Lord, Deliver Us from Domestic Terrorists...


This is a very scary must-read.

Satan walks amongst us, toting a Bible...

These, we can only assume, are the same folks who once set Cleveland's rivers on fire.

Ohio can now be considered the Portal to Hell.

This is what they're thinking:


Overview

Today, there is intense spiritual warfare for the heart, soul, and direction of America. 
A generational harvest of changed lives weighs in the balances.

The Stewardship of our Citizenship is crucial to this hour. The Sacred Trust of Freedom has been purchased with a purpose. From America’s beginning, the Mayflower Compact openly declares that our forefathers were birthing this nation for “the advancement of the Christian faith.” All 50 of our state constitutions acknowledge and give honor to the Lord.  The declaration of Independence declares that we are "endowed by our Creator, with certain inalienable rights."  With only 5% of the world's population, God has blessed the United States with nearly 40% of the world's wealth.  Now more than ever, we are convinced that God has blessed this nation with resources to share the light of God's Word with a world lost in darkness. America has had a mission to share a living Savior with a dying world.

During the past 50 years, that mission has come under heavy spiritual warfare. Recently, the birth pains have increased in frequency and intensity.  The forces of hell understand Biblical prophecy better than most people sitting in the pews on Sunday morning. The intensity of the warfare for the heart and soul of America is escalating:
• Teaching creation in our public schools has become a federal lawsuit.
• Biblical definitions of marriage are being tragically altered by some judges who think they are smarter than God and begin to legislate secular dogma from the bench.
• American universities have become the arteries of spiritual toxic waste.
• “Homosexual marriages” are being paraded in 50 states
• In some cities, abortions nearly outnumber births
• HIV and sexually transmitted diseases will kill more Americans than every war this country has ever fought.
• Secularists have hijacked our culture--one year at a time.
• Denominational bigotry, division within the Body of Christ, and apostasy have weakened the voice of Biblical reason.
• Around the globe, ministers of the Gospel are being threatened with “hate crimes” legislation.

With so much of world history weighing in the balances, it's not enough to simply make moral observations and diagnose the culture. “Better to light one candle than to curse the darkness” has become our course of action.  In the months to come, the Ohio Restoration Project seeks to ignite hundreds of thousands of “candles” of influence and light in the public arena.  The Hinges of History are moving on our watch. Ohio stands at the critical crossroads to America’s future leaders.

By God's design, for such a time as this, Ohio is truly at the “heart of it all!”

Thank you for caring and making a difference.

America Has a Mission to Share a Living Savior With a Dying World


When the going get twisted, the twisted get going.

So, there you have it. If you think this will somehow simply pass over, you're sadly mistaken.

This is what they're currently planning to do:


Our Plan

Ohio Restoration Project will organize and execute:

1 - Host seven Pastor Policy Briefings in the cities mentioned below from March through September.

Six weeks prior to the gathering, this will require a site inspection team of Pastor Russell and key leaders from the area. Marketing packets will be distributed through these meetings to ensure as many leaders as possible being in attendance at these Pastor Policy Briefings. All seven of these Policy Briefings will include informational packets on the Ohio for Jesus pastor's gathering in late October to early November in 2005.

2 - Pastor Policy Briefings in the targeted cities:

• Cincinnati
• Columbus
• Cleveland
• Canton/Akron
• Dayton/Springfield
• Steubenville/Youngstown
• Toledo/Findlay
• Martin's Ferry

These briefings will feature prominent, dynamic Christian leaders. We will identify and equip 2,000 Pastors to become Patriot Pastors.  Dates and speakers are being finalized now, and will be available by May 1st.

3 - Encourage ministers across the state of Ohio to become Patriot Pastors. Patriot Pastors will be challenged to:
 
• Preach and inform their congregations on issues relevant to the Christian Community. These ministers of the Gospel who are needed to encourage their church families to be engaged in the culture as a light set on a hill that refuses to be hid.

• Help build a network of addresses and e-mails that will equip concerned Christians to become informed “Minutemen” of our day. Patriot Pastors will work towards adding 200 names to our statewide mailing and 100 e-mails. We presently have 60,000 names on our AFA Ohio mailing and 55,000 on other lists that have been made available. This does not include the 55,215 e-mailing addresses that we currently have. We would like to build that to a total of 300,000 on the mailing list and 100,000 e-mail addresses. In a single day, we could educate and mobilize hundreds of thousands who are able to pray at a moment's notice. A website could be developed helping thousands of families to have access to information that equips these folks to make a stand.

• Host nonpartisan voter registration drives in their churches. Patriot Pastors will work toward registering 300 new voters by April 2006. These can be solicited in nonpartisan registration drives in a variety of ways. There are 88 counties with more than 7,000 churches. If we could see 00,000 new registered voters involved in the process, this would be a serious step towards the “Stewardship of our Citizenship.”

• Include Voter Guides and inserts provided from Christian Coalition, American Family Association, and Center For Moral Clarity. Informed voters appreciate these tools in discovering where candidates stand on the issues. These Voter Guides are great tools to help engage their communities with conviction and confidence. These guides help clarify the positions of various candidates who, at times, would like to remain vague and noncommittal.

• Mobilize voter participation through transportation for the elderly, childcare for young families, congregational prayer meetings for elections, praying for those candidates requesting prayer, being involved and engaged as “salt and light” within the culture.

• Encourage their church families to participate in Pastor Policy Briefings and regional “God and Country Rallies” where the issues of the day are underscored and highlighted and the Judeo-Christian ethic is affirmed. Nationally known speakers Franklin Graham, Zell Miller, Secretary of State Ken Blackwell, Bob McEwen, Pastor Lawrence White, Pastor Rod Parsley, Ambassador Alan Keyes, Jerry Falwell, James Dobson, Chuck Colson, Pat Robertson and Tony Perkins will be asked to participate.  

4 - When the 2005-2006 cycle has been completed, our goal will be to have accomplished:

• 2,000+ Ohio Pastors participating in seven key city Pastor Briefings (March – September)
• Christian Minutemen mailing list enlarged to 300,000 and 100,000 e-mails.
• 2,000+ Ohio Ministers become Patriot Pastors and attend major gathering in fall of 2005
• 30,000+ Christians sharing in a OHIO for JESUS Rally in early 2006.
• 4 Million Voter Guides distributed in the fall of 2005 for first the May Primaries in 2006 and then for November 2006.
• Video production and distribution of Patriot Pastors Briefing for 7,497 Ohio Pastors.

America Has a Mission to Share a Living Savior With a Dying World


They have declared war on America.

They mean to do harm to our American way of life.

They do not care about you, your soul, your hobbies, your family.

They want Power. Total Power.

And they must be stopped.

Here's a calculator to help you get a clearer picture of just how you'd make out under Obama's tax plan, rather than just extending the Bush tax cuts which is all that McCain is proposing.




Stop the heartbreak of catalog glut.
