At Lincoln Memorial, a Call for Religious Rebirth
"While Tea Party groups have said they want
to focus on fiscal conservatism, not religion or social issues, the
rally was overtly religious."
Hiding in Plain Sight: The Christian Right in the Tea Party Movement
(A Liberal/Progressive Website, but the article is well-documented)
"Why are we just getting the bulletin about "social
conservatives" in the Tea Party movement? The media, beguiled by the
period costumes and libertarian theatrics of the Tea Party
demonstrations, overlooked from the very beginning the influence of
veteran Christian rightwing activists within it. But read between the
lines and you'll find clues that the Christian Right has been in the Tea
Party trenches from the start."
'Values Voter' Crowd Excited by November Prospects
"While the summit’s
content is
politics heavy – as can be expected with the large number of
politicians involved – there was a concerted effort by speakers to
explain their political views in a Christian framework.
Nearly all nine speakers Friday morning had some religious element in
their speech."
Quoted in "Hiding in
Plain Sight: The Christian right in the Tea Party Movement" (hyperlinked
above)
from the New York Times: "Yet while the Tea Party supporters are more conservative than
Republicans on some social issues, they do not want to focus on those
issues: about 8 in 10 say that they are more concerned with economic
issues, as is the general public." Thus is
the public lulled into a sense of security - the Religious Right is no
longer a force to be reckoned with. Some have warned against
complacency:
Fundamentalist Political Movement Focuses On Defeating Obama Health-Care
Proposals and Electing Republicans To Congress and the White House
Ellen G. White has given us this warning, "I have been shown that Satan has
not been stupid and careless these many years, since his fall, but has
been learning. He has grown more artful. His plans are laid
deeper, and more covered with a religious garment to hide their
deformity. The power of Satan now to tempt
and deceive is ten-fold greater than it was in the days of the apostles.
His power has increased, and it will increase, until it is taken away.
(2SG, p.277; emphasis added.) Bible Christians naturally abhor
abortion, homosexuality, and other vices. There is a natural
impulse to support political movements against these sins.
However, sincere Christians might consider a posture of neutrality in
the cultural wars. There can be no question of assent to gay
rights in violation of the Scriptures; however, to become involved with
the religious forces that are warring against these sins
in the political arena is to venture onto
deadly dangerous, enchanted ground, in a sure path to union of Church
and State and the end of religious liberty, which is Satan's objective.
Never forget that the Church of Rome, the Beast of Rev. 13:1-3, has been
and continues to be the driving force of the Religious Right, which is
spearheaded by Apostate Protestants.
LEST WE
FORGET!
The Forming of the Image to the Beast - Is It Now Accomplished?
