“President Trump signed his executive order “Promoting Free Speech and Religious Liberty.” It directs the Secretary of the Treasury to exercise discretion to avoid taking any adverse action against an individual, house of worship, or religious organization that speaks about moral or political issues from a religious perspective, including the revoking the 501c(3) status. According to President Trump the Executive Order removes the financial threat faced by tax-exempt churches from the IRS when pastor’s speak out on behalf of political candidates.” Source: Paul Rozenberg, Geneva Burns, Attorney’s At Law. Commentary: So why are Pastor’s still muted when it comes to the political candidates they support? I as a congregation member want to know where my Pastor stands on the issues? It is like Ben Shapiro says we have won the political war but have lost the cultural war! I think the Pastor’s have been muted for so long they are like the circus elephant who gets his leg chain removed yet still camps out around the anchor staked into the ground! Money as Jesus says is the root of all evil and that includes the ministry! Historically how did we get to the choke chain of the 501c? The Johnson Amendment done by former President Johnson a Democrat while he was a Senator back in the 1950’s from Texas crafted this law! He was running around with a woman in Texas who was not his wife and the Pastor’s got on him from their pulpits across Texas! Before the Johnson Amendment the pulpit’s across America were called the bully pulpits! So Johnson thought how can I shut these guys up so I can continue my affair? So he with the help of other Democrats crafted a law know as the 501c tax exempt status for churches and religious organization! So the new law was a sin to cover another sin! This is why I encourage Pastors to drop out of the 501c and come clean! If the only reason I give to my local church is to get a tax deduction on my income tax I am a phony! I give first because God commands it and I love his church and support the work to carry the Gospel around the world! No other reason! If the 501c were removed I would still give tithes and offering to my local church and other ministries! The most destructive part of this Johnson Amendment is gaging free speech or our first Amendment! I attribute the loss of our cultural war over decades of time to the Johnson Amendment! Hey it worked! Victory for the devil! If President Trump wins this November this Executive Order giving Pastor’s freedom of speech from the pulpit will continue for another four years! However we have three months until elections and if you as the Spiritual leader of your church do not exercise this freedom then more of our freedoms could be lost! Be bold! Be strong! The Lord thy God is with you! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com

Signs of Cultural Decline! Isaiah 5:20
Jesus said persecution will come to you if you are a follower of Christ! Many places in the world Christian martyrdom is common! However in America the assault is growing on Christian’s! Here are the steps that lead to persecution in any culture! What was once celebrated is now condemned! Some examples? Crosses, traditional marriage between a man and a woman! Bibles! Ten Commandments! American Flag! Patriotism! Legal immigration! Borders! Nationalism! Military service! Sodomy laws! Sunday worship! Free speech! Right to bare arms! Prayer in schools! Free press! Visual displays of Christ! Verbal expressions of Christ in the public places! Litigation and fines against those that support traditional values! Social media blocking of Christian content on Facebook, Google and other media forms! So if you condemn what the Bible has expressed as evil then you will not celebrate the condemned then you will be condemned by the culture politically, socially and judiciously! Pastor Robert Jeffress, Pathway to Victory.

Living on the Edge! 2017 A.D.
Those that assert that he was a mere man, begotten by Joseph….being ignorant of him who from the virgin Emmanuel…are deprived of his gift, which is eternal life. Not receiving the incorruptible Word, they remain in mortal flesh and debtors to death, not obtaining the antidote to life. Irenaeus of Lyons (130-202 A.D.), Early Church Father and Apologist. Comment: It is obvious whether the 2nd Century or the 21st Century that Christmas does bring out the best in us and the worst in people! People like then or now are living on the edge of eternity! It has been said people all die sooner than expected! Where is you expectation placed? In this world? I do not watch Fox News on a regular basis but last night at the evening meal we tuned in! They had the “Five”, on and the subject of Christmas was brought up! Being a conservative network I thought this would be interesting! I was in for surprise! One of the five said I do not believe the Christmas story! Another confirmed his belief! One of the ladies spoke up and said, “Well, it is good to know something about Christmas because it can help you in your career!” Really? Career? She should ask Bill O’reilly and others that have fallen before her! They are like mental patients looking out through the bars of their windows planning what they will do after retirement! The Christmas scrooge is alive and well! Christmas brings our in people their spiritual condition! A career is really what we will do for all eternity! What are we going to do forever? How you begin your eternal career depends on what you with Christ here while living here on earth! You can live to appease the political correct crowd but you will be corralled with them in the same pen! Should I bring up Hell during Christmas? Without Hell Christmas is meaningless! I thought I would mention it since I do not hear it from the American pulpits anymore? Jesus said if you deny me before men I will deny you before the Father! Sorry God does have a gender! If you do not believe the virgin birth then you will not believe anything about Christ! You then believe the lie there is no Heaven and no Hell. Believing one lie about God will cause you to promote other lies about God! Do not ignore the largest part of your eternity and sell out your birthright for some manna! A career separated from God for eternity is the worst Christmas gift you could ever acquire! Receive His gift of eternal life and change your destiny! Your destiny is your choice but do not be deceived by Satan to believe a lie about God! Merry Christmas! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
Columbus & Cannibals! Ezekiel 5:7-11
Sunday November 4, 1492 “He understood that far from them, there were one eyed men, and others, with snouts like dogs, who ate men, and as soon as one was taken they cut their throats and drank their blood and cut off their genitals! The Admiral decided to return to the ship to wait for the two men whom he had sent out and to decide whether to leave and seek those lands.” Comment: We know from our Bible that cannibalism is a curse for sin! Historically cannibal is a name used to describe a set of Caribbean Islands (The Carib Tribe), who waged war on the Spanish Armada. The closest thing to cannibalism today in America is abortion! Christians oppose it here however politically they have not been able to eradicate it and our tax money funds this sacrifice of children! Pray for America! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
Women on American Currency?
This is the latest push to give an image of equality. Why is there no woman image on American currency? One opinion is that they spend the money so fast you could never find any money to stamp an image on! Another thought is we simply have not had a woman president yet. If Hillary Clinton should become president we need to place her on our currency according to her value! Her image should be placed on our penny! Obama should go on our two dollar bill after he leaves office! I do not like to see our currency devalued but in the name of equality we could all end up in the poor house!
