Simply 'a woman who fears the Lord'

By Angela Wittman While researching the history of the (RPCNA) Reformed Presbyterian Church of North America and abolition of slavery, I found these excerpts from on-line resources which report the RPCNA's history of the abolition of slavery officially began in the year 1800: Perhaps the most enduring change during the 19th century involved participation in social reform movements. One cause favored by the denomination was the abolition of slavery , beginning officially in 1800, when members were prohibited from slave owning and from the slave trade. Enthusiastically supported by most members, the denomination took a strong stance against the Confederacy and faithfully supported the North in the Civil War , as Reformed Presbyterians enlisted to fight against the "slaveholders' rebellion." Abolition was a major factor in the decline of the denomination's South Carolina and Tennessee congregations: most members there, finding it hard to be abolitionists in slave-own...

By Angela Wittman In Rama was there a voice heard, lamentation, and weeping, and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not. - Matthew 2.18 In four days America will observe the 38th anniversary of the deadly court decision Roe vs. Wade.  But will America weep for the children who have had their lives ended in the most barbaric and inhumane means possible? Has the Church in America witnessed enough bloodshed that she will arise and declare the flow of innocent blood must end? How long will a holy and just God allow us to go on while the blood of the preborn cries out to Him for justice? Friends, are you weeping?  Perhaps today's news headlines of a gruesome crime in West Philadelphia will help awaken the sleeping church. The Associated Press reports that Dr. Kermit Gosnell, an abortionist in Philadelphia has been charged with "eight counts of murder in the deaths of a patient and seven babies who were born alive and ...

By Angela Wittman I've been reading about the legitimacy of celebrating Christmas; and while many people have an opinion of if one should celebrate it or not, I haven't read much about the One whose birth it is supposed to acknowledge.  So, while Christians debate whether or not Christ was actually born on December 25th and if many of the Christmas symbols and traditions have pagan origins, I am going to write about placing your trust in Jesus Christ. Scripture tells us to: "Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me. " (Hebrews 13: 5-7 KJV) If we were to just meditate upon these verses not only during the Christmas season, but throughout the year, we would have much more peace of mind and good direction for our daily lives.  Placing our trust in people or thin...

By Angela Wittman "...Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say unto them, When I bring the sword upon a land, if the people of the land take a man of their coasts, and set him for their watchman: If when he seeth the sword come upon the land, he blow the trumpet, and warn the people; Then whosoever heareth the sound of the trumpet, and taketh not warning; if the sword come, and take him away, his blood shall be upon his own head. He heard the sound of the trumpet, and took not warning; his blood shall be upon him. But he that taketh warning shall deliver his soul." - Ezekiel 33:2-5 KJV Let us sound the trumpet loud and clear... Danger that should strike holy fear into the very heart of God's people is at the door. I am referring to the wickedness of those in high places who push, shove and force their agenda upon the backs of hard working taxpayers in America. They think their thick boot heels can crush the Spirit of God's people, and for good measure ...

By Angela Wittman Perhaps you have heard it said that having an abortion doesn't prevent one from becoming a mother, it just makes her the mother of a dead child.  I recently came across the story of a young woman ( Kelly Clinger ) who has a history of aborting her pre-born babies and is now suffering the heartbreak and anguish that comes from a realization that what she did was wrong and irrevocable.  She has come to understand that her "abortion" was not just a termination of a pregnancy or the destruction of a blob of tissue or the removal of a clump of cells that had potential to be a human life, but the actual destruction of a tiny, living human being - her pre-born baby.  Praise the Lord, Kelly Clinger has come to know the Lord Jesus Christ and I trust He will heal her broken heart and give her opportunity to speak on behalf of the pre-born and those who have bought into the lie that a woman has a right to kill her pre-born child.  But her grief and ...

By Angela Wittman I have often heard Christians complain that the Church today is full of confusion, bad teaching, inept pastors and worldly Christians.  Listening to our complaints, one would think we had no Leader and the glory of the Lord no longer resides with His people. But then of course, many of us are quick to point out that the fault lies with someone else - not us, the faithful few and chosen.  Well, dear friends, I think it is time for us to individually search our hearts and see if we share some of the blame for the present "woes" of Christendom. "If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land." (2 Chronicles 7:14 - KJV) The Scripture quoted above is a popular one among Evangelical Christians.  It has been read and prayed at almost every public political gathering of the Lord's people ...

"Lo, children are an heritage of the Lord: and the fruit of the womb is his reward."  Psalm 127:3, KJV Dear Friends, Here is a report from Courthouse News Service of a minor who had solicited the services of baby butchers in Los Angeles, and who apparently had hoped for a nice, tidy killing of her child.  However, the ugly truth of what prenatal child-killing is came to light in a very horrific way.  Here are excerpts from the article: "Doctors at a Family Planning clinic left a 16- to 18-week fetus inside a minor abortion patient, but told her the procedure had been successful, the patient and her guardian claim in Superior Court. The girl says she 'screamed' and had to be rushed to a hospital after the fetus 'was expelled into the toilet' the next day. "After two days of abortion procedures, the patient says Family Planning clinic workers assured her that the fetus had been successfully aborted. But the next day, she allegedly 'started crampin...

Dear Friends of Christian Liberty, I am writing you on behalf of the “Christian Liberty Party” which has been on-line since 2006. Below is a message from Keith Humphrey, the owner of the Christian Liberty Party website and domain, to give you a general, brief overview of the history of the Christian Liberty Party. The original purpose of the Christian Liberty Party website was to provide a forum for communication, with the goal of the re-unification of various State Parties which disaffiliated from the Constitution Party National Committee in 2006. The hope was that these various State Parties with explicitly Christian and uncompromising Pro-Life principles would come together and continue to be a voice in the public sphere of politics. I was holding the name in trust, with the hope that one of the original Pro-Life leaders, such as Michael Peroutka, Cal Zastrow, Rick Jore, or Leslie Riley, would provide the charismatic leadership to draw together various Pro-Life State political parti...

By Angela Wittman "Bring that baby back. If you're scared to bring her back, put her somewhere where you know she'll be safe," said Mary Foiles. She added, "They're going to catch him. I pray to God and God answers my prayers. They're going to catch him, maybe not right away but they will catch him. And I just wonder if that man knows he's going to burn in hell." (Source: Girl's Grandmother: Kidnapper Will "Burn in Hell" Hundreds Gather, Praying For Alisa Maier's Safe Return , KTVI Fox 2 News, St. Louis, Mo. ) The words spoken above by a praying grandmother of an abducted child in Louisiana, Missouri says it all. God does hear the prayers of Bible-believing Grandmas and this story of the abduction of a four-year-old little girl in a small town in Missouri is proof. According to news reports, the little girl was abducted from her front yard on Monday (July 5th, 2010) evening while playing with her six-year-old brother. She was t...

By Angela Wittman And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS. - Rev. 19:16 I recently listened to a report on the persecution of Christians in Afghanistan . And while America supports the present government with money and troops, I believe we are complicit in this destruction of human life. Which leaves me to wonder if the world (America included) sees Christians as disposable people? The lack of media attention for Christian persecution really speaks volumes as to the apathetic condition in our so called "Christian" nation. But of course, we are quite adept at turning a blind eye to the slaughter of people. After all, we take pride in our freedom to kill preborn babies while spending billions of tax dollars annually to support unconscionable government grants and programs Planned Parenthood profits from . Which leaves me to wonder just how long before the American government begins to openly persecute its Christians? After al...

By Angela Wittman Wives 'to be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.' The recent endor sement of South Carolina GOP Gubernatorial candidate Nikki Haley by Sarah Palin and her good showing in the primary has many attributing her popularity to Mrs. Palin's endorsement and continued involvement in her campaign . But at what cost to the family of Nikki Haley and those women who try to follow in her political footsteps? Politico reporter Kasie Hunt wrote this about Sarah Palin and her influence in conservative GOP races in the article Sister Sledgehammer: Sarah Palin takes aim at Dem women : "Palin is emerging not only as a standard-bearer for social conservatives but as a campaign trail Annie Oakley, a pioneering female pol who not only intends to flex her muscle to carry conservative women to office but also to shove more than a few Democratic women out of the way. “ 'No one before ...

By Angela Wittman At work with the Lord In mean and small Or great and tall Tasks, duties, offerings Of love to You. O LORD, how I long To be completely free Of ingrained sin Within heart And mind. Surrounded with love, Smoothing the edge Of hard lines Etched within, Seen without. Heart made new, Set free by You. Fashioned to be A creature anew For You alone.

By Angela Wittman “Behold, I have taught you statutes and judgments, even as the LORD my God commanded me, that ye should do so in the land whither ye go to possess it. Keep therefore and do them; for this is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the nations, which shall hear all these statutes, and say, Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people. For what nation is there so great, who hath God so nigh unto them, as the LORD our God is in all things that we call upon him for? And what nation is there so great, that hath statutes and judgments so righteous as all this law, which I set before you this day? Only take heed to thyself, and keep thy soul diligently, lest thou forget the things which thine eyes have seen, and lest they depart from thy heart all the days of thy life: but teach them thy sons, and thy sons' sons;” ( Deut. 4: 5-9, KJV ) As a Christian pro-life activist who supports “personhood” for the preborn , I have been following the Right to...

By Angela Wittman “I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.” - Galatians 1:6-9 KJV “...If someone had told me 20 years ago that some 'evangelicals' would soon be teaching that God does not know everything (Open Theism), that Scripture is not infallible (we must not deny Scripture's humanness!), and that our justification before God rests, in some measure on our good works (the so-called New Perspective on Paul), I would hardly have believed it. But we live in spiritually and theologically confused times. It would only be too easy, for the sake of a...
