The Christian Exodus

[DaBronx]

While visiting my grandfather I saw the special on ABC (NY) teased and was not able to catch the show so when I came in to work the next day I looked them up and this is what I found:

WELCOME TO THE CHRISTIAN EXODUS

Greenville Conference

ChristianExodus.org is moving thousands of Christians to South Carolina to reestablish constitutionally limited government founded upon Christian principles. This includes the return to South Carolina of all "powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States." 1 It is evident that the U.S. Constitution has been abandoned under our current federal system, and the efforts of Christian activism to restore our Godly republic have proven futile over the past three decades. The time has come for Christian Constitutionalists to protect our American principles in a State like South Carolina by interposing the State's sovereign authority retained under the 10th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.

THE PROBLEM

Christians have actively tried to return the United States to their moral foundations for more than 30 years. We now have a professing Christian president, a Republican Congress and a Republican Supreme Court. Yet consider this:

Abortion continues against the wishes of many States

Sodomite and lesbian "marriage" is now legal in Massachusetts (and coming soon to a neighborhood near you)

Children who pray in public schools are subject to prosecution

Our schools continue to teach the discredited theory of Darwinian evolution

The Bible is still not welcome in schools except under unconstitutional FEDERAL guidelines

The 10 Commandments remain banned from public display

Sodomy is now legal AND celebrated as "diversity" rather than condemned as perversion

Preaching Christianity will soon be outlawed as "hate speech"

Fathers are denied equal rights under law in cases of child custody

Our right to keep and bear arms continues to be INFRINGED

Private homes are now subject to arbitrary government seizure

Attempts at reform have proven futile. Future elections will not stop the above atrocities, but rather will lead us down an even more deadly path because both national parties routinely disobey the U.S. Constitution.

THE SOLUTION

So what can be done? ChristianExodus.org offers the opportunity to try a strategy not yet employed by Bible-believing Christians. Rather than spend resources in continued efforts to redirect the entire nation, we will redeem States one at a time. Millions of Christian conservatives are geographically spread out and diluted at the national level. Therefore, we must concentrate our numbers in a geographical region with a sovereign government we can influence through the electoral process.

ChristianExodus.org is orchestrating the move of thousands of Christians to reacquire our Constitutional rights by electing State and local officials who will interpose on behalf of the people and refuse to enforce illegal federal acts.

For more info go to their website christianexodus.org Very interesting...I was trying to think if there is anything about this in Revelation but have not had the chance...

Have any of you guys heard anything about this?

This is not the first attempt with this idea. The Free State Project has been trying it in NH for several years.

Wasn't SC the first to secede?

"If at first you don't secede, try and try again."

Sorry about the pun - I just couldn't resist.

What an absurd idea.

Abortion continues against the wishes of many States

Congress is in charge of creating the laws, the President is in charge of enforcing them. Subsequently, neither have control over abortion at the moment because the Supreme Court has ruled that abortion fits within the interpretation of the Constitution.

Sodomite and lesbian "marriage" is now legal in Massachusetts (and coming soon to a neighborhood near you)

It's legal in one state and against 13 state constitutions....all passed AFTER Massachusetts passed its law.

Children who pray in public schools are subject to prosecution

No they aren't! This is nothing more than hyperbole. If a child is punished for praying in public school all they have to do is contact an attorney and the situation will fix itself. It is not illegal for a child to pray in public school.

Our schools continue to teach the discredited theory of Darwinian evolution

This is not up to Congress or the President, this is a state issue. Such as in Kansas they are getting ready to allow the teaching of Intelligent Design and Darwinian evolution.

The Bible is still not welcome in schools except under unconstitutional FEDERAL guidelines

This outlines had to be created in response to the Supreme Courts ruling and the interpretation of the schools. These outlines actually protect prayer and bible study in school instead of regulating it.

The 10 Commandments remain banned from public display

That is a Supreme Court matter, not an issue of Congress or the President (the two governmental bodies that stand on trial in this post apparently).

Sodomy is now legal AND celebrated as "diversity" rather than condemned as perversion

That is a social ill, not legislation.

Preaching Christianity will soon be outlawed as "hate speech"

Hyperbole and scare tactics.

Fathers are denied equal rights under law in cases of child custody

Generally b ecause over 50% of the time the fathers are not fit to have custody rights.

Our right to keep and bear arms continues to be INFRINGED

How does this matter with the Bible?

Private homes are now subject to arbitrary government seizure

Again, Supreme Court

All this exodus movement is, is a politlca movement that ignores the basic tennets of scripture. THe Great Commission, or the two greatest Commandments, say nothing of keeping a "God-honoring goverment" ahead of us, or legislating Christian morality. It talks about reaching out to people...and secluding ourselves in one state removes us from the world. Fine, win the nation back but at what cost? The cost of ticking God off? I'd rather be persecuted than have a ticked of Lord and Savoir waiting for me in heaven.
