Standing against The New Normal in the evil day

By: American Decency Staff

 

Conservative Christians have taken a few tough blows in recent weeks.  Not the least of which was the narrow defeat of four state ballot issues to protect the normal (i.e. biblical) definition of marriage.  Yet while the Left gleefully celebrates their victories, such skirmishes are not the end of the war.  Those battles were heartbreakingly lost, but the war still rages.

We might not always win – but we are called to stand.  “Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.”  (Ephesians 6:13)

There is no doubt the day is evil.  And while the tendency is to lick our wounds, there’s no reason for retreat – not when we’re clad with the armor of Almighty God.  So we will continue to stand against the pornification of our culture, against the assault against religious liberty, against the attack upon marriage, and the legitimization of homosexuality.

That means we won’t sit by when NBC’s attempts to convince America that gay marriage is “The New Normal.” 

When the image of two men in bed intimately kissing is thrust upon viewers, as “The New Normal” did in their latest episode, we will continue to speak out and urge you to do the same.

Tuesday’s episode of “The New Normal,” with its push of the homosexual agenda, was sponsored by L.L Bean, Campbell’s Soup (V-8 juice), Geico, Burlington Coat Factory, The Clorox Company (Glad storage bags), Jared Jewelers, Maybelline, Toyota, Nissan, Barnes & Noble Nook, and Microsoft.

We also urge you to forward this to your family and friends, asking them to stand with us as well.

I recently read an article by Rev. Mark Creech which I commend to you, “The Blue Jay and the Hawk.”

He writes in part:

… Sometimes God's people find themselves in the grip of negative forces far superior to themselves. All hope may seemingly be lost – the end probable – no likely way to recover. It could be a health issue, financial problems, a failing marriage, a troubled or rebellious child, the demise of a dream, and the list goes on. It may be as it is for many conservative evangelicals, some Catholics, and many political activists who hoped to see a different result in this year's election, but now fear a righteous cause has irreparably failed.

Whatever the situation, take a lesson from a Blue Jay in the talons of a Hawk. Fight, fight, fight, fight, fight – fight no matter how great your foe – fight no matter how hopeless the circumstances seem – fight with every spiritual weapon at your disposal and never give up. For you never know whether or when or how God plans to intercede to supply the blessing, the deliverance, or the victory you seek. One thing is for certain, if you surrender you will be the enemy's lunch. …

 “Fight, fight, fight” against the giants of today.  While the foe may seem overwhelming, we will put on that armor each day and will continue to stand in this evil day.  Will you join us?
