California Senators Say Faith Communities Need to Evolve

This bill attacks the freedom of Christians,

“The faith community, like anyone else, needs to evolve with the times. The science is clear.  Gays “Must Stay Gay”

California legislators are making it clear. “Christians stay out of the same-sex attractions or gender identity confusion business”. Christian pastors and Christian counselors stay away and stay out.

This bill attacks the freedom of Christians,

elected leaders told churches and those with biblical beliefs about gender and sexual orientation that advocating for their views could get them sued.

AB 2943 is the radical bill from Assemblymember Evan Low and the LGBT Legislative Caucus. With last week’s Senate vote, (watch debate) elected leaders told churches and those with biblical beliefs about gender and sexual orientation that advocating for their views could get them sued.

This bill attacks the freedom of Christians, like those pictured above, to find the services and resources from counselors, schools, and faith-based organizations that help them live out their biblical convictions regarding sexual behavior and gender identity. Shouldn’t these people have the freedom to find true joy by embracing and living out their faith without government persecution? Read their testimonies of joy and change at oncegay.com.

The implications of AB 2943 are staggering. Legal experts confirm that by targeting financial transactions, AB 2943 threatens religious non-profits, churches, and pastors who provide paid resources to help people practice their faith.

Challenge your Pastors to ‘speak the truth’ against Abortion

The elites in both parties, Republicans and Democrats, do not want to lose the ‘right to abortion.’

“Because it is the way of the elites to change the culture and to get control of the lives of those whom they see as lesser beings than they are.” he said.

“If you want to hear about rights, then let’s talk about the right to life, [from] the beginning of life and [to] the end,” he said.  Full Article

Father Orsi squarely blamed pastors as the ones most responsible for the continued existence of abortion in America. “Who is responsible for this great blight on our society, this murder of the innocents? First and foremost let me tell you it is the pastors,” he said.

“But nobody wants to say that. How many times have you heard abortion preached against in your churches? Very seldom and in very few churches. What you find most of all in our churches these days, ‘we are a welcoming community.’ You know what that means? [It means], ‘come in here we are all nicey-nice. We don’t want to offend you even when you are destroying your soul and you’re destroying human life,’” he added.

Orsi encouraged pro-lifers to challenge their pastors to “speak the truth in the churches.” He said that pastors must then “speak to the politicians and hold their feet to the fire,” telling them of their duty to pass laws that prevent abortion. “Pastors must be strong in encouraging the politicians [regarding] what is necessary for them in order to maintain our vote, or else we will elect new politicians who will,” he said.  Pastors must also remind politicians “what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses his soul,” he added.
