37 California Lawmakers Trying To Pass ACR-99 Which Would Make Preaching The Whole Counsel Of The Bible To LGBTQ+ People A Crime
Assembly Concurrent Resolution 99 (ACR 99) calls on pastors to stop perpetuating the idea that something is wrong with LGBT identities or sexual behavior.
California Assemblyman Evan Low and three dozen other lawmakers are pushing resolution ACR-99 in the state Assembly Judiciary Committee that’s aimed at telling religious leaders in California what they should preach from their pulpits.
The attacks on Christianity in America are coming so fast and so often now that it’s nearly impossible to keep up with all of it at the same time. But in a nutshell, the pendulum is swinging all the way from a nation being founded on Christianity and the Bible, to a nation rejecting and persecuting Christianity and the Bible.
“And to him they agreed: and when they had called the apostles, and beaten them, they commanded that they should not speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go. And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name. And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ.” Acts 5:40-42 (KJV)
It is my personal belief, based on nearly 30 years of studying the scriptures, that America is right now under the active judgment of God which as near as I can figure began under President Obama back in 2012. Over the past 7 years, we have watched the LGBTQ+P for Pedophile Movement rise to a level of power and control once thought unimaginable. In this war for the soul of America, to be neutral is to concede defeat. Which side are you on?
CA Lawmakers Trying to Force Pastors to Embrace Pro-LGBTQ+ Ideology
FROM CBN NEWS: The California Family Council reports that Assembly Concurrent Resolution 99 (ACR 99) calls on “counselors, pastors, religious workers, educators” and institutions with “great moral influence” to stop perpetuating the idea that something is wrong with LGBT identities or sexual behavior. ACR 99 also condemns attempts to change unwanted same-sex attraction or gender confusion as “unethical,” “harmful,” and leading to high rates of suicide.
Two formerly gay individuals, Pastors Ken Williams and Elizabeth Woning, argue against the resolution, calling it “discriminatory” against people like themselves, who overcame suicidal thoughts by following their faith away from their LGBT identities. They now lead a ministry called Equipped to Love that helps others like them to find health and wholeness.
“For us, walking out our faith with biblical conviction means life and hope. Our faith has saved us from suicide and given us freedom to live with clear consciences,” Woning said. “We too would like to be acknowledged and affirmed…Instead, activists attack our efforts to care for like-minded friends by promoting dangerous counseling restrictions and stifling our free speech,” she added.
Williams feels the same way. “For years, I believed that even God hated me because of my behavior,” he said. “But in my early 20s, I encountered a God who loved me despite my sins and temptations. Today, I love my life. I have been married to my beautiful wife for 13 years, and we have created four incredible children together. To someone like me, California Assemblyman Evan Low’s proposed resolution, ACR-99, feels like an unfair and direct attack.”
Despite Low’s claim that this resolution has the support of some California religious leaders, other pastors and religious leaders with a traditional view on gender and sexuality are publicly opposing ACR 99.
Besides Woning who wrote, “The Not So Subtle Discrimination of ACR-99,” and Williams who wrote, “Controlled by the State,” ordained pastoral counselor Pastor Joe Dallas published, “Pride of Ownership,” in which he argues, “While warning against the dangers of so-called Conversion Therapy, ACR 99 restricts much more than counseling, which attempts to change internal sexual responses.”
“It, in fact, dictates to pastors that they cannot teach that homosexuality is a sin, nor can they encourage homosexually-attracted people who hold a traditional Biblical view to live in accordance with their own faith,” Dallas added.
A coalition of professional counselors, doctors, attorneys, and faith-based non-profits, have also signed onto a letter pointing out the resolution’s inaccuracies and its threats to basic liberty. “People should have the freedom to pursue what brings them true happiness and joy. ACR 99 is trying to cut people off from their own pathway to happiness,” writes the coalition.
The letter goes on to provide proof that traditional faiths are not the cause for high suicide rates among those identifying as LGBT. It points out, “Professional organizations agree that same-sex attraction and gender dysphoria are not simply biologically caused, they often change.” And “contrary to misrepresentations, therapists who are open to a client’s goal of change use non-aversive, well-established mainstream practices and evidence-based treatments for trauma and addictions used by professional therapists worldwide.”
A comment in the letter emphasizes seeking assistance from traditional therapists, pastors, and faith-based ministries who can help with unwanted homosexuality and gender dysphoria.
The letter concludes by expressing “grave concern that Assemblyman Low’s resolution, like the discriminatory guilds he references, privileges sexual and gender minorities of so-called ‘progressive’ values and goals at the expense of those of traditional values and goals. It is unconstitutional to strip any person of any First Amendment freedoms, and it is inhumane to prohibit individuals from addressing their own personal pain and desire for healing and change.”
One News Now reports that Brad Dacus, president of Pacific Justice Institute, outlines ACR-99 as “an outrageous violation of the state deciding to pressure what pastors teach and preach as they minister to individuals who are struggling with same-sex attraction or gender identity issues.”
CBN News previously reported on Christian therapy saving lives: “I walked out of a Christian bookstore suicidal when I was 17 because they didn’t have any books to help me. Thank God I found a counselor who was able to partner with me in my choice to not live according to my same-sex desires,” shared Ken Williams, a pastor at Bethel Church and a former homosexual.
Another man, Edward Byrd, said, “I didn’t know I could have freedom. How will people know they can get out of this lifestyle?” he asks. “I know people in the lifestyle now who don’t know a way out.” READ MORE

Pope Francis Forms Alliance With Bill Clinton And Alex Soros In End Times Coven To Address ‘Climate Change, Migration And War’ From The Vatican
Pope Francis engaged former U.S. President Bill Clinton via zoom Monday, stressing the urgency of addressing the climate change ‘catastrophe,’ the migration ‘crisis,’ and war.
Many times you will hear me remark on how our everyday real life now closely resembles many of those cheesy but wonderful Christian movies made to warn about the end times and Bible prophecy. Look at the image at the top of this article, soak it in and understand what you’re looking at. Revelation is leaping off the pages of your King James Bible, can you see it?
“Behold ye among the heathen, and regard, and wonder marvellously: for I will work a work in your days, which ye will not believe, though it be told you.” Habakkuk 1:5 (KJB)
The Bible talks about ‘Satan’s seat’, and you can rest assured that that seat is located right here. Bill Clinton is one of the most corrupt politicians America has ever seen, and that’s saying a lot. We have a whole section devoted to the Clinton Body Count, take a look sometime and see what that’s all about. Then there’s Pope Francis, the ‘vicar of Christ’ that can never seem to preach the gospel of the grace of God, but can pontificate endlessly on climate change, migration and wars. Why is that? The kingdom of Antichrist is forming, in breathless anticipation of Judas coming up out of his own place to inhabit a human body. You want the end times? You’re living in it. Act accordingly.
Pope Francis to Bill Clinton: We Must Halt the ‘Ecological Catastrophe’ of Climate Change
FROM BREITBART NEWS: “It is time to work together to stop the ecological catastrophe before it’s too late,” the pontiff told Mr. Clinton at a meeting of the Clinton Global Initiative (CGI). “Let us stop while there is still time, please.”
The pope reiterated his intention of releasing a second document on the environment later this month, eight years after the publication of his encyclical “Laudato Sì” on the same theme.
In late August, Francis said it is time world leaders to “listen to science and institute a rapid and equitable transition to end the era of fossil fuel.”
It is “absurd to permit the continued exploration and expansion of fossil fuel infrastructures,” he declared in his message for the September 1 Feast of Creation. “Let us raise our voices to halt this injustice towards the poor and towards our children, who will bear the worst effects of climate change.”
“The unrestrained burning of fossil fuels and the destruction of forests are pushing temperatures higher and leading to massive droughts,” the pope stated, a product of “consumerist greed, fueled by selfish hearts.”
Moreover, he contended, “predatory industries are depleting and polluting our freshwater sources through extreme practices such as fracking for oil and gas extraction, unchecked mega-mining projects, and intensive animal farming.”
Moreover, “richer nations have contracted an ‘ecological debt’ that must be paid” to poorer nations, he added.
“Let us heed our call to stand with the victims of environmental and climate injustice, and to put an end to the senseless war against creation,” he said.
In the pope’s video meeting with Mr. Clinton, he also spoke of the migration “crisis,” urging his hearers to remember that migrants are not numbers, but people.
“When we think of migration, let’s think of the eyes of the children we find in refugee camps,” he said.
Earlier this summer, Pope Francis received Mr. Clinton in a private audience in the Vatican’s Santa Marta residence. Clinton was accompanied by Alex Soros, son of billionaire George Soros.
Alex Soros is the chairman of Open Societies Foundations (OSF), a WEF Young Global Leader, and a champion for the LGBT and abortion lobbies, and heir to the legacy of global disrupter George Soros. READ MORE

The Cultural Affairs Committee In New York City Have Called For The Immediate Removal Of Statues Of George Washington For Reparations Task Force
Money should be found to remove statues of America’s founding fathers like George Washington in New York City as a ‘Reparations Task Force’ committee is created
America is being hollowed out, eaten away on the inside by forces conspiring against her just as we first told you when Now The End Begins first started back in 2009. We wrote that “for generations the Bible has warned of the coming End of Days, and you are now living in that time. America, a nation raised up by the Hand of God to spread the gospel and to be a beacon of Freedom for people around the world is about to be forever silenced by those sworn to protect her – her leaders.” What we told you was coming then is now almost complete here in 2023.
“When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn.” Proverbs 29:2 (KJB)
Our Founding Fathers were far from perfect men, they all had their faults and flaws. But God used them to create a nation around the King James Bible that is nearly as unique on Earth as the nation of Israel is. No other nation in modern times has been as lauded and as celebrated as America, and rightly so. George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and all the others we remember to this day for the amazing work that they started which is still in effect 247 years later. But this is what the enemies of America hate, they hate our Declaration of Independence, our Constitution and the men who put pen to ink to birth it all.
For 14 years now, we’ve been warning you that America is being removed brick by brick, and right now we are about out of bricks.
New York City threatens statues of Washington, Columbus and Jefferson over slavery links and mulls reparations task force
FROM THE DAILY MAIL UK: The city’s Cultural Affairs Committee has demanded the eviction of George Washington and Christopher Columbus and others from public spaces because of links to slavery, along with the establishment of a reparations task force. The plans before the city council on Tuesday come after Mayor Eric Adams warned that New Yorkers face a ‘financial tsunami’ from the cost of providing for more than 10,000 new migrants a month.
But they have prompted fury as the city scratches around for resources with libraries, meals for senior citizens and childcare all now at risk. ‘This is little more than an attempt by the radical left to rewrite our nation’s history,’ said City Councilor Joann Ariola.
‘The Founding Fathers and the others who worked so hard to establish this great country should be celebrated, not eliminated from memory.’
The Committee plans to remove any public statue or work of art that ‘depicts a person who owned enslaved persons or directly benefited economically from slavery, or who participated in systemic crimes against indigenous peoples or other crimes against humanity’. Dozens of prominent statues across the city are at risk including those depicting Thomas Jefferson and former governor Peter Stuyvesant.
Anti-racism training would be introduced for contractors and city employees, and a task force would ‘consider the impact of slavery and past injustices for African Americans in New York City and reparations for such injustices’.
‘Explanatory plaques’ would be installed next to any statue not removed and on schools named after them.
Meanwhile an injunction was filed overnight against the Mayor’s plans to set up a shelter for migrants at the historic Floyd Bennett Field in Brooklyn. More than 110,000 asylum seekers have arrived in the city since the Spring of 2022 with New Yorkers paying an average of $385 a night per migrant family.
Mayor Adams has pleaded for federal help in footing the bill and lashed out at Greg Abbott as a ‘madman’ after the Texas governor bussed thousands from his state. READ MORE

FINAL SOLUTION: Joe Biden Tells Audience At The United Nations That Israel Must Be Divided And Given For The Creation Of A Palestinian State
Joe Biden addressed the United Nations this week, telling them that the land of Israel must be divided to fulfill the Two State Solution of a Palestinian state
The slow but resoundingly steady tick, tick, tick of the Bible prophecy clock continues it’s ever-reaching forward march until it reaches a resolution. WWI prepared the land for the Jews, WWII prepared the Jews for the land, the very same land that, right now, is being proffered as a sop for the creation of a Palestinian state. Two State Solution or Final Solution? The difference is not immediately apparent.
“But I have chosen Jerusalem, that my name might be there; and have chosen David to be over my people Israel.” 2 Chronicles 6:6 (KJB)
God is getting ready to do an amazing thing, Isaiah 28 calls it His ‘strange work’ and His ‘strange act’. What is that? It is the LORD giving control over His chosen people the Jews and His holy city of Jerusalem to Satan, that the time of Jacob’s trouble may be fulfilled. Luke 21 shows you this at its apex, called the ‘days of vengeance’, as the armies of Antichrist destroy Jerusalem and Israel, and they do it with God’s full blessing. But…it’s a trap, it’s a ‘hook in the jaw’ to draw all nations against Israel, and that is where God will fight for His people and for His land. In the meantime, get ready for a Palestinian state.
Joe Biden: US to work for Israeli normalization and two states
FROM THE JERUSALEM POST: The United States plans to seek both the normalization of the Jewish state with its Arab neighbors and a two-state resolution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, US President Joe Biden told the United Nations on Tuesday.
“Israel’s greater normalization and economic connection with its neighbors delivering positive and particle impacts even as we continue to work tirelessly for just and lasting peace, for Israelis and Palestinians, two states for two peoples,” he said.
Biden set out his country’s foreign policy agenda as one of the first speakers to address the high-level portion of the 78th opening session of the UN General Assembly. He focused on the importance of regional cooperation as a blue-print to solve global crises and conflict, including in the Middle East.
The US plans to seek both the normalization of the Jewish state with its Arab neighbors and a two-state resolution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, President Joe Biden said at the UN General Assembly.

He referenced specifically the new energy corridor the US announced that the US would link Europe to India through the Middle East, touching Israel, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates.
This he said, “will spur opportunities for investment across two continents” and is part of “our efforts to build a more sustainable and integrated Middle East.
Biden hinted that the partnerships the US is helping foster between Israel and its neighbors have little to do with Iran’s nuclear threat.
“None of these partnerships are about containing any country, they are about a positive vision for our shared future,” he said. READ MORE
