"Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord. Psalm 33:12

Pray:
Father, We reaffirm that You are our God and we are Your people. We ask You for a government after Your own heart - right now. In Jesus' name.



"What children would learn in American schools above all else is the religion of Jesus Christ." - George Washington

A student has teamed up with the Alliance Defense Fund to file a lawsuit against a New York school district after school officials cancelled her once-flourishing Christian club. 

At the beginning of her freshman year at Half Hollow Hills High School East, the student was told that the Ichthus Club, a student-led group where she was one of the leaders, had been cancelled without any advanced notification. Four years earlier, her older brother had met strong resistance before the club was finally allowed to form.

School officials claim that unspecified budget cuts and a lack of student popularity spurred their decision. However, leaders in the club point out that it had more than 55 student attendees last year, and complain that approximately 60 other student clubs, including the Gay-Straight Alliance and Amnesty International, were allowed to continue.

The student leader sought to work with the administration to keep the club, even offering to cut expenses by meeting every other week and finding a club advisor who would volunteer, but officials and the school board declined the offer.

“Christian student groups in public schools shouldn’t be discriminated against simply because they are religious,” said ADF Senior Legal Counsel David Cortman.

“Singling out a religious student club while letting the vast majority of the others remain constitutes viewpoint discrimination and is unconstitutional. In addition, it’s simply false that this club is not popular with students. More than 90 students signed a petition in favor of allowing the club to continue meeting.”

Obama Lies About Faith
Some of Obama's lies to Christians in one January 2008 Christianity Today interview alone include, Obama:

- Said "I am a devout Christian", but devout Christians love God with all their heart, all their soul and all their mind. Instead, Obama knowingly breaks God's Ten Commandments (abortion) and is trying to change God's ordinance on marriage. (Mark 12:30)


- Said "I don't know anyone who is pro-abortion", but Obama said he would leave a living baby who survived an abortion to die, and he and Hillary Clinton have given hundreds of million of US money to fund abortions in foreign countries, including China, through the UN.
 
- Said "I have never practiced Islam... it's not my own", but he says he is a Muslim in other videos and his Indonesian school records list Obama as a Muslim, where he was taught Islam.
 
- Said "we don't lie about religion as a way to score political points", but this interview was used to lie to Christians.

"I am upset with Obama lying to the USA about faith - he deceived so many", said one dissatisfied voter.

The Fruit Shows Obama is a Wolf in Sheep's Clothing
"You will know them by their fruit", Jesus said speaking of wolves in sheep's clothing.

Jesus also says, "He who has My commands and obeys them, it is he who loves Me" (John 14:21). But Obama disobeys Jesus' commands, such as lying, trying to overturn God's command of man-woman marriage, removing abstinence teaching from schools, breaking the Ten Commandments which say not kill the unborn, covering up Jesus at Georgetown, removing the daily Bible verse at the Pentagon, trying to remove Jesus at Christmas...

Christians are commanded to be wise as a serpent and harmless as a dove. With 82% of the USA believing Jesus Christ and the majority pro-life, Americans should be outraged. (Polls from Rasmussen Reports.)
