Westminster Shorter Catechism (WSC) Q & A #107 (1646,1647)
Question What doth the conclusion of the Lord’s Prayer teach us?
Answer: The conclusion of the
Lord’s Prayer (which is, For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the
glory, for ever, Amen) teacheth us to take our encouragement in prayer from God
only, and in our prayers to praise him, ascribing kingdom, power, and glory to
him. And, in testimony of our desire, and assurance to be heard, we say, Amen.”

The Mark of the Beast - Is it Unfolding Before Our Eyes? by Rev. Noel Hughes
I just saw an ad for masks. The ad said, "This is not a mask. It's a sign of solidarity." I couldn't help but wonder when we will hear ads for the Mark of the Beast that say, "This is not a number - 666 - It's a sign of solidarity!
H.R. 666 6 to Track You!
"And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six."
And a closely related text is Revelation 14:9-11
"And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name."
Poem: He Always Wanted to Say Things..
The following poem was an English assignment for a High School senior. Two weeks after he wrote this beautiful poem, he committed suicide.
He always wanted to say things, but no one understood
He always wanted to explain things, but no one cared.
So he drew.
Sometimes he would draw and it wasn't anything. He wanted to carve it in stone, or write it in the sky.
He would lie out on the grass and look up at the sky, and it would be just him and the sky and the things inside of him that needed saying.
And it was after that that he drew the picture. It was a beautiful picture. And when it was dark and his eyes were closed he could still see it. And it was all of him, and he loved it.
When he started school, he brought it with him. Not to show anyone, but just to have it with him as a friend
It was funny about school. He sat in a square, gray desk. Like all the other square, gray desks. And he thought it should be red. And he room was a square, gray room, like all the other rooms. And it was tight, and close, and stiff.
He hated to hold the pencil and the chalk, with his arms stiff, and his feet flat on the floor, stiff, with the teacher watching and watching.
And then he had to write numbers, and they weren't anything. They were worse than the letters that could be something if you put them together.
And the numbers were tight, and square and he hated the whole thing.
The teacher came and spoke to him. She told him to wear a tie like all the other boys. He said he didn't like ties. She said that didn't matter.
After that he drew. And he drew all yellow. And it was how he felt about morning. And it was beautiful.
The teacher came again and smiled down at him. What's this? she asked. Why don't you draw something like your friends drawing? Isn't that beautiful? It was all questions.
After that his mother bought him a tie and he always drew airplanes and rocket ships like everyone else. And he threw the old picture away.
And when he lay out alone, looking up at the sky, it was big and blue and all of everything. And he wasn't anymore. He was square inside, and brown, and his hands were stiff, and he was like everyone else.
And the thing inside of him that needed saying didn't need saying anymore.

The following is a quote taken from Liberal Fascism: The Secret History of the American Left:
"...both the Wilson and the FDR administrations were descendants - albeit distant ones - of the first fascist movement: the French Revolution...It produced the first modern dictators, Robespierre and Napoleon, and worked on the premise that the nation had to be ruled by an enlightened avant-garde who would serve as the organic, authentic voice of the 'general will.'...Robespierre summed up the totalitarian logic of the Revolution: 'There are only two parties in France: the people and its enemies. We must exterminate those miserable villains who are eternally conspiring against the right of man...[W]e must exterminate our enemies.'"

Here is what Ann Coulter has to say about the Vietnam War:
"Vietnam is the Left's favorite war because America lost."
"Historical accounts of the Vietnam War are incomprehensible because liberals refuse to admit the failure of their national security strategy. The only important lesson from the Vietnam War is this: Democrats lose wars."
"In the great Democratic tradition of taking the nation to war without a plan to win, only the Democrats could have produced Vietnam."
"President Lyndon Johnson, who inherited the war when Kenedy was assassinated, viewed the Vietnam War as a method of proving the Democrats could be trusted with foreign policy, which they cannot."
"Nixon had been elected in part based on his promise to end the war honorably. He would have done so, too, but for Democrats in Congress,"
"A Republican President either wouldn't have started that war, or would have won it pretty fast."

And Adrian Havill reveals that Bob Woodwarde may have been a CIA agent working to take down President Richard Nixon! Here is a quote from Deep Truth: The Lives of Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein):
"Whenever you run a clandestine operation, you run two things at the same time: you prepare the team for the hit, and you keep it so small there's nobody to spread it all around. And across the hall is a big staff working on what we call special plans. They're preparing the cover story. The cover story is what they want people to believe and to talk about, and to argue about." - From a 1992 speech by Col. Fletcher Prouty, former chief of special operations, Joint Chief of Staff (as quoted in Deep Truth: The Lives of Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein)
Note: Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein were the journalists who helped bring about the resignation of President Richard Nixon. Chuck Colson served as Special Counsel to President Nixon from 1969 to 1973 and served 7 months in a federal prison for his part in the Watergate scandal.

Answer: In the fifth petition, which is, And forgive

Winning the World, One Soul at a Time, by Rev. Ralph Hall
The text for this sermon is Acts 8:26-39 (Audio)
Here is a short excerpt from this sermon:
"One old minister who heard [William Carey] talk about these subjects (bringing the gospel to the heathen in foreign lands) accused him of being a miserable enthusiast. And when he was at a meeting of ministers one day and spoke about the need to go to foreign countries to share the gospel with those who have never heard of the Lord Jesus Christ, he was told, 'Young man, sit down. When God pleases to convert the heathen, he will do it without your aid or mine.' So there wasn't much encouragement for him. But William Carey went to India and he labored there for the Lord for 40 years and he supervised and edited translations of the Bible into at least 36 languages and dialects. He published grammars and dictionaries. He labored to abolish widow burning and infanticide. He studied botany in order to promote agricultural improvement. In a sermon that he preached just before leaving England to travel to India he uttered those now famous words, 'Expect great things from God. Attempt great things for God.'"

"You know...if I had to borrow 40% of the money I need to pay my bills every month, I'd be fairly alarmed. When you come up a few bucks short at the end of the month for necessary bills, you can cut back: get rid of the cell phone, stop eating out, whatever. But when your monthly nut is routinely running to almost twice what you can pay, you're kind of out of options. It's probably time to re-examine your resistance to sleeping outdoors and pooping outdoors, and...well, doing everything else outdoors, because outdoors is where you're going to be living before long."

Constitutional scholar Mark Levin says:
"You should view these politicians with the deepest contempt you can possibly imagine. What they are doing to this country, what they are doing to our finances - there is not a criminal in any federal prison, state prison, city or county jail with respect to financial crimes of any sort who collectively could have done the kind of damage that Barack Obama and Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi and yes, willing, timid, gutless Republicans have done to this country! To your future, to your children and your grandchildren. What they are doing is with malice and with forethought." (Source)
"A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the majority discovers it can vote itself largess out of the public treasury. After that, the majority always votes for the candidate promising the most benefits with the result the democracy collapses because of the loose fiscal policy ensuing, always to be followed by a dictatorship and then a monarchy."

From The $15 Trillion Party:
"If you knew that you could live in luxury for the rest of your life but that by doing so it would absolutely destroy the future of your children, your grandchildren, and your great-grandchildren, would you do it? Well, that is exactly what we are doing as a nation. Over the past several decades we have stolen $15 trillion dollars from future generations so that we could enjoy a dramatically inflated level of prosperity. Our 15 trillion dollar party has been a lot of fun, but what we have done to our children and our grandchildren has been beyond criminal. We ran up the greatest mountain of debt in the history of the planet and we are sticking them with the bill. Sadly, both political parties have been responsible for the big-spending that has been going on (Source)

# 98 Question: What is prayer?
Answer: Prayer is an offering up of our desires unto God,
for things agreeable to his will, in the name of Christ, with confession of our
sins, and thankful acknowledgment of his mercies.
#99 Question: What rule hath God given for our direction in prayer?
Answer: The whole word of God is of use to direct us

Christ taught his disciples, commonly called the Lord's prayer.
#100 Question: What doth the preface of the Lord's prayer teach us?
Answer: The preface of the Lord's prayer, which is, Our
Father which art in heaven, teacheth us to draw near to God with all holy
reverence and confidence, as children to a father able and ready to help us;
and that we should pray with and for others.
