ACLU May Not Exclude Veterans Association from Mt. Soledad Memorial Lawsuit
Posted by The Congressional Prayer Caucus | October 31, 2012

A federal judge in California ruled that the Mt. Soledad Memorial Association (MSMA) may not be excluded from the long-pending litigation over the Mt. Soledad Veterans Memorial in San Diego.  MSMA constructed and maintains the memorial, yet reports emerged this summer that the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the ACLU were negotiating a compromise to end the legal battle over the monument—without allowing MSMA to participate in the settlement negotiations.  The MSMA filed a motion to intervene and the judge last week granted the request, allowing the MSMA to continue as a party in the case.

In January of 2011 a three-judge panel of the Ninth Circuit held that the cross’s presence on federal land was unconstitutional.  Then in June of 2012, the Supreme Court announced that it would not review the decision; however, Justice Alito issued a statement saying the appeal to the Supreme Court may have been premature.  He indicated that the Court might reconsider the case after a final order on the memorial’s fate is issued by the federal district court.

An attorney for the Liberty Institute, the religious liberty law firm representing MSMA, responded to the judge’s recent decision saying “Through the years, the Association has tirelessly fought to preserve this longstanding memorial.  We look forward to continuing to defend and work alongside the other parties to achieve a resolution that will preserve this memorial cross and continue to honor the selfless sacrifice and service of our nation’s veterans.”  

Members of the Prayer Caucus previously joined the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ) in submitting an amicus curiae brief to the Supreme Court, defending the presence of a cross at the memorial.  The veterans association’s continued participation in the case will ensure that the voices of those who sacrificed so much for our country continue to be represented.

    God will bless the Association that has tirelessly fought to preserve this longstanding memorial.the same as He is going to bless Us, our Families and our United States of America just as soon as our Man OF GOD gets into office. Maybe our Man OF GOD ought to follow in the footsteps of Gov. Chris Christy. Lets focus on our "Monsterous STORM" that GOD sent our way to CREATE JOBS for a moment. Five days before the ELECTION and both parties are SPENDING HOW MUCH MONEY ON TELEVISION AD'S to smear each others names on our television sets instead of taking their DIRTY MONEY and donating it to the HURRICAN RELIEF RELIEF PROGRAM? Are you two witnesses worried more about a Politican Election than helping these people who are hurting so badly? You both had plenty of time to campaign. Gov. CHRIST--IE said all the right things. I am not worried about NO DAMN POLITICAL ELECTION--I HAVE A JOB TO DO--I HAVE TO TAKE CARE OF MY PEOPLE. All of a sudden this man PART that he was playing in this election didn't matter any longer--THE PEOPLE MATTERED. That is the way it should be!! Now here IS A MAN OF GOD. This man put the love of GOD before anything else. He is doing the WORKS OF GOD while our canidates are WASTEING all the money they can get on TELEVISION ADS so they can WIN A ELECTION. GOD knows who is going to WIN this election already so why don't the WINNER just take his DIRTY money that he is using for his NAME SMEARING CAMPAIGNS and DONATE IT TO HELP THE PEOPLE WHO ARE HURTING from this "MONSTEROUS STORM" instead. Don't you think GOD knows what He is doing? Revelations 11: 18-19 Gods REIGN is comming people--when is HE going to REIGN in your lives. Don't let the election reign in your life. I can see GOD REIGNING in CHRIST--IES life --CAN'T YOU ALL????? Now look and see who stood up and took the LEAD ROLE MODEL--CHRIS CHRIST--IE!! God knows what He is doing!

    One day to go before our GLORIOUS ELECTION people. Isn't it exciting to watch the Bible unfold right before your eyes? GODS REIGN IS COMMING ISN'T IT? Do you all see HIS REIGN yet? Hurting People are turning to HIM for help--they are not turning to our government or to our president who was elected to rule over the WAYS of our country for four years. They are turning to the RULER OVER OUR LIVES and NATURE to help us--- Is it starting to become clear--are the clouds starting to be rolled back like a scroll? Why I even see the REIGN BOW beginning to shape and form. Is it becomming visible yet? People are bowing at the GOLDEN ALTER--GODS GOLDEN ALTER--they are going to the THRONE OF GOD for help--churches are filling up people. Do you see GOD's SPIRIT turning people TOWARDS HIM. People who have not prayed for years--are now begging HIM for all this PAIN AND AGONY TO stop. When we go to the THRONE of God, we are not going there with GUILE in our mouths--we are going there to pray or BEG for His mercy, forgiveness and help. The Book of Revelations doesn't lie--its telling us what is GOING TO HAPPEN before it ever happens. Rev.14-5 "And in their mouth was found no GUILE: for they are without fault BEFORE THE THRONE OF GOD. Prayers are going up to the THRONE OF GOD--THE GOLDEN ALTER that Revelations is referring to. Now lets see are the HARPS in place for this MARRIAGE SUPPER? Praise God--Now I am looking for THE STORM OF HAIL!! Hail Be to OUR KING--GOD--the Creator of all things. We need to ask Almighty God to forgive us for TURNING OUR BACKS ON HIM. Father forgive Us for we knew NOT what we were doing. Amen. May God bless you, your family, and May GOD BLESS AMERICA!!

    Well my choice, as to who I wanted to be President of the United States of America, did not win. Of course I mixed a Human event into Gods Spiritual event and that is where I failed in understanding. It is so hard to keep everything seperated while trying to understand what we are reading in the Bible. So now we have to sit down and look at the human things that is GOING TO HAPPEN now that we have a President that supports SAME SEX MARRIAGE, and PLANNED PARENTHOOD. We must divide state ISSUES from Federal ISSUES. A nation divided can not stand. So Christians now is the time to get out there and YOU start walking the streets. Lets go back to the WAY it was Christians--Go door to door like our Presidents People did who wanted to WIN so badly. This is one of the CANDLESTICKS in the Book of Revelations. Let me light this candle so we can SHED a little LIGHT on this situatio--Pres. Obama had how many more people in the BATTLE STATES walking the streets going door to door asking people to support them---Over 100 offices set up--Gov Romeny had only 40. Isn't this shinning any light? We are in a SPIRITUAL WARFARE--the DEAD IN CHRIST have to start walking the streets! Now is the time for the HARVEST and the time for the SICKLE. Don't stop now because we didn't win the election. Our fight is not a HUMAN FIGHT--it is a SPIRITUAL FIGHT. Now let us get ready and prepare ourselves for what is going to happen within the next 48 days to our Religious Liberty. Let us prepare for the Armageddon--the Spiritual Warfare that the Atheists are about to attack us with. They are planning this very moment as I am. The election is OVER--stop thinking about this HUMAN EVENT and let us start focusing on our very SACRED SPIRITUAL EVENT that is about to take place--- The birth of JESUS---Christmas!! Now is the time to start going door to door asking people if THEY BELIEVE IN GOD? Ask them if they will TAKE A STAND FOR GOD? We need to get organized just like OBAMA 'S PEOPLE DID. Each and every state should have laws against BLASPHEMING THE NAME OF GOD!! This is the beginning. Once we get this LAW in place we will see NO MORE SIGNS saying There IS NO GOD. Get focused people--NOW IS THE TIME for us to join together as ONE BODY IN CHRIST. Revelations speaks of the SIGNS---Read the BOOK --It speaks of the SIGNS IN HEAVEN.Revelations says there are 2 CANDLESTICKS--Now let me light the other candlestick so I can shed some LIGHT OF UNDERSTANDING. Well there are all kinds of signs floating around in my MIND this very moment.I am paying attention to the SIGNS are you? Let us not forget--God told No--AH it was going to RAIN 40 days and forty nights. Now do you think that No--ah even thought about how long he would have to STAY in the ark after the rain stopped. Did he collect enough food to feed every single animal for these 40 days and forty nights PLUS a YEAR?? Come on people THINK!! We KNEW a STORM was comming did we think about the AFTER EFFECTS OF THE STORM? Are people prepared to go ONE YEAR without Gas-- Food-- heat-- or electricity?? NO!!! Now NO--AH had to gather food for every sort--kind or type of animal --elephants--cows--squirrels--monkeys--snakes--girraffs--LIONS--TIGERS--PANTHERS--BIRDS--BEARS Rhinorous's etc.etc.etc!!! (hey, I know I spelled some of these words wrong, but I don't have time to get everything right ) JUST THINK PEOPLE--ONE MAN had to build an ARK that would FLOAT FROM SCRATCH and PITCH IT within and without in 7 days--he had to gather all the different SORTS--KINDS or TYPES of food for all the animals to eat in order to keep them alive for 40 days and 40 nights--Then he had to GATHER ALL THE CLEAN and UNCLEAN ANIMALS--Are you all starting to see SOME the SIGNS OF IGNORANCE YET? It is HUMANLY IMPOSSIBLE for ONE MAN to do all this in 7 days but it IS POSSIBLE SPIRITUALLY. This is the DAY of JUDGMENT people--Could ONE MAN do all these things in 7 DAYS?? Why God told NO--AH to put ONE WINDOW in his ark. Now I ask you--wouldn't the SMELL ALONE KILL EVERYONE IN THE ARK???? THINK PEOPLE---THINK!! This is a SPIRITUAL STORY. God told No--AH to make the ark THREE STORIES!! I did that. The first story was builing the ark--the second STORY was gathering the FOOD for all the different sorts or kinds od animals--the third STORY was gathering ALL THE ANIMALS THAT WE HAVE ON OUR EARTH TODAY. Now I am putting the WINDOW OF UNDERSTANDING in the ARK. This book needs to go in every school so our children can recognize VEILED LANGUAGE when they see it. STAY FOCUSED PEOPLE--this is a SPIRITUAL BOOK--You can not mix spiritual things with human things if you want to understand this GREATEST BOOK ever written by the most HIGHLY EDUCATED MEN ON EARTH. We must stay SPIRITUALLY FOCUSED for we have a JOB to do RIGHT now. That job is to keep the NAME and THE SPIRIT OF GOD ALIVE in our country. Ask all people if they will stand up with US against the religious attacks that these secular atheist organizations are about to attack us with this Christmas Season? We now need to form our battleground stations in each and every state. We need people of all faith to join with me in forming THE LORDSARMME.

    I hope to heck my tax dollars are not going to further this ridculous display of self righteous, back slapping religious lunacy. You people need to get a grip on reality, or seek a medical help. You know, they have pills for this sort of thing. So let's see if you also believe in freedom of speech, by how fast you delete my sincere horror at your demented behavior.
  • Linda Templet commented on 11/11/2012
    No Mary--your tax dollars is not going to further self righteousness--it is going to further FREE CONDOMS--SEX ON TELEVISION--AND TO HELP KILL BABIES!! How is that for getting a GRIP ON REALITY?? Is there a GOD Mary--REALITY IS--YOU CAN'T PROVE THAT! Guess what? NEITHER CAN I. But if there IS AN ALMIGHTY GOD and IF THERE IS A HEAVEN--I am not going to stand before GOD ON JUDGMENT DAY and have these babies BLOOD ON MY HANDS! This is an UNMORAL ACT KILLNG BABIES and you have the NERVE to refer to religious people as being LUNATICS?? These INNOCENT LITTLE LAMBS DID NOTHING WRONG TO BE KILLED!!!! I am fighting for these little LAMBS that can't fight back!! Now you probably think I am a LUNATIC because I referred to a babie as a LAMB-- Maybe you better look the word up your dictionary--it means the INNOCENT ONE! INNOCENT babies are dying every day--ARE YOU TAKING A STAND AGAINST THIS UNRIGHTEOUS ACT?? Your TAX DOLLARS are paying for THIS!! Why aren't you STANDING UP AGAINST THIS??? Our government was NOT created, formed or made to INTERFER with our PERSONAL AFFAIRS. It wasn't made TO MAKE LAWS TO PROTECT MURDERERS. Maybe it is YOU who NEEDS TO GET A GRIP ON REALITY!! I am PROUD of being SELF RIGHTEOUS--Righteous is morally upright. Wow Mary, you got a problem with morally upright people? Well that is okay because I have a BIG PROBLEM with UNMORAL PEOPLE DESTROYING THEGODLY IMAGE OF OUR COUNTRY and ALL THE UNMORAL ELECTED LEADERS IN OUR GOVERNMENT. You say "you people need TO GET A GRIP ON REALITY"! You are absolutely right--REALITY IS-- people LIKE YOU are trying to take our RELIGIOUS FREEDOM AND LIBERTY AWAY LITTLE BY LITTLE. Guess what?? It AIN'T GOING TO HAPPEN because I AM A SOLDIER FOR THE LORD!! Today is VETERANS DAY. These SOLDIERS FOUGHT AND DIED FOR YOU so YOU COULD HAVE RIGHTEOUS FREEDOM AND LIBERTY. These SOLDIERS FIGHT FOR MORALITY--they don't fight for the FREEDOM AND LIBERTY OF WICKEDNESS! Only a LUNATIC fights for that. Get ready Mary because GODS REIGN IS COMMING and I am going to HELP BRING THE FLOOD!!!
  • Linda Templet commented on 11/11/2012
    If this doesn't get you so called CHRISTIANS FIRED UP--NOTHING WILL. Go to FFRF's website and read THEIR LETTER to THE PRESIDENT!! NOW IS THE TIME for the LORDSARMME to WRITE THEIR LETTERS to the Office of the President. Will this PRESIDENT now say--Theres NO ROOM IN THE INN FOR GOD? Will he CHOOSE to not say "So HELP ME GOD"???
  • Linda Templet commented on 11/12/2012
    A spiritual event is about to take place that is going to AFFECT our nature and our emotions. Some people are going to be very emotionally upset during our Presidents SWEARING IN. FFRF wants the President to put his hand on THE CONSTITUTION instead of the HOLY BIBLE and they are PUSHING for him or trying to persuade hit to OMIT--SO HELP ME GOD from his OATH OF OFFICE. Will he bow down to the atheists OR will he acknowledge and show GLORY to GOD by asking for HIS HELP? Now read Revelations 16-9 --Will We, the people of FAITH or the people OF GOD, be SCORCHED WITH GREAT HEAT or will the atheists who believe THERE IS NO GOD be scorched with GREAT HEAT? GREAT HEAT is an Abstract Concept--the CONCRETE WORD is GREAT ANGER! These people are looking for GREAT ANGER to arise in our country. So you people OF FAITH, get out your pen and paper and start writting your letters to the President so we can FLOOD his office with GODS REIGN! Blow your TRUMP--ETS NOW and play your HARPS loud and clear. GODS REIGN IS COMMING! Don't worry people--I'll get medical help later cause like Mary say's I AM A LUNATIC!! Praise God from whom ALL BLESSING FLOW!AMEN!
  • Linda Templet commented on 11/16/2012
    Let us pray--Today Obama will bring together the four top leaders of Congress for the first time since the Nov. 6 election. McConnell, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, House of Representatives Speaker John Boehner and House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi are scheduled to talk with him for about an hour at the White House. Revelations does speak of the FOUR WINDS--Each of these people are a pack of WIND. They are going to be blowing a lot of hot and cold air out of their mouths. Now why is HE doing this? That answer is because the SCRIPTURES in the Book of Revelations and the Scriptures in the FOUR Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John must be fulfilled. The Bible does say, "And it SHALL come to pass". Now the birth of JESUS was on this WISE. Do we have any wise people out there? All I got to say is that YOU ALL better WISE UP because CHOICE is being taken away from us little by little and FORCE is beginning to TAKE OVER OUR COUNTRY and our RELIGION! Now READ LUKE Chapter 2--It is about BEING TAXED!! Now a certain group of people ARE GOING TO BE TAXED BY OUR GOVERNMENT to pay for the poor management of money. They are going to be FORCED to CONTRIBUTE THEIR MONEY to our government whether they want to or not. Choice is going to be taken away and FORCE is entering in. Hey this is JUST LIKE RELIGION. The ATHEIST GROUPS are trying to FORCE the POWER OF RELIGION out of WAYS OF GOVERNING so the SECULAR WAYS can take control of the POWER OF GOVERNING. The POWER of the FORCES of government is going to MAKE THEM contribute to THEIR CAUSE whether they want to our not. They are not going to have a CHOICE--the government is going to FORCE THEM TO CONTRIBUTE. This kind of governing is a MILITANT GOVERNING. Our Constitution was not thought up BY THE PEOPLE so that the people governing our nation could have MILITANT CONTROL over them. It was made up to KEEP MILITANT CONTROL OUT OF GOVERNMENT! Where are THE WISE MEN?? People did not like being FORCED to contribute their money to the Catholic Church so they went to Thomas Jefferson and Thomas Jefferson put a WALL of Separation UP. The Separation Wall STOPPED all people from being FEDERALLY TAXED for the SUPPORT AND UPKEEP OF RELIGION. The Constitution does not DELEGATE any RIGHT OR JURISDICTION TO ANY PERSON in our FEDERAL OR OUR STATES WAYS OF GOVERNING to have control over RELIGION. Religious ISSUES fall under CIVIL AND PERSONAL JURISDICTION. Federal governing has no POWER, AUTHORITY OR JURISDICTION over religious ISSUES unless the religious issue is breaking the governing LAWS. By CHOICE--Religion governs the WAYS we live our lives--BY FORCE the laws keep religious RIGHTS NOT WRONG safe and secure.The ones who GOVERN US have NOPOWER TO RULE OR FORCE over conscience so OBAMACARE can not FORCE US TO ACCEPT HIS HEALTHCARE! GODS REIGN IS COMMING PEOPLE but the WISE MEN have to show up first!! Can we put up a WALL OF SEPARATION between MILITANT FORCE and FREEDOM?

    Revelations 15-4 "Who should not fear thee, O LORD, and glorify thy name? for THOU ONLY art holy: for ALL NATIONS shall come and worship before thee; for thy JUDGMENTS ARE MADE MANIFEST". I believe the TIME has come for RIGHTEOUS JUDGMENT to become MANISFESTED. Manifest means clearly apparent to the sight and understanding; obvious. 2. To be evidence of; PROVE. Now if you all would take the time to sit down and look at every singe States Constitutions you will see that each States constitution mentions the NAME of Almighty God OR references a HIGHER BEING than ourselves to govern us and our country. The evidence that PROVES this is there; all one has to do is read it. It is clearly apparent to the sight and understanding that ALMIGHTY GOD or the other references to a HIGHER BEING has WORTH to our country.The different sorts or kinds of religious SECTS is NOT mentioned. Only ONE name is ABOVE all other names and that name IS---ALMIGHTY GOD. This is the only HOLY OR RELIGIOUS NAME recognized in our OFFICIAL DOCUMENTS for OUR COUNTRY.So all of these States made a compact to join together as one BODY POLITIC known as The United States Of America, which would UNITE ALL STATES as ONE BODY OF PEOPLE with ONE MIND, One ESTABLISHED RELIGION as being Belief in ONE Almighty GOD and ONE PURPOSE. The Constitution of South Caroline in 1778 specifically states," The Christian Protestant Religion SHALL BE DEEMED, AND IS HEREBY CONSTITUTED AND declared to be, THE ESTABLISHED RELIGION FOR THIS STATE. Wow--what is this? Is this EVIDENCE--is it PROOF? Why did they ESTABLISH the CHRISTIAN PROTESTANT RELIGION for this STATE? That PURPOSE was to create, form and make a DIVINE PROVIDENCE according to THE KING JAMES AUTHORIZED VERSION OF THE BIBLE.. They had a VISION--They VISIONED the people's NATURE on earth TO BE LIKE THE THE NATURE OF THE PEOPLE LIVING IN HEAVEN. This was their VISION and they got this VISION from this ONE verse in the Bible.Jesus said pray this way--Our Father, which art in heaven, hallowed be THY NAME, thy kingdom come, thy WILL BE DONE AS IT IS IN HEAVEN.This is exactly what Jesus VISIONED earth to be like and THAT is what our forefathers VISIONED--no more fighting--no more tears--no more unhappyness--Nothing but PEACE ON EARTH and GOODWILL TOWARDS MEN!! What a VISION! RELIGION FOR ALL STATES IS BELIEF IN ALMIGHTY GOD. Now if our 1st Amendment of our UNITED States Constitution means--separation of church and state I'LL EAT MY HAT!!!We have the evidence and the proof that RELIGION--the BELIEF IN ALMIGHTY GOD--WAS ESTABLISHED to have FREE REIGN OVER our country. The intrepreters of our First Amendment have NOT intrepreted our First Amendment correctly.THIS PROVES IT!! If a STATE could deem, constitute, and DECLARE the Christian Protestant Religion to be the ESTABLISHED religion for their STATE--than there was no separation of church and state.GODS REIGN IS COMMING!! The South Carolina States Constitution dated March 19, 1778 makes it clearly apparent and obvious to me that our First Amendment means--Congress shall MAKE NO LAW RESPECTING AN ESTABLISHMENT OF RELIGION, OR--prohibit the FREE EXERCISE thereof; SEE that SEMICOLON after thereof?? The semicolon tells the story. The LIST OF ITEMS after that semicolon LISTS all things concerning the Christian Protestant religion--NOT personal rights. These two things, the South Carolinas States Constitution and our First Amendment join together--it is the BRIDE--a thread or loop that JOINS a pattern together. These are the RIGHTS to our ESTABLISHED PROTESTANT REIGION!!! What are we idiots? There ARE LAWS MADE for speech--for the press--for the assembly of people. Here is some more PROOF and EVIDENCE. There are NO LAWSmade up YET for RELIGIOUS SPEECH but there WILL BE if we continue down this PATH OF IGNORANCE!!! This spiritual WARFARE MUST BE STOPPED! We need to ACT NOW CONGRESS--NOT LATER--THIS IS THE YEAR OF THE BIBLE!!! There is NO separation of church and state--Jeffersons statement was about TAXES--thats all! GODS REIGN IS COMMING --Now bring it on CONGRESS--I want to REST from my LABORS!
  • Linda Templet commented on 11/28/2012
    Martin Luther King had a dream--I have a VISION. I can SEE things through the holy scriptures that others do not see at all. A vision is something that IS or something that has been seen.I am visiting the Church Of SAR--DIS again. I SAR--DIS while I was reading In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. And the EARTH was without FORM, and VOID; and DARKNESS was upon the FACE of the DEEP, and the SPIRIT OF God moved upon the FACE of the WATERS. And God said, LET THERE BE LIGHT, and there WAS LIGHT!! And God SAW THE LIGHT, that it was GOOD. And God DIVIDED the LIGHT from the darkness. And God called the LIGHT ---DAY and the darkness he called NIGHT. And the evening and the morning was the FIRST DAY. Now according to my Book of Wisdom; The King James Version of the Bible--God SAID, Let there be light and there was light. This sounds GREEK to me. Here is another verse that sounds GREEK to me. And the LORD God formed man OF THE DUST of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. Now the third story that sounds GREEK to me is --And out of the GROUND made the LORD GOD to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the TREE OF LIFE also in the midst of the garden, and the TREE OF KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD and EVIL.Doesn't this sound GREEK to you all? If you can't understand this sentence than you are in DARKNESS--you have no LIGHT OF UNDERSTANDING. Well how can we fully understand what we are READING in these VERSES if it is written in GREEK? Well all we got to do is do what God SAID--We have to DIVIDE the LIGHT from the DARKNESS in order to receive intelligence. Let us not forget--Paul says to RIGHTLY DIVIDE THE WORD OF GOD. Are you all RIGHTLY DIVIDING IN YOUR MINDS what you are reading? Where is this TREE OF LIFE? Well lets look at it from MY WINDOW OF UNDERSTANDING-- we all have FAMILY TREES. This is our TREES OF LIFE. Can you see the TREE now? We are still producing the branches to OUR FAMILY TREES OF LIFE. See--I just divided the LIGHT from the DARKNESS! Do you all see any DAYLIGHT yet? See I intrepreted this GREEK into English. This is why we have to get this highly intelligent book--THE KING JAMES VERSION of The Bible in every single ENGLISH CLASS in every school across America. It is so important to keep spiritual things seperated away from human things while trying to understand a spiritual book which creates, makes and forms SUPREME BEINGS. We must RIGHTLY DIVIDE WHAT WE ARE READING!! That is why we need this book taught in English Classes across America. We can not understand verses written in GREEK. We can only understand common English. Let us use King James VERSION of the Bible and let us look at The Bible at another POINT OF VIEW or VERSION.We need MORE ENGLISH LESSONS in order to understand these GREEK WORDS and GREEK PHRASES. We are advancing EDUCATION to a HIGHER LEVEL OF LEARNING and UNDERSTANDING by deeply studying this book. We must stay SPIRITUALLY FOCUSED. Now Paul says to RIGHTLY divide the WORD. Now how on earth can we rightly divide what this BOOK is saying? When one can RIGHTLY DIVIDE a WORD, one can get TRUE UNDERSTANDING and can truly COMPREHEND what one is reading. Once one comprehends what they are reading, their VISIONS which they SEE only in their HEADS goes away and EDUCATION than begins to take over ones MIND and EDUCATION than begins to do its WORK of helping people to get KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING. The LIGHT that Education takes away IGNORANCE or DARKNESS. Darkness is not knowing or not being able to see what a sentence is meaning.We MUST lay a firm foundation that everyone can agree on. That foundation is the TRUTH if we want to STOP this fight over Religion. We must bring all people together in agreement. The TRUTH IS THIS--Nobody on this earth can PROVE to ANYONE if there IS or there IS NOT a God! So let us all stop fighting over something that we can not prove.The ONE thing that we CAN PROVE is that the WORDS of God DOES create, form and make SUPREME BEINGS for our country. Truth is FACTS plus REALITY. So let us take this TRUTH which is a FACT that nobody on this earth can prove if there is or there is not a God and study REALITY. We will not be taking the WORDS of God out of our country--we will be PRESERVING the Words of God in all childrens MINDS. In other words, we will be doing exactly what the Bible tells us to do in the Book of Revelations--The Book does say, And they shall see His face, and His NAME shall be in their FOREHEADS. His NAME will be in every persons MINDS and everyone will say, " WELL GOD SAID....." Our Churches can be government approved educational schools for the advancement of SUPREME BEINGS. I wish I knew what the English term for" THERE'S MORE THAN ONE WAY TO SKIN A CAT" was. I understand this GREEK--do you? Gods reign is coming people! Maybe it will come through EDUCATION.

    And the birth of Jesus was on this WISE. We are about to celebrate the birth of the GREATEST SECULAR OR PUBLIC TEACHER OF THE SAYINGS OF GOD WHO EVER LIVED ON EARTH once again. Why am I calling Jesus a SECULAR TEACHER? Because he did not BELONG TO in any SORT or KIND OF RELIGION OR RELIGIOUS SECT; He believed IN THE SAYINGS OF GOD and HE TAUGHT THESE SAYINGS IN EVERY PUBLIC PLACE. His teaching of the SAYINGS OF GOD drew thousands of people together. His teaching of THE SAYINGS OF GOD changed peoples LIVES and we in todays WORLD can not give THIS MAN any recognition for what He had done and ACCOMPOLISHED in our World. A DAY is set aside as a rememberance of what Martin Luther King did for a certain GROUP of people here in America. Christmas was OUR DAY to give RECOGNITION to what this man JESUS did for people of ALL RACES; not just a certain GROUP of people. Atheists are NOT going to steal our day of rememberance out of our PUBLIC SECTOR. These manger scenes are erected to remind us that THIS HIGHLY KNOWN PUBLIC TEACHER OF THE SAYINGS OF GOD was born in a STABLE. Did being born in a STABLE stop him from becoming something? No-He became the Greatest KNOWN MAN who ever lived on earth. RELIGION did not make Him the GREATEST PUBLIC TEACHER in the world-HIM EXPLAINING THE SAYINGS OF GOD IN PUBLIC SQUARES brought about His Notority. He taught the SAYINGS OF GOD in a WAY that COMMON people could understand the SAYINGS OF GOD. This is what made HIM the Greatest PUBLIC TEACHER OF THE BEST WAYS OF LIFE and THE BEST WAYS OF GOVERNING ACCORDING TO THE SAYINGS OF GOD. Manger scenes are being erected all across our nation to HONOR THIS TEACHER OF THE WAYS OF LIFE. I am much like this man for you see--This man was NOT a PREACHER, nor did he have any connection or affiliation whatsoever with any RELIGIOUS GROUP or organization. I stand alone JUST LIKE HIM. This man was not some BIG WHEEL; nor did he have a FAMOUS NAME for people to look up to. He started his life off as a NOBODY whose NAME became known throughout the world TEACHING THE SAYINGS OF GOD. He bowed down to no human being. He stood his grounds and NOBODY COULD SHAKE HIM and lived his life according to the SAYINGS OF GOD--not according to the SAYINGS OF MAN. Religion did not REIGN in his life--GOD'S SAYINGS DID. He went to the synagougs a few times a year to TEACH people about the SAYINGS OF GOD.He did not go there for the PREACHERS to teach him. Why he even got MAD because the CHURCH was SELLING DOVES and over threw the MONEYCHANGERS TABLES because He knew that CHURCHES was the place for all people to go to HEAR, LEARN and UNDERSTAND the SAYINGS OF GOD. They were not suppose to turn CHURCHES into BUSINESSES or PLAYGROUNDS. People go to churches TO HEAR THE WORD or SAYINGS OF GOD--NOT TO PURCHASE ITEMS. He SOLD NOTHING ON THE STREETS! His TEACHINGS ABOUT THE WAYS OF LIFE were FREE to anyone who wanted to learn HOW TO HAVE A BETTER LIFE!! All of the SAYINGS of GOD are all wrapped up in ONE BOOK-- and this ONE BOOK has been PRESERVED for FOUR HUNDRED YEARS without ONE WORD BEING CHANGED. The SAYINGS OF GOD in this ONE BOOK are the same today as it was four hundred years ago. Now this man JESUS does not walk this earth any longer but this man is still to GREATEST TEACHER of the SAYINGS OF GOD and is STILL TEACHING OTHERS THROUGH WORDS IN A BOOK called, "The King James Version of the Holy Bible". His BODY is no longer here; we are only left WITH HIS SAYINGS NOW. This BOOK OF HIS SAYINGS IN THE PUBLIC SQUARE needs to be forever SEALED so no one can change ONE WORD THAT HE SAID. New translations of THE HOLY BIBLE are being printed in order for people to get RID OF THE OLD SAYINGS. Words are being changed and people are ADDING TO THE ORIGINAL WORDS SPOKEN. Why some BIBLES are leaving out words from the ORIGINAL SAYINGS which gives the original SAYINGS a different meaning. God SAID--LET THERE BE LIGHT and there was LIGHT. Christmas was a DAY OF RECOGNITION set aside to remember the GREATEST PUBLIC TEACHER OF LIFE IN THE WORLD--JESUS CHRIST. Take the ATHEISTS MANGER SCENE and BLASPHEMOUS VERBAL EXPRESSIONS AWAY FROM OUR MANGER SCENES and our HOLY DAY OF RECOGNITION made in the rememberance of this PUBLIC TEACHER OF THE SAYINGS OF GOD--there is NO PLACE IN THE PUBLIC SQUARE during our celebration of THE BIRTH OF JESUS FOR PEOPLE TO MAKE FUN OF THE ONLY MAN ON EARTH who walked THE PUBLIC STREETS EXPLAINING THE SAYINGS OF GOD and who tried to SPREAD HOPE, PEACE AND LOVE throughout the world. So Congress THe STAR is shining--Follow THE LIGHT and bring your GIFTS to the ALTER. I set before you THE GOLDEN ALTER--JESUS WAS A PUBLIC TEACHER OF THE SAYINGS OF GOD. We was not TIED TO ANY CHURCH or any SORT OR KIND OF RELIGION. He was a PUBLIC SPEAKER so as we can see our manger scenes have nothing to do with any ESTABLISHMENT OF RELIGION. These manger scenes have to do with a MAN born in a stable who walked this earth explaining the SAYINGS OF GOD TO PEOPLE IN THE PUBLIC SQUARES. His explaining the SAYINGS OF GOD changed peoples LIVES and peoples WAYS. Now is the TIME to make 2012 THE YEAR OF THE BIBLE so we can FOREVER PRESERVE THIS HOLYDAY called CHRISTMAS and to be SURE to KEEP THE SAYINGS OF GOD AND THE SAYINGS OF JESUS FOREVER PRESERVED in our HEARTS, OUR MINDS, and OUR COUNTRY. This is THE MARRIAGE SUPPER--The BRIDE has made HERSELF READY. GODS REIGN IS COMING PEOPLE--it is just right around the corner. God Bless!
