A Disturbing Legacy

Since the Supreme Court established abortion as the law 1973, the blood of the innocent American blood has flowed in sacrifice to Satan and in defiance to God. Although insidious Progressives ushered in the practice to curtail the growth of the black community, abortion has affected every demographic group and stifled native population growth.

A Tragic Choice

In the name of women’s choice, millions of talented leaders, businesspeople, workers, scholars, entrepreneurs and parents have been sacrificed to Satan rather than dedicated to God. An innumerable host of sons and daughters have been murdered and subsequently discarded into trash bins and incinerators instead of being born, loved and raised into productive human beings.

A Statistical Nightmare

The Centers for Disease Control say that more than 18 percent of all pregnancies in the US end in abortions, according to the LA Times. That’s almost one-fifth of all children conceived. Despite a statistical decline in the number of abortions performed over the past few years, mothers murder about 1 million children annually ritually murdered as the nation attempts to please Satan. What a horrible price to pay.

The Real Choice

Truth in the Word believes that the real choice every female should make is to refuse to allow any male to stick his penis inside her unless she is prepared to accept the responsibilities of motherhood. Every male also has a choice. Rather than behaving themselves like roaming brute beasts, they can choose to keep their penises to themselves until they have become husbands and have the means to support a family.

Of course, the best choice anyone can make is repentance. When a person turns away from the god of this world and accepts the salvation provided by Jesus Christ, that person becomes a new creature who is unwilling to murder children as a way to please Satan.

The disastrous criminal fraud who is the sworn enemy of the United States got another pass from voters and four more years to seal the demise of the once-free USA.

The Right Choice Rejected

During the campaign, Americans could have supported, nominated and voted for a true Conservative who had a solid plan to restore the U.S. to Constitutional rule. Ron Paul had tremendous support from all demographics and offered to change things as they are in Washington by asserting the Constitution of the United States of America.

Blacked Out by the Establishment

The people embraced Ron Paul, but the Obama media and the corrupt Republican Party forced the “more electable” Mitt Romney upon us. This left Americans with a choice between two very similar candidates. We preferred Romney because he is a U.S. citizen and is most likely NOT a communist jihadist like Soetoro.

A New Beginning

In the aftermath of the most disastrous elections of human history to date, Ron Paul graciously spoke via a recent email. Here’s what he said.

Ron Paul: A New Beginning
by Ron Paul

America is over $16 trillion in debt. The “official” unemployment rate still hovers around 8%.

Our federal government claims the right to spy on American citizens, indefinitely detain them, and even assassinate them without trial.

Domestic drones fly over the country for civilian surveillance.

Twelve million fewer Americans voted in 2012 than in 2008, yet political pundits scratch their heads.

It’s not hard to see why, though.

To go along with endorsing a never-ending policy of bailouts, “stimulus packages,” and foreign military adventurism, the establishment of neither major party questions the assaults on Americans’ liberties I’ve named above.

As my campaign showed, the American people are fed up. Many realized heading into Tuesday that regardless of who won the presidential election, the status quo would be the real victor.

GOP leadership is now questioning why they didn’t perform better.

They’re looking at demographic changes in the United States and implying minorities can only be brought into the party by loudly advocating for abandoning what little remains of their limited government platform and endorsing more statist policies.

My presidential campaign proved that standing for freedom brings people together.

Liberty is popular – regardless of race, religion, or creed.

As long as the GOP establishment continues to not only reject the liberty message, but actively drive away the young, diverse coalition that supports those principles, it will see results similar to Tuesday’s outcome.

A renewed respect for liberty is the only way forward for the Republican Party and for our country.

I urge all my Republican colleagues to join the liberty movement in fighting for a brighter future.

US News and World Reports says what many of us already know: Ron Paul will continue to fight for liberty. So will TIW.

TIW Speaks

TIW believes that the decline of the U.S. is irreversible. A nation that collectively rejected God decades ago, endorses murder, perpetrates injustice and rewards corruption cannot have a great future. Furthermore, strong delusion has set in, and will only get worse. The Bible says the delusion comes from God to people who have rejected the truth in the Word…

… that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.  2 Thessalonians 2:11-12

The United States has become the leading force of evil in the world today, overtly supporting communists, terrorists, dictators and elitists; and spawning immeasurable human suffering. The tyranny of the U.S. Government has claimed the right to dictate which Americans live and which ones die. Liberty is the privilege of the Power Elite class that sucks wealth from the poor and working classes to enrich the ultra-wealthy.

TIW continues to support Ron Paul and his doctrines of freedom. Unfortunately, Ron Paul may have missed one point: Americans no longer want freedom. If they valued liberty, they would fight for it.

Truth is the Only Answer

As Ron Paul points out, the truth is the only force that free us of the chains with which American Progressives have bound us.

You do not, however, have to wait for Ron Paul or any other freedom fighter to set you free. Jesus has the power to set everyone free regardless of their place in life. Turn to Him to free your mind and spirit even when your body is in bondage.

And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free… If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed. John 8:32, 36

The Anderson Independent Mail reports that immoral, despicable Upstate voters handed the corrupt RINO pro-abortion baby killer Larry Martin a hands-down victory over Conservative Rex Rice.

**** ORIGINAL STORY FOLLOWS ****

DO NOT VOTE until you learn more about South Carolina State Senator Larry Martin. This man is a Republican from Pickens, but he has been rejected by the SC Tea Party and has failed to establish ANY pro-life credentials.

Gimme a Sign! Gimme a Sign!

Today, one person (seen in the photo) standing on the corner of US 123 and Prince Perry Rd in Easley (opposite Rock Springs Baptist Church) silently told departing Sunday-morning churchgoers and the rest of the world the truth about Larry Martin.

Rex Rice for SC Senate District 2

Martin was endorsed by our RINO-establishment-Good Ol’ Boy- GOP Governor Nikki Haley, giving Truth in the Word and all Christians in South Carolina one more good reason to vote for his challenger, Rex Rice.

Larry Martin’s involvement in the Republican primary scandal is another good reason to vote for Rex Rice. In that scandal, Republican incumbents joined with the SC Republican machine to decertify dozens of primary results that favored challengers. Among those defrauded by the SC GOP was Rex Rice who was tossed in favor of loser Larry Martin. Rice, however, became one of several challengers to mount a successful petition campaign to earn a position on the general-election ballot.

Gideon used powerful leadership tools to avoid civil war with Ephraim.

Many people consider Gideon a hero. He was a hero, except for the fact he ended his career by causing Israel to go whoring after a golden ephod (see the Bible verses in Judges 8:27). We could stop and ask why so many good men in the Bible finished their lives poorly. At least the land had forty years of rest, despite the snare Gideon put in Israel’s way.

Overview

Gideon was one of the judges in Israel. God used him to deliver the people and win major battles. As a leader, he exemplified boldness, courage and assertiveness in ways that can instruct us all.

The enemy

Israel did evil in the sight of the Lord, so God sent Midian to afflict Israel for seven years. When the time came to set the people free, God raised up Gideon to cast off the forces of Midian. After confirming the will of God with a fleece, Gideon raised an army and set out to defeat the Midianites.

The battle

The soldiers of Midian were like locusts, swarming about the land. For years, Israel lived in fear of Midian. The people had to hide in caves because the Midianites would kill the Israelites on sight. The Midianites would steal crops whenever the Israelites tried to grow food.

Gideon had 32,000 men to fight against Midian, but God said the army was too big. Gideon first sent 22,000 fearful and trembling soldiers home. Out of the remaining 10,000, God chose 300 men who lapped when they drank water. The rest went home.

The victory

To make a long story short, God gave Gideon and his 300 men a major victory. Most people recognize the victory God gave Gideon over the Midianites as one of the great victories of the Bible.

When Gideon returned home after liberating Israel, they had ticker tape parades. They were, no doubt, shouting with joy. They gave high fives, chest bumps and knuckle touches. Some did cartwheels. This was a great victory. The people were free.

The disagreement

Everyone was happy except Ephraim. They acted like someone had urinated on their corn flakes. They were not happy campers. They wanted help win the victory, but they weren’t allowed. They wanted to take part in the battle, but Gideon had sent their sorry tails home.

That’s right. The men of Ephraim either didn’t join the army, were fearful and trembling, or failed to lap when they drank water.

Jdg 8:1     Then the men of Ephraim said to him, “What is this that you have done to us, not to call us when you went to fight against Midian?” And they accused him fiercely.

Lessons in leadership

Gideon, high from the victory, could have told the men of Ephraim to stifle. He could have ridiculed them for their failure to qualify for the élite company that fought the battle and won. Gideon could have told the men of Ephraim how utterly pathetic, sorry and disgraceful they were. They should shut up and go home. Stinkin’ party poopers.

Israel was free and Ephraim was pouting and not shouting.

Seek to understand before being understood

Gideon took the time to understand the complaint the men of Ephraim had. They were left out. They felt ignored. Like a youth baseball team, the coach chose his favorites to get all the glory, but left the rest of the team sitting on the bench. Gideon showed leadership by listening to – and understanding – the complaint against him.

Everyone likes being a part of success

Gideon knew that human nature wants to take part in success. After all, Ephraim was just as good as any other part of the team, so why couldn’t Ephraim play too? Gideon understood human nature.

The wise response of a leader

Gideon could have jumped all over the men of Ephraim. He could have told them how low-down and sorry they were. He could have told them to shut up and leave the country if they didn’t like the way he operated. He could have mocked them in front of the rest of the nation.

The situation could have gotten out of hand. Civil war could have erupted with Gideon putting down Ephraim by force.

Giving kudos

Instead of berating Ephraim, Gideon chose to highlight the great contributions Ephraim had made to the cause. Compared to Gideon, Ephraim had done much more to bring liberty to Israel.

What have I been able to do in comparison with you?

Humility, respect and empowerment

In these Bible verses, the men of Ephraim fiercely argued with Gideon, yet Gideon kept his cool. He diffused a tough situation by showing humility and respect. He held up Ephraim’s accomplishments as better than his own.

Rather than fighting with Ephraim, Gideon effected peace. Rather than having division, Gideon brought unity.

True leaders will us a little understanding, patience, humility and respect to keep the team together so everyone can enjoy important victories. Wherever you have a leadership role, remember to use this Truth in the Word to help you and your team succeed.

Those who focus their minds on God will have peace.

Those who turn to God find out that He will help people when they experience distress, poverty and need. Even when God turns the world upside down, scattering everyone, those who anchor their mind on God will live to see  better day.

Isaiah praises the faithfulness of God in Isaiah chapter 26 and then reveals the secret to inner personal peace.

In 2.5 minutes, this Moment of Truth can change your life.
