On Sunday, January 3, Rep. Emanuel Cleaver (D) of Missouri, after praying for peace in our families, in the congressional chamber, and across our land, ended his prayer as follows: “We ask it in the name of the monotheistic God, Brahma, and gods known by many names by many different faiths. Amen and a-woman”. Let’s leave that last sentence for another day, and recognize to what (not whom) a hand-selected representative of our highest legislative body was praying to in the name of the U.S. Congress. Rep. Cleaver is certainly welcome to worship whatever brass statue he pleases, but not as my representative in my Congress. Psalm 135:15-17 “The idols of the nations are silver and gold, made by human hands. They have mouths but cannot speak,eyes, but cannot see. They have ears but cannot hear, nor is there breath in their mouths.” Exodus 20:3 “Thou shalt have no other gods before me.” How neatly has one side of the political aisle booted God out of our institutions ? What will be the consequences ? WHAT THE HECK !
Thanks so much to the 81 million of you that numbly decided to put this gang in power !
