(1 Peter 4:11)Last December 21st, it happened. Net neutrality is simply a fancy name for
the government controlling the content of the Internet! The freedom to
proclaim the Truth of the Bible and the Gospel of Jesus Christ is slowly
being taken away . . . IN THE UNITED STATES! I really take no pleasure in
saying, "I told you so." It is amazing to go back over 12+ years of Daily
Devotionals, and read the warnings I have shared with you regarding our
ability to freely proclaim the Truth of the Bible and the Gospel message. I
vividly recall countless emails telling me I was paranoid, this was the
United States and this would never happen, and others who simply thought I
belonged in a straight jacket.
Well, let me take a moment and tell you where we are in the final days of
2011. Look at television. When you go back to the 50s and 60s, even into the
70s, you had incredibly powerful programs that gave a Christian perspective
of life, had great moral messages, and a family could sit down and watch
together. I submit to you today that NONE of those programs would ever see
the light of day if they were being presented to the TV executives of today.
What you get on TV today is a steady diet of sex and violence, and
storylines and characters that are in blatant rebellion to God and His Word!
For 5 years, the Liveprayer TV program that is now in its 8th year, aired on
a CBS affiliate in Tampa, live for an hour, 5 nights a week. It was an
incredibly controversial program because it dealt with the issues of the day
and in people's lives from a Biblical perspective. Two years ago, the
self-appointed watchdog group of the Muslim community, CAIR, now the target
of many Federal investigations for their ties to terror groups, intimidated
CBS into taking the program off the air because they want to silence anyone
in the media who has the audacity to tell the truth about their 1400
year-old false relgion leading the souls of 1.5 billion followers to hell.
You can still go to the Christian stations and preach to the choir, which is
what 99% of Christians on TV do. After all, the lost on secular TV aren't
going to buy them new jet planes or help them live like rulers of small
nations. So they completely abandon the marketplace and go into the "trough"
where 99% of the viewers are already Christians.
However, if you want to take the hope and love of Christ to the masses via
secular TV, you have only one option. That is to come up with $1 million a
month and understand you will have to find those who truly want to see God's
Word spread to the lost and hurting masses to help fund it, since you will
never find enough advertisers with the courage to be associated with such a
program, nor can you beg for money each night since that is exactly what
will turn off the very people you are trying to reach. Oh, and even with the
money, you will still have a VERY HARD time finding a network who will carry
the program!
Last year, the Senate passed the addition to the existing hate-crimes
legislation to add gay, lesbian, and transgender people to that protected
list. I have told you for many years now that it won't be long before simply
preaching against the sin of homosexuality from the Bible will land you in
jail. President Obama, a strong advocate for the radical homosexual lobby,
signed that bill and you will see very quickly how the gay community will
use it as a hammer to silence people like myself who go into the marketplace
and speak out against their sinful choice. They will claim that my speech
induces people to violence towards homosexuals. This is how they will use
this new legislation to try and silence anyone who speaks out regarding this
sinful choice.
They will be very effective because you now have a generation of "faux"
churches and pastors who actually support and glorify this sin. They make a
mockery of Christ by doing so, but it also makes someone like myself who
speaks out, look like a crazed hate monger who wants to see homosexuals
beaten and killed. The reality is, we help men and women in bondage to this
sin find deliverance and freedom through Christ every month. We minister to
the broken lives of so many who have been bound by this sin. Yet, because we
take a Biblical stand on this issue we are castigated and will be a very
real target once this new legislation becomes law.
Lastly, we are now living in a day I feared would come, and that is when the
government would determine what content will be on the Internet. The
million-dollar phrase is "net neutrality." You can Google it, read both
sides of the argument, but let me sum it up for you. The ultimate goal is
for the government to determine what content can be on the Internet. Instead
of running Liveprayer from an actual office, I see a day very soon when I
will be using special connections linked to servers in foreign lands, having
to use creative technology to get the Daily Devotiaonl out each day. THAT
DAY IS NOT FAR AWAY!
I love you and care about you so much. This is why I implore you daily to
take your faith seriously. Speak out whenever you can. Don't be shy about
sharing God's Truth with others. This is also why I challenge you to stand
with me. God has given us a great platform to reach millions worldwide
daily, and we MUST keep doing that while we still can. Will this become like
China or North Korean where people like myself are put in prison for life,
simply because I preach the Gospel? Not sure, but we are definitely heading
in that direction. These are the last days, the time is short, our freedom
to proclaim the Word of God and the love of Christ is disappearing right
before our eyes.
WAKE UP!!! For the one or two people reading this today who God has richly
blessed financially and who want to make a REAL impact with your life before
your journey is over, contact me. You can give away millions to have a
building named after you, but your only true lasting legacy are those lives
you will impact for Christ for all eternity. Liveprayer has an 11 year track
record of results, we have the proven pieces in place to literally turn this
nation back to God and HIS truth in a matter of months if we had one person
who could make a sacrifce of $1 million to help me fund the secular TV
presence we need in the secular marketplace.
Preaching to the choir has proven to not change the spiritual course of this
nation. However, we have proven over the years we have the way to not only
impact hundreds of millions of lives, save souls, but turn our nation back
to God. If you are that person God is speaking to, contact me at:
bkeller@liveprayer.com and let's make our life count for God and eternity!
In His love and service,
Your friend and brother in Christ,
Bill Keller
