Bravo for Brett. Jesus Christ! Now, I have said it too. Proud that he LIVES his Christianity and is not ashamed to be a follower of Christ. No apologies, no regrets, Brett.
God bless you for your boldness.
I have to agree. We are out of room to compromise, or even retreat. I do not view the collectivists as opponents, they are enemies, and their intent is to liquidate what they cannot intimidate. They are an existential threat.
Brit was expressing his opinion, which is fine and I find it funny that a lot of libs demean FOX news as nothing but “Opinion Shows” yet they scream bloody murder if someone expresses their opinion on FOX if it upsets their Atheistic PC mindset.
Secondly, I might add that my understanding is that Woods is not a actively participating Buddhist. He just finds the religion interesting and I suppose that is because he finds it less judgmental or threatening to him on a personal level. It makes sense now.
"He further said: The most controversial two words you can ever utter in a public space are Jesus Christ. When asked to speculate about the reasons for the medias vitriolic response to Christianity and the name of Jesus, Mr. Hume replied: I think it is true that for people who are not Christian, Christianity makes a fairly extravagant claim which is that the Son of God God made Flesh came into this world, lived, suffered terribly, and died for the remission of our sins, and then rose again. This is a huge supernatural event, and a lot of people donthave a lot of trouble believing it. But if you do purport to believe it, the implications are pretty staggering. "
Well as I am not suprised to hear this, still at the same time I am just floored this is where things are headed, everything our founding fathers stood for, believed in, based on, is almost dead, it's pretty much like the devil himself is harder at work more now than ever.
I can only speak for me but this guy will end up doing one of these,before everything said and done.
MORE IS COMING.
JESUS SAID HE CAME TO DIVIDE.

Luke 12:51-59 (King James Version)
“51. Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division:
52. For from henceforth there shall be five in one house divided, three against two, and two against three.
53. The father shall be divided against the son, and the son against the father; the mother against the daughter, and the daughter against the mother; the mother in law against her daughter in law, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
54. And he said also to the people, When ye see a cloud rise out of the west, straightway ye say, There cometh a shower; and so it is.
55. And when ye see the south wind blow, ye say, There will be heat; and it cometh to pass.
56. Ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky and of the earth; but how is it that ye do not discern this time?
57.Yea, and why even of yourselves judge ye not what is right?
58. When thou goest with thine adversary to the magistrate, as thou art in the way, give diligence that thou mayest be delivered from him; lest he hale thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and the officer cast thee into prison.
59. I tell thee, thou shalt not depart thence, till thou hast paid the very last mite.”

Jesus said a number of things that are not so well discussed. We do well to read and reread His Word.
God help us in our day in Jesus name, amen.
I tend to think that Brit spoke out of his own experience at the death of his son, and how his own faith and turning to Jesus Christ was his salvation. No one who begins from a point of having no faith, and who has never faced a major emotional crisis of that magnitude, can begin to understand what he was saying.
Sorry.
That fact that this is newsworthy only demonstrates how far the secular and the vulgar have gone to drive the Word of God from the public space. I’ve changed my tagline to display Brit Hume’s statement.
——that sides are being picked before the big game.——
Yes Indeed!
Birth certificate?
Everyone who cares about family, morals, honesty, integrity and moral decay in America, should care about the Tiger Woods situation.
Tiger Woods is a whore-monger who is good at hitting a little white ball into a cup: nothing more, nothing less.
Millions of Americans and people around the world have held him in high esteem because he can hit a little white ball better than anyone else and has made millions of dollars doing so. In reality, he is a wickedly sinful man who has massive personal issues that not only affect himself and his life but the lives of his entire family and the community at large. Given his sexually promiscuous lifestyle there is no telling what kind of diseases he has contracted and possibly infected his wife or others with.
He has destroyed his life and reputation... we should care.
Also, if you or I did what he has been doing and had gotten caught doing so, we would be in prison or had our names and faces plastered all over the police blotter reports as sexual "Johns". But unlike Woods, we are not one of the "beautiful people".
My hope and prayer is that Mr. Woods repents of his sin and comes to a saving faith in the Lord Jesus Christ before it is eternally too late because only the Lord Jesus Christ alone can deliver him from his sinful and deadly lifestyle and give him eternal life.
Brit did the right thing..I for one am very proud of him..
Isn't Tiger Woods mother a Buddist?I remember my house maid in Korea not eating meat so she could take it for an offering to the Buddha i though that Buddha was fat enough and should go on a diet so I told her not to waste her money and she would eat the meat herself..Funny she looked into the Christian church there..Rev Moon was the minister..
Excellent way to put it.
Great post! I have often wondered what motivates the lost souls in our world. Ever hear the description “zombie”? Don’t laugh, the world is full of the walking dead.
While the reaction to Mr. Hume’s remarks has been at once both predictable and appalling, and I agree Mr. Hume that turning to Christ has immeasurable benefits, and would wish for the sake of his soul’s salvation that Mr. Woods would take his advice, I would point out that Mr. Woods’ moral and marital difficulties hardly suggest that he is pursuing the Buddhist path of renunciation of desire and right mindfulness.
Were he a good Buddhist, Mr. Woods’ marriage would still be intact.
Keep in mind that a lot of people that have ridiculed Christianity have become Christians themselves. Paul laughed at Christians being stoned to death....well, we all know what happened to him. In my opinion the ridiculers are a lot more likely to become Christian than those that are apathetic. The ridiculers are interested, they are taken by the story which they find ridiculous but they are still taken by it and interested. In this way Christ gets his foot in the door.
“Obama’s fault”
Jesus Christ, people, you can’t say Jesus Christ.
