If there is no holy God that hates sin, no just God that will judge sin, and no loving God that redeems sinners as the left claims, why then do they scream of sexual misconduct? By what standard do they judge since in their worldview there is no ultimate standard for truth and morality?
 
The enemies of Christ have a huge problem. On the one hand, they hate a God that, at least, in their minds does not exist and yet spend their lives vainly seeking to reach up into the heavens to drag him down to replace Him.
 
Men that aspire to public office that the left suspects is a political enemy, they go into full public smear tactic mode. We have a long list of political hit jobs in our history that reveals this strategy. They reach into the past to find someone willing to come forth at the last possible minute before a vote can be taken to accuse a person of sexual misconduct. It has worked in the past to take some down, so, they continue to use it to this day.
 
The progressive movement believes one can determine his or her’s own gender, in spite of self evident truth. They push every sexual deviancy on the planet and seduce this generation to believe that fornication is OK, homosexuality is OK, and the murder of the preborn is OK. Why then the feigned outrage over men who act upon what they push as normal behavior according to their perverted and distorted worldview?
 
I’m not insensitive to real crimes of rape, molestation, and the destruction that sexual immortality has unleashed upon this generation. I’m just pointing out the inconsistency and hypocrisy of the left that has no moral compass based upon the objective truth of God’s word and yet has to borrow from the Christian worldview to even feign moral outrage and use it as a political weapon to take on and take out their political enemies. It is a sham and the citizens of America need to wake up and reject it in Jesus’ name.
 
BTW, the whole Supreme Court nomination process is also a sham and if you are looking to that institution to end tyranny, stop the bloodshed, protect the God ordained family, and restore righteousness in the land, you are part of the problem. Go here to understand why?
 

A journalist sent me this video who presents the Gospel. At the end, he uses Jeremiah’s undying faith to drive home its poignant truths that has the power to set the captives free. Enjoy!

 

This, I believe, was the first major seed sown in the life of our son, Jeremiah, that led to his fiery baptism, fiery ministry, fiery ordeal, and glorious Homecoming.

As God’s providential timing would have it, there is no rest for the weary. Kendra and I are leaving today to go to Louisville, KY to face F.A.C.E. We are due, along with the other rescuers, in Federal Court on Friday, September 7th. It is time to deal with the Federal government concerning our Mother’s Day Rescue that took place May 13th, in the year of our Lord, 2017.

We are not asking for deliverance for ourselves, but for the little ones made in God’s image being led to slaughter for blood money made possible by the wicked, lawless decree known as Roe vs. Wade.

Jeremiah has run his lap of the race of faith. The baton has fallen from his hand. His sword and shield has been dashed to the ground. Who amongst this generation will pick them up and continue to storm the gates of hell?

Be done with lesser things young people. It will rob you of your destiny. There is a Covenant of Death that has produced the culture of death your generation staggers under. Jeremiah knew it and gave his last breath to defeat it.

Jeremiah has gone home to be with the Lord and he has passed the baton to you. Take up sword and shield for It is your turn now in Jesus’ name!

One of the most powerful, convicting, and encouraging words I have ever heard, from Rusty Thomas speaking about his son who just passed from cancer, Jeremiah Thomas. Please listen with open hearts. “Be done with lesser things!”- Rusty Thomas

Jesus was honored and lifted up at Jeremiah’s Homecoming Service. God’s mail was delivered! Our son’s memory cherished. The Gospel was preached. A charge was given to the youth to pick up the fallen sword and shield from Jeremiah’s hands and continue to storm the gates of hell to break the Covenant of Death to redeem the culture of death in Jesus’ name!

“Those who do wickedly against the covenant he shall corrupt with flattery; but the people who know their God shall be strong, and carry out great exploits” (Daniel 11:32)!

Local News Coverage of Jeremiah’s Homecoming Service:

At our family altar last night worshipping the Lord and seeking how to steward the painful gift our our son who graduated to glory, we sang and two our our sons-in-laws paid a special tribute to the Lord and Jeremiah.
 
Josh Peterson sang a song he composed called “The Silent Scream” and Levi Gray recited a poem he wrote just yesterday called “An Arrow of God.” As far as I’m concerned he nailed it and I hope you all agree.
 
Arrow of God: A Poem In Memory of Jeremiah Thomas
 
An arrow, built of flesh and bone,
shoots forth from the bow,
As father pulls his precious son,
Up from the water below.
 
As sin and death swims underneath,
A man of God is raised,
Fire, born from heaven, falls,
And tears flow down his face.
 
The God above, His ways and thoughts,
Higher and better than ours,
Makes plans we cannot comprehend,
To show forth His great power.
 
Jeremiah, young and strong,
With passion in his eyes,
To God He cries, “My life is yours!”
Our Gracious Lord replies,
 
“Dear Son, I will do mighty things,
My Kingdom bursting forth,
My Light will shine from you, young man,
Bright burning like a torch.”
 
“My humble child, to grow this tree,
We must first plant the seed,
And as you sink into the ground,
My power will proceed.”
 
“This road is full of pain and strife,
Bestowed on special men.
For only those with great resolve,
Can fight this fight and win.”
 
“It is one thing to best your foe,
With sword in mighty hand,
Or beat them with your cunning,
With crafty schemes and plans,”
 
“But as you will soon understand,
This truth by which you’re saved,
That I have done my greatest work,
From deep within the grave.”
 
Satan, the Accusing One,
He fears the arrow’s blow.
He’ll dispatch every hellish imp,
to thwart this warrior’s hope.
 
Yet Satan in his pride, is blind,
to God’s redeeming plan,
That every blow the devil throws,
Is strengthening the man.
 
With our earthly eyes we see,
His loss, as he decays,
We see his mortal frame unfurl,
His strength just wastes away.
 
It pains us so, but one great hope,
Will keep us from despair,
That what is sown in weakness here,
Is raised in power there.
 
As this arrow hits its mark,
So many more are notched and drawn,
Let us look past the dreadful dark,
to a great and glorious dawn.
 
Will you stand to fight like him?
Or will you sit idly by?
Will you honor this warrior’s death?
Will you heed his battlecry?
 
I tell you, the battle is the Lord’s,
so stand and join this fight,
and one day, just like Jeremiah,
your faith will become sight.
 
 
 
 

High School Football Star Vilified For Dying Wish To Outlaw Abortion In Texas, Dies At 16

Wanted to be Christian minister

By HANK BERRIEN
August 29, 2018

A high school football star who suffered a six-month battle with bone cancer and used his Make-A-Wish request to ask Texas Gov. Greg Abbott to abolish abortion in Texas, died Sunday night.

Jeremiah Thomas led the Parkview Pacers to the state semi-finals in six-man football, won All-State honors and was named the game’s Most Valuable Player in 2016, followed by winning All-State honors again in 2017, playing every down on offense and defense as the Pacers won the state championship. He also wanted to become a minister.

On Monday, coach Bryce Frazier stated, “We lost a fighter and a good one at that. He loved everybody that he came in contact with, and showed love and he showed the love of Christ on everything he did and someone who could just could make you laugh.”

After Thomas’ request to speak to Abbott went viral, he was attacked with hate mail. Frazier said Jeremiah always answered lovingly.

Speaking in June from his wheelchair of the favorite testimonies that he had experienced, Thomas recalled one when he was in Houston:

“There was this girl; she would come and visit me a lot, and she’d bring me a bunch of snacks. We’d watch movies together; it was like super-fun. She told me about her younger sister — her father — not her younger sister, her stepsister, who, her father was murdered when she was seven; her mom passed away last year from an overdose on drugs, and she grew up real hurt from the Church. Any idea of Christianity she hated, utterly hated. It wasn’t until she walked into my hospital room that she exclaimed that she saw true Christianity and true love. She saw my mom on her knees, just praying for me, and I was sitting up in bed, real chipper and happy. She expected me to be like, dying, super-sick. She was so surprised; she gave her life to Christ. She immediately went back to church.”

Before he died, Thomas made a video in which he said, “Sometimes bravery involves giving up on everything you’ve ever known, for everyone you’ve ever loved or everything you’ve ever wanted for the sake of something greater. I don’t know how much time I have left on this earth but with a time that I do have I want it to count for my God and for my generation.”

Frazier said, “We’re going to keep his locker here for him, make sure that he still lives on in this locker room too.” He concluded, “You know I asked them (the team) Friday night if they wanted to play and they said yes, they want to fight, and that’s our word this year, fight, and it’s going to be a fight for him.”

“We lost a fighter and a good one at that,” Parkview head football coach Bryce Frazier said Monday.

As a freshman, Thomas led the Parkview Pacers to the state semi-finals in six-man football and was named the game’s Most Valuable Player.

Last year as a sophomore, Thomas won All-State honors for the second year in a row as the Pacers won the state championship.

He played every down on offense and defense.

“He loved everybody that he came in contact with, and showed love and he showed the love of Christ on everything he did and someone who could just could make you laugh,” Frazier said.

Thomas was also an anti-abortion activist.

His Make-a-Wish request, which was granted, was to talk to Texas Gov. Greg Abbott by phone so he could ask Abbott to abolish abortion in Texas.

The story went viral on news outlets across the country and around the world.

Thomas received a lot of hate mail as a result, but Frazier says he always responded in love.

In a video made during his last days, Jeremiah said: “Sometimes bravery involves giving up on everything you’ve ever known, for everyone you’ve ever loved or everything you’ve ever wanted for the sake of something greater.”

“I don’t know how much time I have left on this earth but with a time that I do have I want it to count for my God and for my generation,” he said in the video.

Jeremiah was the ninth of 13 children.

His locker at Parkview won’t be changed.

“We’re going to keep his locker here for him, make sure that he still lives on in this locker room too,” Frazier said.

Thomas wanted to become a minister, and believed strongly in conservative ideals that he gleaned from his father and the Bible.

A funeral service begins at 10 a.m. Friday at Antioch Community Church at 510 North 20th Street.

Burial will follow at Oakwood Cemetery.

Visitation is from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Thursday at the Church of the Open Door at 900 Loop 340 in Waco.

His family will take the field with his team Friday night for Parkview’s first game of the season against Fort Worth THESA.

“You know I asked them (the team) Friday night if they wanted to play and they said ‘yes they want to fight’ and that’s our word this year fight and it’s going to be a fight for him,” Frazier said.
