Would this have been your approach to sufferage?
Would this have been your approach to the legalized lenching of colored people? Clearly, as you stated, this is your approach to abortion. One more question...
Is this your approach to human trafficking? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwAht...eature=related
The point is... evil doesn't care if you stand there and look righteous. All evil wants you to do is... just stand there.

I believe that if we were to put our faith in god, instead of over worrying and then trying to solve them in our own way rather than doing as instructed and listening to the voice of god that we would've had much different outcomes during ALL of those situations. Instead we done them how we wanted to, here it is a hundred or so years later and we are still experiencing after effects of what has happened... so in essence the thought pattern and the principality behind all the things you mentioned are still here, just better swept under the rug... and frowned upon in the endorsement of them however what we done does not change the fact that countless lives were lost and a tragedy became of every bit of what you mentioned and still continues to wreak havoc.
Has anything you mentioned been resolved?
Is there still slavery, anti-semitism, and what have you?
Let the world, be run by the world. The law is for the lawless.
Let me ask you...
If all of us were to set back and do what we were told... would those problems have arisen in the first place?
The most common response would be, "That would be nice if everyone would, but you forget there is a satan and that he does cause those things to happen and there is evil in the world."
that being said... if thats the case.... you can correct as much as you want... but there will still be evil until its all said and done. So to go on some sort of crusade to try and stop everything... your going against an evil that has been here since before man took his first breath, knows every single little thing about our likenessess and our actions and our thought patterns (doesn't know our thoughts) and entire existence is devoted to destoying you because he hates you and anything about you. If that means buttering you up and being "nice" with things of the world to keep you blind to reality so be it The only way to fight a spiritual principality is with a spiritual principality. Show them where they are wrong using the word, not an awareness video.
It took one man to raise awareness and change the world forever, the same flesh and blood as he was, and the same spirit he had, has been offered to us...
It wasn't a military, or group of protestors. It was a living testimony and example.
Or have you forgotten..
John 14:12
"Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father."
That was Jesus, not me. Jesus just said you would perform greater works than himself, now do you believe him? Would we do this by picketing, protesting, starting wars, correcting? Or by following what he said, removing ourselves, yet being involved by bringing forth the word.
