Sometimes we can feel lost navigating this new world of stimulants and temptations and we may believe the Bible doesn’t have much to say on the issue, but no matter the time or place, God is faithful and He will not only guide us through our struggles with His word but He will provide a way that we may endure all things.
.
“No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.” 1 Corinthians 10:13 -14

“Inside the rehab saving young men from their internet addiction

At a cabin in the Washington state woods, the reSTART center helps residents withdraw from technology that has consumed their lives

By the time Marshall Carpenter’s father broke down the barricaded door of his son’s apartment and physically ripped him away from his electronic devices, the 25-year-old was in a bad way. He could not bear to live a life that didn’t involve hours upon hours of uninterrupted screen time.
.
“I was playing video games 14 or 15 hours a day, I had Netflix on a loop in the background, and any time there was the tiniest break in any of that, I would be playing a game on my phone or sending lonely texts to ex-girlfriends,” Carpenter says.
.
We are sitting in a small, plain apartment in a nondescript condo complex in Redmond, Washington, on the outskirts of Seattle. Marshall shares the apartment with other men in their 20s, all of whom have recently emerged from a unique internet addiction rehab program called reSTART Life.”

Let me introduce you to some friends…

The Future Homemakers of America. Yes, they were real, can you believe it!? This would be considered hate speech today.
.
.

They took home economics classes where good grooming was *gasp* part of the schedule! 😮
.
.

They ate in clean, friendly cafeterias. There was no rap music, no one yelling or standing on tables….oh look at those dresses!
.
.

Their boyfriends took shop classes and prepared themselves to be good, productive men.
.
.

They went to school dances where kids dressed up, no one was twerking, all booties remained stable, no obscene lyrics were blasted. Can you imagine such a life?
.

Western civilization must support, with vigor and enthusiasm, our local church communities under attack.

Heather Clark at Christian News Network reported…

“LONG ISLAND, N.Y. — Vandals have spray-painted a Long Island church with upside-down crosses and the words “devil” and “witch spells,” reports state.“It’s just a coincidence that Sunday morning, my message was on love,” Rob Taormina, the pastor of New Covenant Church, told reporters. “Love is patient, love is kind. So we’re going to be patient, and we’re praying for the individuals and believe in God, that God will touch them.”
.
According to reports, the vandalism occurred either Sunday night or Monday morning under the cover of darkness. The glass on the front door was smashed and words and symbols were spray painted on the exterior walls, doors and steps.”

It seems unthinkable, this is not how a civilized society should act with regards to protecting its most vulnerable. This is not how a Christian society would react, Christian men would love mercy but seek justice as the Bible instructs. It hurts my heart to pass this along but Ann Corcoran reported today…

“Idaho refugee sexual assault case: boys get probation.
Posted by Ann Corcoran on June 7, 2017
.
And, adding insult to injury, the judge in the case placed an unlawful gag order on everyone in the court room, telling them they could not discuss what happened during the five hours when the boys were portrayed as victims and the little girl was forgotten…A judge sentenced three Muslim refugee boys in the sexual assault of a 5-year-old girl in Idaho, but nobody knows the length or terms of the sentence because the judge has barred everyone in the courtroom, including the victim’s own parents, from speaking about the case.
.
The three boys — two from Iraq ages 7 and 10, and one from Sudan aged 14 — pleaded guilty in juvenile court in April to multiple counts of sex crimes in an incident that occurred last June in Twin Falls. The assault occurred at Fawnbrook Apartments, when 5-year-old Jayla, who is developmentally disabled, was lured into a laundry room, stripped of her clothing and sexually assaulted while the oldest boy filmed the entire incident.”

We must do better. We must get back to biblical instruction and guard our children from those who would harm them.
