internet porn illegal?
"you can't police the internet..." Really? I think FB, Twitter, and YouTube have proven you most certainly can. I know that there are certain things I can't say on this site, yet naked people are all over social media. It can be done if there was the force of will behind it.
There is a spiritual, demonic force behind censorship and a unified front of the spiritual leaders- media and politicians that call for our silence. That's why people have flocked to places like Gab, Clouthub (which has been banned from fb) telegram and other social media
Guess what? Christians, we have a more powerful force that we haven't tapped into yet. Our unification behind an issue, our vocalization over child grooming issues like what's going on at Disney is a spiritual and cultural pressure. It's not about boycotting but silencing abusers
Our founding fathers became a unified force of righteousness. They were pastors, preachers, or very committed men to their churches. They were Bible thumping radical Christians. How did they come together to create good government? How did they learn to write laws? They prayed and used the wisdom God had given them. They didn't shy away from being law makers, they ran towards it saying "I know God, I know how to craft laws that would bring liberty yet justice."
Without good laws, people are rapped, murdered, stolen from, they have no safety, it's the wild west. Someone has to put perimeters up to SECURE LIBERTY FOR ALL. Those people should be Christians, they should have a deep understanding of the law and nature of God. "Nature and Nature's God," to quote John Locke.
Our founding fathers didn't simply react to issues, they took them on at the root, and would most certainly have outlawed abortion, pornography, and illegal drug trafficking. They also would have enforced those laws with justice and mercy while giving criminals the opportunity to know their Savior.
"A total of 52 of our 55 founding fathers who had a role in producing the Constitution—most of whom also worked on the Bill of Rights—were committed members of either Orthodox or Evangelical Christian churches.

To understand their hearts and what they had in mind for America, let’s look at some of the things they said during this founding era. Let’s start with Patrick Henry. He said:
It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that this great nation was founded not by religionists but by Christians. Not on religions but on the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Our sixth president, John Quincy Adams, said in a speech given on the Fourth of July in 1837:
What is it that, next to the birthday of the Savior of the world (your most joyous and venerated festival,) returns on this day? Is it not that in the chain of human events the birthday of the nation is indissolubly linked with the birthday of the Savior? That it forms a leading event in the progress of the Gospel dispensation? Is it not that the Declaration of Independence first organized the social compact on the foundation of the Redeemer’s mission upon earth? That it laid the cornerstone of human government upon the first precepts of Christianity?
John Jay, the first chief justice of the Supreme Court and one of the three men most responsible for our Constitution said this:
Providence has given to our people the choice of their rulers. It is the duty, as well as the privilege and interest, of our Christian nation to select and prefer Christians for their rulers.
George Washington’s farewell address is yet another example of the intent of our founding fathers. He said this:
Of all dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports. In vain would that man claim the tribute of patriotism who should labor to subvert these great pillars….
