The darkness has not yet prevailed

7/18/2017

Tom Hoefling:

It seems to me that when a professing Christian calls this a "post-Christian" country that this amounts to a surrender and a self-indictment.

This always has been, and is, a Christian country. When it is "post-Christian" it will have ceased to be. We're not there yet.

As long as there is still salt and light present, the corruption and the darkness has not yet prevailed.

Replace every Republican who won't Repeal Obamacare

Tom Hoefling:

Have you yet made it crystal clear to your elected representatives that if they support the further entrenchment of socialized medicine they will never again receive a single vote from you?

We have the power to return to the Constitution

7/17/2017

Tom Hoefling:

The principled logic Madison used in Federalist #44 applies no matter which branch of government is getting out of line. When any officer of our government, in any branch, misuses or usurps power, We the People have the ability, and the duty, to rein them in. If we have unfaithful representatives, we must replace them with faithful representatives. It's as simple as that.

"What is to be the consequence, in case the Congress shall misconstrue this part [the necessary and proper clause] of the Constitution and exercise powers not warranted by its true meaning, I answer the same as if they should misconstrue or enlarge any other power vested in them [...] the success of the usurpation will depend on the executive and judiciary departments, which are to expound and give effect to the legislative acts; and in a last resort a remedy must be obtained from the people, who can by the elections of more faithful representatives, annul the acts of the usurpers." -- James Madison, Federalist No. 44

"A constitution defines and limits the powers of the government it creates. It therefore follows, as a natural and also a logical result, that the governmental exercise of any power not authorized by the constitution is an assumed power, and therefore illegal." -- Thomas Paine, Constitutions, Governments, and Charters, 1805

Socialism

Socialism is devouring our republic, and it ain't just Democrats who are enjoying the meal.

Impoverished, lonely wards of the loveless state

5/6/2017

Tom Hoefling

Socialism robs men and women of their best earthly blessings. Because of its humanistic basis, it is intrinsically, inevitably, destructive of life, liberty, private property, and self-government. You have to be willfully blind not to see this as you look back over the history of the last century.

But the poison of socialism goes even deeper, right down to the very roots of liberty. It is by its nature destructive of the individual, the family, the church, and the community. People's understanding that it is their responsibility to care for themselves, their families, and their neighbors, is destroyed. Heaven's economy is "give and it shall be given unto you," but statism replaces our love and concern for one another with a counterfeit. In place of real charity, which can only come from a willing, loving, uncoerced heart, it substitutes the sterility, the unlove, of the welfare office.

Instead of being beloved brothers and sisters who take care of each another, we are, as a people, becoming, inexorably, sadly, impoverished, lonely wards of the loveless state.

Fight socialism like you would fight the plague. Spiritually, morally, intellectually, politically, financially, physically, it is deadly. And the epidemic is in our time far advanced.

Protect the Children: A MUST-SEE PRESENTATION

4/25/2017

By Equal Protection for Posterity

It is not His will that one should perish

4/23/2017

Tom Hoefling:

Regulationism gives the wolves statutory permission to slaughter and eat the ninety-nine, while claiming to be seeking to protect the one by doing so.

But, in fact, the regulationists have abandoned the principle that the one, every single one, must be protected from the wolves, and therefore, because of their compromise, all one hundred continue to be slaughtered.

If you have the governmental power to attempt to regulate mass murder, you have the power to protect all of the sheep.

“Take heed that you do not despise one of these little ones, for I say to you that in heaven their angels always see the face of My Father who is in heaven. For the Son of Man has come to save that which was lost. “What do you think? If a man has a hundred sheep, and one of them goes astray, does he not leave the ninety-nine and go to the mountains to seek the one that is straying? And if he should find it, assuredly, I say to you, he rejoices more over that sheep than over the ninety-nine that did not go astray. Even so it is not the will of your Father who is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish. (Matthew 18:10-14)

The Utilitarian regulatory "strategy" of the "pro-life movement," which consistently fails the equal protection test, turns the injunction of the Lord on its head.

He warned us:

“Take heed that you do not despise one of these little ones, for I say to you that in heaven their angels always see the face of My Father who is in heaven....it is not the will of your Father who is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish."

To simply enforce the explicit equal protection requirements of our Constitution would be to bring our country back into line with the heart, the will, of the One Who created us.

"No person shall be deprived of life without due process of law."

"No State shall deprive any person of life without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."

Until that national repentance toward God has occurred, and our Constitution is once again respected in this country, the blood of the innocents will continue to cry out for retribution.

"God who gave us life gave us liberty. Can the liberties of a nation be secure when we have removed a conviction that these liberties are the gift of God? Indeed I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just, that his justice cannot sleep forever." (Thomas Jefferson)

True humility

4/16/2017

Tom Hoefling:

Pride claims to be nine feet tall when God actually made it six feet tall. False humility claims to be three feet tall when God actually made it six feet tall. True humility recognizes that it is six feet tall, exactly the way God made it, but doesn't make a big deal of it. Then it bows down and washes feet.

Defend equal protection

4/16/2017

Tom Hoefling:

If the Supreme Court has the authority to declare some persons non-persons with no rights, it has the authority to declare you a non-person with no rights, if the fancy strikes it.

So, if you can't even muster the least bit of love, and fellow feeling, and sympathy for the thousands of helpless, defenseless innocent children who continue to be slaughtered in this country every single day, can you at least muster enough self-interest to protect your own rights by defending our Constitution and the equal protection under the laws that it requires?

Always self-justifiers

4/16/2017

Tom Hoefling:

Whether they are Nazis, or slaveholders, or abortionists, or Supreme Court "justices," they just can't get around the self-evident fact that it is morally wrong to murder or enslave innocent people. Which explains why they are compelled to to dehumanize, to depersonalize, their victims, who are self-evidently created in the image and likeness of God.

A human being is intrinsically a human being, and it is wrong to enslave or murder them, no matter how many Nazis, or slaveholders, or abortionists try to pretend otherwise.

Nazi-esque

4/15/2017

Tom Hoefling:

If you want to get a sense what it was like being around committed Nazis in the 1930s and 40s, just go hang around for a little bit with some of the folks who justify abortion in our country today. Then go take a long shower...

Abortion destroys

4/9/2017

Tom Hoefling

Abortion physically destroys the individual innocent child. But the damage doesn't end there. Abortion violates the love, the revealed will, and most explicit commands of our Creator. Abortion violates the laws of nature He instituted. Abortion violates the principle of God-given, unalienable, intrinsic, individual rights. Abortion destroys the most fundamental human bond between mother and child, and the life-long bonds of love that should exist between the child and the other members of his or her family. Abortion destroys entire blood lines, extinguishing posterity. Abortion destroys justice, and exalts injustice. Abortion fills our land with violence. Abortion strikes at the very foundations of our republican form of constitutional self-governance. Abortion destroys the possibility of the preservation of our liberty.

"God who gave us life gave us liberty. Can the liberties of a nation be secure when we have removed a conviction that these liberties are the gift of God? Indeed I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just, that his justice cannot sleep forever." (Thomas Jefferson)

Already have the power to go home

4/6/2017

Tom Hoefling:

The "pro-life movement" is like Dorothy and her friends in the Wizard of Oz. They actually have sufficient brains, and heart, and courage to get the job done, but, because of the humbug of some charlatan behind a curtain, they remain ignorant of the fact, and therefore continue to behave brainlessly, and heartlessly, and cowardly. They have the power to go home, and have had that power from the beginning, but have never been taught how to exercise it.

Tom Hoefling discusses the Gorsuch nomination on Consider This

NOT the law of the land

3/26/2017

Tom Hoefling:

Everywhere we turn today we find those who think immoral, unconstitutional judicial opinions are the law. This is especially true in Washington. But nothing could be further from the truth. Such a pernicious notion is in fact a coup d'etat against our republican form of constitutional self-government.

“You seem . . . to consider the judges as the ultimate arbiters of all constitutional questions; a very dangerous doctrine indeed, and one which would place us under the despot...ism of an oligarchy...The Constitution has erected no such single tribunal, knowing that to whatever hands confided, with corruptions of time and party, its members would become despots.”

-- Thomas Jefferson, Letter to William Jarvis, Sept. 28, 1820

“Nothing in the Constitution has given them [the federal judges] a right to decide for the Executive, more than to the Executive to decide for them. . . . The opinion which gives to the judges the right to decide what laws are constitutional and what not, not only for themselves, in their own sphere of action, but for the Legislature and Executive also in their spheres, would make the Judiciary a despotic branch.”

-- Thomas Jefferson, Letter to Abigail Adams, September 11, 1804

“…The candid citizen must confess that if the policy of the government, upon vital questions, affecting the whole people, is to be irrevocably fixed by decisions of the Supreme Court, the instant they are made, in ordinary litigation between parties, in personal actions, the people will have ceased to be their own rulers, having, to that extent, practically resigned their government into the hands of that eminent tribunal.”

-- Abraham Lincoln, First Inaugural Address

Part of the problem

3/26/2017

Tom Hoefling:

The Supreme Court is supreme only over the inferior courts, not over God, or nature, or the Constitution, or the other branches of government, or over We the People. If you think otherwise, you are part of the problem.

U.S. Supreme Court Nominee Neil Gorsuch: ‘A Fetus Is Not a Person’ Under the Law

3/25/2017

From Christian News Network:

"While some have stated that Gorsuch had to answer in such a manner in order to be confirmed, 2016 America’s Party presidential candidate Thomas Hoefling wrote on social media on Thursday that those who claim the name of Christ should proclaim truth no matter the cost.

“The way I look at it, no job is worth having for which you have to hitch your wagon to genocide, and dehumanize tens of millions of innocent little boys and girls, and defy God and nature and the Constitution, and support a coup d’etat by pretending that we live in a judicial oligarchy instead of in a free constitutional republic,” he said.

No job is worth that

3/23/2017

Tom Hoefling:

The defenders of Gorsuch:

"Well, he had to answer that way, or he couldn't be confirmed."

The way I look at it, no job is worth having for which you have to hitch your wagon to genocide, and dehumanize tens of millions of innocent little boys and girls, and defy God and nature and the Constitution, and support a coup d'etat by pretending that we live in a judicial oligarchy instead of in a free constitutional republic.

"What does it profit a man to gain the world, and lose his soul?"

No clothes

3/23/2017

Tom Hoefling:

These U.S. Senators have no clothes.

I've ripped on Trump and Gorsuch aplenty. For that I don't apologize one bit. They deserve it. But it's time for a moment to point out how worthless these perfumed princes and princesses of the United States Senate really are.

Not only do Supreme Court nominees come before them and assert unconstitutional Judicial Supremacy, which is a coup d'etat against our form of constitutional government, the Senators expect them to do so. It's required for confirmation. A wink and a nod for the continued mass murder of millions, tens of millions, of little boys and girls is required for confirmation. A wink and a nod for the continued destruction of the natural family, the way God created it, is now required.

The founders of this republic wouldn't recognize what these people have created.

It's a national disgrace.

And it is going to destroy us, and our posterity, if we don't combat and defeat it.

Neil Gorsuch: "A fetus is not a person"

3/23/2017

Senate confirmation hearing, day three. Asked by Senator Dick Durbin whether the intentional taking of unborn life is wrong, Judge Neil Gorsuch replied that the Supreme Court created a law that makes the unborn child "not a person."

"The Supreme Court of the United States has held in Roe v. Wade that a fetus is not a person, for purposes of the 14th Amendment. That [decision] is the law of the land. I accept the law of the land." -- Judge Neil Gorsuch, 3-22-2017

'Our liberties we prize and our rights we will maintain.'

Tom Hoefling on Government:

"Just as 'good fences make for good neighbors,' good government is mainly about knowing where the legitimate boundaries are, and having the courage to defend those borders forcefully. This is true in terms of the defense of our territory, our security, and our national sovereignty, but it also applies to the sworn duty of all of those in government to equally protect the God-given, unalienable rights of each individual person, from their creation onward, their sacred obligation to stay well within the enumerated powers of our constitutions, and of the role legitimate government must play in balancing the competing rights and interests of the people, in order to establish justice."
