About Joe Wilson

God bless Joe Wilson. I can totally relate to his frustration, sitting there listening to smoothly rehearsed lies, statements that are proven to be false. He only said what so many of us already believe. His only crime is pointing out that the Emperor is naked while everyone else pretends that he is clothed.

How can a nation function when its leaders lie, mislead, prevaricate, and call truth a falsehood? How can we trust our leaders when they refuse to tell the truth and call US liars for searching for and speaking the truth?

God's word is truth (John 17:17). Jesus said, "You shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free" (John 8:32).

When someone strives to speak the truth and live the truth, we can trust that person. We can have absolute trust in God because it is impossible for Him to lie (Hebrews 6:18).

Contrast that to what Jesus says about Satan: "There is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks of his own, for he is a liar and the father of it" (John 8:44).

This Scripture makes it clear why Saul Alinsky in his "Rules for Radicals" dedicates the book to the "original radical," Satan. The tactics of the current Administration come directly from this book.

America's choice is clear: believe the truth or believe a lie? I'll stand with the absolute, dependable, trustworthy truth every time.
