BUCYRUS — This weekend, retired Lieutenant General Jerry Boykin visited Victory in Truth Ministries as special guest for the ‘Men of Valor” Men’s Conference. The General did not mince his words as he inspired the men to be warriors on the front lines and not spectators on the sidelines.
The General discussed the importance of the Buckeye State and how conservatives believe they cannot win a Presidential election without the support of Ohio. He also mentioned that pro life groups are studying how Ohio family values advocates have been able to partner with legislators to protect the sanctity of life.
Boykin serves as the Executive Vice President of Family Research Council (FRC) and is an ordained minister. With 36 years in the army, the last four years as the Deputy Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence, Boykin also was one of the original members of the Delta Force and later became Commander Delta Force and the Army’s Green Berets.
The general spoke to over one hundred men at the conference about being on a mission for GOD. “I encourage you to run for one of the most important positions in the community: the local school board. As Christians we should seek positions of leadership to preserve Biblical values in our culture.”
The General has worked with Reverend J.C. Church who he first met at FRC while rallying pastors to engage in cultural issues. The two now work together to extend Church’s Ohio Awake 88 model to other states.
While Boykin has been invited to many speaking engagements, he also has had a number of disinvites due to complaints by left-wing atheists, Islamists, and liberal groups like the National Council of Churches. “Despite my public service to this country, these groups are trying to censor me and discredit my platform. They have a hatred for the U.S. Constitution and my First Amendment freedoms of religion and speech.”
Boykin saves his severest criticisms for the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) which because of their Marxist and sexist ideologies, he calls “the most evil organization in America.” As judgers of hate, SPLC has published a hate group list that has been used as the golden seal of disapproval by corporations like Apple, JP Morgan, government agencies, and Floyd Corkins.
Corkins, an LGBT activist, shot and wounded a FRC employee on August 15, 2012 as he was trying to gain entry to the FRC offices and kill as many as he could. Armed with a 9 mm pistol and nearly one hundred rounds, Corkins admitted in court that he selected his targets from the SPLC web site which features a “hate map.”
The purportedly “neutral” civil rights watchdog publishes a map of hate groups to which it now has expanded to include Christian groups following Biblical tenants. The political opponents included on the “hate list” are stigmatized as bigots.
“The people who subscribe to our philosophy at Family Research Council love adulterers, murders, liars, thieves and homosexuals, but do not approve of those lifestyle choices. On the flip-side, the subscribers of SPLC disagree with our family lifestyles and some of their disciples believe they have the license to kill (using hate map). The court of opinion has massively shifted in our favor.”
SPLC is currently experiencing a meltdown with the recent firing of its co-founder and resignation by its President occurring last month. Recently two dozen employees revealed that the organization has operated on the inside with racist and sexist practices while profiting for a left-wing agenda. On top of that, SPLC is under investigation for allegedly violating 501(C)(3) requirements, as it has over a hundred million dollars in offshore accounts.
According to the General, “The biggest threat to America is compromise in the church that carries no moral compass. It is shocking to see church denominations support same-sex marriage and seeing clergy dressed in their robes protesting Heartbeat Bills across the nation. The spiritual battle lines could not be any clearer.”
The Bottom Line:
The Bible says in Judges Six, “GOD said to Gideon, ‘The LORD is with you, you mighty man of valor.”
