A Note From Ed

Dear friends,

I am sitting at my desk, looking at all the radio equipment that has been installed for me to use to do my new radio program. It sure is confusing. I guess I will learn to push all the buttons and dials and talk into this giant mike at the same time.

It is going to take some practice.By next week, I will be putting together my first weekly, one hour program. I will let you know all the details as soon as it is a "GO." Pray for me. I am 30 years behind the technology. Nothing resembles the equipment my Associate Director, the late Jim Witham and I used when we did five years of daily radio throughout the Zion Curtain Country....way back then...

Our very special thanks to all of you who participated in the raising of the funds needed. You came through in a big way and are full partners with us in this new mission outreach that will touch hundreds of thousands of people.

Several major events have popped up this last week. One was a major public pronouncement By Joel Osteen, pastor of the 40,000 member Lakewood Church of Houston Texas. Pastor Osteen firmly declared to the world that Mormonism is Christian. Check out my open letter to this man.

I have been on a number national radio programs over the last few weeks and we have been buried I responses. That's a good thing. After one program, we had almost 700 emails within the hour. I spent long hours in responding. In the last month, this email newsletter list has grown by over 2,500 new names.

We prayerfully ask you to send in a gift to the ministry today. We are still about $1,000 short of our Radio project goal and need this within the next week to kick off our program with 'gusto.'

We are also running behind in our normal monthly expenses. Well. To be more accurate, the expenses are there. Just not the money to meet them all. Please, even small gifts from many make a huge difference.

Your brother in Christ,

Ed Decker

Your emails

I love your emails.

I take them seriously. I read them all.
I answer most of them personally.

Sometimes I forward them to someone with a special expertise. If you email me, expect that you will receive an answer. Sometimes that may take a while when I have hundreds of new emails in my inbox when I open my email account. Please be patient.

However, I will not open any emails that do not have a title, or if there is no content except a web address or if it contains nothing but a file or the file and one of many statements like: Open this special file!

We are continually spammed and by people who do not like our message. If they are not spamming us, they are trying to hack our website. We have so many security walls in place now that it takes me 15 minutes to log in and it's my site.

That brings up another issue. We no longer can be reached by phone. It is email or letter only now.

Mormon bloggers have taken great delight in publishing our office numbers and inviting all their friends to call in and harass us. We don't have time for those kinds of games. Enough said.

Dear Pastor Joel Osteen,
Shame on You!

This is an open letter to Joel Osteen after he announced to the world this week that the Mormon Church is Christian and Mitt Romney is a born again Christian. The LDS Church is already using it as evidence of its legitimate place in the true Christian body.

After all, one blogger said, it must be true. This is from the mouth of the Christian pastor of America's largest church. Please pass it on to your lists, use it in any way you feel necessary to stop this nonsense.

Mitt Romney: Christian or Cultist?

Among the key topics I have been discussing on radio this last month has been the general acceptance by the Christian, conservative 'right' that even if Mormonism is a 'bit off center', Mitt Romney is still a born again Christian.

They point to his use of words, like Jesus, my salvation, et al and never look past the words to see that his definitions of these words are far removed from the Christian definitions. I have put together a detailed document that deals directly with this issue. Again, download it and send it ou to your lists.

Boy Scouts Under attack Again

First it was the Mormons, who basically took over the Boy Scouts when they made it part of their Aaronic [youth] priesthood program and every LDS Ward had its own troop.

Then the homosexual invasion came along and all but destroyed it.

After that, the atheists took their turn at attacking and trying to dismantle its core belief in God and now watch out.

Here come the Muslim invaders and the radical, anti-Christian, anti-American Muslim Brotherhood.

Boy Scouts infiltrated by Muslim Brotherhood?

October 8, 2011 Patriot Update website

The Boy Scouts of America maintains scouting partnerships with Islamic groups closely tied to the Muslim Brotherhood, WND has learned.

The Boy Scouts of America welcomes major religions, including Islam. It has incorporated under its banner a group called the National Islamic Committee on Scouting, or NICS, which provides Muslim scouts an opportunity to earn badges or emblems by participating in religious activities.

The NICS scouting emblems include an "Allahu Akbar" emblem, which means "Allah is greatest" in Arabic.

And Finally..... I just had to add this....

Harold Camping misses it
........one more time..

"OOPS... Missed it again!

I was so sure the end of the world was upon us...again... Gotta be out there somewhere!"

About Me

My photo
Michigan, United States
I spent a lot of time deciding if I should write this blog or not. I'm not a great writer and I'm not going to pretend to be. I need to share what I have learned and I might not make some people happy with what I am saying. This blog is a way for me to release the thoughts and feelings that come with knowing I grew up in the wrong religion. A healing process if you will.

How To Read This Blog

Please start with the month of February 2007 and read backwards. This is the most effective way to understand, in order, why I say what I do.

Handmaidens Creed

1.I believe in God the Father, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit as one God without beginning or end.
2.I believe the Bible to be the Holy Inspired word of God with full truth and righteousness. No other writing is.
3.I believe that the work of the Lord comes first. Before any temporal thing or person.
4.I believe that grace is a gift and Christ gives that gift freely to all who believe.
5.I believe that the beauty of a woman is contained inside of her and not by what she looks like on the outside.
6.I believe that marriage is sacred and represents the Godhead on earth; two are one just as three are one.
7.I believe that love is more powerful than any other power. Remember, God is love.
8.I believe that tithing is not a part of God's new covenant, free will offerings are. And that doesn't mean just money.
9.I believe that the Aaronic, Levitical, and Melchizedek priesthoods are abolished and Christs Holy Priesthood whom Christ is the "Great High Priest" is eternal.
10.I believe that every believer is a priest in the "Priesthood of Believers".
11.I believe that when two are one, nobody is to separate the one.
12.I believe that Christ is the only way to heaven.
13.I believe that our bodies are temples, not man made buildings.
14.I believe that liars make fools out of others and the liar hates the fool.
15.I believe that all believers are in authority to preach the gospel.
16.I believe that the word 'organization' to describe Christs body is evil and has no place with God.
17.I believe the Americas are not the land of Zion and Christ will return to His origonal land-Israel in the Middle East.
18.I believe that God has set out correct ways of worshiping Him, not man.
19.I believe in holding to the truths of the Bible and not mans understanding of it.
20.I believe that the world is full of evil and Satan can easily gain control over the minds of those who do not profess Christ of the Bible to be their only Messiah.
21.I believe that Saints are those who know the real Savior, Jesus Christ, of whom the Bible speaks of; not the jesus of a cult.
