Faith and Freedom go hand in hand. King-Preacher Solomon tells us in Ecclesiastes chapter 4 about government and privledged elitist oppression on the average citizen. We see this played out in Washington D.C., Taiwan, Russia, the Middle East and throughout the United States of America. Ecclesiastes 4:1 tells us "I saw the tears of the oppressed-and they have no comforter; power was on the side of their oppressors . . . (Ecclesiastes 4:1). Later in chapter 4, Preacher Solomon goes onto tell us, "Better a poor but wise youth than an old foolish king who no longer knows how to heed warnings" (Ecclesiastes 4:13). In the United States and elsewhere, we find activists, politicians and wealthy elitists who forgot where their independence comes from. I am confident that the United States, Iran, China and many other countries will be claimed or reclaimed with Christian ethic and values in time. In the interim, God's word reminds us that independence is given to all people to be free. This is essential to a healthy nation and a prerequisite for God's blessings. When we look at folks like Cortez out of New York proclaiming that we must abandon the law in effort to fulfill her view independence, we find mayhem and a violation of God's word and ways. When we find FBI director James Comey acting with situational ethics in leaking information and working against the President of the United States for his own personal/political reasons-thinking he is a hero, while breaking the law: we find independence and God's higher law being violated. When we look at Taiwan protests of the Chinese government taking away their independence, allowing China's government to extradite those who disagree with them politically, we find a violation of independence provided by God. Read Ecclesiastes chapter 4:13 for yourself and listen in to today's podcast -Independence is FROM God For All People.

Yesterday-as of this recording, July 1, 2019, Dr. Norman L. Geisler, friend, brother in Christ, personal mentor and advisor went to be with the Lord-he changed his address to his heavenly home in heaven. Dr. Geisler had a massive impact on me personally and inspired me to start ReasonForTruth.Org. I cut an unrehearsed short podcast to honor my good friend. I love him and I miss him. But, I know that I will see him again in eternity-and that I am grateful for. Please tune in to hear a few words from my heart-a simple tribute to my dear friend and brother in Christ, the late Norman L. Geisler

PARTII! Tune in to the second part of this series discussing the problem of exclusivity thinking WITHIN the church. I will state up front first that-Christianity IS EXCLUSIVE! Jesus said, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me"-JESUS (John 14:6). BUT, EXCLUSIVITY within the church-in the form of cliques, business deals or exclusive groups often cause harm within the body of Christ as well as ruins our witness to those outside of the church. Tune it today for Part2 of this two-part series on THE SIN of EXCLUSIVITY! (If you have no listed to Part I, download that part1 message!)
