A Higher Duty

By: editor-Jeff

"While we are zealously performing the duties of good citizens and soldiers, we certainly ought not to be inattentive to the higher duties of religion. To the distinguished character of Patriot, it should be our highest glory to add the more distinguished character of Christian." - George Washington

By: editor-Jeff

From Man's Slave to God's Free Bondman George Leile was born a slave on a plantation in Virginia around 1750. He would later belong to a Baptist deacon in Georgia.

Ordained May 20, 1775, Leile is recognized as the first ordained black Baptist pastor in Georgia. In Savannah, he founded the first “African Baptist” church in North America, which is still in existence today. After ...

Be Still

"I see no hope for a revival among God's people today. They are so enamored and so cluttered up with Hollywood and newspapers and magazines and parties and bowling alleys and camping trips and everything else. How in the world are they going to get still long enough to see anything from God?" - Lester Roloff

140 — May 19 – This Day in Baptist History

By: editor-Jeff

Uniformity, Conformity, and Dissent Baptists rejected statism The issue of church/state relationship (marriage) has its roots in the age-old struggle of Satan and the Caesars of this world system to “I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.” (Isa. 14:14). The Act of Uniformity (1662) required all ministers in England and Wales to conform to the Church of England, and in particular to use and subscribe to the Book of Common Prayer, which it decreed ...

Mindless pedestrians walk right into traffic while texting, talking on cell phones

By: editor-Jeff

by Ethan A. Huff, staff writer | NaturalNews (NaturalNews) The American people appear to be getting increasingly more unaware of their surroundings, and this is particularly evidenced in the number of pedestrians that are now getting injured or killed as a result of wandering into traffic. A CBS 2 New York report explains how one New Jersey town is actually now ticketing careless pedestrians who wander across streets and into traffic as a result of texting or talking on their cell phones. You have probably seen a few of them in your own town, those individuals who roam down sidewalks with their heads down as they peer at their smart phone screens. Many of these individuals approach intersections and crosswalks without even looking up, as they proceed to walk right out into traffic without so much as a glance upwards to see if a ...

Sen. Rand Paul on Obama: ‘What Version of the Bible Is He Reading?’

By: editor-Jeff

By CNSNews.com Staff (CNSNews.com) - Speaking Saturday night at an event sponsored by the Iowa Faith and Freedom Coalition, Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky expressed surprise that President Barack Obama would say that his support for same-sex marriage was rooted in the Bible. "What version of the Bible is he reading?" Paul said. "“The president recently weighed in on marriage," Paul told the crowd at the Point of Grace Church in Waukee, Iowa. "And, you know, he said his views were evolving on marriage. Call me cynical but I wasn’t sure that his views on marriage could get any gayer. Now it did kind of bother me, though, that he used the justification for it in a biblical reference. He said the biblical Golden Rule caused him to be for gay marriage. "And I'm like: What version of the Bible is he reading?" said Paul. ...

U.S. & U.K. Taxpayers Funding Forced Sterilization in India

By: editor-Jeff

Written by Alex Newman | The New American U.S. and British taxpayers are funding brutal forced sterilizations and a growing network of appalling “camps” in India through foreign-aid programs and even the World Bank, according to human rights activists and news reports. But as the scandal surrounding the controversial population-control campaign grows with an Indian Supreme Court investigation into the matter, governments are publicly distancing themselves from the program. Citing dubious United Nations theories about “climate change,” population-reduction fanatics — especially in the West — have been working fiendishly around the world for decades to scale back the number of humans. Their methods include everything from promoting abortion and contraception to developing sterilization programs targeting poor women in particular. And the barbarity is largely being bankrolled by taxpayers and elite donors in the U.S. and the United Kingdom. According to recent reports, the foreign-aid ...

Obama’s Homosexual America

By: editor-Jeff

President embraces liberal goal of ending marriage and societal stability By Jeffrey T. Kuhner | The Washington Times President Obama has made it official: He now supports same-sex marriage. It is his latest onslaught on traditional America. Mr. Obama has made history. He is our first commander in chief to openly embrace legalizing homosexual and lesbian unions. He has crossed a cultural watershed, paving the way for the eventual triumph of the homosexual agenda. Rather than being a victory for "civil rights" or "marital equality," Mr. Obama's decision puts America on the path to moral disintegration. We are one step closer to becoming like secular, post-Christian Europe. For years, Mr. Obama claimed his position was "evolving." Facing re-election and under growing pressure from liberal interest groups, especially the powerful homosexual lobby, he finally capitulated. His decision was not based on principle, but cynical politics. Mr. Obama ...
