"If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple."
Luke 14:26
When a person decides to take a position serving Jesus, or his appointed representives on the earth, like say, the president, he must put all his own values and allegiences behind him. He has to be willing to lay down his own, or say, his grandmother's life for his lord or president. So my comments about running over my grandmother were made to demonstrate my faith in Jesus' word, and were unfortunately, taken out of context.

"For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath."
Matthew 13:12
This verse is long thought to be the inspiration for social Darwinism. While Christianity disproves the existence of evolution, social Darwinism is a fact of life backed by the Holy Scriptures. God gives to those that have as a reward for caring for those that have not. For even if the poor had resources, they would only lose them. It is natural law. It is up to those who have to act as stewards over the resources of the earth. It is God's will.

"Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand."
Romans 14:4
We have a marvelous, democratic government blessed by God, with ONE exception - the judiciary. The judiciary is NOT elected. We do not VOTE for judges. They are like little kings, holdovers from the evil monarchies of decadent Europe. If we voted for everything America would be an entirely different place, ruled by the whims of the people, inspired by the leadership of God's elect. If we didn't have the judiciary both the President and Congress could do whatever they wanted, as your ELECTED officials. Think about it!

"For he hath looked down from the height of his sanctuary; from heaven did the LORD behold the earth; To hear the groaning of the prisoner."
Psalms 102:20
It's important to remember that things happen to us for a reason. When I first started my prison term I asked, "Why me, Lord?" And Jeus reminded me that I was not the first person unjustly imprisoned. Christ was a prisoner, as well as both Peter and Paul. Many important, spiritual leaders have been imprisoned. It took imprisonment to open my eyes to the fact that I also, am an important spiritual leader. So I thank God for my prison sentence, and that it was in a cushy federal prison and that I didn't have to serve the whole thing. Praise Jesus.
