Yea I try to be an optimist, but frankly California takes all three of the liberal agenda's big points to the utmost extreme so much so that even the biggest optimist really just has to concede that where that state is going is not a good place. It becomes a very mature and very dark conversation about how to fix the problem that is California, perhaps a conversation not suited too well for this forum.
I'm from California, and what I see here more than anything else is people looking forward place to point at and say, "Oh look how evil it is there, I hope God destroys it," and other ungodly nonsense. What part of the Bible do some of you get your thinking from? I say pray for your tithers and sisters in such places, instead of showing how cool you can be by making worldly observations. We should be known by our love for one another, not by how much we can look like the Lost of the world.
I have been there numerous times, it's just like anywhere as far as people go, some good some bad, however when the politicians start passing laws that can or could lead to the banning of the Bible I think this should raise concern, and I say this with respect dont take it the wrong way please, but rather than finding a way to feel personally insulted or standing up for California in some way, I think we should really consider what is going on, no matter where it is. Is our aliengence with the politicians of any place or with the Most High?
WE all know that at the end of the age we will be ostracized, rejected, legislated against, imprisoned, sued and even killed for the truth....they of our own houses will be our enemy, they will sell us out and maybe even pull the trigger themselves...people need to wake up..there is no imminent return of Christ....it is post great trib and if Jesus does not come when he does...there will be NO FLESH left alive!
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]Isayah 59:15-21, "Yes, truth is suppressed; and he who departs from evil is accounted as mad. YHWH saw this, and it displeased Him that there was no justice. But He saw no man, and wondered that there was no intercessor. Therefore His own arm brought salvation for Him, and His own righteousness, it sustained Him. For He put on righteousness as a breastplate, with a helmet of salvation on His head; He put on the garments of vengeance for clothing, and He wrapped Himself with zeal like a tallit. According to their deeds, accordingly He will repay--fury to His adversaries, recompense to His enemies; to the islands; nations, He will repay recompense. So they will reverence the Name of YHWH from the west and His glory from the rising of the sun; when our enemies will come in like a flood, the Spirit of YHWH will lift up a standard against them; The Redeemer will depart from Zion for those of Yaaqob who repent of their sins! declares YHWH. As for Me, this is My covenant with them, says YHWH: My Spirit which is upon you, namely My Words which I have put in your mouth; they will not depart from your mouth, nor from the mouth of your seed, nor from the mouth of your seed's seed, says YHWH: from this time and forevermore."[/FONT]
I do not see your conclusion in this thread, I am not one to hope for destruction. I seek revival and pray for it . I do think that the Coming of the Lord is soon or imminent. And I do believe Christians should stand up to the decay of the times as salt does to prevent decaying. We are to speak the truth in love and not telling the truth is not showing love . Jesus said in the Gospel of John HE came to testify of the Truth. I think the some in the church today has embraced immorality on the false premise of “ love” . Love is an acceptance by God for sin today . “God is love”, the only Bib le thing they know. But what they really means is I want Gods love to endorse my sin.
GOd will never do that.

I for one will never accept, tolerate, or go along with that discusting, vulgar, and depraved wickedness. NEVER, under any circumstances, including death. A man named Charlie changed his name to Charlene. I was called rude for calling him Charlie and referring to him as 'he' instead of 'her'. Make a stand Christians! Do not make provisions for them to practice this wickedness!
"Blessed are you when they falsely accuse you and say all kinds of evil against you." Just because they label you rude does not mean you are. Its loving to tell the truth and stick up for it, not rude- which is the opposite of loving. "Am I to obey man rather than God?"

Caring about the lost is the love of Jesus. Always was; always will be. I saw no concern for these lost people in any post here, but rather many willing to say how dsgusting was their sin. Do you really think any Christian believes any sin is ok? Standing for the truth, great? Finding fault in the sinner is pointless-God already let us know that sin is sin. What are you doing to help the sinners-other than wishing destruction them, or pointing out the obvious? Pray for them, go out and tell them about Jesus, that they might be saved. How about that?
