Senate Hearing Stopped By God's Word

Some time ago outgoing chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Peter Pace, made news and was scorned by the liberal mainstream news media for saying publicly that he believes those living a homosexual lifestyle are acting immorally.

According to an Associated Press article, General Pace has upset the politically correct once again by restating his position at a hearing of the Senate Appropriations Committee and taking his remarks a bit further.

The article says General Pace indicated "there are "wonderful Americans who happen to be homosexual serving in the military," but that the law of the land should not condone activity that is "counter to God's law.""

Now here, ladies and gentlemen, is where this story turns horribly bad, reflecting the rapid decline of our nation's morality.

The reaction of many who were present was to boo General Pace - to the point that Senator Robert Byrd, chairman of the committee, had to briefly adjourn it so order could be restored! That, Christians, is how very far we have fallen as a nation!

When people are bold enough in the halls of our government to literally howl at a man for saying that the laws of the United States of America should not condone activity that runs counter to God's law, we are in grave danger as a nation.

Prophetic connection?

Luke 17:28-30:

Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;

But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed [them] all.

Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.

Need I remind anyone what was rampant and socially acceptable in the biblical city of Sodom?

The end is near. Keep looking up!
