SUPPORT JOSEPH KONY
"Everything Joseph Kony has done has its foundations in the Bible and these attacks against him are also an attack against all Christians. You cannot be a Christian and not support Joseph Kony." -Wash O'Hanley, Conservative Radio Pundit, Author, Social Commentator, American and Christian Hero

Joseph Kony is a Ugandan hero and a friend of all Christians everywhere. Since the 1980's, Kony, the leader of his own army called the "Lord's Resistance Army," has worked tirelessly in his efforts to rid Central Africa of Muslims and bring about a theocracy that is based on the Ten Commandments.

Joseph Kony is currently being unfairly chastised by our Godless Liberal media as being some kind of inhuman monster. They say he abducts children and forces them into a life of fighting or sex-servitude. I know this is not true for I have known Joseph Kony for many years and consider him to be a close personal friend of mine. I hope that the following will convince you that Joseph Kony is not nearly as bad as the media has painted him to be. Joseph Kony is as True a Christian as they come and all Christians around the world must stand up against this injustice against one of our brothers.

An attack again Joseph Kony is an attack against the Christian faith.

Some facts about Joseph Kony:
  • Joseph Kony has been known to be so serious about his love of God that once a year he travels to the top of a mountain in Uganda and lies in quiet prayer in the hot sun for days at a time while termites devour his skin.
  • Joseph Kony is on a crusade for God and his son, Jesus Christ, and has been known to paint crosses on his soldier's chests to prevent them from being struck by bullets (because only the lord can protect you from harm. [Psalms 121:7])
Joseph Kony and the Lord's Resistance Army are Christians who believe in Democracy and Freedom:


Quote:

God is the one helping us in the bush. That’s why we created this name, Lord’s Resistance Army. And people always ask us, are we fighting for the Ten Commandments of God. That is true – because the Ten Commandments of God is the constitution that God has given to the people of the world. -Vincent Otti (Former Deputy-Leader of the LRA)
According to Secretary for External Affairs and Mobilisation, James Obita, the purpose of the LRA is to:
  • To fight for the immediate restoration of competitive multi-party democracy in Uganda.
  • To see an end to gross violation of human rights and dignity of Ugandans.
  • To ensure the restoration of peace and security in Uganda.
  • To ensure unity, sovereignty and economic prosperity beneficial to all Ugandans
  • To bring to an end to the repressive policy of deliberate marginalization of groups of people who may not agree with the National Resistance Army's ideology.
Ensuring Democracy, ending human rights violations, restoring peace, ensuring unity and ending marginalization of minorities? Does that sound familiar? It sounds like the goals of the United States as well. Joseph Kony loves freedom, democracy and America and even went so far as to name one of his sons George Bush, after America's greatest President.


You cannot be a Christian and not support Joseph Kony

Common misconceptions about the LRA:

Q: Does the LRA commit acts of violence against their enemies?
A: Of course, they are an army. However, it is important to note that most of their supposed crimes have been greatly exaggerated.

Q: Does the LRA use child soldiers?
A: Yes, but it's important to remember that no where in the Bible is the use of child soldiers either expressly condemned or condoned. From a Christian Biblical context there is absolutely nothing wrong with the use of children soldiers in a war.

Q: Does the LRA kidnap young girls and use them as sex slaves?
A: Yes, however it is important to remember that the Holy Bible is extremely pro-slavery and has numerous pro-slavery verses and chapters. Take Deuteronomy 21: 10-14 for example:

Quote:

When thou goest forth to war against thine enemies, and the LORD thy God hath delivered them into thine hands, and thou hast taken them captive, And seest among the captives a beautiful woman, and hast a desire unto her, that thou wouldest have her to thy wife;
Then thou shalt bring her home to thine house
, and she shall shave her head, and pare her nails; And she shall put the raiment of her captivity from off her, and shall remain in thine house, and bewail her father and her mother a full month: and after that thou shalt go in unto her, and be her husband, and she shall be thy wife. And it shall be, if thou have no delight in her, then thou shalt let her go whither she will; but thou shalt not sell her at all for money, thou shalt not make merchandise of her, because thou hast humbled her.
According to the Bible there is nothing wrong with taking a female slave for the purposes of sex.


Joseph Kony: translating the Old Testament into our modern world

By Biblical standards Joseph Kony is hardly an inhuman killing machine...
Instead he is quite the contrary. Joseph Kony is painted as a monster by our Liberal media, yet if he'd been leading the Lord's Resistance Army in the Old Testament days our children would be learning about him as a hero in their Sunday School classes. By all Biblical accounts and standards he has done nothing wrong! Take, for example, the war between Moses and the Midianites in Numbers 31. After the sons of Israel defeated the armies of the Midianites, sacked their cities and slayed their kings, God DEMANDED that they kill all the male children of the town and all the women who were not virgins and to take all the virgin girls for themselves.


Joseph Kony is being unfairly persecuted by those who hate God and wish to persecute us for our beliefs. By the standards of the Holy Bible, where we derive all that is right and wrong, Joseph Kony has done absolutely nothing wrong. He has in fact worked constantly and totally in accordance with God's perfect word. Christians everywhere, from all countries, must rise up together and stand united for our persecuted brother. BEING A CHRISTIAN MEANS SUPPORTING JOSEPH KONY!


Take the pledge with me. Together we can stop this persecution and blatant intolerance towards Joseph Kony and other Christians around the world. Reply to this post by saying "I AM A CHRISTIAN AND I SUPPORT JOSEPH KONY!" So that everyone around the world can see that Christians will not stand for this attack on our religion.

Thank you, Wash, for standing up for Freedom™, Justice®, and Religious Liberty© by defending Joseph Kony and the Lord's Resistance Army against the violent, thuggish tactics of the barbaric Jesus-hating Obama administration!!!

With a name like the Lord's Resistance Army, how could anything go wrong?

I support this man for the HERO that the liberals refuse to properly call him, and hope more souls can be saved through Christ due to his sacrifices. God bless his soul.

I've written asking him does he want a few more recruits. My babies can wield a baseball bat and a broken bottle better than most 9 year olds and they'll be doing the Lord's Work.

:jesus:

Psalm 18:31-34

31For who is God save the LORD? or who is a rock save our God?

32It is God that girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way perfect.

33He maketh my feet like hinds' feet, and setteth me upon my high places.

34He teacheth my hands to war, so that a bow of steel is broken by mine arms.

I still have an issue with him carrying the curse of Ham though. I am just not used to thinking of Negros as heros in the Lord's eyes. I guess it is just an issue that I am going to have to work through with prayer.

Friends, if you don't mind, a slightly different perspective on KONY2012. Now, I hope not too many people read this post - you know how the liebral media might twist this information - but as they don't do prayer requests, that shouldn't be a problem.

**FOR TRUE CHRISTIAN™ EYES ONLY**

I took the liberty to ask our Joo lawyers to send me a copy of the list of charities and organizations that the Landover Baptist Church supports financially.

It may not surprise you that this list has a total of ... one name on it. (we prefer to get donations, not give them :ph34r:)

That name is: Invisible Children.

:fear2:

Yes, it surprised me too. So I asked the lawyer if he could explain to me why on earth LBC supports an organization that attacks a decent (albeit non-white) Christian group.

He advised me to look a bit deeper into the IC organisation, and hinted that other groups like The Caster Foundation also stand firmly behind them. I'm sure you all know Terry and Barbara Caster, our allies in Christ for Proposition 8.

Digging deeper, we find familiar names of other Christian (and I know, not all of them are True Christians™ ) groups that have close ties to Invisible Children.

Example:

2008 grants from National Christian Foundation, and subsidiaries
  • Focus on The Family: $4,268,000
  • Family Research Council: $2,387,000
  • The Fellowship Foundation (AKA "The Family" or the "International Foundation"): $515,000
  • Lou Engle's The Call: $166,000
  • Ed Silvoso's Harvest Evangelism: $817,000
  • The Discovery Institute: $702,000*
  • Invisible Children: $414,000*
There are other bona fide organizations that donate to Invisible Children (IC), but let's get to the core here.

Without going in too much detail, it seems Invisible Children is well liked by some of our friends like Mike Huckabee, Michele Bachmann, Rick Perry, David Barton and Pastor Jim Garlow. They did share a podium with IC's founder at Liberty University's Fall Convention, November 7 2011.

What does this mean?

Well, let's hear it from the co-founder of IC, Jason Russell:



"A lot of people fear Christians, they fear Liberty University, they fear Invisible Children - because they feel like we have an agenda. They see us and they go, "You want me to sign up for something, you want my money. You want, you want me to believe in your God." And it freaks them out."

In other words: IC does God's work. They work closely with Uganda's government that wants to eradicate all homers from their country.

And we have to support them.

We also have to support Joseph Kony.

It's a win-win situation. I know they're all jiggaboos, and jiggaboo conflicts tend to be a bit messy and complicated, but, WHOEVER WINS, it will be Christians!!!!!!!

I hope they use our $ 100.00 wisely!

GLORY!

PS: the fact that they advocate having more US boots on the ground isn't too shabby either. :thumbsup:

Jesus loves and protects children. God is committed to protecting all his soldiers:

Deuteronomy 31:8 “… It is the LORD who goes before you. He will be with you; he will not leave you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed.”
Isaiah 41:10 “… fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Psalms 23:4 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil,for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.

Isaiah 43:1-2 But now thus says the LORD, he who created you, O Jacob, he who formed you, O Israel: “Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you.

Therefore, using children to do the Lord's bidding just makes good military (and Biblical) sense. :thumbsup:

Well it is so sad that no one thinks of the children. Without Kony all these kids would be free atheist cadavers. They have nothing to eat there because they don't believe in God. Only Kony can bring Jesus and Live to those negroes.
