The prophetic battle over free speech

Free speech is the cornerstone of liberty. The Great Commission is accelerated because of freedom of speech. Christ said “Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature (Mark 16:15).” This command is premised on the very basic foundation of communication–speaking freely one to another. In Ephesians 6, the Apostle Paul prayed that he “may open his mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel.” The book of Acts has many examples of the struggle between religious leaders and the Apostles over free speech. In today’s America, there is a prophetic battle over the exercise of free speech where the forces of darkness are trying to silence the gospel in society. Your response is key.

Islam wishes to silence you. Islam is based on submission. Islam’s laws have no room for Christianity or Judaism. Submission to the false prophet Mohammad and his writings is eroding your free speech and your eventual ability to speak boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel. In America, this is an example of soft tyranny. Misguided leaders point to Islam as a religion of peace. Ignoring the facts of history and current events, they say that those advocating jihad are only extremists. They want Christians and Jews to toe up to a line of silence about the teachings of Islam. There are people who are losing their heads across the Middle East for speaking Christ or for being Jews. They can speak no more.

Another group that seeks to silence Christianity are the homosexuals. They disguise their evangelical strategy of recruiting youth into their lifestyle using words like bullying, equality, and hate speech. They anchor in our public schools as opponents of bullies, when in reality, they bully everyone who opposes their agenda. They target Christian businesses who refuse to participate in their agenda and bring them up on charges of hate speech or violating equal rights. Their attack is directly aimed at the word of God. If your worldview is one that the Bible is the infallible and inerrant Word of God, then you must adhere to the scriptures that God is constant and that homosexuality is abomination.

In both cases–homosexuality and Islam–Bible-believing Christians are expected to ignore the commands of God and not only tolerate, but embrace anti-christ beliefs. Islam and homosexuality have no respect for your beliefs. They wish to silence you in the name of free speech. The Founding Fathers understood the basic right of free speech. They wisely guaranteed this right. We as a free people, however, must stand to keep this right. To willingly be silent is submission. This submission becomes law without legislation and precept upon precept is accepted until your right has been voluntarily surrendered. Evil advances deceptively saying it is peaceful or righteous when in reality it is the opposite. We must respond as Paul by speaking boldly as we ought to speak and standing fast in the liberty by which Christ made us free.

Have a Blessed and Powerful Day!
