Y'know, when reading the scriptures we are instructed by The Lord that the hearts of kings(rulers) are in the hand of The Lord and he decides to turn them in whatever manner that he wills to - that his plan will be accomplished. Don't run from that....He can turn them to Him or even away from Him...There are examples within the scriptures of rulers acknowledging the sovereignty of The Lord and confessing his rule - then there are those rulers who rejected The Lord and his instruction and were destroyed - additionally there were evil rulers that The Lord allowed to subjugate and persecute the israelites in order to bring them back into submission to Him.
Proverbs 21:1¶ The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will.
The desire of Jesus Christ has been clearly expressed regarding leaders/rulers and in this case even city commissioners, in 1 Timothy 2:1-4. Not only that, but instructions were given to Timothy and us as we read the scriptures, to pray and make intercession for these individuals. We should also realize that in addition to these actions a door of utterance is always open to disciples of Christ at city commision meetings and other venues to declare what Jesus has already said in the manner described by Paul to Timothy in 2 Timothy 4:1-4;
2Timothy 4:1¶ I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom; 2Ti 4:2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. 2Ti 4:3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 2Ti 4:4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
I am obligated by Ezekiel 3:17-22 to warn you that several current commissioners in the city of Gainesville, some of which profess that they are saved and "love" The Lord are liars. We should be referencing both John 14:15 and 1 John 2:3-4 to see that truly loving The Lord is defined by the keeping of his commandments. Several of these commissioners - in the tradition of Pharoah from the pages of Exodus chapter 7, simply do not know the Lord and are devoid of the knowledge that Jesus shares about rulers over men according to 2 Samuel 23:3;
2Samuel 23:3 The God of Israel said, the Rock of Israel spake to me, He that ruleth over men must be just, ruling in the fear of God.
In addition to that there is a deceitful campaign that has been launched in the Gainesville area as it pertains to the upcoming vote on March 24th (early voting has already begun today on 3/16) to deceive Gainesville citizens into voting no - on an amendment that will rectify the evil that the Gainesville City Commision passed on 1/28/08 to adopt legislation that has given special preferences - including free public restroom access to your children - to homosexual, transgendered, bisexual and filthy lifestyle proponents.
The state of Florida civil rights act makes no provision for this filth - however the city of Gainesville commissioners decided even in the face of overwhelming community outcry against this evil to pass it anyway back on 1/28/08. Hence the need to deceive citizens this time around who do not take the time to examine what they are saying "no" or YES to. A "no vote allows Gainesville to have it's own civil rights legislation that is seperate from the State's. A YES vote however, binds the city of Gainesville to have the same legislation that the State does in regards to civil rights.
Obviously then - anyone who will stand for true righteousness who will declare whether they support or despise this evil....will declare YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS on Charter Amendment 1, all day long, everyday, from now - until 3/24/09.
