So, You Call Yourself a Christian

So, you call yourself a Christian? You read the bible, you put up Christmas lights, you pray, and you tell people on Facebook that you’re Christian. But, are you answering prayers? Are you carrying the cross for others? Are you preventing the slaughter of millions of innocent unborn babies? Are you doing anything to prevent World War III?
We are at a precipice, and beyond praying we need to answer prayers. Beyond wanting abortion to stop, we must stop it. Beyond hoping or praying that evil will not take us into World War III, we must prevent it. Christians? None of us are if we don’t use our power. I am not talking about violence, but intention, decisive action, and donning the cross for others.
Do you know how many people call themselves Christians just in America? Do you know how many Christians pay taxes that fund abortion and war? Do you know what would happen if all Christians stopped their funding of murder and war? It would come to a halt! Yes, you, me, and millions of Christians and those of other faiths within America and around the world could put a stop to the slaughter just by saying no.
No one even needs to pick up a sword at this moment, just stop facilitating the killing. The evil within our government may make a few examples, but that is where we all pick up the cross and carry it together. They cannot stop millions of cross bearers as they do not have the manpower nor the will to do so. We the people have that power, but we must stand up as one to wield it.
“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.”
Edmund Burke
Beyond the millions of unborn children murdered by a government that both allows and funds that slaughter, we face the possibility of total annihilation of all people. Those of evil can accomplish that with the tools they have and from all people allowing it to happen. Some of you may want to justify inaction by quoting scripture, but allowing the end of days is to be complicit in the end of days. God did not create this problem, we did and by God, we can fix it. Yes we can, but it will take being the answer to prayers. It will take walking Christ’s walk even though we are mere sinners. It will take listening to direction from God and it will take courage. If we are to ever be worthy, we must be worthy. If we allow ourselves to be slaughtered with merely a bleat, we will reap what we have allowed.
Once upon a time there was a family who raised a few cows. This family had raised cows for many years before their government decided they wanted to tax such families. They quietly raised their cows, their chickens and their children for nearly a century in that very spot. Quiet enough they had been that most others never even knew they existed. Over time it was learned that this family and others like them lived freely and did not pay fees to do so. At that time all who lived within Rome’s territories were forced to pay Rome’s taxes and so they demanded these families pay to live, as they had once done freely. Some time later this quiet family decided to stand up against Roman and the extortion that had driven out all of the neighboring families. When Rome sent her soldiers to force this family to pay and take their livestock, this family instead of bowing down or running away, called for help. They called Christians, they called Mormons, they called cowboys, they called militia, they called Americans and they came. No this wasn’t Rome, this happened in America and Americans came with arms in one hand and bibles in the other. They stood up against those Romanesque soldiers and they drove them out, not with violence, but with numbers of people standing as one. I know this story, not because it was told to me, but because my son and I were there. We too heard this family’s prayers and we like thousands of others answered those prayers.
This is the power that Christians and all people have, but we must stand up and use that power or end up cowering like sheep facing a wolf. When we act within the realm of God, we have immense power. From you, I draw strength and courage and from me, you draw yours. From many we become invincible and can dictate our lives instead of having others dictate them to us. God is within us and all around us. We are the Kingdom of God and together we determine our lives. Together we can stop the murder of children. Together we can stop war. Together we can feed the hungry and together we can conquer evil.
We were given free will and with that will, we can either be strong or we will be weak. This choice God gave us and through our choice we will reap what we have sown. It is time to choose to be strong and to act as one.
Now is the time we can save humanity, our brothers, our sisters, our children, those we love and those we don’t. If there was ever a time to stand with God, it is now.
