I very much appreciate the feedback I receive on my Gem State articles. Fortunately, most of the very negative feedback comes via e-mail. The response that I received about my pushing back on the comments of Sunny Hostin when she opined on TV that Jesus would be at the head of the LGBT parade have […]
Sunny Hostin, one of the hosts on THE VIEW, opined last week that “if Jesus were on earth right now—He would play a leading role in The LGBT parade.” The assumption of the moral high ground without a moral predicate is common amongst secular humanists who believe that they can define for themselves their own […]
Where Are the Voices of Truth and Liberty? A couple of items popped up on my computer this last week that made me wonder where we are as a Christian community and commitment. First I saw a local church in our community making a bold statement to their flock that said this: “…..Church will not […]
Analyzing The Turnout and The Issues This past election was called by many as “the most important election of our lifetime”. We’ve heard that before and maybe it is true. There is no doubt that if you are a Christian, you have felt the insanity in our government and our culture. If this election was […]
God’s Hand In History As His People Seek Him I am no different than many people in our country as we look for a “red wave” to save us and turn this country around on November 8th. As with most Americans, we realize that we are at a tipping point in our country. The Constitution, […]
When I was six years old, I knew that I could fly if I had a red cape. I made such a cape out of a piece of a red curtain in my room. I made a cape for myself and my three-year-old brother who would follow me everywhere, and I set out to FLY. […]
Every week I receive many e-mails about my Gem State Patriot Posts. I don’t even know how people got my e-mail address, but I very much appreciate the instructive, constructive, and even destructive criticisms. One of my best critics is a cross country truck driver named Bill and he said I was getting too negative […]
The concept of charity and lending a helping hand has a Biblical basis in Christian-Judeo theology. Helping the poor in the new and Old Testament was a covenant act between giver and receiver to which God is a party. “What you do unto the least of my brothers you do unto me” and “Do unto […]
We are in a great cultural war. The battle between good and evil has been part of the human experience since Adam and Eve. As Christians we are called on to love God, love each other and reject sin and evil “in all its forms”. As we reject the many evils that confront us, we […]
How are we to be salt and light? Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify […]
“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek.” – Romans 1:16 Our nation, and the world, has been focused on the protests by the Canadien truckers and their willingness to sacrifice […]
Over the past four years Mr. Ted Weiland has posted behind several of my articles making the point that there is a difference between the American People and the governance system set up by our Founding Fathers. He made such a post last week behind an article in The Gem State Patriot by Bob Shillingstad. […]
