The latest on the Rose Parade and why we need you now

Monday, December 30, 2013, 9:10 pm | Randy Thomasson

It’s the biggest controversy in California right now. I’m talking about the Rose Parade featuring a “live gay wedding” on a float as a role model for every child to see. It’s a direct attack against the family values — the moral values — you and I hold dear.

Parents are outraged. And SaveCalifornia.com is promoting an all-out boycott of this anti-family spectacle. We’re helping get out the word, loud and clear!

This is what I talked about today on 3 radio stations in Greater Los Angeles (KBRT, KNX, KABC), and in other media sources after being quoted in City News Service, the L.A. area newswire that goes to lots of media. Tomorrow I’ll be on Sacramento TV news alerting even more parents.

This is just one example of SaveCalifornia.com’s work that many have come to know and appreciate. Being a strong, bold voice for families, and fighting for the values you hold dear.

But what you may not know is that we depend on gifts from everyday people like you. And that we are very much behind in meeting our year-end needs. To continue fighting strong for you and your family, SaveCalifornia.com needs your help… gifts of all sizes from people who share our values. And we need your gift before Dec. 31 ends.

I know you’re busy, and receiving other requests for donations. But I hope you’ll realize that SaveCalifornia.com is worthy of your support, and that we have real needs, right now.

So please…if you haven’t done so yet, will you take a moment to financially empower us so we can continue serving you and your family in 2014? Thank you for whatever you can give today.

Please give your best gift to SaveCalifornia.com (your gift is tax-deductible)

When you stand with SaveCalifornia.com, you’re saying, “YES, I support you fighting for my values.” Because together, we’re standing strong for marriage and family, parental rights, children in and out of the womb, religious freedom, financial freedom, and back-to-basics education.

I just recorded a new video message (2 minutes) that I hope will encourage you and inspire you to stand with us: 

It’s my privilege to serve you. THANK YOU for considering how you can help today.

Newsom:’God forbid’ Prop. 8 be upheld

Friday, June 14, 2013, 2:31 pm | Randy Thomasson

GavinNewsomOpposingProp8
In the biblical context, blasphemy is an attitude of disrespect
that finds expression in an act directed against the character of God.
Holman Bible Dictionary (1991)

California Lieutenant Governor Gavin Newsom, a Democrat and the former mayor of San Francisco, is an immoral and blasphemous man.

The latest is — in his support of unnatural, unhealthy, unbiblical, and tyrannical homosexual “marriages,” and his desire that the U.S. Supreme Court will this month strike down California’s Proposition 8 reserving marriage licenses for only “a man and a woman” — Newsom has told the PBS NewsHour “God forbid they do the wrong thing” by upholding Prop. 8.

“God forbid”? Mr. Newsom, haven’t you heard that Creator God is clearly against homosexuality and against any marriage not between a man and a woman? From Genesis to Revelation, homosexuality is called a sin by the King of the Universe.

No person who believes in the Bible should put up with Newsom’s blasphemy. Replacing God’s word with his self-styled Catholicism, Newsom holds that Holy God actually likes homosexuality. Isn’t it time to put his claims to the test?

What the Bible says against homosexuality | Why homosexuality is not a “civil right”

But Newsom has put himself on the throne for years. In 2004, when the then-San Francisco mayor printed up homosexual “marriage” licenses, he was on Larry King Live opposite Pastor John MacArthur, who challenged Newsom, “Do you believe the Bible is the word of God?” Admitting “I guess I do,” Newsom then blasted the word of God as “old constructs” that have “held back society,” despite acknowledging that his homosexual agenda is “inconsistent…with your faith.” Transcript | Video

NEWSOM: The point is some of these arguments, they’re reminiscent. With respect to the pastor, I just, you know, I’m a practicing Catholic. I got married in the church two plus years. I don’t see what we’re doing in terms of advancing the bond of love and monogamy and extending that to family, families of same-sex in any way, shape or form takes away anything from the church or the sanctity of the union that my wife and I have.

MACARTHUR: I would just like to ask the mayor as a practicing Catholic, do you believe the Bible is the word of God?

NEWSOM: Pastor, I’m not going to get into a theological debate with you.

MACARTHUR: That’s not a theological debate. That’s just a straight question, do you believe the Bible is the authoritative word of God?

NEWSOM: With respect, I guess I do. Now the response.

MACARTHUR: Then the Bible says when God created man, he said one man, one woman, cleave together, for life. That’s a family. Jesus in the New Testament reaffirms that, all of the writers of the Old and New Testament affirm it. Adultery, bestiality, homosexuality was punishable by death according to the Old Testament law because it was so serious in those early years because it literally shattered the hope of civilization. The New Testament us, of course, grace, those sins, our sins, they are forgivable. Jesus died to redeem us from those sins. We’re all sinners.

KING: What does the state have to do with it?

MACARTHUR: But the point at this juncture is he’s representing the state, he’s coming back and saying I’m a Catholic, and I’m a Catholic and somehow this fits into my Catholicism and I’m saying what’s your authority then?

NEWSOM: I guess the bottom line is we’re living and advancing together across all kinds of differences, pastor. It is an extraordinary, miraculous thing to come out here in San Francisco and I think the world looks to us to see that it’s possible to live together and advance together across our differences, and I’m proud to represent a city that has diverse points of view, open points of view, that doesn’t believe in discrimination and has evolved from the old constructs that I think have frankly held back society and many that are inconsistent, yes, with your faith and I respect the difference of opinion.

“Therefore I say to you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven men.  Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, either in this age or in the age to come.”
 Jesus Christ in Matthew 12:31-32 NKJV

What you get with the Democrats

Democrats

What do you get with a Democrat supermajority in Sacramento? A virtual guarantee that bad bills harming children and families will pass the California Legislature.

Demonstrating a serious misunderstanding of human design, natural sex, religious freedom, and personal responsibility, these Democrat-authored bills are advancing through Democrat-controlled committees in a torrid quest to replace wisdom with foolishness and moral virtues with licentiousness:

AB 154 permits nurse practitioners, nurse midwives, and physician assistants to perform suction abortions, which tortuously dismember pre-born babies in the womb (committee vote)

AB 926 permits young women to be paid to have their human eggs extracted (and destroyed) for the purpose of “medical research,” which also sets the stage for future human cloning. These egg “donations” harm women’s health, can result in sterility, and denies the participants informed consent. (committee vote) (“eggsploitation” explained)

AB 999 hands out condoms to homosexuals in state prisons, spreading more disease (committee vote)

SB 323 punishes the Boy Scouts by removing their tax-deductible, non-profit status unless they allow homosexual scoutmasters (committee vote)

AB 1266 forces K-12 public schools to permit biological boys in girls’ restrooms, showers, clubs, and on girls’ sports teams; and biological girls in boys’ restrooms, showers, clubs, and on boys’ sports teams (committee vote) (existing sexual indoctrination laws)

AB 460 requires insurance policies to cover homosexual “infertility,” despite Nature’s unchangeable laws requiring a man and a woman to conceive (bill status)

AB 48 prevents families from having the same rounds of ammunition with their home-defense gun as criminals have with their guns (committee vote)

This is what California’s Democrat-controlled Legislature is doing. Now you can inform others.

Irresponsible individual voters ought to abstain rather than vote badly. This thesis may seem anti-democratic. Yet it is really a claim about voter responsibility and how voters can fail to meet this responsibility. On my view, voters are not obligated to vote, but if they do vote, they owe it to others and themselves to be adequately rational, unbiased, just, and informed about their political beliefs.
