She sure did! She's interviewed the author of "The Family" several times. I haven't read it, but I hear it will make you want to call in the National Guard to take back Congress from the Cult of Mammon.

The C Streeters are part of the larger fundamentalist movement aimed at turning the US into a "Christian" country. As with any of these evangelical groups, they will do all kinds of unethicl things to promote the will of god. That they are congressmen and senators makes them very dangerous because their position allows them (particulalrly the senators) to impact laws and insert religious agendas.

And they call Muslims radicals. Hypocrisy of the first order.

What do you suppose God has to say about this? It sure looks like barely legally bribery to me.

So much for Thomas Jefferson's big wall between church and state......this is highly disturbing news.

Oh yeah, Fellowship Foundation. Connected to "World Vision". Two of World Vision's most notorious members? Mark Chapman and David Hinkley. Keep moving. Nothing here.

A house fill of adulterers.

What would JEsus say?

VII. Thou shalt not commit adultery.
Luke 16:18
Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery, and the man who marries a divorced woman commits adultery. (So Says Jesus)

Lev 20:10
And the man that committeth adultery with [another] man's wife, [even he] that committeth adultery with his neighbor's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.

But a man who commits adultery lacks judgment; whoever does so destroys himself. (Proverbs 6:32)

If a man is found sleeping with another man's wife, both the man who slept with her and the woman must die.(Deuteronomy 22:22)

If they and their overseas contacts are praying for the world, it's not working.

I think they're preying on the world.

'...the OCE concluded...'

LEO Wise is now at OCE!

In 2007 Leo Wise was the special prosecutor for '... one of the largest corporate fraud investigations involving a privately held company headquartered in small town America," s now at the OCE said:

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is a case of staggering fraud," 'It is one of the largest frauds the FBI has ever investigated.

Then- low and behold: December 18, 2008 The ONLY acquittal; James K Happ!...belief that federal prosecutors had not done their job, the juror said.

In 2002 FBI raided the offices of National Century Financial Enterprises in Dublin, Ohio

"This case is one of the largest corporate fraud investigations involving a privately held company headquartered in small town America," said Assistant Director Kenneth W. Kaiser of the FBI Criminal Investigative Division.

1 + ONLY acquittal; James K Happ - the CFO of Columbia Homecare Group/HCA = Rick Scott's company + his 'silent' partner Richard Rainwater- (GW Bush's ex partner of Texas Rangers)

Amazing- he now is at OCE!

No wrong doing at below market value rentals at C Street!

According to the Lord Jesus, there are "many" false prophets in our present day that will "deceive MANY people" (Mt. 24:11). Though these false prophets might claim to know and communicate God's truth, they are spreading lies (Jer. 14:14). According to the loving Lord Jesus, false prophets are really hungry, dangerous, ferocious wolves dressed in sheep's clothing (Mt. 7:15). Hence, they can be as spiritually deadly and dangerous to Christians (sheep -- Jn. 10:27) as a concealed, savage wolf is among a flock of sheep!
