Federal courts have ruled that hard-core pornography is not protected free speech and can be prosecuted.
It is always a blessing when someone steps out in the faith and challenges immorality and calling immorality for what it is plain and clear. The porn industry is one of the sickest forms of human degradation and they have the gall to compare porn with art? This money making perverted industry which once had myself at one time in its claws needs to be truly outlawed just as much as child porn. Where do you think child porn comes from? Yes, as you guessed the Porn Industry. It still amazes me how on earth does the Constitution and the Bill of Rights support such a sick minded industry that is out to keep perverts and molesters in bondage to their bondage? It truly does not because if you truly look at the Constitution it truly was created for a moral society under OUR Creator which also means a "Governed by God" society and this is what truly our fore fathers had in mind except for a few ale drinking drunks and promiscuous immoral women who wanted prostitution legal which caught the eye of some immoral politicians. That is why mostly prostitution was illegal and still is in most states and should never ever be legal. Immorality of all kinds should be outlawed. God took sexual immorality so serious that in the Book of Leviticus they were to be put to death or stoned to death. And God has never changed, for HE is still the same God. That why HE still warns us very Loudly every second;
Revelation 21:8 (Amplified Bible)
But as for the cowards and the ignoble and the contemptible and the cravenly lacking in courage and the cowardly submissive, and as for the unbelieving and faithless, and as for the depraved and defiled with abominations, and as for murderers and the lewd and adulterous and the practicers of magic arts and the idolaters (those who give supreme devotion to anyone or anything other than God) and all liars (those who knowingly convey untruth by word or deed)--[all of these shall have] their part in the lake that blazes with fire and brimstone. This is the second death
The porn industry has continued to produce more rapist, child molestation, sexual predators of all kinds from its continuing industry and as well is one of this countries promoters of Abortion which is truly MURDER and sexually transmitted diseases that have destroyed millions. This industry has proven to be a crime of its own and should be put to death immediately.
Repentance to JESUS is also a Crucial task that needs to be recognized for all those involved with this bondage life ending immorality that leads to the very pit of eternal death of God's hellfire that is so deserved for those who willingly do not repent of this hell deserving behavior. I pray people actually see how God truly is in all HIS beauty and that they see just How satisfying HE truly is to want to flee sexual immorality and enjoy HIM forever.
In conclusion, it is truly an encouraging blessing when we are joined together in the Body, Preaching, standing, and warning our nation to turn from its wickedness and immoral compromises to at least delay God's very judgments that are truly coming upon all that practice immorality of all sorts quickly. May HE delay so more of those HE calls out of worldliness become saved.

Christian attorney pushes for prosecution of hard-core porn
Allie Martin - OneNewsNow - 2/4/2008 6:00:00 AM
Pro-family attorney Pat Trueman says hard-core pornography isn't free speech and should be prosecuted by the U.S. Department of Justice.
Trueman, who is with the Alliance Defense Fund, says it appears President George W. Bush's administration is not making a priority out of prosecuting porn. In fact, Trueman notes that last fall he was part of a group of pro-family leaders who requested a meeting with new Attorney General Michael Mukasey. So far, he says, there has been no reply from the attorney general's office.
"We've got a group of people who are calling the Justice Department, writing letters," says Trueman. "This is an all-out battle to get something done because the pornographers are in an all-out battle [themselves] to capture the hearts and souls of Americans."
The Christian attorney admits he is puzzled why law enforcement officers do not prosecute porn distributors and producers -- but being a former DOJ official himself, he offers this explanation.
"The Justice Department always has a host of issues that they have to work on," he says, "but the reality is the issues that are important to them will get the attention. [So] since the president has refused to meet with anyone on this issue ... won't issue any proclamations on the issue of pornography, [and] has shown no leadership whatsoever, I think the Justice Department feels safe in doing nothing."
According to Trueman, federal courts have ruled that hard-core pornography is not protected free speech and can be prosecuted.

Have we lost the True Gospel?
But even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be accursed. - Galatians 1:8
This Article below seems to be correct in its analysis of today and that most Christians are asleep to this fact. Why are we allowing this to happen? I stand on we must be prepared even in our churches and make sure we are thorough in True Doctrine not plagued by man centered fallacy and call it out when it presents itself. I agree with the Article that we all do a exhaustive study on Romans 6, picking it apart verse by verse, word by word, and meditating on it until we come to a clear understanding of it and allow God's Word to speak at face value alone Sola Scriptura. We do not even teach any Reformed Catechism in Adult or child Sun School such as the Hidelburg, Westminister shorter and larger, the Confessions of our faith. For centuries the true Church has always taught these evident truths and now they are lost to the postmodern world ideology. Today they are all a bunch of games and not serious Bible studies with our Creeds of faith with God Word to stand in defense of our faith with confidence. Even our pastor and professors have not been taught in this wonderful confidence that the Church exhaustively made sure with these confessions there would be no difficulty in understand these basic truths so we can stand on Christ's solid foundation. We must ask ourselves is it all about ourselves or all about HIM alone.
One True Solid Truth is that GOD is the Gospel and His ways are never our way.
May we all flee from being lukewarm permanently from this day forth and Enjoy HIM forever starting right now and in our studies always make sure to continue to search the Scriptures ridding ourselves of lazy study practices too. It should always be complete JOY when studying God's Word. For He alone should be our treasure and Joy above everything alone and we should be excited to spend time with HIM.

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].
Ephesians 6:12 KJV
"WE'VE LOST THE GOSPEL"
by Andrew Strom.
-July 4, 2006.
There is no tragedy in the world worse than this - the church losing the gospel. We could have a hundred terrorist attacks, or earthquakes, or hurricanes, and it would still not outweigh the tragedy of this one thing - WE HAVE LOST THE GOSPEL. Nothing can compare to this disaster - nothing.
For when you lose the gospel, you lose salvation. People are actually no longer becoming saved. (Remember, Paul said that the gospel is the "POWER OF GOD unto salvation"). And when people are no longer truly becoming saved, you also lose the church. For no true gospel = no true church.
People will tell me that I am being too "drastic". Well, I want to say to you that I am not being drastic enough. In fact, if I were to shout through 1000 megaphones directly into your ears, it would not be possible for me to overemphasize just how disastrous and awful and horrific it is that our backslidden Western church today has - to all intents and purposes - lost its gospel. And in doing so it has lost its very reason for being.
We tell everybody that all they need to do is say a little rote prayer accepting Jesus as their "personal savior". Tell me, where is such a thing in Scripture? Does such a thing even come close to existing? Can you recall even ONE person doing such a thing to become a Christian in the Bible? Did any of the Apostles in Acts ever say to someone, "Just repeat this little prayer after me"? Or "Quietly slip up your hand - no need for anyone to see"? Can you remember ANYONE in Scripture doing anything like that?
No, you can't. That is because nobody ever did. It is all a modern fabrication - a complete invention. -This is no salvation at all. We act like people can safely forget about CONVICTION of sin and DEEP REPENTANCE and WATER-BAPTISM and getting FILLED with the Holy Spirit. -Just "optional extras", eh? But look at 'Acts' and tell me - was there ever such a thing as real Christianity with- out these things? And what about getting a CLEAN CONSCIENCE (-washed in the blood) and KEEPING IT CLEAN? Are we ever told how to walk in THAT today?? -To actually "walk" in the washing of the blood of Jesus? To be clean, to be utterly "Clean", to be EVERY WHIT CLEAN?? (-The most important thing in the world). Where is this in our gospel? Where is the transformed life? Where is the "FREEDOM" from sin?
We have lost it all. Our people very rarely repent. They often go for years without baptism (-meaning, according to Romans 6, that their "old man" is not yet dead - and so they simply cannot live a new life in Christ). Read Romans 6 sometime and ask yourself this question- "If I have not been baptized, then is my old life "buried" with Christ or not? Is my 'old man' dead or not?" -This is why the apostles always baptized people RIGHT AWAY.
And then we often fail to get people 'FILLED' with the Spirit straight away too - let alone "walking" in the Spirit. Tell me, how are we supposed to have 'HOLINESS' if we have not even been filled with the "HOLY" Spirit? Why do you think that the apostles always made sure that people became Spirit-filled RIGHT AWAY??
Most of us do not even have "Day One" Christianity as it was in the Bible. We have lost the gospel and we don't even know it. We have invented a gospel of 'convenience', a gospel without the cross, a gospel without holiness or the power to live a Christian life. -A gospel that shows no-one how to get a CLEAN CONSCIENCE or how to WALK IN IT. I want to say to you that such a gospel is NO GOSPEL AT ALL. And we should be ashamed of ourselves for preaching such a travesty.
No wonder today's church is lukewarm! The gospel is the building block upon which everything else is built. Without it we have nothing - literally nothing. It affects all that we do and all that we are. To lose it is simply the worst disaster imaginable. So how on earth can we get it back?
Well, we have spoken about "Revival" many times on this site. But what a lot of people don't realize is that the 'RETURN OF THE GOSPEL' was often the key that brought about the Great Awakenings - the GOSPEL being restored and preached in power. The longest-lasting Revivals always involved the "RETURN OF THE GOSPEL". That is precisely what was happening with the preaching of Wesley, Finney, Whitefield, etc. And it has to happen again today!
So "Revival" to me is far more than just a fleeting visitation. It is to be the long-lasting restoration of the true gospel - and thus the true church also. If we want true Christianity restored today, we must first see THE GOSPEL restored. It is the most important key to it all. O God, send such a Revival! BRING BACK THE GOSPEL and those who will PREACH IT! O God, we cry out to you in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.
