Neighborhood Ministries

While people tend to become absorbed in the present, they fail to see the long term changes. When I started ministry in 1970, Christian values prevailed in this country. They were taught in the churches which led to them being taught in the schools and on the media, and enforced in our courts. Even most of those  who did not believe in God held them in theory, if not always in practice. People would tell you killing was wrong and the law applied to everyone equally. The courts ruled on the application of laws as written. The family was sacred and divorce was frowned on. Women were to be protected by keeping men out of their bathrooms and showers. While not always true, it was what people sought. Since then we have been in a struggle between the powers of life and the powers of death. Liberals have been pushing man-centered values. The churches have fallen silent allowing liberal teachings to infiltrate our schools and our media, and even our churches.  They teach that life is only valuable if it benefits you. They have pushed abortion, assisted suicide, and euthanasia (mercy-killing). They have used the courts to benefit themselves and their friends and threaten their opponents. They act like laws are guidelines to be ignored if they get in your way. They look down on marriage and push for easy divorce, and push their Gay agenda, teaching it to children, and teaching them that they can be any gender they want, encouraging them to destroy their bodies with sex altering drugs and surgery. While liberals call for the complete separation of church and State, they are seeking to destroy the church or at least prevent it from interfering with their plans to take control of the country. The separation of church and State was intended to prevent the government from interfering with the church in teaching Christian values but liberals are using the government to prevent the church from teaching values, so they can spread their own values.
