Moral Action Committee Reports

Chairman’s Report
to the
BMA of Texas
2005 Associational Meeting

 

Howard Wilson, Chairman

The Moral Guidelines set forth by the very word of God have become blurred for many today.

God’s Absolutes are being transgressed on a scale never before seen in our countries history.

The precious gospel: of our Lord Jesus Christ along with many Christian freedoms are much constrained due to compromise and mere convenience.

Compromise and convenience have created an American holocaust where infanticide has claimed 46 million babies sense 1973, the year these so called “rights” were granted, established by the errant Supreme Court ruling in Roe v Wade.

Most public schools feel the indoctrination of “secular ideals” their duty, while traditional instruction becomes secondary.

Television programming, commercials, movies, and many internet sites reach new heights of perverseness every year.

Long standing property ownership rights have recently been taken away.

The high courts and the very government of the United States are becoming dysfunctional as a result of a “cultural civil war” where children, families, marriage, Christianity and freedom itself is now threatened.

Without morality “no nation can govern them selves” or long endure. “Without God a people are lost.”

At no other time in our history, has America so desperately needed a return to morality on such a massive scale as we see today.

We here today are truly blessed to be a part of an Association such as the BMA, and to live in a state like Texas, where we are still legally and socially free to worship our God and creator.

Last year Marriage was overruled in Massachusetts, but in Texas just last week, 253 counties out of 254 ratified a Constitutional Amendment: protecting the sanctity of marriage, once and for all.

I know Christians are blessed by God’s favor and want those who come after us to share in the riches of His promises also.

If the favor of our lord Jesus Christ is to continue, it will be because of “what we do” and not just because of what we want.

I was fourteen when prayer in school fell victim to a struggle between the Godly and ungodly.

I have watched Christian rights continue to fade with each passing year, and I have come to a conclusion:

For Christians to win this struggle, we must all become involved, with our pastors leading the charge of a Church with our hearts and “souls afire.”

The Moral Action Committee of the BMA of Texas, embark today not only in a new year, but in a new era. 2006 and 2007 offer the Moral Action Committee never before seen opportunities to serve our Association, Churches, and state.

What we do now will long be remembered if we are diligent in God’s will, hungry for the work at hand and tireless in our efforts. It’s time to roll up our sleeves and go to work.

We ask for your partnered support again this year, in what may be the most crucial time in our committee’s history.

On behalf of the Moral Action Committee: I’d like to say thank you for your prayers and support, and may God continue to bless the BMA of Texas, our Country and this great State.
