Don't know if the forum mods. approve of this method but I think it's very important that everyone get on their Congressmen A.S.A.P. and voice your opinion after finding out more information on this topic. Joyce Meyer Ministries was kind enough to keep me informed and I'm passing it on for those who know the true impact this will have and how it will impact and affect our freedom to worship!

In an effort to bypass an up or down vote, the Senator Kennedy-sponsored Hate Crimes Bill was slipped in as an amendment to the Defense Authorization Bill (S. 1547). This amendment is expected to be considered, voted on, and passed within the next few days.

As Glen Lavy of the Alliance Defense Fund has documented, the Hate Crimes Bill is a "discriminatory measure that criminalizes thoughts, feelings and beliefs [and] has the potential of interfering with religious liberty and freedom of speech."

What YOU can do to help!

Contact your senators and urge them to oppose this amendment.

Go to our website, www.joycemeyer.org/america, click on the Elected Officials section and follow the directions to contact your officials. If you want to contact members of Congress by telephone, you may reach them through the Capitol Hill switchboard at (202) 224-3121.

i mentioned in another thread that the libs have now slipped this in with a military defense funding bill, in order to force bush into putting it through without a veto.

i don't care for joyce myer, but she's right on this one. and the same thing is being discussed through other christian media sources.

we should contact our senators, and we should also be deep in prayer.

Cajunboy::::: Thanks for the information LadyC. Also, I would think you would want to 'CARE" for everyone?? I think I understood what you were referencing, although I still can't understand why you would not care for someone who only wants to get God's message to the world and help a few thousand people acquire sheltering? But I'm sure you have your reasons. Just like you have your reasons for the comment you made on a topic of homosexuals, when you commented about "genetics" being involved in the Homosexual makeup! To each his/her own!

i have repeatedly, for years, stood firmly on these boards that homosexuality is NOT genetic. since you're the second person (or the same person twice?) to mention it (both times in threads that had nothing to do with it), i'll ask you the same thing i did the other poster. would you please provide me a link to the post in question? either i made a typo or my comments were misunderstood. if you want to know my position on homosexuality and genetics, there are about five bajillion posts in my history you can read through, many of them in the current thread on this forum, that will put your mind to rest.

I agree. I've even heard of siamese twins; one was homosexual and the other was straight. As disturbing as that may be, it definitely shows that homosexuality is not genetic.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Daniel: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 3

      Shalom everyone,

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
