Obama gave $1.5B to help Muslim Brotherhood win Egypt election. Take action, free!

June 18, 2012 by Chaplain Gordon Klingenschmitt

Brand New Petition! Demand the U.S. State Department STOP funding or supporting the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, Syria, Nigeria, and Sudan with YOUR tax dollars. Select, sign and we will fax all 535 Sens/Congress instantly, or try free email option for just your Congressman and two Senators.

Obama gave $1.5B to help Muslim Brotherhood win Egypt election. Take action, free!

Today Egypt holds their big election between Mohammed Morsi, head of the Muslim Brotherhood (who has vowed to eradicate Christians), and Ahmed Shafiq, the secularist who served Hosni Mubarak (and may protect Copt Christians, if elected).

Guess which one President Obama endorses?

The Washington Post reports “The White House, perhaps surprisingly, thinks a Morsi victory would be the best for Egypt’s economic transition though it would raise some prickly foreign policy issues.” If the Muslim Brotherhood leader is elected Obama vows to pay Egypt millions more [to persecute Christians], but if the secularist wins Obama fears oppression [of rioting Muslims who hate democracy and demand their right to kill Christians.] No kidding, Obama’s foreign policy is to play favorites for Muslims, against Christians.

Last month President Obama hosted the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood at the White House. Obama also gave the Muslim Brotherhood $1.5 Billion of your tax dollars, according to National Review. This money gives clear insight into Obama’s biased pro-Muslim agenda. Obama didn’t spend $1.5 billion on Americans, or defending religious freedom overseas, rather he gave it to the Muslim Brotherhood, who has given hundreds of millions to Hamas and terrorists. Obama is now openly anti-Christian, anti-Israel, and anti-Women.

Muhammad Morsi, the Muslim Brotherhood candidate, declared that ALL CHRISTIANS in Egypt must convert to Islam or pay a special Christian tax called the jizya, and those who don’t “convert or pay tribute” to Islam will be forced out of the country. When asked what he thought of Egyptian Christians he said “They need to know that conquest is coming, and Egypt will be Islamic, and that they must pay jizya or emigrate.”

Islamic Conquest is at the center of Morsi’s beliefs. Morsi told an interviewer that Amr ibn al As (who conquered Egypt in 641 A.D.) was the first Islamic conquer and that “The second Muslim conqueror will the be Muhammad Morsi and history would record it.”

The Muslim Brotherhood now persecute Christians and Jews in Egypt, Nigeria, Sudan, and Syria, but their goal is to conquer Jerusalem. Why do our tax-dollars fund terrorists?

Let’s take action now, and STOP FUNDING ISLAM WITH OUR TAX-DOLLARS…please sign either our fax petition OR our free petition, below.

In January 2012 the Muslim Brotherhood told Obama and the rest of the world that they would NOT recognize Israel and hinted they would hold a public referendum on whether to declare war on Israel. The deputy chief of the Muslim Brotherhood Rashad al-Bayoumi told London’s Al-Hayat newspaper “We weren’t party to the peace treaty, it was signed away from the Egyptian people and thus the people must have a say.”

On the issue of recognizing Israel al-Bayoumi said Israel was an “occupying entity and we will not allow anyone of our members to meet Israeli,” continuing, “I wont allow myself to meet with a criminal and there’s no chance that we’ll cooperate with Israel.” The fact that Obama gives $1.5 billion to an anti-Semitic organization should come as to no surprise after all Obama has stated he believes that Palestine should be a recognized nation.

Talk about Obama’s war on women? His administration complains that Republicans, Catholics, and Evangelicals resist being forced to hand out free abortion pills in Christian Hospitals. But Obama himself funds the terrorist Brotherhood whose political platform is to impose Sharia Law on the women of Egypt.

The level of hypocrisy and shameless lying that Obama has adopted is beyond comprehension. Obama who is trying to scare woman into thinking that evil Christians want to force woman into a life of forced pregnancy is in fact paying terrorists to degrade and oppress woman.

Sharia Law reduces women to personal property that can be bought, sold, and abused at will. USA Today reports the Brotherhood is already subjecting woman to virginity tests.

Not only is Obama funding this with your tax dollars, he does so without the consent of Congress. Congress told Obama to halt military aid to Egypt until it is certified that basic freedom and human rights are available to all its citizens. But Secretary of State Hillary Clinton announced that “President Obama will resume funding Egypt’s military, despite Congressional restrictions and objections from rights and democracy advocates.”

I guess Obama was not kidding when he said “where Congress is not willing to act, we’re going to go ahead and do it ourselves.” Even the far left Sen. Patrick J. Leahy (D-VT) said “I believe [sending the aid] would be a mistake. The new [restrictions were] intended to put the United States squarely on the side of the Egyptian people who seek a civilian government that respects fundamental freedoms and rule of law, and clearly define the terms of our future relations with the Egyptian military.”

Let’s tell Congress to save the lives of Christians, protect Israel and protect women from abuse! Stop Obama from giving your money to sworn enemies of America and Christians.

Victory! School Reverses Bible Ban during Graduation Speeches

June 18, 2012 by Chaplain Gordon Klingenschmitt

Let us pray. Almighty God, we thank You that a South Carolina school district has reversed its previous ruling that prohibited a “Student of the Year” from being able to quote a verse from the Book of Proverbs in her graduation speech. We are encouraged that this young student leader may now freely and publicly quote Proverbs 13:14: “The soul of the sluggard craves and gets nothing, while the soul of the diligent is richly supplied.” Help Your Church to disciple more young leaders to be committed to teaching Biblical principals in our society, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Study: Kids Raised by Homosexuals Are More Sexually Abused

June 17, 2012 by Chaplain Gordon Klingenschmitt

Let us pray. Almighty God, we pray that our society will heed the sobering findings from a recent study that indicates children of parents who practiced homosexuality were more likely to be on welfare, have a greater history of depression, have less education, and encounter far more sexual abuse. Your Word says, “Permit the children to come to [Jesus], and do not hinder them, for the Kingdom of God belongs to such as these” (Luke 18:16). Help protect every child’s right to grow up in a home with one Christian mother and one Christian father, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Ninth Circuit Court forces homosexual ‘marriage’ upon California Voters (again)

June 15, 2012 by Chaplain Gordon Klingenschmitt

Let us pray.

Pentagon Bans Bibles from Military Exchange Stores. Guess who's to blame?

June 14, 2012 by Chaplain Gordon Klingenschmitt

Urgent Petition! Defend Military Chaplains. Demand Congress keep 2 good chaplain amendments to H.R. 4310 to protect chaplains free speech and chapels from desecration. Select here, sign petition, we will fax all 100 Senators (saving you time!)

Pentagon Bans Bibles from Military Exchange Stores. Guess who’s to blame?

In yet another case of cowardice by senior military officials, the Pentagon has caved into atheist complainers and banned certain Bibles from stores on military bases.

The Christian Post reports: “An atheist activist group is claiming a victory in its ongoing effort to keep religious expression and symbols out of the U.S. armed services after it was announced that the Department of Defense is removing military edition Bibles from its exchange stores. A chaplain alliance group is asking Congress to investigate whether the action taken was religious discrimination.

“The [Militant Religion Foes] Foundation (MRFF) said that the Holman Christian Standard Bibles editions ‘prominently emblazoned with exact replicas of the trademarked emblems of the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and Air Force’ could be seen as the official religious text of the four branches.

“Once again our foundation has decisively beaten back those who would see the wall separating church and state reduced to rubble,” said Mikey Weinstein, president and founder of MRFF.”

Dr. Chaps’ comment: So our troops can’t buy Bibles? You may remember Mikey as the self-described enemy of Jesus Christ who also sued me (and lost bigtime) because I prayed Psalm 109 to God, just like Mikey’s apparently now lost 5 lawsuits in a row against Christians or Christianity.

Mikey once said of his own agenda: “We are at war with a sub-set of evangelical Christianity…how many? Roughly 12.6% of the American public or 38 million people.”

Sadly now the Pentagon and cowardly leaders of Base Exchange Stores caved-in to the domestic enemies of the Constitution and religious freedom, including Mikey who hates Bibles and the First Amendment freedom of the press.

Good News: Bishops representing 2,000+ chaplains are fighting back, demanding a Congressional investigation of Mikey’s anti-Christian persecution.

“These Bibles cost the Department of Defense nothing, and their presence is legally legitimate; therefore, no reason exists for the DoD to retreat in the face of the small anti-religious group that demanded removal of the Bibles,” said Chaplain Ron Crews of The Chaplain Alliance for Religious Liberty.

Please, please donate to our “Free Bibles for our Troops” campaign, this week only, and we will make your donation to our troops for Bibles in the name of Mikey Weinstein.

Then take a stand for chaplains, and religious freedom in the military, by petitioning Congress to keep the two good pro-chaplain amendments already in H.R. 4310, here:

First Lesbian ‘Wedding’ desecrates Military Chapel. Obama violates state law.

President Obama trampled on Louisiana state law, and desecrated the Christian chapel on a military post at Fort Polk, Louisiana, by authorizing the first homosexual ‘wedding’ ceremony by a lesbian couple in a military chapel. Flaunting his federal power over Louisiana (whose law clearly defines Marriage = 1 Man + 1 Woman), and ignoring the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act, Obama’s Pentagon lawyer Jeh Johnson issued a memo this year forcing all military chapels in all 50 states to be open for ‘gay’ weddings.

Now we learn that three weeks ago, a lesbian couple was secretly ‘married’ upon, and desecrated the Christian altar in the base chapel with sod omy, marking the first reported homosexual wedding in a military chapel ever. A pro-homosexual chaplain presided at the ‘marriage-like religious ceremony’ of two lesbian soldiers, but did not issue a license, making the union illegal in the eyes of both Lousiana law, and the laws of Almighty God.

Congressman John Fleming, M.D. (R-LA) told CNSNews.com on Wednesday that “the U.S. Army had confirmed to him that the chaplain had performed the ceremony less than a month ago in the base chapel at Fort Polk, which is in Fleming’s district.”

“It is my understanding that this is the first ceremony of its type on an American military base and that is, as it’s reported, it was a wedding ceremony between two members of the same gender who are uniformed members of the Army,” Fleming said.

Congressman Todd Akin (R-MO), said this confirms the need for the Senate to pass two good pro-chaplain amendments protecting chapels and chaplains free speech: “It is very concerning that a same-sex ceremony would occur on a military base in a state where the definition of marriage has been clearly defined as between one man and one woman,” Akin said. “This action is clearly in contravention of state law, and also violates the Defense Department policies issued last fall. This appears to be a case where political agenda has trumped the rule of law, which is absolutely unacceptable. This confirms the importance of the language that my colleagues and I worked to include in the House-passed National Defense Authorization Act for 2013, which would protect chaplains and servicemembers from this liberal agenda. The same individuals who will violate the law to advance their agenda will persecute those around them who disagree with their views.”

“Congressman Akin has led the efforts to protect traditional marriage on military bases. In 2011, Congressman Akin offered an amendment to H.R. 1540 which was stripped by the Senate. In May 2012, Akin offered an amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act for 2013 which would protect servicemembers and chaplains from recriminations based on their concerns regarding same-sex marriage.”

[Dr. Chaps’ comment: Folks, I have been repeatedly saying for months, what nobody believed was true, that military chapels both Catholic and Protestant will be desecrated in all 50 states by acts of sod omy on the Christian altar, robbing all our troops of their right to a sacred worship space. Any chaplain who objects will be punished, and the keys to his chapel must be turned over to homosexual activists. Does anybody doubt that my warning has now come true?]

We must take action to protect our chapels. Please sign our petition to all 100 Senators.

Pelosi persecutes Chaplains, then lies, calling them “a fraud…manufactured crisis.”

I personally traveled to Washington DC this week to meet my Congressman and visit the staff of 23 Senate offices to personally deliver YOUR 100,000+ petitions (again) for chaplains’ freedom. I walked and prayed past all 100 Senators offices, and entered and delivered hand-written notes to 23 Senators on the Armed Services Committee (please call each listed here by dialing 202-225-3121 today) to demand free speech for military chaplains, and protection for Christian chapels from sod omite desecration.

I stood outside the House of Representatives floor while they voted to PASS our two good chaplain amendments in HR 4310 the National Defense Authorization Act of 2013.

My full report press release from my visit to Capitol Hill is here, which you can please forward to news reporters or radio hosts. Christian Post called me for the following report:

Pelosi Calls Chaplain ‘Conscience Clause’ a ‘Fraud’ By Paul Stanley, Christian Post

“House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi blasted a Republican proposal that would protect military chaplains from performing same-sex marriages, saying the provision in unnecessary.

“Nobody is ordering them to do that,” Pelosi told reporters Thursday. “I’ve never seen any suggestion that we’re ordering chaplains to perform same-sex [marriages]. Where is that? I think that they can rest assured that if they don’t believe in that, they don’t have to perform those…When asked by a reporter at her Thursday press conference if she supported the provision, Pelosi said she sided with the White House in opposing it.

“I do not support that provision in the bill, that part of the bill,” she said. “I agree with the administration. And there’s nothing that says that chaplains act against their faith. Arguing that the issue was moot, she added, ‘Because it’s a fraud. It’s a – Welcome to the world of manufactured crises. Here’s one.’…”

“Former Navy Chaplain [Gordon] James Klingenschmitt was lobbying [23] members of the Senate Armed Services Committee Friday on Capitol Hill and took exception to the minority leader’s comments.

“I disagree with Rep. Pelosi. There are dozens of active duty chaplains who have been pressured to not speak against homosexuality,” Klingenschmitt told The Christian Post. “I know of one Army and one Navy chaplain who have already resigned. Another active duty chaplain has been silenced, threatened and punished against speaking against ‘don’t ask, don’t tell.’ What they [Pelosi] are saying is simply false….”

“Klingenschmitt expects the White House to threaten to veto the proposal but there a number of Democratic senators such as Joe Manchin of West Virginia who are starting to distance themselves from President Obama on this issue. [Also call Claire McCaskill, Ben Nelson, and Jim Webb.]

“I’m confident we’ll have this provision in the final bill, but it’s a 50-50 chance at this point.”

“The House voted 299-120 to approve the Defense Authorization Act late Friday afternoon. However, the bill faces a steep battle in the Senate.” [LET’S TAKE ACTION…]

Please select here to sign urgent petition, and we will fax all 100 Senators (saving you time!) to PROTECT MILITARY CHAPELS, CHAPLAINS AND TROOPS RELIGIOUS FREEDOM to oppose immorality, and keep the 2 good chaplain amendments to H.R. 4310.

Victory! House Armed Services Cmte protects Chaplains and Chapels

The House Armed Services Committee added (but the Senate has not yet added) two good religious freedom amendments to the 2013 Defense Authorization Act H.R. 4310, protecting free speech for military chaplains who refuse to preside at homosexual ‘wedding’ ceremonies, and blocking same-sex marriage or marriage-like ceremonies in chapels on military bases.

The Hill reports: “Members of the House Armed Services committee voted to include the measure by Rep. Steve Palazzo (R-Miss.) into the panel’s version of the fiscal 2013 defense authorization bill late Wednesday night.

“The measure, which prevents ‘marriage or marriage-like ceremonies’ between same-sex couples from taking place at American military bases, was approved by a 37 to 24 vote along party lines.

“Republican panel members also approved language to protect military personnel from reprisals for expressing ‘their moral principles and religious beliefs… concerning the appropriate and inappropriate expression of human sexuality.’

“That amendment, sponsored by Rep. Todd Akin (R-Mo.) was approved by a straight party-line vote of 36 to 25.” Now bishops for 2,000 military chaplains are petitioning to pass these amendments to defend chaplains rights.

Sadly, military chaplains report heavy reprisals, as confirmed by Human Events who interviewed “one currently serving chaplain, who spoke to Human Events on the condition of anonymity, told a similar story of pressure to conform [to endorsing homosexual sin]. He declined to give his name citing fear of reprisal; active duty service members are not to speak to the media without prior authorization….now it is chaplains who say they are being muzzled by the military and a group has formed to pass legislation seeking relief on their behalf.”

[Dr. Chaps’ comment: Chaplains being muzzled? Free speech censored? Boy does that sound familiar. 2012 is 2006 all over again for evangelical chaplains. It’s time to clean house and pass this new pro-chaplain law, so let’s all DEMAND all 100 Senators keep the good pro-chaplain amendments. Please sign our petition today…]

Let us pray. Almighty God, we praise You that the Washington State Governor’s legalization of homosexual marriage was temporarily blocked by the state’s voters, who will soon hold a referendum. Your Word says, “Prove yourselves doers of the word, not merely hearers who delude themselves” (James 1:22). Thank God Christian voters have taken action in obedience of Your mandate to stand for righteousness in our perverted culture. Help us to allow Your redemptive power to work through us to defend righteousness and the traditional family, for the sake of our children and our nation, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
