Hillary Lies. The IRS lies. Obama lies. Brian Williams lies. Sharing only part of the truth is also lying. FOX News lies. Just gives us the Truth…not fair and balanced truth. Truth is not fair and balanced. Truth does not have two points of view. There are not two sides to the truth. Truth stands on its own. Truth does not require a round-table of pundits to explain it. Truth is stark. Truth clears the smoke of confusion. Truth is not an opinion. We have become a nation built on lies.

Is calling people names a sin? If so, then does that make Jesus a sinner? He called people “vipers, hypocrites, whited sepulchers, a child of hell, fools, serpents…” If Jesus was all about love, why did He use such harsh language when speaking to “sinners?” If Jesus “loves the sinner but hates the sin”, why is it that He casts the sinner into the lake of fire instead of merely the sin? Souls go to hell, not sin.

The institutional “church” is incapable of winning the cultural war. It is supposed to be a living organism, but it has become a business…a corporation. Void of vision, their focus has become money. Money drives every corporation…even the church. We have permitted political issues to divide us. Black Christians and white Christians should care about the same things. “Political” issues divide God’s people.

Facing the truth takes courage. Dealing with the truth demands courage. But ignoring harsh reality is cowardly. As I often say, “Silence isn’t golden, it’s yellow.” As any “therapist” will tell you, the first step to healing is admitting the truth about your condition. America is in a mess because we will not admit the obvious.

George Washington said, “Government is not reason, nor eloquence. It is force. And like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearsome master.” The IRS has ruined Dr. Kent Hovind’s life. It is a sad time in America when we are in fear of our government. You need look no further than what Lois Lerner did with the hammer of the IRS. We are all just one audit away from destruction.

America was once known as “the land of the free and the home of the brave”. Today, we are neither. Oh for the good old days when men were brave and America was free. Has there ever been a time in American history when moral leadership was so lacking?

From November through February, we seem to move from one celebration to another. Thanksgiving to Christmas…New Year’s Day…MLK…Super Bowl Sunday…Valentine’s Day…Presidents’ Day…there always seems to be something to commemorate. But it is the “memorial” that is stuck right in the middle of them that should gain most of our attention. Sadly, it is a brief moment in time that passes without much fanfare. January 22, 1973, is the REAL ‘Day That Will Live In Infamy’.

While America was turned upside down the past few months over the police-involved killings of Michael Brown and Eric Garner, the “black-leadership”, with the help of their puppets in the press, failed to mention that our inner cities have become war zones for young black men where, according to Rudy Guliani, 93% of all homicides are committed by blacks upon other blacks. Wanna know the truth? To those who scream “race” the loudest, black lives don’t really matter.

This is the way the American political system works. Democrats/liberals are the counterweight to Republicans/conservatives. The constant teetering gives the impression of movement, but the status quo rarely changes. This has never been more evident than what has occurred in Congress since Obama was ‘handed his hat’ in the mid-term elections; except nothing has really changed. The teeter has tottered to Republican control of the Congress, yet the policies that Obama has pushed forward still remain in place.

Eric Garner was not strangled. In fact, the coroner did not list suffocation as the cause of death. You cannot scream when you cannot breathe. So on Monday night LeBron James of the Cleveland Cavaliers showed up for pre-game warm-ups against Brooklyn wearing a shirt that read I CAN’T BREATHE!!
