For years now, the homosexual agenda has been forcefully coming out of the closet. As they do, they are working tirelessly to shove the Church of Jesus Christ into that same closet they vacated. Thankfully, there are still Christians in the land who refuse to go and be silenced by the political and religious correctness that has America by the throat. They will not stand by while America seeks to make straight what God has called crooked. They will not tolerate what God has deemed intolerable. Yes, there are still Christians who seek to obey the Lord and act as salt and light in a nation that is promoting moral decay, sexual anarchy and ethical corruption. The following report is by Rev. Flip Benham who attended this homosexual lust-fest. ~ Rev. Rusty Lee Thomas

They denied us a booth.  They denied us a sound permit.  They denied us the right to assemble without first attaining a permit.  They did everything possible to censor the Gospel of Christ from the streets of Salisbury during the Salisbury Pride lust fest.  Why would the Mayor of Salisbury, the Salisbury City Council, the Salisbury Post, and Salisbury Pride, collude in an attempt to nullify the First Amendment Rights of its citizens?  What animus do these folks have against the Gospel of Christ? 

If the United States Congress shall make no law prohibiting the establishment of religion or the free exercise thereof, how much less the city of Salisbury.  But the city of Salisbury has crafted an unconstitutional city ordinance requiring any citizen that joins with another citizen (2 or more) to promote a cause or a person, to first obtain a permit to be issued by the Salisbury Police Department.

This little ordinance is a stunning attack on the presentation of the Gospel of Christ and the First Amendment.  We have the Constitutional Right to freedom of assembly (without permit).  The Bible calls us to go out by two’s.  We are promised that wherever two or more are gathered together in the Name of Jesus – He is in our midst. 

Oh, maybe that’s why the city ordinance mentions (2 or more).  And maybe that’s why the city of Salisbury did not want unpermitted Christians (Hey, you have to have a license to drive a car, don’t you? ) to attend Salisbury Pride’s parade on the corner of Fisher and Main.  Maybe Jesus would shine a bright light on a sin that destroys those who practice it and nations that approve of it. 

Jesus is the problem isn’t He?  The city of Salisbury doesn’t want Him on the streets while proudly parading its sin in the public square.  Salisbury police and undercover agents were everywhere.  They had the Mobile Command Unit and the scissors lift out to monitor the “violent” Christians who might disturb the peace of those whose only unifying factor is sex – public, perverted, vile, in your face, sex.

How can we disturb what they don’t have?  There is no peace for the wicked.  The peace they long for can be found only in Christ. 

Thank God that over 200 Christians from many area churches came to the streets of Salisbury, in spite of the possibility of arrest, to lift up the Name of Jesus.  The Chief of Police noted that there were simply too many Christians to make arrests.  Wow!  The power of the Church of Jesus Christ.  We are more than we have become.

Here are a couple of stories from the Salisbury Post written by Emily Ford:

Woman says kissing assault charge bogus

 

Our good friend and staunch defender of the lives of preborn children, Cedrick Boehr, went home to be with our Lord Jesus two weeks ago.  His battle for the faith has been fought and won.  He now joins the great cloud of witnesses that have faithfully run their  race of faith before him.  He will be greatly missed by those of us who knew and loved him.  He was a powerful witness for Christ, a loving husband and father, and a man completely unashamed of the Gospel of Christ.

Ceddy, his precious wife Sandi, and their wonderful family were always on the front lines of the Gospel battle to extend the Kingdom of God in their city (Wichita, Kansas) and in their nation.  This family had much to do with the fact that Wichita, Kansas, is now abortion free.  The Boehr family was, is, and always will be an encouragement for those standing for Christ at the gates of hell.  

Ceddy was the Lord’s free man on this earth, and he is freer now than he ever has been.  Thank God for the resurrection of Christ!  There is life after death.  Hallelujah!  There is more to life, than this life.  Ceddy lived his life on this earth as a powerful witness of the truth that sets men free – Jesus! 

Thank you for finishing well Ceddy.  You laid your life down daily (carrying in your own body the death of Christ) enduring many afflictions and hardships so that we may have the life of Christ in us and a true pioneer to follow.  What a legacy you have left.

Below is a letter from Miss Donna Lippoldt sharing how you and I might be able to help the Boehr family at this time.

Thank you Jesus for giving us Ceddy at a time such as this. ~ Flip

Cedric & Sandi Boehr

Dear Friends of Cedric & Sandi,

What a loss it has been for Sandi and her family to send Cedric ahead of them to the Lord.  The children have been with Sandi since this tragic loss. Soon, they will be heading home, except for Evie who lives there and is due to have her second child in a few weeks. Some of us were able to be there for the memorial service.  It was an amazing experience as our friend was honored for the way that he honored His Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  Testimonies of Cedric’s evangelism were touching and entire families have been restored as a result.  We mourn with Sandi and the children.

Now, it’s time to look to the future.  Sandi is a strong woman, who is facing life as a single missionary, a widow.  She will have firsthand knowledge as she ministers to young military women.  She plans to continue to lead the Bible Studies, mentor the women with their children, teach them to cook, parenting skills, and how to love their husbands.  Sandi is a true Proverbs 31 woman.  She has much to give.

For those of us who love her and believe the Word of the Lord, in James 2:17, “Religion that God our Father calls pure and faultless is this, to take care of the widows and the orphans and keep oneself from being polluted by the worl;” we would like to invite you to join us in helping to take care of her as she continues the work that she and Cedric began together.

Here is Michael Marcavage’s report on his Campaign to Stop Stericycle.  God is moving powerfully.

Enjoy! ~ Flip

by Michael Marcavage

RYDER STOPS STERICYCLE FROM USING TRUCKS TO SERVICE ABORTION INDUSTRY

 

MIAMI, Fla. — The international truck leasing company Ryder System Inc. has informed the Campaign to Stop Stericycle (CSS) of its decision to stop Stericycle Inc. from using its trucks to service abortion facilities.

Stericycle, the nation’s leading waste management company, depends entirely upon truck leasing companies like Ryder to provide vehicles for its waste collection routes, which include a reported 586 Planned Parenthood locations and hundreds of other abortion facilities nationwide.

Ryder’s Chief Legal Officer and Executive Vice President Bob Fatovic told the campaign on Tuesday that Ryder is “changing [their] business and service relationship with Stericycle” after the company’s investigation into Stericycle’s collection, transportation and incineration of aborted children. Fatovic stated that in approximately 30 days Ryder’s trucks will be fully removed from all of Stericycle’s routes that service abortion facilities, and may not be used to service the abortion industry “in any way, shape or form.” 

Ryder’s decision follows the similar course of action by Penske Truck Leasing, who stopped Stericycle last year from using its trucks nationwide to service the abortion industry after being informed by CSS that its vehicles were being used to pick up fetal remains from the “Richmond Medical Center for Women” in Virginia. Penske Truck Leasing President and CEO Brian Hard sent an email to the campaign soon afterward, which vowed, “We have been, and you have my word that we will continue to be, proactive in stopping Stericycle from using our trucks to service abortion clinics.” 

The week after Penske’s trucks were removed from routes across America that included pickup at abortion facilities, a Ryder truck was seen servicing the Richmond facility. CSS immediately contacted Ryder’s corporate office to express concern, and has remained in contact with Ryder’s legal department for over a year. Now, as a result of the efforts of CSS, Ryder’s subsequent investigation and the outcry of the public, Ryder trucks can no longer be used by Stericycle to service abortion facilities. In fact, Stericycle’s leased Ryder trucks are already disappearing from their abortion collection routes, including one in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

“We applaud Ryder System, Inc. for removing itself from the equation and understanding the serious concerns associated with Stericycle’s use of its trucks to collect and transport the bodies of murdered children and the tools used to kill them,” Michael Marcavage of CSS stated. “Ryder’s decision to distance itself from Stericycle’s involvement with the abortion industry is another significant step toward ending Stericycle’s facilitation of the abortion holocaust. We hope that the remaining truck leasing companies will follow the lead of Penske and Ryder and stop providing resources to Stericycle to assist abortion facilities carry out their evil deeds,” Marcavage added. 

Marcavage also notes that there is much more work to be done as the number one supplier to Stericycle is Idealease, which has approximately 400 national affiliate locations and grosses over $150 million dollars a year. 

CSS is now encouraging citizens to call Idealease President Dan J. Murphy at (847) 304-6000 and/or email danjmurphy@idealease.com and call upon him to instruct his company to stop supplying the means for Stericycle to service abortion facilities. Since Idealease is also a franchised company, citizens are exhorted to additionally contact their local Idealease office and request that they not lease their vehicles to Stericycle for the use of servicing the abortion industry.

“My son, do not walk in the way with them. Keep your feet from their path, for their feet run to evil and hasten to shed blood.” – Proverbs 1:15-16

Levi Gray wrote this poem for Father’s Day June 19, 2011.  He read it in our little home church in Kannapolis, North Carolina, in honor of Adam Tennant who was ordained an elder in our church on that very day.  Adam has had much to do with Levi’s desire to follow after God with all of his heart.  Adam has proven a powerful witness and minister of God’s Word, and a friend of all who desire to do likewise.

A Father’s Day Poem

By Levi Gray

A man is something rarely found in these frightful times,

where people feel it’s best just to erase the boundary lines.

And you’re a fool if you speak the truth, Don’t judge is this world’s motto,

Self and flesh, that is our lord, and it’s our hearts we follow.

 

So I thank God that there are men, who stand up for the truth,

who go and fight the battle for our nation and our youth,

I felt I must declare and make as clear as it were glass,

my thankfulness for valiant men in the present and the past.

 

For those who fought for freedom, amidst the spray of bullets,

For those who preached the Word of God, and never sought to dull it.

For those who taught their children what was right and wrong and just,

And led them to our blessed Lord, that in Him we should trust.

 

For those who gave their lives and comfort, so generations after,

our children’s children would be free and see our God as Master.

For those who serve, provide, protect for children, wives, and kin,

Who lead their homes in love and truth, in hopes to drive out sin.

 

And to conclude, I will include the word of God from Paul,

Written to the church in Corinth, yet applies to all,

These words from our apostle, came from God above,

“Act like men, be strong, Let all you do be done in love.”

This report from Daniel and Angela Michael in St. Louis exposes a very nasty little truth that the Susan G. Komen Foundation and the American Cancer Society do not want you to know. 

“…for we are not ignorant of the devil’s schemes.”  ~ Flip

Susan G. Komen St. Louis Race for the Cure 2011

Race to Discover the Cause Instead of Waiting for a Cure

This year’s 13th annual Susan Komen Race for the Cure was met with thunderous storms as organizers repeatedly had to do damage control and reset booths while attempting to set up in the wee hours of the morning. Sizzling temperatures from this past week were extinguished with a cold front that came through overnight including storms that put a damper on things. Some of the participants didn’t care for a few of the more risqué slogan tee-shirts participants were sporting either, i.e. “Save Our Ta-Ta’s,” “Walking to Save 2nd Base,” and “Operation Healthy Hooters,” to name a few. One breast cancer survivor commented that she thought some people take it a little over the edge, “If you go through it, you soon realize it’s not just about your breasts, but your life.” But the organizers were happy that they got over 64,000 registered participants (though numbers were down) and made a little over $3 million on this year’s extravaganza.

Under the Gateway to the West Arch, St. Louis was again a sea of pink. We couldn’t help but feel empathy and hope for the many faces and generations walking, running, or supporting this cause. For some, the devastation this disease brings was obvious. Over 4,905 breast cancer survivors joined the survivor’s walk. It grabbed our heart strings. “Fight Like a Girl.” Some survivors sported boxing gloves as they marched. Touching! That is why our ministry continues to bring the truth of ALL the risks and preventable causes to this race. We love women. We want to empower women with all their risk factors. We even have family members who run in the race. Yet, something was different this year; it was not just our ministry asking the question: “Why aren’t we racing to find a cause?” but others were as well. And the first step would be to tell women of ALL the preventable risks of breast cancer.

The Susan Komen Foundation does a lot of good, but they are not doing all that they can. Komen is selectively telling the truth. They are not giving women information on all of the risks of breast cancer. Why? Because most of the Susan Komen Foundations are giving funds to Planned Parenthood. They are not telling women that one of the most preventable risks is elective abortion.

Studies suggest that an induced abortion causes biological changes to occur in a woman’s breasts which make her more susceptible to breast cancer. At the moment of conception, a woman’s estrogen levels elevate. With an induced abortion/miscarriage, those hormones go haywire in a woman’s breast. These abnormal cells lie in wait. www.abortionbreastcancer.com

In 2009 Komen officials admitted providing funds through grants to Planned Parenthood; from 2004-2009 over $3.3 million alone went to the abortion business. These grants were designated for breast health services, but a recent undercover sting operation via Live Action proved Planned Parenthood does not offer mammograms or breast health services. Good-hearted donors think their funds are going to help fight breast cancer where those services are not offered; in addition, the largest abortion provider in the country cannot guarantee the money is NOT going to go for abortion services. In Planned Parenthood’s annual report in 2007-2008, they reported 31,729 fewer breast exams and 15,560 more abortions. Who is policing how the donations are spent?

Women have the right to know that 28 out of 37 worldwide studies have independently linked induced abortion with breast cancer. Thirteen out of fifteen studies conducted on American women report increased risk. Seventeen studies are statistically significant, sixteen of which found increased risk. Most of the studies have been conducted by abortion supporters. The first study was published in an English publication in 1957 and focused on Japanese women. It showed a 2.6 relative risk or 160% increased risk of breast cancer among women who’d had an induced abortion.

Vital information that surfaced in the early 1980’s was deliberately withheld from women by the American Cancer Institute. Breast cancer was unheard of in the 1930’s. What has been introduced to society that now has breast cancer at epidemic proportions? Elective abortion, and the numbers are soaring and victims are becoming younger and younger; many have no history of breast cancer in their families. It is so ironic that an organization supposedly caring for women is responsible for thousands of their deaths annually due to the proven link between elective abortion and breast cancer, ie: Fred Hutchinson (Cancer Research Center)/Joel Brind Ph.D/Dr. Janet Daling.

Why wouldn’t we want women to know this vital information? Because the incidents of breast cancer might just go down by preventing a proven cause. We can’t leave out the money pit. The Susan G. Komen foundation has raised a lot of money and a lot of that money is going towards and funding the very same risk factor: ABORTION. They give money to Planned Parenthood. If the truth were known, they may lose some of that funding, and making money is what it’s all about.

“There’s a lot of money that is being made off sick women,” says Karen Malec, President of the Coalition on Abortion/Breast Cancer, adding: “We’re finding a pattern among these cancer fund-raising organizations” showing that their leaders previously were associated with abortion-advocacy groups, beginning with the founder of Komen herself, Nancy Brinker who started this organization after she lost her 36 year old sister Susan to breast cancer. This Dallas based foundation awards grants for breast cancer research, treatment, and prevention. Race for the Cure started in 1983 and is now the largest fundraiser walk worldwide.

Remember, fight like a girl and go on. Let’s love women enough to tell them ALL the risks and preventative measures so we can fight this devastating disease on all fronts, until all women are cured. Jeremiah 30:17 “For I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith the Lord.” Let’s race to discover the cause, instead of waiting for a cure. It makes more sense, and we may save more lives.

R.C. Sproul Jr., son of the eminent reformed theologian R.C. Sproul Sr., preached a powerful sermon at his father’s church (St. Andrews) preparing the way for OSA to storm the gates of hell in Orlando, Florida, this July 16-23.  Rarely have I heard a sermon preached that moved me to the very core of my being.  His exposition of James 1:22-27, a troublesome Scripture for many of us, is clear and succinct hitting me right between my “self-righteously” indignant eyes. 

I am one who likes to look into the mirror of God’s Word, and then go on my merry way doing whatever I want to do, but doing it all in the Name of Jesus.  R.C. allowed me no wiggle room.  After hearing this sermon, this confrontation between Almighty God and puffed up me, I repented and am repenting of my selfish ways and desiring to practice true and undefiled religion (read, real Christianity).

Faye told me it was the best pro-life sermon she had ever heard.  This caused me no undue heartache.  Not really.  I asked Rusty to invite R.C. to join us at our National Event and speak.  He graciously accepted the offer saying, “Have Gospel Will Travel!”

The sermon is about 40 minutes long.  Enjoy!    ~ Flip

Pastor Jonathan King of Mountain View Baptist Church with Jeremy and Felice Aughenbaugh allowing the theology of the church house to become biography in the streets of Jackson, Wyoming.  This was their first foray into the streets since we left Jackson.  Please keep them in your prayers as they are lifting up the Gospel of Christ in a most hostile and intolerant city. 

It is amazing that those who scream “tolerance” the loudest, are really the most intolerant of all.  Those who scream “stop the violence,” are really the most violent of all.  Those who scream “protect wildlife,” will not lift a finger to protect human life.  Those who proclaim “love for all religions,” hate only one – the Gospel of Jesus Christ!

God said, “…all who hate me love death.”  Proverbs 8:36. ~ Flip

Jeremy, Pastor John, me and the kids at Jackson’s gate of hell!

We had some reaction, but as Jer put it…We need Malachi! We didn’t get nearly the reaction we should have!

The graphic signs are what stirs the demons up and that is how we know this is a mighty, mighty work of GOD!

Here are some more pictures of Rachael’s Park Memorial and TV interviews Rusty did. ~ Flip

by Rev. Rusty Lee Thomas

The following are the two interviews revealing the attack against Rachel’s Park Memorial. Some of the information is not accurate, but the sin and crime of abortion is front and center in Waco, TX where it needs to be.

Channel 25

KCEN

A young man, who was the first father to honor the loss of his child through his sin, recently received ministry at the park. When he found out about its desecration he wrote, “This is horrible, we went out with Bonnie two nights ago and visited the memorial with our youngest son. I thank you again and appreciate your ministry. And would like to help in any way possible in repairing and cleaning up the destruction that was done to this beautiful memorial for the innocence.”

May God continue to turn to good, the evil committed against Him and His little ones. 

The public witness of the value of precious preborn children killed by abortion arouses visceral hatred in the bastions of hell, and in the hearts of men and women trying desperately to cover-up sin exposed.  Rachael’s Park Memorial is a graveyard of over 4,000 crosses commemorating the number of children killed each year by abortion in the United States of America.  This was a vision birthed in the hearts of Rev. Rusty Thomas and His family several years ago to establish a place where mothers and fathers could go to find healing and peace with God for the murder of their sons and daughters. 

Rachael’s Park Memorial has become a “Yad Vashem” (Isaiah 56:5), a “Memorial and a Name” for children killed by abortion.  For those trying to cover-up their sin, it has become a horrible reminder of the truth that abortion is the murder of a precious human being.  For those broken-hearted over the murder of their own child, Rachael’s Park Memorial has become a place of healing and forgiveness.

How one reacts to Rachael’s Park Memorial, is dependent upon which side of the cross he is standing on.    ~ Flip

by Rev. Rusty Lee Thomas

No sooner did we send out a call to fast and pray today for our national event then we had to send out another call to our local police in Waco, TX. During the dead of night, some cowardly, confused individual or individuals decided to desecrate Rachel’s Park Memorial yet again.

The last time our park was attacked, a car demolished about 300 crosses. Those 300 crosses were a part of a greater feature, which are the four thousand crosses that represent the four thousand children that die each day for the last 38 years since the tyrannical Roe vs. Wade decision.

This time the damage was not as great. The criminals only wiped out 35 crosses. We filed a report with the police and two TV stations came out to report the damage to our community. One of the stations asked if I thought this was in connection to the church moving next door to our local death camp, Planned Parenthood. I told them we have no proof, but surely the timing of this attack is somewhat suspicious. Some may feel we invaded their terrority and they felt the compulsion to do the same.

John Pisciotta of Pro-life Waco sent an email to the executive director of Planned Parenthood, Felicia Goodman, this morning asking her to renounce the violence perpetrated against these hallow grounds. He stated:

Felicia,

Please see attachment for details. This is distressing and totally uncalled for. I hope you will speak out publicly and powerfully against pro-choice violence.

With astonishment and regret,

John Pisciotta

As of yet, we have not heard if she was willing to do this publicly or not.

The reporters asked good questions about the park and the significance of the attack. We were able to communicate three important truths. First, abortion is the intentional destruction of the image bearers of Jesus Christ. God has stamped His image on every human being at the moment of conception. The culture of death fueled by abortion destroys and desecrates that divine image. Why should we then be amazed when pro-abortion advocates would desecrate and destroy a park seeking to honor the image of God.

Secondly, this vicious attack reveals the profound different manifestations of worldviews between Christian Pro-lifers and Pro-abort advocates. When we moved next door to Planned Parenthood, Waco witnessed life, love, light, truth, and children smiling and playing, while Planned Parenthood looked like a compound. The contrast was stark. The destruction to our park is an outward manifestion of the murderous spirit that fuels abortion. In this case, the violence escalated. Those involved with the slaughter of God’s babies not only desire to continue this holocaust, but sought to wipe out the memory of our nameless sons and daughters sacrificed to the altar of convenience.

 Lastly, they asked what message do we have for those who were involved with this hate crime. Our response, “May justice be led to victory. We pray God’s justice be established in their lives and may they take ownership for their sin and crime. We hope they will repent and find the tender mercies and the lovingkindness of God. The truth is, they will never find release of their hatred towards truth by attacking the messengers. It is only by accepting the message that Rachel’s Park Memorial proclaims that all will be made well with their souls through Jesus Christ our Lord.”

Here is a short video clip of the crime scene if you care to watch. As soon as the interviews are ready, we will send them out as well. Brethren pray for us!
