Ron DeSantis’ Florida is not hostile to black people or the LGBT community
But the heat is no joke
Recently, I had the chance to go to Florida for a baseball tournament.
For a southern boy who is used to heat and humidity, Florida is still the champ!
Given all of the histrionics of the Human Rights Campaign regarding the threat to the LGBTQ community, I would have thought all LGBTQ residents of Florida would be in hiding.
Quite the contrary.
Driving around I saw the so-called “Pride” flag on various houses.
In addition, a particular restaurant had the audacity to have a sign that was gender neutral.
The audacity of Ron DeSantis. He is creating a police state down in Florida where only straight, white men are welcome.
Pardon my sarcasm.
The same thing goes for black people in Florida.
Leave it to the NAACP to say that black people should be wary of making the trek to Florida.
You know they have people marauding the towns looking for black people to tie up at a given notice.
Again, this is the furthest thing from the truth.
The truth is that these organizations are front groups for the radical leftists who want to fundamentally transform America into a socialist utopia.
They are using race, gender and sexual orientation to accomplish that goal.
So, they will utilize any means necessary to paint the picture that conservatives and Christians are looking to take America back to a time when true oppression was the norm.
That is not the time we live in now.
Yet, there is true persecution coming for Bible believing Christians.
For example, take the case of Damon Atkins.
He is the man arrested in Reading, PA for simply attempting to quote a bible verse at a PRIDE flag raising.
His first amendment rights were violated because he dared to speak out against the secular religion of the day.
Very similar to when the three Hebrew boys dared to not bow the knee to Nebuchadnezzar’s golden image.
Unfortunately, too many Christians today are more than willing to bow and prostrate themselves in order to stay in a comfortable place.
Unbeknownst to them, that comfortable place no longer exists.
Either we are bold or not. Either we are hot or not.
Because when the heat rises, no amount of AC will be able to cool it off.
ONLY a person firm in their relationship with Christ will be able to stand in the fire and not be burned.
