Here is a session from the new course that's up
THEOLOGY FOR THE THIRD MILLENNIUM
preemptive prophecy
When all hell breaks loose will we just run and hide? Nehemiah as a leader will teach us a lot when it comes to threats. Nehemiah of the OT and Phillip of the NT have very similar circumstance. They both were serving God and doing His work, they both had the threat of harm and death, they both could have saved themselves by 'running for the hills'...... but they spit in the face of harm and death. They could have just sat back and screamed at the darkness or wrote books about it. Right??
If all we do is scream at the darkness and talk about it in detail we become informed chickens.....the sky is falling ....the sky is falling. What good is that?
Take a look at Nehemiah chapter 4 and Acts Chapters 7&8 and you will see that they refused to bow down to their adverse situation. Instead they:
1. They didn't freak out they faced the threats fully. They knew what the threats were and
who was making them. Hoping they will go away or denial will never do!
2. They moved quickly. They were people of action, the right kind. They didn't sit and wait for the
hammer to fall. If all you do is sit, hide and run the enemy continues to hammer.
3. They Didn't stop doing the work of God! they continued aggressively to accomplish the mission.
The spoke and acted in faith and boldness.
4. Because of their brave faith filled choices they had the blessing and backing of God, then God
demonstrated His power on their behalf. God moves on and in faith not fear.
5. In both cases the 'enemy' was stopped and the kingdom of God rolled on to His glory and the
good of the people.
Remember... Psalm 37:17 ''for the power of the wicked will be broken,
but the LORD upholds the righteous.''
And....2 Chronicles 16:9 ''For the eyes of the LORD range throughout the earth to strengthen
those whose hearts are fully committed to him...''

Christians abandoning America?
'A Call to Greatness' provides major blueprint for restoring faith of Founders

While many Christian voices are calling urgently for a major national revival, author John Chalfant not only agrees, but has offered up a stunning blueprint to help get the job done.
The United States is losing its greatness, says Chalfant, because Christian clergy have abandoned "the militant, power-filled, full-dimensional" faith of America's founders.
Indeed, in "America: A Call to Greatness," Chalfant asserts Christian citizens have allowed their traditional worldview to become corrupted by what he calls "abandonment clergy."
Many Christian leaders have compromised with a secular worldview that never could have created the Declaration of Independence, Constitution or Bill of Rights, claims Chalfant, a member of the influential Council for National Policy.
Without Christianity, he said, there would be no God-given unalienable right of the individual to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
The problem America faces, he says, boils down to God's warning in Leviticus 26 that those who forget the creator and reject his commandments will be ruled by their enemies, "they that hate you."
Those words were echoed by William Penn, founder of Pennsylvania, when he famously said, "Those who will not be governed by God will be ruled by tyrants."
"We are in a war for our God-given nation and freedoms, and the workers of iniquity are winning," Chalfant says.
But he has not given up hope – far from it – insisting Christians still have at their disposal "the superior, available power and strength to take it all back."
"The hour is late, but the bell has not yet tolled for America," writes Chalfant, whose book offers a major action plan for restoration.
Christians need to realize, he says, "that they have the primary responsibility for reclaiming our nation's Christian heritage because it is Christianity upon which the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution were founded."
He points out that while non-Christians in America certainly are not obligated to adopt or convert to the Christian faith, it is "the duty of every American citizen to defend the Constitution and the Judeo-Christian pillars of law and liberty which grant us such freedoms."
"Every citizen who is a beneficiary of America's freedoms, especially the freedom to worship as he or she pleases, or not to worship at all, has a duty to defend the Judeo-Christian pillars and laws of our nation that make such freedom possible," he adds.
"In no sense is this duty a compromise with one's own religious convictions. In America this duty simply guarantees a person's right to worship as he pleases without fear of persecution."
'Author of freedom'
Chalfant says he committed the rest of his life "to the service of Jesus Christ and America's freedoms" after hearing a speech by the political hero of his youth, Richard Arens, staff director of the House Committee on Un-American Activities, who produced a research series on Soviet world expansion.
The Arens speech began, "Two thousand years ago there was One who spoke these words: 'No man can serve two masters," comparing Jesus Christ, the "author of freedom," to Karl Marx, the "destroyer of freedom." Chalfant began his new career by organizing and directing the award-winning Delaware "Freedom on the Offense" program, recognized by the late FBI director J. Edgar Hoover and others.
Over the next three decades, he helped assist and fund the many Christian pro-defense leaders with whom he developed a relationship. Among his projects was a video marketing campaign, "SALT Syndrome," by the American Security Council, which President-elect Ronald Reagan later wrote was a major factor in his election victory.
The founder of a commercial real estate company in Florida, Chalfant also was invited to join the Council for National Policy, a group of influential leaders committed to Christian principles.
The first edition of his book, published with the title "Abandonment Theology: The Clergy and the Decline of American Christianity," was hailed by many state and nationa
