WHO IS OUR ENEMY?

August 5, 2010 By Pastor David Stone

I just finished reading an article entitled,”Our own government has become our enemy”. I’ve also read several comments lately saying that it’s time for a second American revolution–some say it has already started.
 
I never thought I would live to see the day when Americans would be building up arsenals in preparation for battle against their own government. We always thought that kind of stuff happens somewhere else. Right? Well, dear friend it’s happening here. If you can’t see what is happening in America you’re living in a dream world. Come to think of it–that’s exactly what many folks are doing. They are so uninformed that they don’t have a clue as to what is happening in America. All they know is what they hear from a few sound-bites from the corrupt liberal news media that is dead set on destroying America.
 
Like it or not, believe it or not, America is in serious trouble and unless something is done things are about to get a whole lot worse. Coach Dave Daubenmire put it like this–“Liberty is on life support, they are purposely pushing us in a corner.”
 
In the last few days we’ve seen two very important examples of state rights being trampled under-foot by federal judges. First was the ruling in Arizona regarding immigration laws. Then came the ruling in California denying the right of the state to define marriage as a union of one man and one woman. Commenting on these two rulings, Dave Daubenmire wrote:
 

In both cases, the courts “struck down” the will of the people. In both instances, one woman, and then one man, booted our Republican form of government to he curb. If the vote of the people can no longer change the laws of the land; when the “opinion” of one judge can over-rule the “opinion” of the majority of the people we have descended into unspeakable tyranny. America is teetering on the precipice.

My friends, America is broken and no one is more culpable than the courts. Our “domestic” enemies have done in sixty years what our “foreign enemies” could never have accomplished. While America’s young men were fighting to preserve liberty with guns and grenades, the real insurgents were using legal briefs and atheistic lawyers. All of the great moral terrorism levied on this nation was done, not by those dressed in a burka, but by those dressed in legal robes. Not by those trained in Islam, but by those trained in law. The “terrorist in black robes” have destroyed this nation.

Folks, court opinions are not law. Courts cannot make laws, they can only interpret them. Only the Congress or the people can make laws. Allow me to say it again. Courts cannot make laws. When will America wake up? The rendering of a court “decision” carries no lawful weight. As Andrew Jackson is reported to have said regarding a John Marshall Court decision, “Marshall made his decision, now let him enforce it.” It is time to stand up against the secular mullahs masquerading as “judges”. There opinions are not laws and it is time we started acting like it.

Dear friends I realize that as Christians it is not our job to change and save the world, but if we do our job it will sure make a difference. As we win the lost to Christ people change and ultimately society begins to change. That’s our only hope for America. We aren’t doing our best for America unless we are doing our best to carry out the great commission given to us by the Lord. If you really care about the future of your children and grandchildren, then get busy trying to win folks to Christ. That’s the only thing that will bring about the changes we need. Think about it!
