June is no longer Pride Month, it is now LIFE MONTH!

Every June, we will celebrate what the Lord has done in the overturning of Roe v. Wade, a death decree over America…and we are just getting started. Abortion is not a political issue, it is a spiritual issue.

No longer will we sit in silence while the world promotes June as Pride Month over our children, cities and Nation. We seek justice for babies’ lives! We believe adoption is the solution to abortion as we march for LIFE.

We will celebrate LIFE until we see our culture reformed to a pro-life culture. This is the hill we die on!

Text LIFE to 59090 to be a part of it.

The Word gives us Hope
Matthew 5:13-16
BSB
13 You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its savor, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled by men.
14 You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden.
15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a basket. Instead, they set it on a stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house.
16 In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
BSB
John 1:5
BSB
5 The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
BSB
Romans 13:11-12
BSB
11 And do this, understanding the occasion. The hour has come for you to wake up from your slumber, for our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed.
12 The night is nearly over; the day has drawn near. So let us lay aside the deeds of darkness and put on the armor of light.
BSB
1 John 2:7-8
BSB
7 Beloved, I am not writing to you a new commandment, but an old one, which you have had from the beginning. This commandment is the message you have heard.
8 Then again, I am also writing to you a new commandment, which is true in Him and also in you. For the darkness is fading and the true light is already shining.
BSB
History Gives us Hope
REMEMBER
-Social transformation and the early Church
-William Carey in India
-The Abolition of Slavery
-The Overturning of Roe
God's Promises to Give me Hope
REVIVAL AND REFORMATION
-The same God who promised me that I would serve in a revival that would touch the world promised me that there would be a gospel based moral and cultural revolution.
HE SHOWED ME THE BAD THAT WOULD COME AND THE PUSHBACK THAT WOULD FOLLOW

-First: gay activists came out of the closet;
-Second: they demanded their “rights”.
-Third: they demanded that everyone recognize those “rights”.
-Fourth: they want to strip away the rights of those who oppose them.
-Fifth: they want to put those who oppose their “rights” into the closet.
DIVERSITY

From here on, embracing diversity refers to embracing all kinds of sexual orientation, (homo)sexual expression, and gender identification but rejects every kind of religious or moral conviction that does not embrace these orientations, expressions, and identifications.
TOLERANCE

From here on, tolerance refers to the complete acceptance of GLBT lifestyles and ideology – in the family, in the work place, in education, in media, in religion – while at the same time refusing to tolerate any view that is contrary.
INCLUSION

From here on, inclusion refers to working with, supporting, sponsoring, and encouraging gay events, gay goals while at the same time systematically refusing to work with and excluding anyone who is not in harmony with these events and goals.
HATE

From here on, hate refers to any attitude, thought, or word that differs with the gay agenda, while gays are virtually exempt from the charge of hate speech – no matter how vile and incendiary the rhetoric – since they are always the (perceived) victims and never the victimizers
How does this work out in everyday Life?

-Children in elementary schools will be exposed to the rightness and complete normality of homosexuality, bisexuality, and transgender expression – witness highly-praised academic books such as The Queering of Elementary Education – and opposing views will be branded as dangerous and homophobic, to be silenced and excluded from the classroom.

Middle schools, high schools, and colleges will go out of their way to encourage both the celebration of homosexuality and deep solidarity with gay activism – witness The Annual Day of Silence in our schools in recognition of “the oppression and persecution” of LGBT people and the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Students’ Bill Of Educational Rights in our universities, not to mention Queer Study Programs and the celebration of “Gaypril.”

The federal and state governments will legalize same-sex marriages – as has already been done in Massachusetts, Connecticut, Vermont, and Iowa – along with, currently, ten countries worldwide, including Canada and Spain in the same week in 2005 – meaning that all heterosexuals must accept the legality of these marriages and that anyone refusing to do so could be prosecuted for discriminatory behavior.
I ALSO WROTE

The gay revolution will continue to overplay its hand. As those who were once bullied now bully others, this will produce an increasing backlash. And as gay activists win more and more battles in the courts and the society, that will actually work against them, as their goals will continue to become more and more extreme.
LAST YEAR

For many years I have been saying that LGBTQ+ activists will overplay their hand, resulting in a moral and cultural revolution in the opposite direction.The May 31 headline story on Drudge Report, “War on Pride,” replete with a “No” graphic to two men, says it all. The accompanying headlines read, “Anti-Target Rap Tops iTunes”; “Revolt on Chick-Fil-A”; “Bud Light Sales Down 30%”; “Gays Leaving Florida.”
