We the people who are not liberals... "cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them …" –Mr. Obama
Let’s correct the ignorance of Mr. Obama…
The strongest unity among men is the unity of faith based on the truth of the gospel. God is no respecter of persons meaning that no man is better than any other. Grace alone is what causes men to differ according to the measure given to each man. In Christ all the barriers between men are no more because He has removed the wall of separation between all classes of men and all races of men. This is what it means that Messiah’s kingdom is a kingdom of peace, here and now.
We the people keep our guns within reach because our religion tells us the truth about the nature of fallen men and our responsibility to preserve life given in the sixth commandment. Human depravity manifesting itself in outward acts is to be expected, and we do not presume on the Lord by not making preparations for defense.
The Declaration of Independence also tells us the truth as citizens of what to expect from a lawless state. We still have liberty in Texas to defend ourselves and our neighbor against all unlawful intruders, except for the state. If the state objects to your religious practice, then you have no rights.
