In Exclusive 'American View' Interview Libertarian Presidential Candidate Bob Barr Talks About God, Government

In Exclusive 'American View' Interview Libertarian Presidential Candidate Bob Barr Talks About God, Government, His Atheist Hero Ayn Rand, Abortion, Homosexuality, Terri Schiavo - Not His Favorite Subjects

MEDIA ADVISORY, June 4 /Christian Newswire/ -- Recovering Republican John Lofton, Editor of TheAmericanView.com and co-host of "The American View" radio show with the Constitution Party's 2004 Presidential candidate Michael Anthony Peroutka, has issued the following statement:

"But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God." - Matthew 4:4, our Lord, quoting Deuteronomy 8:3.

"But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." - Matthew 6:33.

"Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty." - II Corinthians 3:17.

"Bob Barr's answers during my interview of him illustrate perfectly what's wrong with modern Libertarianism - it is a Godless, bread-alone, don't- seek-God's-Kingdom-at-all philosophy. There are, I have been told, exceptions, to what I say. I have been told there are Christian Libertarians. I have, however, not met any - by which I mean I have met no Libertarians who are Christians first. If such an individual exists, he would, of course, be a Christian. A Libertarian, as I see it, is one who puts the Libertarian philosophy first and all other things next.

The tragedy is that Libertarians do not understand that the Lord Jesus Christ is the first and only true "Libertarian," the author of all real human liberty, the One Who first commanded what is rightfully God's and what is (because God says so) rightfully Caesar's.

You might also want to hear "The American View" radio show 158 which documents in detail how President George Bush is not "truly pro-life," as alleged in a cover story in "Citizen" magazine published by "Focus On The Family." You may hear that program here.

My latest "World Net Daily" column can be seen here.

Its title is: "Forget 'Common Ground' On Abortion; Defend The Faith!"

It takes to task Bob Beckel and Cal Thomas for being lukewarm compromisers on abortion, which is always murder.

House Church Building Banned By Government Officials

Hubei/China/March 13, 2008/3mnewswire.org/ -- China Aid has learned that House Church members in, Jiang’an District’s Wuhan City were banned from using their building, by Government officials on October, 31 of 2007. Officials declared that pastor Zhao Fuhai and his congregation were in violation of State regulations by holding worship services in an “unregistered religious site”. Officials confiscated 3,000 Yuan from the offertory box before banning the building from being used by the church. The congregation must now search for an alternate location to hold services in.

Fear of reprisals from Government officials is a constant threat to house church members, who simply wish to worship in freedom and security. The Government’s action towards this house church, as well as countless others, is clear proof that the CPC is not progressing in its stance on religious freedom, but rather increasing its persecution among the house church in China.

湖北武汉市（对华援助协会2008年1月24日）
武汉取缔家庭教会

湖北武汉市江岸区民族宗教事务局于2007年10月31日以行政（当场）处罚方式，取缔江岸区三七街韦家桑园45号的基督教家庭教会聚会点，同时没收教会奉献。
江岸区民族宗教事务局指责家庭教会传道人赵福海，在未经登记场所开展宗教活动，违反了国务院《宗教事务条例》和《湖北省宗教事务条例》，决定给予取缔该非法场所，没收奉献箱内叁千元。行政处罚决定书也同时指出：如不服本决定，可在接到处罚决定书之日起60日内，向市民族事务委员会或江岸区政府法制办提出行政复议或直接向人民法院起诉。期满不申请复议，不起诉也不履行行政处罚决定的，处罚机关有权申请人民法院强制执行。
当地政府这一举措，不但反映该地没有履行中国政府宗教信仰自由政策，反而证实宗教迫害事件有增无减。
