Recently North Carolina and Mississippi passed religious liberty bills and signed them into law. The bills are designed in part to ensure that men cannot go into women’s bathrooms or locker rooms, and vice versa. So immediately the radical LGBT community rallied their powerful machine and turned it into a civil rights issue, stating that if one simply identifies their gender as being male or female then they can go into the bathroom of their choice.
Thus they have successfully changed the essence of the true intent of the law from one of religious liberty and decency, to one of discrimination against transgender people.
One hundred companies including Levi Strauss, Starbucks, Pay Pal, the NFL and others have declared that they won’t do business in these states and of course the liberal media and an army of protestors are jumping on board to try and force these states to rescind the legislation.
They have spun the issue to be about poor little abused homosexual people who according to the CDC comprise just 2.6% of our population and transgender folks who are too small of a percentile to even register. Never mind the rights of the majority of folks who don’t want men to go into women’s bathrooms.
So what are those in the majority, the church, and others who don’t want their wives, daughters, and granddaughters to have to go through men walking into their bathrooms and exposing themselves doing about it?
Nothing!
Are we stupid or what?
Instead of these companies boycotting states who refuse to bend to their perverted desires, why don’t Christians who make up a 7-3 majority boycott the companies that are trying to force this stuff upon our citizens?
Good question. I hope that something is organized fast and folks will take a stand.
At some point believers are going to have to do something other than gripe about what is going on. We can silently stand on the sidelines and say nothing while our society is taken over by those who desire immorality to be the norm, or we can fight back. It is beyond time for pastors to stand in their pulpits and speak boldly and for the congregations to take action. Think about your children and grandchildren . . .
Dietrich Bonhoeffer said: “The test of the morality of a society is what it does for its children. – We will have to repent in this generation not merely for the hateful words and actions of the bad people but for the appalling silence of the good people.”
Martin Luther King Jr. said: “He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it.”
Mother Teresa said: “Do not wait for leaders; do it alone, person to person.”
Mahatma Gandhi said: “You may never know what results come of your actions, but if you do nothing, there will be no results. – We must be the change we wish to see.”
Jesus said:
John 8:32
“If you continue in My word, then you are truly disciples of Mine; and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.”
