TOP RADIO HOST MICHAEL SAVAGE: "WE'RE BEING INVADED RIGHT NOW"
TOP RADIO HOST MICHAEL SAVAGE: "WE'RE BEING INVADED RIGHT NOW"

Not all invasions are hot — not all invaders come with guns and bombs. And Barack Obama, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, and other Western leaders are “invading their own countries,” says radio host Michael Savage, using a foreign army introduced under the banner of “immigration,” “illegal migration” and “refugee status.”Writes WND.com, “History isn’t about tolerance or peace or understanding. History is about war. History is about conflict. History is about invasions — and the most consequential invasion in human history is well underway.” WND isn’t talking about just an American problem, a German problem, a Swedish problem, or a French problem, but one that threatens to extinguish all of the greatest civilization ever to grace our planet: Western civilization. And this is effected via what’s euphemistically called “demographic change.”Consider the United States. In 1965, close to 90 percent of Americans were of European descent, were of the Western tradition. That percentage now stands at 62 — and falls further each passing day. What happened? The Immigration and Naturalization Act of 1965 happened. Introduced by Congressman Emanuel Celler (D-N.Y.) and aggressively promoted in the Senate by Ted Kennedy (D-Mass.), it created a situation in which legal immigration would swell from an average of 250,000 immigrants a year to approximately one million, causing the rate of immigration to exceed the rate of assimilation. Moreover, 85 percent of these new immigrants would come from the Third World, leading to rapid demographic change. Note that this is something Kennedy had promised would not occur.And now, though the United States is teeming with unassimilable foreigners, and citizens must press buttons to conduct business in their native language. Obama has accelerated the process by inviting waves of illegals into our nation and granting “refugee status” gratuitously. As WND tells us, quoting Savage and discussing his new book on the subject, Scorched Earth:“We’re being invaded from the south. We’re being invaded from the north, from the east and from the west. You might say, ‘Well, that’s the way of things,’ and you might get used to it. They’re here, they’re near, they’re everywhere. The question is, why are liberals so quick to embrace this invasion, and why are traditionalists and conservatives like myself so resistant to erasing the borders, language and culture of this great nation?” [said Savage][.]More than 3 million foreigners came to the United States in 2014 and 2015 according to a new report from the Center for Immigration Studies. The foreign-born population in the United States, now standing at 43.3 million people, is at an all-time high. Immigrants now make up almost 14 percent of the population, the highest percentage in 105 years.Of course, liberals aren’t only quick to embrace this invasion, they’ve authored it. Why?Power.Seventy to 90 percent of the Third World and Muslim immigrants in the United States vote for leftists upon being naturalized. This pattern holds throughout the Western world. For instance, in France, where Islamic immigration has become a contentious issue, approximately 90 percent of Muslims voted for socialist president Francois Hollande in 2012. Leftists know this and joyfully import voters. As Andrew Neather, former advisor to ex-British Prime Minister Tony Blair, confessed in 2009, the massive immigration into the United Kingdom over the previous 15 years was designed by his Labour Party to “rub the Right's nose in diversity and render their arguments out of date.”But it’s rendering Western civilization “out of date,” a fact that hasn’t escaped hostile foreign entities. As late Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi said in 2006 while commenting on the “cold invasion,” “We have 50 million Muslims in Europe. There are signs that Allah will grant Islam victory in Europe — without swords, without guns, without conquest — will turn it into a Muslim continent within a few decades.”And the “enemy within,” as Savage would put it, celebrates this rending of the West with a demonic hatred of what should be their own culture. Just consider that Swedish multiculturalist social engineer and Social Democrat politician Mona Sahlin actually said in 2001 that "the Swedes must be integrated into the new Sweden; the old Sweden is never coming back." Of course, if a corresponding sentiment had been expressed by a backwoods tribesman about his own tribe, it would be viewed as most odd; many would call him a traitor. And when a rain forest-dwelling tribe is overwhelmed by outsiders — or when the Tibetans are inundated with ethnic Chinese, which has been happening — anthropologists will condemn it as demographic and cultural genocide. In the West, though, it’s marketed as “multiculturalism.”And we’re told, “Our strength lies in our diversity.”Obama knows precisely what he’s doing, too, says Savage, and is purposely deconstructing our nation. “Obama is invading his own country. He’s destroying it from within, like a worm in an apple,” said the radio host. No doubt. In fact, Obama stated last year that over the long term he was “pretty optimistic” that conservatism would be extinguished “because this country just becomes more and more of a hodgepodge of folks.”Even more damningly, it was alleged in 2015 that there’s a secret Obama administration plot to use the new illegal aliens as “seedlings” that will develop a “country within a country”; these foreigners will “navigate, not assimilate” as they eventually “take over the host,” coming “out of the shadows” and “pushing the citizens into the shadows,” the report informed.In this vein, WND mentions that at issue isn’t just the massive number of immigrants, but also their nature. The site further points out that this creeping Third World-ism has already turned states such as California into socialist bastions that vote reliably Democrat. For sure. As I wrote in 2010, placing the matter in perspective:If we imported millions of Scandinavians — who have created the most liberal governments on Earth — would we expect them to magically change their ideology upon seeing American terra firma? If not, why would we expect otherwise with south-of-the-border socialists? If they choose Hugo Chavez and Evo Morales types below the Rio Grande, why wouldn’t they above it? Geography doesn’t change ideology.It doesn’t change jihadist zeal, either. Referring to the recent influx of Muslim migrants into the United States — Obama has welcomed more than 13,000 almost exclusively Muslim “Syrian refugees” already this year — Savage mentioned that these individuals cannot actually be vetted and thus are unknown quantities. Moreover, he points out that Obama is preventing border-patrol agents and the police from enforcing immigration law, as the president “invades his own country with a de facto army from other nations,” as the radio legend put it. He characterizes Obama as “dangerous” and as a “psychopath” bent on replacing the population of his own country.Of course, Obama did telegraph his intentions in 2008, promising “fundamental change.” Note that “fundamental” means “serving as, or being an essential part of, a foundation or basis.” If a man says his wife requires fundamental change, he doesn’t just mean she needs a new hairdo or wardrobe, or even cosmetic surgery. He means that he doesn’t like the very essence of what she is and wants her transformed into a completely different person.As for the Left’s destruction of the West, it will continue unless and until Western voters enforce fundamental change — and divorce leftism, permanently, from their cultures and governments.
STATIST BILL O'REILLY OF FOX NEWS CALLS FOR ALL GUN CRIMES TO BE FEDERAL CRIMES
BILL O'REILLY OF FOX NEWS CALLS FOR ALL GUN CRIMES TO BE FEDERAL CRIMES
BY BOB ADELMANN
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:
On Wednesday evening Bill O’Reilly, host of The O’Reilly Factor, offered his solution to gun violence: make all gun crimes federal crimes to be enforced at the federal level. “That way,” he claimed, “American law enforcement everywhere can not only take guns off the streets but people who illegally carry them and/or use them to commit crimes … and the upshot, pardon the pun, is that legal gun owners would be left alone.”He expanded on this trashing of precious gun rights by federal police: “Anyone committing any crime, any crime with a gun, even simple illegal possession, should be subject to federal mandatory prison sentences. All gun crimes should become federal crimes.”Translation: Guns as well as the criminals using them will be taken off the streets — without due process, without Second Amendment protections — done presumably by federal law enforcement using federal police officers. State laws would be overridden and ignored.This is the real Bill O’Reilly. Widely perceived as a “conservative,” O’Reilly has been a master at deception, deflecting attention away from real issues. For example, rarely if ever does O’Reilly, or his carefully selected guests, talk about the threats to national sovereignty posed by the United Nations, a New World Order (whose desired implementation really isn't even hidden by elites anymore), or the Council on Foreign Relations. Never does he allow his audience to hear from the likes of Alex Jones of InfoWars or Jack McManus or Art Thompson of The John Birch Society. Can any viewer remember the last time anyone fromBreitbart News appeared with O’Reilly? Or Eric Erickson of Red State?O’Reilly feigns conservative stances and then lets his real positions be known. Back in January, following the San Bernardino, California, shooting, O’Reilly could have represented the National Rifle Association when he said:The truth is, terrorists are not going to submit themselves to background checks — neither are dangerous felons or insane people. They are not going to sign any paper when they buy a gun.Do we all get that? They will buy their guns on the black market. And no registration law will prevent that.Less than six months later, on June 14, O’Reilly blamed gun violence on the “right wing,” calling them responsible for it and then adding:There is too much gun crime in the USA, and high powered weaponry is too easy to get. That's the fact. So let's deal with it. We all have the right to bear arms, but we don't have the right to buy and maintain mortars. Even if you feel threatened by gangsters or a New World Order. No bazookas, no Sherman tanks, no hand grenades. That's because the Second Amendment clearly states the government has a right to regulate militias, made up of individuals. They have that right in the name of public safety.Ignoring his egregious misunderstanding of what the Second Amendment not only says but what it means, his rant sounded awfully similar to that expressed by the “reverend” Jesse Jackson the same day:Gun control cannot end terror, neither the mass shootings like Orlando nor the daily horror as in Chicago. Omar Mateen, the killer in Orlando, was a security guard, apparently with a record clean enough that he was able to buy guns legally. But surely it is inconceivable that military assault weapons like the AR-15 semiautomatic rifle that he used (and that was also used in Aurora and Newtown and San Bernardino) should be so easily purchased. Reviving the ban on assault weapons that lapsed under President Bush is not a full remedy, but it is simple common sense.O’Reilly’s “make all gun crimes federal offenses” statement on Wednesday night reflects how his education at liberal Boston University and Harvard and his decades-long employment by CBS News, ABC News, and CBS’ Inside Edition bleeds over from time to time into his comments on gun violence. When he drops his “deflection” shield, one can see who he really is: just one more shill for the totalitarian Left that controls the mainstream media.

TWO MEN WHO IDENTIFY AS WOMEN BECOME FIRST TRANSGENDER NOMINEES FOR U.S. CONGRESS
TWO MEN WHO IDENTIFY AS WOMEN
BECOME FIRST TRANSGENDER NOMINEES
FOR U.S. CONGRESS
BY HEATHER CLARK
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:
Two men who identify as women have become the first “transgendered” individuals in the nation to be nominated for U.S. Congress.
Misty Snow, 30, is running as a Democrat against Utah’s current sitting senator, Mike Lee. Born in 1985, Snow says he has always identified as a female, but didn’t seek hormonal treatments until two years ago.
“Becoming a woman is something that she has wanted for a really long time, ever since high school,” his mother, Linda Pace, told People Magazine. “I think that by running for the Senate, she’s showing people that a person’s gender isn’t what matters. People are people. Everybody matters. And that is Misty’s message.”
Snow’s focal issues are income inequality, raising the minimum wage, maternity leave, climate change and homosexual and transgender protections. He debated Lee, a Mormon, on the latter issue recently at Brigham Young University.
“Regardless of what your beliefs about marriage are, or regardless of what your neighbor might believe about marriage, neither you nor your neighbor should ever be discriminated against,” Lee said in speaking of his proposed First Amendment Defense Act.
“The problem with that is it pretty much legalizes discrimination in the name of religion,” Snow responded. “I would encourage religious institutions to treat all students equally, regardless of whether or not they are LGBT.”
In Colorado, Misty Plowright, 33, is running as a Democrat against incumbent Doug Lamborn, a non-denominational Christian. Plowright, who is married to a woman, is also involved in a polyamorous relationship with a man who cohabitates with him and his wife.
“Two years ago we were in Vegas for the World Series of Poker. We got him a ring. We consider it to be our marriage to him,” he told the Guardian in July.
Plowright says, however, that he isn’t asked about his lifestyle much on the campaign trial.
“A lot of people don’t like identity politics,” he told reporters. “They want to know what I think about taxes, about guns, about property rights, about jobs, about veterans’ issues, about health care.”
Plowright’s primary platform issues are Veteran care, domestic energy production, health care and climate control. He also says he has a solution to abortion: artificial wombs.
“You can terminate a pregnancy without terminating a fetus,” he told KOAA-TV last month. “Pro-choice side is happy because you don’t have a government bureaucrat in a woman’s uterus. Pro-life side is happy because, hey, babies aren’t getting murdered anymore.”
While both won in the primaries, they acknowledge that their chances of winning in Tuesday’s election are unlikely.
19th century statesman Daniel Webster, who held office both in the House and Senate, once said, “If the power of the gospel is not felt throughout the length and breadth of the land, anarchy and misrule, degradation and misery, corruption and darkness will reign without mitigation or end.”
Proverbs 14:34 declares, “Righteousness exalteth a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people.”

MISTY PLOWRIGHT ON "SOCIAL DEMOCRACY"
POPE FRANCIS ACCELERATES APOSTATE ECUMENICAL "UNITY" WITH LUTHERANS
MIKE GENDRON REPORTS: www.proclaimingthegospel.org; excerpts republished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:
Only God Can Condemn and Save
On October 31, we celebrated the 499th Anniversary of the Reformation. When Martin Luther nailed his 95 Theses to the Castle Church in Wittenberg, Germany, it began a movement that would set thousands of captives free from the bondage of religious deception. The Catholic Church attempted to thwart the mass exodus of its people by condemning anyone who left the church. During the Counter Reformation, the Council of Trent threatened hostile action on Catholics and former Catholics who would not remain loyal to their religion. They attempted to control people with the threat of over 100 anathemas.
One of the anathemas forced people to believe the dogma of indulgences which Luther had soundly rebuked with his 95 Theses. The Council "condemns with anathema those who say that indulgences are useless or that the Church does not have the power to grant them." An indulgence is "a remission before God of the temporal punishment due to sins whose guilt has already been forgiven, which the faithful Christian...gains under certain defined conditions." They can be applied to the dead by way of prayer, the Rosary, or the sacrifice of the Mass.
When the pope pronounces an anathema, he uses a formula which ends with these words: "We deprive [him/her] of the Communion of the Body and Blood of Our Lord, we separate him from the society of all Christians, we exclude him from the bosom of our Holy Mother the Church in Heaven and on earth, we declare him excommunicated and anathematized, and we judge him condemned to eternal fire with Satan and his angels and all the reprobate, so long as he will not burst the fetters of the demon, do penance, and satisfy the Church; we deliver him to Satan to mortify his body, that his soul may be saved on the day of judgment."
Anathemas are said to condemn former Catholics to the torments of everlasting hell unless they do penance and return home to Rome. They also condemn current Catholics if they do not believe every infallible dogma of their church.
Former Catholics who are now born-again Christians need not worry! "If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, how will he not also with him graciously give us all things? Who shall bring any charge against God's elect? It is God who justifies. Who is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died, more than that, who was raised, who is at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us" (Rom. 8:31-34). Only God has the power to save and condemn.
We must use this information to educate others. More than ever, we must contend earnestly for the faith and resist the growing pressure to unite with the Roman Catholic Church as a valid expression of Christianity. Evangelicals need to know that we can never have unity with a religion that condemned the Reformers for believing that sinners are saved by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone, according to Scripture alone, for the glory of God alone. Let us all endeavor to defend the glory and honor of our Lord Jesus Christ, the sanctity of His Church, and the purity of His Gospel.

Pope Marks the Reformation With Call for Unity
Pope Francis marked the 499th anniversary of the Reformation
with an ecumenical prayer gathering in Sweden, where he called
for reconciliation between Lutherans and Roman Catholics. The
Lutherans should have learned from Martin Luther when a previous
pope tried to reverse the Reformation with deceptive language.
Luther warned, "Popish writers pretend that they have always taught, what we now teach, concerning faith and good works, and that they
are unjustly accused of the contrary, thus the wolf puts on the sheep's skin till he gains admission into the fold." Francis is a different wolf, but wears the same sheep's skin in
his attempt to re-unite the Lutherans with "holy Mother, the church."

MINISTRY UPDATE FROM PILGRIMS COVENANT CHURCH
October 29, 2016
Dear Friends,
For those who are interested, here is a summary of our Pilgrims Covenant Church public ministry work since I last sent out such a report in July. As always, please let us know if, for any reason, you would just as soon not receive these reports. It would bother me if I knew we have been sending out these reports to someone who would rather not receive them. But, for those of you who do enjoy such an update, I hope you will find the following summary encouraging reading during these not always encouraging days.
Our billboard campaign (see pictures) continues on full steam, with each billboard in each location up for a minimum of four weeks. I say minimum because, in the providence of God, some have remained up longer. Usually when a billboard remains up longer than the contracted time, it is because no one else has rented the space. But, the strange thing about how this has gone with us is that these billboards of ours which have stayed up longer than the purchased time are in very good locations and have been up at very good times of the year, traffic-wise. For instance, as I write this, one of our billboards in Monroe has been up now for eight weeks! So far, we have had billboards up in Brodhead, Monroe (3), Menomonee, Beloit, Wausau, Platteville, Janesville, Dodgeville, Fond du Lac, Gratiot, and Appleton. Currently, we have a billboard scheduled to go up in Watertown in mid-April, 2017, but are looking for locations for more billboards.
 |
We have been selecting all of our billboards with great care, and all have the same strengths, but some have additional advantages. To give several examples of what I mean about additional advantages, our billboard in Fond du Lac was not only easily read by persons in cars passing by on the busy highway along which it stood but also visible to boaters, fishermen and from cottages on the immediately adjacent Fond du Lac river! Our billboard in Dodgeville was not only on the busy intersection of two state highways which meet on the north side of the city, but it was also in the immediate area of the county jail and situated so that persons being transported to the jail would read it, as would those visiting them. Two of our three billboards in Monroe were up during Cheese Days when Monroe was swarming with hordes of people from all over the state, even the nation, and believe it or not, even from other nations.

For one reason, or another, our fall gospel lit dropping campaign has been less than dynamic, but we are working on it. So far we have only made it to Janesville, Wisconsin and Pecatonica, Illinois. In both towns, we left our gospel booklet From Death unto Life on the doors of businesses and homes. We are certainly hoping to lit drop more towns before the snow flies.
On July 30, some of us handed out From Death unto Life booklets to shoppers at the Beloit farmers market. We also held two of our large Scriptures signs, one on each end of the market which is in the downtown area of Beloit. Persons passing by in cars also saw one of our Scripture signs. We were able to hand out 817 gospel booklets. One person told us that in previous years a Christian family have handed out gospel tracts at the market but that they had not done so this year. So, it may well be that the Lord moved us to fill in the gap left by that family. Whoever they were, they belonged to a rare breed of Christians who actually take the gospel out into the world and share it with the lost.

On Labor Day, we shared the gospel at the Janesville Labor Day Parade. As has become our method of operation, we “ran the parade route,” as we say, handing out gospel tracts. In truth, we do not run but actually work methodically, thoroughly, and steadily the length of a parade with a person walking in the street along the curb on each side, handing out tracts; and then others on the sidewalks on each side, reaching with tracts those who are not accessible from the street side. At the Janesville parade, we were able to give out 2,456 Heaven or Hell gospel tracts.

The 2016 biennial Cheese Days in Monroe took place September 16-18. Various members of our little church worked hard all weekend, some both holding Scriptures signs and handing out tracts, others concentrating strictly on getting tracts into the hands of as many people as possible. Some of us were out Friday for the opening festivities and events. We divided up in teams and covered Saturday continuously from 8:45 AM until 5:15 PM.

On the Lord’s Day, we held church early in order to get our teams in place on time to cover the Cheese Days parade route, which is nearly two miles long. We had teams run the parade, working it over well, end to end, handing out gospel tracts. Several of our members also held a Scripture sign and handed out tracts to the crowd gathered on the town square, which is shut off to vehicular traffic and set up with stages, food booths, various attractions, and of course, beer vendors. In fact, persons are allowed to carry open beer containers around with them on the square, so as not to lose any drinking time and at the same time increase the revenues of the liquor peddlers.

Saturday tract distribution at Cheese Days
|
 |
Late Sunday afternoon, as one of our ladies who is so faithful in gospel labor put it, by the time the last cheese curd was eaten, the last polka was played, the last beer was drunk, the last alphorn was sounded, we had handed out 13,450 Christ Jesus Came into the World to Save Sinners gospel tracts. That is, 13,450 people were given, and received, one by one that newly written gospel tract (pccmonroe.org/evangelism/savesinners.htm).
 |

|
As you might imagine, over the many hours we ministered to the Cheese Days crowd, we had a variety of reactions to our Scripture signs and some pretty interesting interactions as we shared the gospel. One new evangelical woman who attends the large Monroe Bible church, a church well on the way toward apostasy, informed one of our men that he was “very wrong” to be handing out gospel tracts and instead should simply be “involved in the community” to reach others. Young people from that church worked in the Swiss Colony hospitality tent and wore shirts emblazoned with the slogan “Live Generously!” Those same young people were extremely cold toward us; and as they passed by our Scripture signs, their countenances betrayed hostility, an evidence of the sort of preaching those poor young people have been getting from their unfaithful minister. Other MBC members also exhibited their distaste for our simple, sincere, scriptural gospel message and labors.
A local charismatic man walked up to me, slammed to the pavement the jacket he was carrying, and threw a sort of fit over some imagined wrongs committed against him by Christians like me in his past. Quite frankly, he made little sense. But then again, most people who have drunk as much beer as he obviously had generally do not make the most sense and often are unreasonable. Later, this man came back and sort of apologized before hotly engaging me in a disputation over the charismatic teaching concerning gifts of the Spirit such as tongues and even raising the dead. I shared with him the scriptural evidence that those gifts were limited to the apostolic time and why. His defense of the charismatic error was to insist I had not shown him from the Scriptures what I had shown him and then to give a demonstration of supposedly speaking in tongues.
On a more cheerful, hopeful note, an elderly Lutheran lady whom one of our women engaged in friendly conversation did not know, and apparently had not heard about, the necessity of being born again. She asked, “What exactly does that mean?” and was told exactly what it means. A man who rebuked one of our young lads for handing out tracts later returned to shake his hand and share a few kind words. Apparently his conscience would not give him rest until he did so, and I hope the Holy Spirit does the same thing with the gospel he was exposed to. A young man (perhaps a wounded combat vet) with amputated hands and forearms, as well as prosthetic legs, freely accepted a tract, gripping it between the stumps of his arms, after the woman with him had refused one.

Of course, there are other encouraging accounts I could share; but I am sure all of you are very encouraged to simply know that so many tens of thousands of lost sinners had the gospel shared—by signs, tracts, and personal conversation—with them over Cheese Days weekend here in Monroe. We are sure the Lord will, in His own time, bless and prosper our gospel sowing. To Christ Jesus, the Word of Life and Lord of the Harvest, be the glory!
On Saturday, October 22, a group of us traveled to Whitewater, Wisconsin to hand out gospel tracts to those attending the University of Wisconsin—Whitewater homecoming parade. We were loaded for bear, carrying 3,200 tracts split among us so that none of us would run out as we ran the parade route. This was our first ministry at this particular event. We had pictured teaming multitudes lined up along the parade route. What we found were small, spaced-out little knots of people here and there along the route. Suffice it to say, we covered the parade route very thoroughly indeed. When we reached the end, feeling a bit stunned by the sparse turn out, we decided to simply walk in the street, on each side of the floats and student groups actually in the fairly good-sized parade coming at us. We handed out tracts as we went. By this unorthodox method, we were able to get out quite a few additional tracts, and no one really said anything to us about how we did it. In the end, we were able to hand out a total of 623 Christ Jesus Came into the World to Save Sinners tracts.

That’s it for now. In the past couple of months, we have purchased 60,000 more of our gospel tracts and gospel booklets. We are most thankful to the Lord for providing our small church the means to do so, and of course, we are grateful to those whom He has used for that very purpose. Thanks also to those who remember to the Lord our gospel work. We have more such work planned yet for 2016. There is no other means than the gospel shared out in the world by those faithful, sanctified, scriptural churches yet in the old paths, the gospel of Christ by which men dead in trespasses and sins are saved and regenerated as new creatures in Christ—even those who are enemies of Christ and His true church. And I know of no other weapon but the sword of the Spirit which can dispel the growing darkness of our country, defeat the growing tyranny, and rout that spiritual adversary of the Lord’s blood-bought people.
Sincerely,
Ralph Ovadal, pastor
