The Bible in the News

Every week a hundred stories, if not a thousand, illustrate the truth that the Bible is the most relevant and reliable book on the school’s library shelf.  Having been a preacher for almost 50 years, it is my purpose to pick a story each week that illuminates the impact the Bible has had, could have, or should have on “modern” mankind. 

The battle for homosexual rights won another victory in Arizona when Governor Brewer vetoed a bill that guaranteed the right of business owners to exercise their religious beliefs. The bill was an attempt to restore some lost religious freedoms.[i]

However, the homosexual rights advocates claimed it would give business owners the right to discriminate.[ii]  Besides using the age old technique of vilifying the enemy, the homosexual rights advocates threatened economic boycotts.[iii]  In addition, Eric Holder announced that the Justice Department will recognize that same-sex spouses should have the same legal rights as all other married couples.[iv]

What does the Bible have to say about homosexual rights?

The Olympic Games in Sochi, Russia, made headline news. Bob Costas made news when he described Russian Communism as a “pivotal experiment.”  PIVOTAL?  How about FAILED experiment!  How about DISASTROUS experiment!  This “experiment” cost around 50 million lives, plus millions sent to Siberia.[i] The Soviet Socialist experiment failed at every level to produce the “paradise” it had promised. So, great was the failure that a literary supporter wrote Animal Farm to ridicule the failures of the Russian experiment—the pigs are in control! The Russian “pivotal experiment” proved that Marxists are mad, Socialists are shams, and liberals are lunatic.

The Olympics at Sochi give a glimpse inside communism—where the water looks like urine and the bathrooms don’t work—and an elaborate fireworks display and closing ceremony conceal the “blessings of utopia.”  Every liberal should have to spend 10 years in a Russian gulag, 10 years in a Chinese slave shop, and 10 years in a Cuban hospital. Every American student should have to read Animal Farm and spend a semester studying the reality of communism.

Over the years many liberals have said that Jesus was a socialist/liberal and that the Bible teaches communism. Exactly, what does the Bible say about this “pivotal experiment” in history called socialism/communism/Marxism?

This week it is the State of the Dissed-Union Speech.  All of the “talking heads” have analyzed Obama’s speech and have summed it up in four words: BLAH…BLAH…BLAH…BLAH

An investigative reporter of this blog has a secret source within the White House and has obtained a copy of the 2015 State of the Union speech.

Without further ado, I am going to reveal the salient points and give some Biblical analysis.

Last week the story of the Catholic nuns—Little Sisters of the Poor—made headline news.[i]  The nuns are suing the Obama administration because the Obamascare law mandates that they, as employers, must offer their employees birth control, which violates their faith and conscience. These nuns will be forced to pay draconian fines if they refuse to comply with the law.[ii]

The Obamascare law is a clear illustration of the Bible truth about conscience versus government.
