Civil Rights Only A Black and LGBTIssue?



Not Just a Black or LGBT Issue



When Al Sharpton says Rand Paul can't talk about Civil Rights or a man can't talk or weigh in about abortion, stupid is rearing its' head big time.  It's like saying a non-Christian person can't say the word Christ engage in a discussion about the Bible, Israel, Abraham, a Non-Muslim can't research and discuss the Koran or that someone who hasn't been the victim of a crime can't discuss crime, crime and punishment, or pass laws in relation to crime.  That's all silly. Can a non-Christian understand the power of the Holy Spirit after fully accepting Christ, what that does in and to your life, or the Bible on the multiple spiritual levels that a person who has had that experience and has an ongoing relationship to Christ in the same way, and studied theology also?  No, of course not, but that doesn't mean we can't engage in discussion and debate.  That is true for all issues by all parties, even if we don't agree on all points, so long as we understand that we wont all agree on all aspects.  I can think the view point of the other person is idiotic, moronic, stupid and illogical, and that's fine, vice verse they can think the same about mine.  However, that doesn't mean we have to hate each other, stop each other's free speech or exercise thereof.  

Whites and all people at some point were persecuted to some extent.   Granted here in the US it is not as dire as what others experienced in the past, though at the rate of hate towards Christians and the accommodations being made to non-Christian groups to the detriment of Christian groups on an ongoing basis it is feeling more and more that way.  Let's hope it doesn't get to where Bibles are confiscated along with our guns, our free speech and full exercise thereof as regards our faith and the right to bear arms are completely taken away.  Persecution can come in many forms and one form is if the government or any group is trying to force any person or group to violate their heart felt and core religious beliefs.  So long as there is no physical violence, murder and destruction of public property, then the full exercise of the Bill of Rights must not be interfered with by anyone and in regards to anyone clergy or otherwise.  When Sharpton determines that Civil Rights is only what happened to blacks, the is wrong, or that standing up for traditional marriage and such is a violation of Civil Rights he is wrong.  Civil Rights violations are anything that interferes with a person's or group's right to fully exercise their Bill of Rights in and outside the home, so long as there is not murder, violence or destruction of property involved.  If the LGBT or any group tries to tell me or my ministry, a Christian ministry what to do, what to believe, how to operate, what benefits to provide, what to support in society, what to advocate or not advocate for, they have violated my Civil Right and need to be smacked hard upside the head to get their non-functioning brains functioning, PERIOD.

If I or anyone wishes to talk about Civil Rights, we will and to me that means I have the right to call sin, sin, abomination, abomination so on and so forth, and so suck it up world, suck it up.  That is my Civil Right, as it is to pray for sinners, and share the Gospel with them.

Shalom and Amen
