     For the past 1700 years (since Costantine), Christianity has
called the Torah "a strange thing" (Hosea 8:12).

    What is the consequence?

    In Hosea 4:6, it is written:

 "MY PEOPLE are DESTROYED  for LACK OF KNOWLEDGE: because you have
REJECTED KNOWLEDGE, I will also reject thee, that you shall be no
priest to me: seeing thou has FORGOTTEN THE TORAH of your God, I will
also FORGET YOUR CHILDREN"

       If God's people reject knowledge and forget the Torah of God,
how will our society be like such that God will forget our children?

       Consider the following article below for food for thought ....

Subject: Food for thought


In Psalm 11:3 it is written:

"If the FOUNDATIONS be destroyed, what can the righteous do?"


Where Did It All Begin?

 
Let's see...I think it started when Madeline Murray O'Hare
complained that she didn't want any prayer in our schools, and we said
OK.
 

Then someone said you had better not read the Bible in school-the
Bible that says thou shalt not kill, thou shalt not steal, and love
your neighbor as yourself. And we said, OK.


Dr. Benjamin Spock said we shouldn't spank our children when they
misbehave because their little personalities would be warped and we
might damage their self-esteem. And we said, an expert should know
what he's talking about so we won't spank them anymore.

Then someone said that teachers and principals better not discipline
our children when they misbehave. And the school administrators said no
faculty member in this school better touch a student when they
misbehave because we don't want any bad publicity, and we surely
don't want to be sued.

And we accepted their reasoning.
 
Then someone said, let's let our daughters have abortions if they
want, and they won't even have to tell their parents. And we said,
that's a grand idea.

Then some wise school board member said, since boys will be boys and
they're going to "do it" anyway, let's give our sons all the condoms
they want, so they can have all the "fun" they desire, and we won't
have to tell their parents they got them at school. And we said, that's
another great idea.

And then some of our top elected officials said that it doesn't matter
what we do in private as long as we do our jobs. And agreeing with
them, we said it doesn't matter to me what anyone, including the
President, does in private as long as I have a job and the economy is
good.

And then someone said let's print magazines with pictures of nude
women and call it wholesome down-to-earth appreciation for the beauty
of the female body. And we said we have no problem with that.

And someone else took that appreciation a step further and published
pictures of nude children and then stepped further still by making
them available on the internet.

And we said they're entitled to their free speech. And the
entertainment industry said, let's make TV shows and movies that
promote profanity, violence, and illicit sex.

And let's record music that encourages homosexuality, rape, drugs,
murder, suicide, and satanic themes. And we said it's just
entertainment, it has no adverse effect, and nobody takes it
seriously anyway, so go right ahead.

Therefore, now we're asking ourselves why our children have no
conscience, why they don't know right from wrong, and why it doesn't
bother them to kill strangers, their classmates, and themselves.

Probably, if we think about it long and hard enough, we can figure
it out. I think it has a great deal to do with... "we reap what we
sow."

(This was passed on by a man named Clarence Schultz, who wrote down
some of his thoughts. He is a minister and retired Navy chaplain - lots
to think about! Pass it on if you think it has merit)
