The Attack Against The Family

Christian families are under attack in America!  The Communists, Masons, Atheists, Humanists, Evolutionists, and other Godless sickos want to destroy the family.  Parents beware, the government wants your child!

Pastor Lester RoloffA classic example of the unrestrained use of government force against a child care facility occurred in 1984, when the State of Texas attempted to completely shut down three children's homes run by Pastor Lester Roloff.  He, like Pastor Silevin before him, refused to allow the state to license his homes for the children who had been voluntarily placed there by their parents.  The state of Texas went to court, but in 1981 a state district judge denied its request for an injunction against the Pastor's homes, concluding that the licensing procedure as applied to the church running them would violate the constitutions of both the United States and Texas.  The federal Court of Appeals affirmed the trial court's decision.

However, the state Supreme Court rejected the churches' contention that licensing would interfere with religious freedom.  The Chief Justice did not object to the quality of the care provided by the Roloff homes; his concern was the simple fact they would not submit to licensing.  He noted that the homes have "a good record of high quality service," and that they could "easily satisfy licensing requirements, but had chosen not to do so."

So the state wanted certain restrictions on the care provided children in Pastor Roloff's homes.  Several of those restrictions were so incredible that they show that the majority reason the state went after the child care facilities was simply that they were too successful. 

The first of these restrictions was (not a complete list):

  1. "You should not threaten a child with the displeasure of a deity."

In other words, you couldn't tell a child that he was a sinner.  Remember that these children had been placed in these homes because they had become disciplinary problems to their parents.  The parents, who had seen their children become involved in prostitution, drugs and criminal activity, had turned to the Pastor for help in turning their child around.  They turned to him because he was a Christian Pastor, and because he had demonstrated success in hundreds of similar cases before.  These parents loved their children and wanted them to stop their criminal and anti-social behavior.  They cared for them enough to voluntarily place them in a program that had proven successful.  Only a very small percentage of these children had been placed in these homes by the court system.

One of the reasons the Pastor was successful was because he turned the children to religion.  But the state told him he could not use that as a method of correcting the child.

The second restriction was:

  1. "The institution shall see that each child is provided with personal clothing suitable to the child's age and size.  It shall be comparable to the clothing of other children in the community."

The Pastor and his staff felt that much of the clothing the children were wearing was too suggestive and improper.  So they attempted to provide the children with modest clothing less stimulating and provocative.  They felt that this restriction would place the children back into the clothing that in many cases had caused them to have problems before their arrival at the Roloff homes.

The third restriction was:

  1. "Children should be encouraged to form friendships with persons outside the institution."

It would be fair to observe that such friendships were frequently what brought the children to the homes in the first place.

The fourth restriction was:

  1. Pastor Lester Roloff - Man of God"The opinions and recommendations of the children in care shall be considered in the development and evaluation of the program and activities.  The procedure for this shall be documented."

Letting the inmates run the prison sounds like an excellent idea until the prisoners suggest that the restraining bars should be removed.  Many of these children had become discipline problems mainly because they had decided that they could best run their own lives.  When this determination had failed, the parents placed them into Pastor Roloff's homes so that they would learn some discipline.  But the state wanted them to learn how to run their own lives again. 

The purpose of all this incredible pressure on the Roloff homes appeared to be the desire of the state to weaken the ability of the Roloff homes to be successful with these troubled children.  A secondary purpose appeared to be the desire to weaken the family, and encourage the state to devise methods that would remove the control of the children from the parents and to give them over to the state.

Perhaps the role model that the family destroyers want to emulate is the Soviet Union, where enormous pressures are intentionally placed upon the Russian family.

Thank God for Pastor Lester Roloff, a true American hero! 

Communist George Brock Chisholm, the first head of the World Health Organization, who decades ago in 1946 laid the blame for war and human conflict squarely at the feet of parents and Sunday schools teachers, said:

"To achieve world government, it is necessary to remove from the minds of men their individualism, loyalty to family tradition, national patriotism, and religious dogmas." -George Brock Chisholm

Chisholm was one of the social engineers of today's Godless public school system.  It was the treacherous Communist dictator Vladimir Lenin who stated:

"The best revolutionary is a youth devoid of morals."

Should it be surprising that the state of Texas didn't want Pastor Roloff to implement a modest dress code?  Why is it that the state of Texas can teach public school children that they evolved from apes, i.e., the unscientific "science" of evolution; but, refuses to allow pastors to teach rebellious youth that they are sinners?  Why is it that public schools can teach teens how to have homosexual sex; but are not allowed to teach about sin and its consequences?  It is abundantly clear that the U.S. federal government has an anti-family, anti-God, anti-country, and anti-Christian agenda, which they have forced upon the states.  This is Communism folks!  Is a government which legalizes the murdering of children [abortion] sound enough in their judgment to tell us how to educate and raise our children?  No Sir!  The U.S. government and the states have set themselves against the God of the Bible.

Pastor Roloff's methods worked, because he taught young people the truth about sin and the Savior, and taught them discipline and respect.  Young people need to be taught that they are sinners in need of repentance.  To disagree with this is to deny the Word of God.  When I was just 12 years old, I realized that I was a Hell-deserving sinner, and I turned to Jesus Christ in faith the best I knew how to be saved, and He saved me.  I thank God for that Gospel preacher who told me the truth.  Thank God for men like Pastor Lester Roloff, who genuinely cared about others, and stood uncompromisingly for what he knew was right.  Would to God we had many more such men today.

"When the Devil decides to destroy a society, he starts off with the woman."

SOURCE: Pastor Jack Hyles (from the needful sermon HOW TO DESTROY THE HUMAN RACE, Real Audio).

It's time for mothers to start teaching their daughters to dress, talk, and act like Christian ladies.

"Those who want to destroy the family will continue to urge mothers to leave the home and 'become fulfilled in the workplace.'  When the mother goes into the workplace to become 'fulfilled,' or to increase the family's income, she leaves the care of the children to others.  Those who warn against such practices will continue to be scorned by the feminists and others who have a hidden agenda: they want to destroy the family."

The state of Illinois forced me to hire a lawyer in 2002.  It cost me over $20,000 to defend my family against the Godless thugs from Child Protection Services (known as DCFS in Illinois).  What was our crime?  Not making our daughter take a potentially dangerous, even possibly fatal, non-essential drug for a petite mal seizure condition.  You can read the entire story here.  What right does the government have to bring criminal charges against parents, and to force them into financial ruin, and to make their lives difficult, and to emotionally traumatize the entire family, simply because the parents are protecting their children from the 250,000 people which DOCTORS KILL EVERY YEAR IN THE U.S.?  The state has NO God-given right to force dangerous drugs upon children!  Hell will be hot, and God will severally judge the thugs in authority who abuse their power, force parents into bankruptcy, cause suicides and nervous breakdowns, and destroy families.


Douglas Besharov, the first director of the National Center on Child Abuse and Neglect, has charged that over 60 percent of all child abuse claims are totally unfounded.  Child Protection Services is out of control...

"The definitions of 'child abuse' have basically made criminals out of every parent in America.  A federally funded study, sponsored by the National Institute of Mental Health, and released in November of 1985, defines the victims of 'violence against children' as being those who have 'slapped or spanked,' or 'pushed, grabbed, or shoved' their children.  It would be difficult to find any parent in America that wouldn't be included in those categories.

The broad definition of 'child abuse,' which makes every parent in America into a criminal, makes sense if the observer remembers that there are people in America today who want to destroy the family.  The way for them to achieve their goal is to convince the world that families abuse their children, and that 'social workers' do not.  Then, when the authorities come to take the children away from the parents of America, the overwhelming majority of the remainder of the citizens will accept the action as being required by the conditions.

And the traditional family, as was known in America for centuries, will exist no longer.

And some will be pleased."
