Martin Luther
King, Jr. was born JANUARY 15, 1929. A minister like his father and
grandfather, he pastored Dexter Avenue Baptist Church in Montgomery and
Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta. He formed the Southern Christian
Leadership Conference. On April 16, 1963, King wrote: "As the Apostle
Paul carried the gospel of Jesus Christ...so am I compelled to carry the
gospel...I must make two honest confessions to you, my Christian and Jewish
brothers...I stand in the middle of two opposing forces...One is a force of
complacency...The other force is one of bitterness and hatred, and it comes
perilously close to advocating violence. It is expressed in the various
black nationalist groups...the largest being Elijah Muhammad's Muslim
movement. Nourished by frustration over racial discrimination, this movement
is made up of people who have lost faith in America...I have tried to stand
between these two forces...for there is the more excellent way of love...One
day the South will know that when these disinherited children of God sat
down at lunch counters they were standing up for what is best in the
American dream and for the most sacred values in our Judeo-Christian
heritage."

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr: Conservative or Liberal? Harry R. Jackson, Jr.
PatriotPost.us 07-03 Brief - Irrespective of one’s conclusion about Martin Luther King’s proper place in history (given what we know about his personal character lapses, including marital infidelity, his association with known Communists and plagiarism in his doctoral dissertation), the two texts cited below (from The Patriot’s Historic Documents section) are well worth reading—for each of them proclaim truth. “I have a dream” - “Letter from a Birmingham jail”
In Case You Missed It...
The Christian "Left"
Why the 'Christian Left' is not Kevin McCullough - For the Christian Left to claim connection to true Christianity is to deny its leftist tendencies and for them to claim connection to the aims of the political left is to deny its Christianity.
Clinton, Carter Support Liberal - Baptist Group (Citizen Link) - Former chief executives side with renegade Southern Baptists for liberal activism.
Liberal Groups Fuel the National Council of Churches (Citizen Link) - A study of funding reveals politics, not theology, is the driving force behind the group. The financially troubled National Council of Churches (NCC) has sold its biblical roots for money from secular foundations bent on using it to forward a liberal agenda, according to a report by The Institute on Religion and Democracy (IRD)
Beware of Angels from the Dark Side,
For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. Matthew 24:24
2 Timothy 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; Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. 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; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
What Forced Union Dues Are Supporting
Big Labor's Card Check is Bad News for Workers Matt Kibbe -The political pendulum is swinging with full force towards the powerful interests who helped elect the new congressional majority. Those interests favor big government and a command and control economy. ...Just follow the money. According to the Department of Labor, union members paid $7 billion in mandatory dues in the past year. Those dues go to union salaries, strike funds, and political donations. The same Department of Labor report paints a decidedly partisan trend in union support. Of the $8,500,000 spent by the American Federation of State and County Employees, 99 percent went to Democrats, and in a similar fashion, 99 percent of the $7,200,000 given by the UAW went to Democrats as well. According to its campaign reports, the AFL-CIO has spent $8,200,000 to support Democrat leaning 527 groups. The International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers and the Steelworks also gave 95 percent of all political contributions to Democrats. In exchange for these contributions, are Congressional Democrats willing to through out the right of all workers to choose via secret ballot union or non-union leadership? It is not surprising to find that the public is in clear support of secret balloting. According to a 2006 survey by Opinion Research Corporation, 75 percent of Americans support secret ballots, and only 12 percent supported card check, with 13 percent of Americans undecided.
