Anti-Obama Filmmaker Pleads Guilty In Federal Court

As I read the following article my heart broke and I couldn't help but weep.

It is heartbreaking when Christians believe it is okay to use dishonest means to achieve victory over evil. One does not gain victory over evil through deceit. Dinesh D'Souza has destroyed his Christian testimony and done great harm to the cause of Christ by allowing this charade to continue until forced in court to confess.

I have absolutely no animosity toward my brother in Christ. Just a great deal of sadness. He will have to endure the shame for his actions but each of us that claim the name of Christ need to lift him up in fervent prayer.

Folks, this is not how we win! This is not how the founders of our nation created the greatest Republic in the history of the world.

According to John 8:32 (KJV) And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. I believe this to mean, not only, freedom from the penalties of sin but freedom from the penalties of men. Yes, that freedom sometimes comes at a great price but only truth can bring true liberty. We're losing our liberties more with each passing day. Is it because of an absence of truth?

The only complete truth is found in the perfectly preserved Word of God. Psalms 12:6&7 (KJV) The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.  Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever. Those perfectly preserved Words of God are available for all.

There was a day when the pulpits in America stood up and proclaimed the truth. There was a day when Christians refused to make excuses for the lack of virtue displayed by public officials. When will we, once again, require virtue in exchange for our support and our vote? Job 4:8 (KJV) Even as I have seen, they that plow iniquity, and sow wickedness, reap the same.

D'Souza takes responsibility for campaign cash

Filmmaker Dinesh D’Souza, whose movie “2016: Obama’s America” rocked the 2012 presidential election campaign, pleaded guilty Tuesday to two charges of illegal campaign contributions.

In a hearing before U.S. District Judge Richard Berman that lasted just under an hour, he admitted reimbursing friends for making contributions to Wendy Long’s U.S. Senate campaign in 2012.

He confirmed that he reimbursed two friends $10,000 in cash for their contributions to the campaign. The federal limit for individuals making contributions was $5,000.

The plea bargain had been expected. In a statement announcing the Tuesday hearing, the U.S. attorney’s office used language “that typically indicates that a plea is expected to occur,” according to a New York Times analysis.

Long was challenging Sen. Kirsten E. Gillibrand, a Democrat, in the 2012 race and the filmmaker had friends contribute $20,000 then reimbursed them in cash, according to details available through the court hearing.

The contributions to the campaign were made Aug. 19 and 20, 2012.

Marching To The Beat Of Condemnation

Humanity seeks to replace Christ for the pursuit of an unconventional uncharted path in order to fulfill life’s void and establish secret bliss that is apparently, yet to be discovered. Off-the-wall culture attributes spirituality to forces in the universe by sending out positive energy which will not return void.

The one true God is no longer good enough because within his framework we discover limits, boundaries and expectations. The modern day approach is that if it feels good we should have the right to divulge as we see fit. “This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil,” John 3:19.

Society’s favorite comeback is ‘don’t judge me’ in order to dodge accountability while others respond by testifying ‘only God can judge me’ without having a clue about God’s judgment as outlined in scripture. We are to call one another to accountability, and sharpen one another through fellowship, “so watch yourselves! If another believer sins, rebuke that person; then if there is repentance – forgive,” Luke 17:3.

Granted, God’s mercy and forgiveness expands far beyond our comprehension. He is a God of clemency, but people purposefully forget and even deny that He is also a God of wrath and judgment. His anger is righteous anger – scripture embodies condemnation for those who do not repent and turn away from their sinful habits. Prove by the way you live that you have repented of your sins and turned to God (Romans 12:2; Matthew 3:8). Those who believe and repent become heirs in the kingdom of God (Romans 8:17).

Our Friends Are Killing Us

There is a prophetic verse of Scripture that records the conquering Messiah as being asked about the wounds that are in his hands. He responds, “Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.” (Zechariah 13:6 KJV) Indeed. It wasn’t the Romans that were fixated with killing Christ; it was the Lord’s own brethren. “He came unto his own, and his own received him not.” (John 1:11 KJV) In like manner, our nation is quickly losing its liberties and Natural rights, not because of our enemies, but because of our so-called friends and brothers.

Edmund Burke summarized it beautifully: “All that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing.” And, for the most part, that is what good men are doing today: nothing!

As regular readers of this column know, I am passionate in my defense of the Natural right of self-defense. I firmly believe that the only thing standing between us and tyranny is the right of the people to keep and bear arms. The freedom of speech, the right to assemble and redress government, the right to be secure in our own homes, the right to a trial by jury, the freedom of worship, etc., all depend on the right of the people to keep and bear arms. When the people of America surrender this right, all of the other rights will quickly disappear.

Furthermore, Daniel Webster was absolutely right when he said, "Hold on, my friends, to the Constitution and to the Republic for which it stands. Miracles do not cluster, and what has happened once in 6,000 years, may not happen again. Hold on to the Constitution, for if the American Constitution should fail, there will be anarchy throughout the world." Amen!

Not only does the Second Amendment protect the liberties of the people of the United States, the Second Amendment protects the free peoples of the world. Without the armed citizenry of the people of America, Great Britain, Canada, Australia, France, and the rest of the free world would plummet into abject tyranny and oppression. Look at how socialistic and enslaved people in these countries already are. Can one imagine how quickly they would plunge into the Dark Ages without the power and influence of the last bulwark of liberty: a free and armed United States of America?

Daniel Webster uttered another profound truth: "There is no nation on earth powerful enough to accomplish our overthrow. Our destruction, should it come at all, will be from another quarter: from the inattention of the people to the concerns of their government, from their carelessness and negligence. I must confess that I do apprehend some danger. I fear that they may place too implicit a confidence in their public servants and fail properly to scrutinize their conduct; that in this way they may be made the dupes of designing men and become the instruments of their own undoing."

Ladies and gentlemen, that is exactly what many of our so-called friends and brothers have become: “instruments of their own undoing.” It is not the liberals, socialists, amoralists, elitists, globalists, etc., who are killing us; it is the pastors, Christians, conservatives, Republicans, etc., who sit back and do nothing that are killing us.
