Texas Gov. Rick Perry is accusing President Barack Obama of engaging in spiritual warfare and is urging Christian voters to “send a message to Washington that our nation is about more than some secular laws and activist courts."
According to the Austin American-Statesman, the Republican made the claim in a conference call with evangelicals Tuesday, in which he warned that the "spiritual warfare," as he put it, "may be growing stronger as President Obama and his cronies in Washington continue their effort to remove any trace of religion from American life."
He added, "It falls on us [as] Christian warriors, Christian soldiers, and it's for us as Americans, to stand our ground.”
Perry, who withdrew from the presidential race earlier this year, also dismissed the idea of separation of church and state....snip...
"The idea that we should be sent to the sidelines [is] driven by those who are not truthful," the governor said. "Satan runs across the world with his doubt and his untruths, and what have you, and one of the untruths out there [that] is driven is that people of faith should not be involved in the public arena.”

The quotes make clear that Governor Perry believes Obama is attempting to remove Christianity from the marketplace of ideas.
The truth is that no one appears to attacking Islamics and other religions in any concerted fashion.
Today in the news is a piece about cheerleaders in Texas being forced to stop using biblical quotes on their banners. All due to the complaint of a supposedly anonymous caller.
Interestingly, one of the banned quotes is the motto of the State of Ohio:
"With God All Things Are Possible"
He is right
To those who posted on the other thread, same as this one: I had it pulled. I had inadvertently added one of my comments to the Newmax article. I asked for the assistance of the sidebar moderator, and he let me know that the only way to fix something within an article itself is to start over, so that’s what I asked the mod to do.
Sorry for the lost posts. My fault.
I am all in for the 40 days of pray........going into the election.

What does “spiritual warfare” mean, in Rick Perry’s religious world? NAR?
As a non-religious man, my first thought was of Satan when I saw the words “spiritual warfare.” They can be seen as pretty hard-hitting words, IMO.
What does Perry mean by spiritual warfare?
As an evangelical Christian, Perry most definitely means what a huge majority of evangelicals would answer to your question: He specifically means Ephesians 6:1
“12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.”
That’s just my opinion, but I’d bet that Perry knows that verse almost by heart and has used it on many occasions.
God Bless Rick Perry!!
I was extremely disheartened that Rick didn’t do better in the primary process. I still beleive he would have made far and away the best president of any of those running.
He understands that the issues our nations faces are ultimately of a spiritual nature. He also understands state’s rights and the need to deconstruct and completely drain the DC swamp more clearly than anyone out there.
We need more people drawing this line in the sand.
“God says this, and leftists advocate the opposite. Choose this day whom you will serve.”
Same here. Perry was my first choice a year before the primary season even began.
Governor Rick . . you’ve got it right! If you can’t see the spiritual warfare behind this election, you are either ignorant or lost. The press does not have to come together to form a cabal to support Obama each morning. The principalities in high places lead them to oppose all that is right and good. I pray for Mitt each day. . that he will come to know the true Jesus Christ as Saviour and use the power of God to oppose these evil forces. He stands for many decent things but I just want him to know the true source of goodness and righteousness.
"Since BarackObama has forgotten how much he's added to the Natl debt for all our kids to pay off"
That will really be fun, trying to declare war against more and more “social media”.
GO PERRY!! Preach it - cut to the chase! This is a war between Good vs. evil!
God’s people vs the godless!
"Satan has only come to STEAL,/KILL and DESTROY; I have come to give them LIFE and more abundantly." John 10:10
Way to GO, PERRY - keep exposing evil and how it's using this admin to fulfill the reason it has come!
I agree with you. I continue to hope I will have the opportunity one day to cast a vote for him as president. He’s the leader this country needs.
God bless him.
Perry has been my choice all along precisely because he is the type of person who leads on his knees before God and the United States is in deep spiritual peril under an administration that is anti-Christianity, anti-Israel and pro-Islam.
Sadly, Perry will not be able to lead in this way as Commander in Chief but I pray he continues his bold Christian witness, setting an example for others.
I pray earnestly for Spiritual renewal across the land.
I’d rather Perry get serious in a separation of Texas and America debate. Parts of America are too far gone to heal. We need to cut the cord before the whole body is diseased (this may already be too late).
Not sure that will ever happen....but, we can dream, right? ;)
Barack Obama, who doesn't seem to believe in all-out-wars against jihadist followers of Islam, would probably see the need for a union army invasion of Texas in about 2 seconds.
Texan....bad.
Al Qaeda....Allah's warrior
Obama is Satan’s minion.
I’ve been thinking about, though I wouldn’t have a chance to implement: cars and vans, whatever, of Christians praying outside each voting place. I’m saying at least two persons per vehicle so there are “two or three gathered.” Gov. Perry is correct, this is war and it isn’t really feet on the ground needed—it’s prayer in the air.
Christians really need to axe the Democrat party for messin’ with them. The GOPe has the same agenda but not as much power.
We need more people drawing this line in the sand.
“God says this, and leftists advocate the opposite. Choose this day whom you will serve.”
Amen!!!!!!!!!

He would want to invade Texas, but I doubt he would.About the only thing he has the cajones to invade is someone’s privacy...
I don’t know if this is true, but what this poster suggests is rather terrifying:

Her face is also popping up in ads on many web sites that I’ve visited. It’s uncanny, almost every site I click on now has an Obama ad with Michelle front and center.
There is something bad going on here, no doubt.
Obama wants the welfare state and people easily manipulated by addictions, corruption and emotions.
For him it is all benefit for people to beg him if corruption and spiritual degradation is the norm.
It is indeed the crux of Obama’s behind the door campaign through legislation and sponsoring/appointing local, state and federal judges and lawyers to this cause. Truly, they are children of satan and of the flesh.
she is perceived as being more popular than odumbo, so they are using her a lot in ads.
I suppose that with Biden become “Gaffer Joe” that the Obama’s plan to run “Lawyer” Michelle as his follow-on.
I think that was always the Clinton’s plan until Bill screwed the pooch. (probably)
What does Perry mean by spiritual warfare?As an evangelical Christian, Perry most definitely means what a huge majority of evangelicals would answer to your question:
You might want to do some reading on the "new apostolic reformation".
I’ve listened to him pray. It is definitely southern and evangelical. He’s talking Eph 6:12. No doubt in my mind.
Perry is normally a Methodist but has attended SBC churches.
Thank you for sharing your insights, dear JudgemAll!
Indeed, the anti-Christ might practice taguia. He might be a Muslim - overtly or covertly.
Oh dearest sister in Christ, I earnestly join you in your prayer! I pray every day that our Lord will grant America spiritual renewal and renovation.
Perry was "my guy," too, and for the same reasons you give. Oh well....
IMHO, America's "real war" right now is pressed upon us by "powers and principalities." It's a battle for the hearts, minds, and souls of Americans, conducted mainly by the Father of Lies, the implacable enemy of Christ and His Body....
Ours is (or was) a nation whose understanding is that we are a people "under God," in Whom we trust. Historically the overwhelming majority of Americans has regarded God as Creator, Eternal Truth and Justicer. In recent times, any such understanding projected into the public square has been rebuked, scorned, increasingly deemed "fascist," "racist," or otherwise found "unfashionable" — according to the Spirit of the Age. (Which makes no judgments at all, preferring the state of moral relativism, which inevitably leads to chaos in souls and in the public square....)
But belief in God Creator established the core values of the freest, most peaceful and prosperous nation on earth.
Why would we want to swap this belief for "a mess of pottage?"
And so I fervently pray God to bless We the People of the United States of America, to grant spiritual renewal and discernment.
May God ever bless you, dearest sister in Christ, and all your dear ones!
I join in your earnest prayers for our country and I thank God for you.
