Remember that guy we warned you about in 2014? The guy Al Mohler nominated for the Southern Baptist Convention presidency? The guy JD Greear nominated for a second term? Yeah, that’s him. The one that joined hands with the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) and Mike Bickle of IHOPKC and downplayed the authority of Scripture as a “matter of secondary importance.” The one who promoted several cult leaders and dangerous heresies such as the “sow a seed” prosperity gospel. (For a recap of Ronnie Floyd’s SBC presidency, see here.)
Floyd has found a new home…as a different kind of president. The National Day of Prayer, an ecumenical NAR inspired dominionist seven-mountains mandate organization that gathers millions of people from around the nation every year on the first Thursday of May to pray together in spiritual unity–to whichever God you serve–recently named Floyd as the new big cheese. Their web site states,

We want to share with you some very exciting news being announced today across the nation. As you know, National Day of Prayer has been in a period of transition. After seeking the Lord’s leading, and with much godly counsel, our National Day of Prayer Board of Directors is pleased to announce that, effective today, Dr. Ronnie Floyd will assume the role of President of the National Day of Prayer.

As we step into this new phase of carrying on this mission and legacy, we believe that we couldn’t have found a man more passionate or dedicated to prayer and spiritual awakening than Ronnie Floyd. Throughout his life he has demonstrated that he is a leader with a unique calling to unify others to pray for our nation and its spiritual awakening.

We will never know on this side of heaven how many lives have been impacted by this powerful movement of prayer. We are grateful for leaders like Vonette Bright and Shirley Dobson, who provided leadership for decades, and Anne Graham Lotz, who provided leadership in a major time of transition in our ministry. We are confident that Dr. Floyd will build on their legacy, and lead us forward in these turbulent times to become a movement of prayer that goes far beyond a day in May. Never before has our nation needed prayer like we do today, and the need for National Day of Prayer in our nation has never been greater.

Giving Floyd glowing accolades, surprisingly, is Ken Ham of Answers in Genesis. He states,

The National Day of Prayer is such an important day for our nation. Millions of Christians unite each year on the first Thursday of May to pray for our leaders and our nation. We need prayer more than ever as religious freedom and freedom of speech are increasingly attacked, so-called racial tensions are rising, and our government is very divided. Mark May 3, 2018, on your calendars and join with millions across the nation in lifting America before the Lord, as we should do every day.

It’s sad to see that so many religious leaders have made an idol out of religious freedom and ecumenism. The National Day of Prayer does not distinguish between true and false expressions of Christianity. Heck, it doesn’t even distinguish between other religions altogether. The National Day of Prayer includes Catholics, Protestants, Muslims, Hindus, and just about any other aberrant anti-Christ religion in the world who will stand in front courthouses, government buildings, churches, streets…anywhere, and join hands in prayer to their false gods in the name of “restoring America.”

God is not going to restore America through a false Jesus or a false gospel. Ecumenism is sin.

Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership has righteousness with lawlessness? Or what fellowship has light with darkness? What accord has Christ with Belial? Or what portion does a believer share with an unbeliever? What agreement has the temple of God with idols? — 2 Corinthians 6:14-16

O' DEATH: RALPH STANLEY'S FUNERAL PROVIDES INSIGHT INTO THE RELIGION OF FREEMASONRY~UNIVERSALIST "PRIMITIVE BAPTIST" ALSO A MASON

 

O' DEATH: RALPH STANLEY'S FUNERAL PROVIDES INSIGHT INTO THE RELIGION OF FREEMASONRY

“Freemasonry has a religious service to commit the body of a deceased brother to the dust whence it came, and to speed the liberated spirit back to the Great Source of Light. Many Freemasons make this flight with no other guarantee of a safe landing other than their belief in the religion of Freemasonry” Henry Wilson Coil, Coil’s Masonic Encyclopedia

The issue of whether or not Freemasonry is a “religion” has for years been a hotly debated topic among critics of the Craft and its apologists.  Critics of Freemasonry, supported by the writings of Masonic authors such as Coil and Mackey, argue that Freemasonry is, in fact, religious.  Having arrived at that conclusion its critics argue that Freemasonry is fundamentally incompatible with Christian faith and practice; for a Christian to have more than one religion or to participate in a spiritual enterprise which contradicts Biblical teachings is to engage in sinful syncretism.  The defenders of the Lodge argue that, although Freemasonry requires its adherents to believe in a Supreme Being, the Craft is not a religion.  Instead, they argue that Masonry is a universal Brotherhood which includes members of many different religions and is not a religion in and of itself.  Given that Freemasons publically disagree amongst themselves as to whether or not Freemasonry is a religion, Christians are wise to examine the Masonic evidence for themselves and form their own conclusions.  Unfortunately, because Freemasonry is a secret society, such evidence can be hard to find.  Perhaps the best source of evidence for the Masonic belief that is available to the public is the Masonic funeral ceremony.  The Masonic funeral rite, to which every Master Mason is entitled, is often performed in public and in front of non-Masons.  In 2016, beloved bluegrass and gospel singer Ralph Stanley died at the age of 89.  Stanley was a Master Mason and Shriner.  His funeral service, which included the Masonic funeral rite, has been posted on YouTube.  Stanley’s provides a very public glimpse into the spiritual nature of Freemasonry.
According to his obituary, Stanley was “of the Primitive Baptist faith”.  Thus, it should come as no surprise that his funeral service was “given unto God” in a prayer which was made in the name of Jesus.  After this prayer, the funeral was turned over to the Masonic Lodge in order for Stanley’s Masonic brethren to perform the Masonic funeral rite over his body.  During the rite, the Masonic speaker presented several symbols of spiritual significance, one of which was an evergreen that was, according to the Mason, a symbol of “Masonic faith”.  At no time during the Masonic rite, which contained references to the divine and to the “general resurrection” of the dead was the name of Jesus mentioned.  Stanley was referred to as “Brother Ralph.”  A prayer was offered by the Masons.  Much Biblical language was utilized during the rite but at no time was the rite overtly “Christian”.  Mention was made of Stanley’s standing before “his god”.
After the Masonic rite ended, Stanley’s obituary was read and the funeral proceeded.  Observers, especially Christian observers, could be led to believe that the Masonic rite was inherently Christian.  It was performed after a non-Mason convened the funeral service in the name of Jesus and contained many biblical and spiritual allusions.  However, the rite is fundamentally non-Christian in nature.  This is because any Master Mason, whether or not he is a Christian, is entitled to the same funeral rite.  For this reason, the Masonic rite cannot have any mention of the name of the Christian God, Jesus Christ.  At the same time, the rite is fundamentally religious.  It makes mention of the afterlife, the deceased’s relationship with “his god”, the resurrection of the dead, and spiritual purity.  No one can argue with any credibility that a funeral service opened with a prayer in Jesus’ name is not a fundamentally religious exercise.  At the same time, no one can argue with any credibility that a funeral rite, performed at that same service, which itself contained a prayer, is not a fundamentally religious exercise.  If Freemasonry is not religious, why then does it have a funeral rite with which to begin?  That Freemasonry is a form of “church” is implicitly apparent in practices and the actions of its adherents.  Very telling was the request of Stanley’s family to send donations in lieu of flowers, not to Stanley’s Primitive Baptist Church or a Christian missions organization, but to the Shriner’s hospital.
Christians with Masonic relatives, whom they know to be “good” church-going persons, are often taken aback at the revelation that Freemasonry is a religion and is incompatible with Christian faith and practice.  Rather than judge Masonry by the standard of biblical teaching, they judge the craft by the affections they have for their loved one.  Christians should do well to remember that everyone in Hell is someone’s loved one.  Christians would also do well to remember that Masonry espouses universalism, teaching that a man can go to Heaven without a saving relationship with Jesus Christ.  Fans of Ralph Stanley’s gospel music may be surprised to learn that Stanley was himself a Universalist.  Not only was he a Freemason but his particular strain of Primitive Baptist faith is a Universalist one.  Thus, it’s no surprise that Stanley was comfortable as a member of Clintwood Masonic Lodge #66 and the Kazim Shrine in Roanoke, Virginia.  Christians who know of fellow-church members who are Freemasons should ask themselves why the Masons they know feel at home both in their church and in the lodge.  The answer could be startling.

POLICE DETECTIVE ARRESTS, DRAGS SCREAMING NURSE OUT OF HOSPITAL FOR NOT ALLOWING BLOOD TO BE DRAWN FROM UNCONSCIOUS CRASH VICTIM WITHOUT WARRANT

 

 

POLICE DETECTIVE ARRESTS, DRAGS SCREAMING NURSE OUT OF HOSPITAL FOR NOT ALLOWING BLOOD TO BE DRAWN FROM UNCONSCIOUS CRASH VICTIM WITHOUT WARRANT

 SALT LAKE CITY, Utah — A police detective 
in Utah is now under investigation after angrily arresting a nurse and 
dragging her screaming out of the hospital when she declined to allow 
him to withdraw blood from an unconscious crash victim without a 
warrant, as per the police department’s agreement with the hospital.

According to reports, on July 26, Utah Highway Patrol was involved in a chase with driver Marcos Torres, 26, in Cache County after he was reported for driving recklessly. Torres soon crossed into oncoming traffic and smashed into a semi head-on, which was driven by 43-year-old William Gray. The truck burst into flames.
 While Torres died from his injuries on the scene, Gray, who works as a reserve police officer when not driving semis, was transported to University of Utah Hospital, where he was treated for severe burns.

Salt Lake Police Detective Jeff Payne later arrived at the hospital’s burn unit to request samples of Gray’s blood to determine if he had drugs in his system, as directed by another agency. However, on-duty nurse Alex Wubbels explained to Payne that he needed to meet one of three conditions as per the police department’s agreement with the hospital: 1) obtain consent from the patient 2) obtain a warrant or 3) the patient must be under arrest.
As Gray was not under arrest since he was the victim in the incident, and as he was in a comatose state and was therefore not able to give consent, Wubbels outlined to Payne that he would need to obtain an electronic warrant. She proceeded to contact numerous supervisors to ask what to do about the situation.
Becoming unhappy with her answers, Detective Payne repeatedly threatened that he was going to arrest Wubbels and take her to jail.
“I either go away with blood in vials or body in tow,” he warned.

With another staff member at her side to provide assistance, Wubbels soon printed out the hospital policy for blood draws and read it to Payne, advising him that he needs to meet one of the three conditions.
“This is something that you guys agreed to with this hospital,” she explained calmly.
Wubbels also placed one of the supervisors on speaker phone to talk to Payne about the matter himself.
“The patient can’t consent, he’s told me repeatedly that he doesn’t have a warrant, and the patient is not under arrest,” she explained to the supervisor. “I’m just trying to do what I’m supposed to do, that’s all.”
“So, I take it [that] without those in place, I’m not going to get blood. Am I fair to surmise that?” Payne asked.
The supervisor, who advised Wubbels that she was simply relaying the information, then asked Payne why he was “blaming the messenger,” and he replied that it was because she was the one who was denying his request.
The supervisor then warned Payne sternly, “Sir, you’re making a huge mistake because you’re threatening a nurse.”
Payne snapped.
“We’re done!” he declared, grabbing for Wubbels phone. “You’re under arrest!”
She backed away from the officer, but Payne continued to move toward Wubbels and within seconds, he physically grabbed the nurse and forced her out the door.
“Somebody help me! Stop! Stop! I did nothing wrong!” she exclaimed, screaming. “You’re assaulting me! Stop!”
Other hospital employees tried to reason with Payne, who handcuffed Wubbles, but to no avail.
“She’s under arrest,” Payne said.
“For doing her job?” the employee asked.
“I’ve done my job; she’s done hers,” Payne replied.
Watch a video of the incident released by the Salt Lake Tribune here.
Wubbles was released 20 minutes later, and has not been charged with any crime. Payne’s superiors are now investigating, and while he is still on active duty, he has been suspended from the police department’s blood draw program.
According to the Salt Lake Tribune, Payne outlined in a report on the incident that he had been advised by Lt. James Tracy, the commander on duty that evening, to arrest Wubbles for interfering with a police investigation if she declined to allow him to take the blood sample. He said that he had been told that “implied consent” was sufficient.
On Thursday, Wubbles went public for the first time in a press conference, during which she called for better police training. She said that she never told the officer no, but explained what he needed to do under the agreement.
“If they needed blood, then they needed to go through to proper channels to take it,” Wubbles said. “I can’t sit on this video and not attempt to speak out both to re-educate and inform.”
The Salt Lake City Police Department is re-training its officers on the blood collection policy, according to local television station KSL-TV. Watch a police press conference here in which police apologized for the detective’s actions. 
The outlet also notes that Wubbles and her attorney are concerned after hearing Payne, who also works as an ambulance driver, stating to another officer that he wondered how the arrest would affect his other job.
“I’ll bring ’em all the transients and take the good patients elsewhere,” he was captured stating on his body camera.

 Arrest of University Hospital nurse Alex Wubbels

 Alex Wubbels, a nurse at University Hospital in Salt Lake City, was arrested after explaining to police that she couldn't draw a blood sample from an unconscious person. A Salt Lake City police detective asked for a blood sample. After explaining to the detective that the police needed a warrant, consent from the unconscious patient or that the patient needed to be under arrest before the blood sample could be drawn, she was arrested.

'This isn't right"

 

Police Arrest Nurse in Utah For Refusing To Draw Blood from Unconscious Patient 

 Nurse Alex Wubbels of Salt Lake City, Utah was arrested at her place of employment, a hospital, for refusing to draw blood from an unconscious patient to give to the police. Apparently the police thought she was interfering with an investigation. But the reality is that she was following not only the rules of the hospital, but the law of the land. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, also known as HIPAA, has clear rules that regulate privacy of patients. Most of the act is about digital information being distributed, but it also covers physical information which includes things like blood samples. The entire incident was captured on police body cam video. Most likely from onlookers’ cell phones and also hospital surveillance cameras. In the video, Wubbels is clearly seen showing the police officer what the law is on a sheet of paper that she had printed out. Blood samples can only be taken from a patient if there is a warrant, if the patient gives consent, or if the patient is under arrest. None of those three requirements were present. Therefore, the police request to get a blood sample was denied. As a result, the officer seemed to become enraged and proceeded to arrest the nurse. Earlier in the week, there had been a high-speed police chase. The police were after a man named Marcos Torres. As he was in his vehicle trying to escape police at a high rate of speed, he crashes head-on into the semi trailer of reserve police officer named William Gray. Torres dies and Gray becomes severely injured with burns and more. The police, most likely in an effort to mitigate damages that they may face when Gray awakes from his coma, want to get his blood sample to determine if he was under the influence at the time of the crash. Which is what set the whole unfortunate chain of events up. So in their effort to minimize their liability in Gray’s recovery, they may have incurred many more expenses than they would have ever imagined. A lawsuit will most likely come from the nurse, the hospital, and Gray. This case does not represent the vast majority of officers who behave in a proper and correct way. But what it does represent is an example of when people do the wrong thing.

CZECH PM: "WHEN WE SEE PROBLEMS IN OTHER EUROPEAN COUNTRIES, WE DO NOT WANT MUSLIMS IN THE CZECH REPUBLIC"

 

CZECH PM: "WHEN WE SEE PROBLEMS IN OTHER EUROPEAN COUNTRIES, WE DO NOT WANT MUSLIMS IN THE CZECH REPUBLIC"

Noting that there was only a small, non-radicalised Muslim community in the Central European country, the prime minister told Austrian newspaper Die Presse: “When we see problems in other European countries, we do not want Muslims in the Czech Republic.”

Like Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban and Polish leader Beata Sydlo, Czech Prime Minister Bohuslav Sobatka has not budged in the face of political correctness and pressure. His priority, like theirs, remains to protect the people of his country.
Sobatka will undoubtedly continue to be challenged as an “Islamophobe” by the radical left agenda drivers. A shocking report emerged in May about a Czech girl scout who confronted Neo-Nazi demonstrators and stated that even though immigrants may rape her, “she’ll get over it.” Insanity knows no boundaries in radical left ideology. Unfortunately, innocent citizens are being sacrificed to a destructive social experiment that protects Islamic supremacists over law-abiding citizens of the West who value the price paid for democratic freedoms.
“‘We Do Not Want More Muslims in Czech Republic’: Prime Minister”, Victoria Friedman, Breitbart,  August 30, 2017:

Prime Minister Bohuslav Sobotka does not want the Muslim community to grow in the Czech Republic, saying he has seen what problems large Muslim populations have caused in other European countries.
Noting that there was only a small, non-radicalised Muslim community in the Central European country, the prime minister told Austrian newspaper Die Presse: “When we see problems in other European countries, we do not want Muslims in the Czech Republic.”
“We would greatly appreciate if Europe would better protect its external border. Receiving refugees should always be the responsibility of nation states,” Mr. Sobotka added.
In comments alluding to crime, sex attacks, and terrorism committed by Middle Eastern and African migrants in Western Europe since 2015, the prime minister said: “In Europe too often we see problems with the integration of people coming from another cultural or religious environment.”
The Czech Republic has around 22,000 Muslims living in the country who are described as well-integrated and not particularly committed to or fundamentalist in the expression of their faith.
The comments come in the same week Czech President Miloš Zeman defended burkini bans at swimming pools across the country, saying: “In Czech swimming pools there is no reason for anyone bathing in Arab clothes.”
Sobotka pointed to the country’s commitment to assisting in tackling the migrant crisis, telling the Austrian newspaper the Czech Republic is financially supporting the Libyan coastguard and migrant camps as well as sending policemen to assist border patrols in the Balkans.
Like the other three countries in the Visegrád Group (Slovakia, Poland, and Hungary), the Czech Republic rejects the European Union’s forced migrant relocation programme.
The prime minister made the point that the country is “helping people coming from Eastern Europe”.
Similarly, President Zeman has said people fleeing the Ukraine, following the Euromaidan protests, should be included in the migrant redistribution programme given the numbers absorbed by the Visegrád group. Poland has issued nearly 1.3 million visas to Ukrainians last year, including those claiming asylum…..
