Your Opinion: Ongoing war for soul of America

Dear Editor:

Due to the constraints of the 400-word maximum it has become necessary to limit the news items describing recent actions against Christian biblical morality to just three that I'm aware of occurring in America without any included quotes. Of course, I'm sure it really doesn't matter how many there are to our local anti-Christian zealots as their minds are already set. If one would include news items from around the world about Christians being killed and/or tortured the number would be staggering.

"Marine court-martial for refusing to remove Bible verse" (http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2015/05/26/marine-court-martialed-for-refusing-to-remove-bible-verse.html); "BREAKING: Obama to Force Faith-Based Grant Recipients to Hire LGBTs" (http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2015/05/28/breaking-obama-to-force-faith-based-grant-recipients-to-hire-lgbts/); "WATCH: Christian Preacher Arrested, Held For 11 Hours After Lesbian Fakes Homophobia Complaint" (http://www.breitbart.com/london/2015/05/29/watch-christian-preacher-arrested-and-held-for-11-hours-after-lesbian-fakes-homophobia-complaint/).

"When Winston Churchill and Franklin Roosevelt met in August 1941 on the battleship HMS Prince of Wales to agree the Atlantic Charter, a church service was held for which Prime Minister Churchill chose the hymns. He chose "Onward, Christian Soldiers" and afterwards made a radio broadcast explaining this choice: We sang "Onward, Christian Soldiers" indeed, and I felt that this was no vain presumption, but that we had the right to feel that we serving a cause for the sake of which a trumpet has sounded from on high. When I looked upon that densely packed congregation of fighting men of the same language, of the same faith, of the same fundamental laws, of the same ideals ... it swept across me that here was the only hope, but also the sure hope, of saving the world from measureless degradation." - Winston Churchill" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Onward,_Christian_Soldiers)

I'm convinced that these strong Christian beliefs by strong Christian men leading the fight for the right and just cause of freedom is why we were successful in protecting Europe and freeing Japan. The war for the soul of America is ongoing and it's time we fight to save it like we did overseas in WWII! I challenge churches to again start singing Onward Christian Soldiers with conviction!
