None of us would have guessed that America would be a modern Sodom and Gomorrah in these final days of history. We knew that Obama was a Marxist/Socialist, and that was disturbing enough. We knew that he had close ties with Planned Parenthood, and that his voting record in the Senate was termed “left” of Ted Kennedy. That spoke volumes.
Now, in his final term, Obama is wreaking havoc with our country and specifically with our children. I read recently, that he threatened to cut school lunch funding if schools did not comply with his transgender program. Now I see what this transgender program is all about, and it is revolting and despicable.
America does not appear in End Times prophecy, and it is now very clear to us why this is so. I believe that America will be utterly destroyed or conquered by a foe. If Yellowstone blows, then half of our country will be devastated. If the presence of ISIS is as great as is being reported, we will begin to see mass murders and beheadings. Jade Helm 15, which is a “tactical exercise” for the military in seven states, just might be a drill on instating Martial Law.
Can we expect anything different from the Lord? Our country has turned its back on Him. It grieves me to the point of tears. I have published the article on the transgender program from Fox News in its entirety, so that you will understand just how egregious this agenda really is. It doesn’t even seem real. It seems more like a plot from a very off the wall novel. It IS real folks. We need to get on our knees before God.
FROM FOX NEWS:
“One of the nation’s largest public school systems is preparing to include gender identity to its classroom curriculum, including lessons on sexual fluidity and spectrum – the idea that there’s no such thing as 100 percent boys or 100 percent girls.
Fairfax County Public Schools released a report recommending changes to their family life curriculum for grades 7 through 12. The changes, which critics call radical gender ideology, will be formally introduced next week.
“The larger picture is this is really an attack on nature itself – the created order,” said Peter Sprigg of the Family Research Council.
“Human beings are created male and female. But the current transgender ideology goes way beyond that. They’re telling us you can be both genders, you can be no gender; you can be a gender that you make up for yourself. And we’re supposed to affirm all of it.”
The plan calls for teaching seventh graders about transgenderism and tenth graders about the concept that sexuality is a broader spectrum --- but it sure smells like unadulterated sex indoctrination.
Get a load of what the kids are going to be learning in middle school:
“Students will be provided definitions for sexual orientation terms heterosexuality, homosexuality and bisexuality; and the gender identity term transgender,” the district’s recommendations state. “Emphasis will be placed on recognizing that everyone is experiencing changes and the role of respectful, inclusive language in promoting an environment free of bias and discrimination.”
Eighth graders will be taught that individual identity “occurs over a lifetime and includes the component of sexual orientation and gender identity.”
“Individual identity will also be described as having four parts – biological gender, gender identity (includes transgender), gender role, and sexual orientation (includes heterosexual, bisexual, and homosexual).”
The district will also introduce young teenagers to the “concept that sexuality is a broader spectrum.” By tenth grade, they will be taught that one’s sexuality “develops throughout a lifetime.”
“Emphasis will be placed on an understanding that there is a broader, boundless, and fluid spectrum of sexuality that is developed throughout a lifetime,” the document states. “Sexual orientation and gender identity terms will be discussed with focus on appreciation for individual differences.”
As you might imagine – parents are freaking out.
“Parents need to protect their kids from this assault,” said Andrea Lafferty, president of Traditional Values Coalition. “Who could imagine that we are in this place today – but we are.”
Last week, the school board voted to include gender identity in the district’s nondiscrimination policy – a decision that was strongly opposed by parents.
Lafferty, who led the opposition to the nondiscrimination policy, warned that the district is moving towards the deconstruction of gender.
“At the end of this is the deconstruction of gender - absolutely,” she told me. “The majority of people pushing (this) are not saying that – but that clearly is the motivation.”
School Board spokesman John Torre told the Washington Times the proposed curriculum changes have nothing to do with last week’s vote to allow boys who identity as girls to use the bathrooms and locker rooms of their choice.
He would have us believe it was purely coincidental.
To make matters worse, Lafferty contends parents will not be able to opt their children out of the classes because the lessons will be a part of the mandatory health curriculum.
However, Torre told me that parents will indeed be able to opt out of those classes “including the sexual orientation and gender identity lessons.”
I must confess that I’m a bit old school on sex education. I believe that God created male and female. My reading of the Bible does not indicate there were dozens of other options.
“They are not being forthright with the information,” Lafferty said. “They are not telling people the truth. They are bullying parents. They are intimidating and they are threatening.”
However, I’m always open to learning new things – so I asked the school district to provide me with the textbooks and scientific data they will be using to instruct the children that there are dozens and dozens of possible genders.
Here’s the reply I received from Torre:
“Lessons have not been developed for the proposed lesson objectives,” he stated. “Because of the need to develop lessons, the proposed objectives would not be implemented until fall 2016.”
In other words – they don’t have a clue.
And the Family Research Council’s Sprigg said there’s a pretty good reason why they can’t produce a textbook about fluidity.
“It’s an ideological concept,” he told me. “It’s not a scientific one.”
He warned that Fairfax County’s planned curriculum could be harmful to students.
“It’s only going to create more confusion in the minds of young people who don’t need any further confusion about sexual identity,” he said.
The board will introduce the changes on May 21. Lafferty said she hopes parents will turn out in force to voice their objections.” [1]
Brethren, please understand that these things are happening for a specific reason. The government wants to have solid cases against Christians, when we begin to speak out against these vile and unbiblical teachings. We will then be accused of "hate speech", and many of us will most likely go to jail.
Those of us who know the Lord and have discernment, knew that Obama was a very dangerous man. We tried to warn those around us, and we were called racists.
“When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; but when a wicked man rules, the people groan.” (Proverbs 29:2)
PLEASE COME SOON LORD JESUS!

The battle this nation is in right now is not Political. Is is Spiritual.
I guessed it long ago. Seriously, what is the end result of 200 million sinners who vote? It ain't good.
Rome survived Caligula and Nero.
I am not sure the U.S. will survive Obama.
Obama has help from our worthless, back stabbing, POS republicOns.
As the devil who “knows he only has a short time” the assaults of Barack will grow.
There probably is enough Christendom in the country to rebound, but it has become soft and flabby, content to ride on icons. Hey ain’t this the wonderful city on a hill? That God is obligated to bless? Well no it isn’t. Not when the salt is unsalty.
And the salt that is missing is NOT finger-wagging at others’ sins — it is the story of personal redemption. It’s excellent that past drunks and thieves are going to Christ to be made new, but how about “respectable” people who really aren’t any more respectable than the drunks and thieves when it comes to heaven’s standards?
Look at yourself in God’s mirror and you will be shocked to see worthless too. God cares about a scope of things that goes far, far beyond politics.
Our plunge into the abyss seems to be accelerating.
FWIW, Franklin Graham is slated to hit all 50 states next year in an attempt to turn this country back to God. Because, as you say, the battle is spiritual.
I try to remain hopeful we will once again be a Godly nation. But lately I’ve been looking up, if you get my meaning.
..”Rome survived Caligula and Nero”.....
The U.S. absorbs more than 800 ‘Somali’ refugees per month...1000 ‘Syrian’ Refugees and countless others coming here....Most of the refugees, in the Middle East, Africa and Asia, are “hand-selected by the U.N.” for assignment to the U.S.
The Roman Empire, allowed unlimited immigration by the various populations they had conquered and also massive numbers of foreign slaves were brought into the city. There were very few real Romans left in Rome when it fell to the barbarians. There was no one left to defend the city, it was sacked and burned.
To look up now is only to restore the attitude that God wished had been there all the time.
A nation that knows it has no hope beyond the mercy and grace of God is one that will get such mercy and grace.
Perhaps it is largely that people are now bold to act out what was already going on in their heads without check.
Always has been.
But the Dugga son is evil?
The Lord has a way of putting the outrage du jour in perspective mighty quick.
Actually, Rome did not survive.
We will survive Jug Ears, we have faced tougher foes and won, he will end up on the “ash heap of history” as a bad choice that caused a hard swing to the right.
If it ain’t a “hard swing to the LORD” it will be in vain
I have seen things I never dreamed would be seen in this nation.
I have seen America descend into an open sewer.
It didn’t just happen. It was made to happen.
People left their doors open to the devil.
It absolutely is. Almost every true Christian leader and Evangelist I respect has stated the same thing.
As Christ warned, the birth pangs are getting more severe and closer together.
Judgment is coming to America, and the world.
Here is a picture from a "worship service" at the Metro New York (ELCA) Syno's Assembly
June is "pride month".
Coincidence?
As the writer of the article states, it is almost unbelievable how far we have fallen, and how quickly.
Looking back, even to the 60's and 70's of my youth, the nation only seemed to be holding together more out of our Judeo-Christian tradition than in a super majority of real believers and obedience to Almighty God.
The latest surveys have said that Christianity has dwindled 8% in the US since 2007, however - I truly believe that America had far, far more "nominal" Christians than real Christians.
Now persecution has come to America. Members of military have been persecuted for being Christians. Bakers, shop owners, and businesses have persecuted.
Very soon, tax exempt status for Christian churches will be revoked, and pastors who preach the Word of God will be arrested and thrown into jail with murderers and rapists.
