Amos 8
King James Version (KJV)
8 Thus hath the Lord God shewed unto me: and behold a basket of summer fruit.
2 And he said, Amos, what seest thou? And I said, A basket of summer fruit. Then said the Lord unto me, The end is come upon my people of Israel; I will not again pass by them any more.
3 And the songs of the temple shall be howlings in that day, saith the Lord God: there shall be many dead bodies in every place; they shall cast them forth with silence.
4 Hear this, O ye that swallow up the needy, even to make the poor of the land to fail,
5 Saying, When will the new moon be gone, that we may sell corn? and the sabbath, that we may set forth wheat, making the ephah small, and the shekel great, and falsifying the balances by deceit?
6 That we may buy the poor for silver, and the needy for a pair of shoes; yea, and sell the refuse of the wheat?
7 The Lord hath sworn by the excellency of Jacob, Surely I will never forget any of their works.
8 Shall not the land tremble for this, and every one mourn that dwelleth therein? and it shall rise up wholly as a flood; and it shall be cast out and drowned, as by the flood of Egypt.
9 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord God, that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the clear day:
10 And I will turn your feasts into mourning, and all your songs into lamentation; and I will bring up sackcloth upon all loins, and baldness upon every head; and I will make it as the mourning of an only son, and the end thereof as a bitter day.
11 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord:
12 And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the Lord, and shall not find it.
13 In that day shall the fair virgins and young men faint for thirst.
14 They that swear by the sin of Samaria, and say, Thy god, O Dan, liveth; and, The manner of Beersheba liveth; even they shall fall, and never rise up again.

Tea Party 10-12-13 Cheyenne, WY
Hill pumps up tea party rally at Capitol
By James Chilton
jchilton@wyomingnews.com
http://www.wyomingnews.com/articles/2013/10/13/news/01top_10-13-13.txt
CHEYENNE -- A large crowd gathered at the Wyoming State Capitol on Saturday afternoon to send a message of support to the conservative tea party movement.
The event's organizer, Laramie County Commissioner M. Lee Hasenauer, estimated the initial crowd at 300 people, who cheered on nearly a dozen speakers.
"Everybody thinks the tea party's over," Hasenauer said. "Everyone say it with me: The tea party is alive and well."
Each speaker urged the crowd to unite against what they saw as tyranny manifested in a wide variety of forms, from implementation of the Affordable Care Act to Common Core educational standards to attempts at curbing gun ownership rights.
But that tyranny, many speakers noted, was not solely the domain of the Democratic leadership in Washington, D.C. n though President Barack Obama was hardly exempt from Saturday’s excoriations.
Rather, some of the most pointed criticism was leveled at members of Wyoming’s Republican establishment, with state Superintendent of Public Instruction Cindy Hill leading the clarion call for change in the Capitol.
After singing along to a recording of Lee Greenwood’s “God Bless the USA,” Hill, who is running for fellow Republican Gov. Matt Mead’s seat in 2014, said Americans had had enough of corruption and petty partisan politics in their government, adding that there were only a few elected officials who had the “moral clarity to see through” that.
“They are facing head-on some of the most vile and contemptible attacks n you’ve seen them and you’ve heard them n from the establishment, from career politicians from within their own party,” Hill said, turning to her own battle against Mead and the Wyoming Legislature, which stripped her of most of her duties earlier this year.
“I know about it,” Hill said. “But I make a personal pledge to you: The establishment may try to destroy or marginalize me. They try in vain.”
And while she was deeply concerned with what she called the “federalization” of education in Wyoming through measures like the Common Core, Hill said politicians in Washington weren’t the only ones pushing for such measures.
“It’s not just in D.C., everyone, it’s right here in our backyard,” Hill said to applause.
“Men and women (are) using government not for the good of the people, but using the machinery of the state government not only to destroy political opponents … but to take away your vote, and to make our state government less and less accessible and accountable to the people.”
“They don’t like it when I talk about state government, but I’m not going to stop,” she added. “We have to remind those in power of those first seven words (of the state Constitution): ‘All power is inherent in the people!’”
Saturday’s rally was also attended by Wyoming Constitution Party Chairwoman Jennifer Young, who had led an unsuccessful petition drive to reverse the legislation that stripped Hill of most of her duties. Noting that she had “big news” for the crowd, Hasenauer turned the podium over to Young who announced her intention to run against Republican Secretary of State Max Maxfield.
“As many of you are tired of hearing about what the problem is and not much about a solution until Ms. Hill came along, I have committed to doing something to be part of the solution,” Young said. “Once I finish holding Max Maxfield accountable for the flaws in the petition process, I’m going for his job.”
Local conservative radio host John Frentheway followed Young’s announcement by paraphrasing Winston Churchill’s call for “Victory at all costs … for without victory, there is no survival,” and urging more tea party members to spread their message and take their fight to the ballot box.
“I hate to say it, but it’s true: we’ve got two years to turn the tide, folks,” Frentheway said. “And if we don’t have it turned in two years, I don’t know what to tell you except you’d better be sure you’ve got a good relationship with God.”

Rick Joyner, Televangelist And Pastor, Wants A Military Takeover Of The U.S. Government
http://www.trunews.com/rick-joyner-televangelist-pastor-wants-military-takeover-u-s-government/
No matter how bad things are in Washington, D.C., right now, most people would probably agree that a military takeover of the federal government wouldn’t improve the situation.
But not televangelist Rick Joyner.
While on the show “Prophetic Perspective on Current Events” on MorningStar TV on Monday, the notoriously conservative pastor implored God to save America from being wiped out by the nefarious “forces” that are “at work right now to undermine and destroy the republic.”
“Raise up those who will save us,” Joyner said. “Because the system is so broken… I believe our only hope is military takeover. Martial law.”
Joyner seems to genuinely believe the United States is on the brink of annihilation. Earlier in the segment, he warns that the country “may not last through [President Barack] Obama’s second

Why Pastors Won’t Take A Stand
http://chuckbaldwinlive.com/Articles/tabid/109/ID/1074/Why-Pastors-Wont-Take-A-Stand.aspx
I am constantly asked, “Chuck, why don’t pastors take a stand and speak out?” I’ve been a pastor most of my adult life. I believe I am qualified to answer that question. Here is the stark reality: the vast majority of pastors today are “success” oriented. Beginning in Bible College or seminary, and continuing throughout a pastor’s ministerial life, the emphasis is success. And that means church growth, larger congregations, bigger buildings, bigger offerings, burgeoning statistics, greater notoriety, denominational praise, invitations to speak at conferences, applause from fellow ministers, not to mention the financial perks and benefits that come with pastoring a “successful” church.
And the way to learn how to build a successful church is to learn from those who have done it. Pastors regularly attend church growth conferences to learn from the “big” church pastors on how it’s done. They purchase books, magazines, newsletters, etc., that are all geared towards telling pastors how to build a successful church. They are constantly being schooled in the latest and greatest “how to” strategies of church growth and success. This usually entails more and more sophisticated programs, music, sound, lighting, atmosphere, classes, seminars, organization, etc. Everything, and I mean everything, is geared toward success as described in the aforementioned paragraph.
Most pastors today are in reality not spiritual shepherds as much as they are corporate CEOs. The same mentality, philosophy, and strategy that drive corporate boardrooms also drive the boardrooms of modern churches--to a tee. Pastors act like CEOs, dress like CEOs, talk like CEOs, manage like CEOs, and think like CEOs.
Dare I say that even the way pastors and churches cater, and “reach out,” and “minister,” etc., has mostly to do with “good business.” Church members are babied and pacified and stroked and petted and fawned-over because it is “good business.” Today’s Christians are so spoiled and petted that any dereliction or lack of attention by a pastor, church, or staff usually results in them “moving their letter” down the street to a place that will more readily cater to their temperamental demands.
Have you not noticed how most pastors spiritualize away the great examples of Bible heroism and defiance against tyranny and despotism? Ask them point blank about Daniel and the lion’s den or the three Hebrew children in the burning fiery furnace or Queen Esther or scores and scores of other acts of defiance lauded in Holy Writ and they will say, “That was another time.” Or, they might say, “This shows God’s great deliverance and protection.” But the overriding principle that drove the great heroes of the faith to challenge and defy evil government is never even acknowledged, much less addressed.
The great lesson of the above-mentioned heroes and heroines is not that God delivered them, because many of them were NOT delivered. As Paul notes in Hebrews 11: “Others were tortured, not accepting deliverance…And others had trial of cruel mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment: they were stoned, they were sawn asunder, were tempted, were slain with the sword: they wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, tormented…they wandered in deserts, and in mountains, and in caves of the earth.” (Hebrews 11:35-38 KJV). The great lesson of the above-mentioned heroes and heroines is their willingness to defy evil authority--regardless of outcome. Listen to the three Hebrew children:
“Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we are not careful to answer thee in this matter. If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king. But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden calf which thou hast set up.” (Daniel 3:16-18 KJV)
These men knew that God COULD deliver them, but they did not know if He WOULD deliver them. And to them, it didn’t matter: they were willing to defy the tyranny of King Nebuchadnezzar regardless. They were not going to bow to the unlawful, illegitimate authority of the state (in whatever form it appeared). That is the glaring lesson of every single one of these great stories of defiance.
Furthermore, most pastors and teachers absolutely refuse to tell the truth of Hebrews 11:34: “[They] waxed valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens.” This Biblical passage lauds the courage of past believers who took up the sword against tyrants and despots. In the same breath that Paul extolled the sacrifice of believers who were willing to die for their faith, he also extolled the bravery of believers who were willing to fight for their faith. But you NEVER hear that from the vast majority of pastors today.
If you hear any mention of, say, America’s Founding Fathers from today’s pastors, it is that the founders were wrong, that they violated Romans 13, that God did not lead them to declare independence and revolt against the British Crown. Such is the ignorance and cowardice of today’s ministers.
And while we are on the subject, the misinterpretation of Romans 13 is one of the chief reasons why most pastors and churches are so utterly indifferent or nonplussed about resisting evil government. This is why my son and I coauthored the book, “Romans 13: The True Meaning of Submission.” I encourage readers to get this book and share it with as many of your Christian friends as possible. In the book, Tim and prove from the entire Bible--including Romans 13--that nowhere does God expect (much less demand) believers to submit to evil, wicked authority.
Order the Romans 13 book here:
Romans 13 Truth
Tim (a constitutional attorney) and I coauthored a second book that is also relevant to this discussion. It is called, “To Keep or Not To Keep: Why Christians Should Not Give Up Their Guns.” This book searches the entire Bible and conclusively proves that self-defense is not only a God-ordained right; it is a God-ordained DUTY--and that Christians are totally justified in NOT surrendering their means of self-defense to any civil authority.
Order “To Keep or Not To Keep: Why Christians Should Not Give Up Their Guns” here:
Keep Your Arms
The fact is that all of these great Bible stories of lawful, God-ordained defiance of unjust authority are totally ignored by the vast majority of today’s pastors and churches. None of these great Bible truths are made relevant to attempted acts of tyranny in today’s America. None of them.
Again, it is all about success. To the average pastor, nothing is as anathema as controversy. And nothing is more controversial than politics. Therefore, pastors are taught to avoid politics like the plague. Of course, they won’t tell you that the controversial nature of politics is the reason they avoid it; they will tell you that “God has not called me to get involved in politics,” or, “I’m trying to build a church,” or, “That’s not our mission,” or any number of other pious-sounding clichés. But the reality is they are trying to be successful, and they believe controversy hinders success.
That’s also why you seldom, if ever, hear “hard” sermons from the modern pulpit--even though that is exactly the kind of sermons that Jesus Himself preached. (See John 6:60) To the success-driven, religious CEO, people must always feel good; they must be permanently ensconced in their comfort zone; and they must never be rebuked or informed of misconduct or irresponsibility. And as far as freedom goes, the shallowness of the average pulpit refuses to acknowledge the responsibility of the church to do anything to preserve it. All they talk about is praying for your political leaders and being good little subjects of the state.
Plus, don’t forget that most churches are up to their eyeballs in debt. Therefore, pastors are afraid if they offend people offerings will go down and they might not be able to pay for all of those fancy buildings and exorbitant staff--not to mention their own personal financial perks might be endangered.
And, yes, I must also add that the 501c3 non-profit tax-exempt status most churches operate under poses a serious intimidation against the pastor and church, which keeps them from taking a stand or speaking out on issues that might be construed as political.
But here is the bottom line: as long as Christians in the pews continue to attend and financially support these stand-for-nothing churches, the churches will continue to languish in their indifference. After all, by the attendance and offerings of all of these people in the pews, pastors are being continually convinced that everything they have been taught is working: their churches are successful.
The ONLY WAY Christians can start making a difference in their country is to GET OUT of these clueless, cowardly churches and find a pastor who is not afraid to be politically-incorrect, who is not afraid to preach and teach the Biblical principles of liberty, and who is not afraid to preach and teach the principles of righteous defiance against any act of tyranny. Find a pastor who is not trying to be successful. You don’t need a successful pastor; you need a truthful pastor.
But this means that people in the pews must truly WANT to be in a church that takes a stand, doesn’t it? We have the kind of pastors and churches that we are willing to support. If that’s the case, Christians should stop complaining about the indifference of their pastors and simply accept the imminent slavery to which they are being led.
