A Ministry in the Silent Void of Unconcern

Bible Truth For You is a ministry that enthusiastically embraces the Christian Fundamentalist perspective; that is, we believe that every word of the Bible is literally and totally true and are from God, accurately and faithfully recorded and preserved in the Received Text, which has authority over every person's life. God commands people to repent of sin, trust in the atoning work of God the Son Jesus Christ, believe and receive him as God. we are to be born anew in a new life by God the Holy Spirit and enter into a new and loving relationship with God. We should master his teaching from the Bible, pray, forsake the evil ways of this world, submit to God in all things, strive to live in purity and holiness, and live lives of love, empathy, charity, mercy, and understanding to all men, ministering God's truth so that they may be saved from destruction.

We do not embrace either right or left wing politics, capitalism or socialism, conservatism or liberalism, or any other system that has been invented by men. We advocate obedience to clear directives in the Bible from God for the conduct of every life and encourage every Christian to examine whether his beliefs are scriptural or merely very strong personal preferences. We believe that no Christian should ever elevate his preferences up to the same level as biblical doctrine or seek to teach or preach such opinions to others as God's Truth; such an act would be a sin before God and a denial of the gospel.

Pro-Muslim political correctness ‘a travesty’

Published 23 February, 2012 | By The Editor

Authorities in Phoenix recently arrested a 50-year-old Iraqi woman who reportedly padlocked her daughter to a bed for violating the family’s Islamic values. They claim the mother scorched the young woman with a hot spoon for refusing an arranged marriage. The 19-year-old girl’s father was also arrested for allegedly striking his daughter after she was seen talking to a man outside her high school.

These incidents follow a high-profile Arizona murder case involving another Iraqi immigrant convicted of running down his daughter in a Phoenix parking lot in 2009 in a so-called “honor killing.”

Julie Gunlock (Independent Women's Forum) Julie Gunlock, a senior fellow with the Independent Women’s Forum (IWF), wonders where the feminist outrage is.

“They absolutely should be all over this. They should be talking about this,” she contends. “I believe they’re too busy providing free birth control. Unfortunately, they’re missing some really important human rights stories like this one.”

She laments that feminists seem to have bought into the idea that opposing anything Muslim is politically incorrect.

“Frankly, the political correctness when it comes to Islam doesn’t just stop with feminists; this whole country is afraid to offend the Muslim community,” Gunlock offers. “Certainly if we’re going to be silent on people beating their daughters and then hiding behind their religion, that’s a travesty.”
