“[P]raying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints” (Eph 6:18)
Commentary:
As promised recently, we are bringing to your attention excerpts from articles which provide greater in-depth analyses of President Obama’s so-called Health Care plan.
This push for government-run health care is an ABOMINATION! (Prov 6:16-18)
IT MUST BE STOPPED! (Ps 119:126)
PRAY FERVENTLY AGAINST IT! (Is 37:21)
PRAY URGENTLY THAT GOD WILL HAVE MERCY, EXPOSE AND CONFOUND IT! (Ps 35:4; Jn 3:20)
The Lord wants us to be “in health”. The enemy wants us to be sick and die. Jesus came “to destroy the work of the devil.” (3 Jn 1:2; 1 Jn 3:8)
“ObamaCare”, by restricting access, treatments and even new very improved technologies, is such a work! (Dt 30:15; Jn 8:44)
We cannot allow such an important aspect of our lives to be completely controlled by a pagan, deeply pro-abortion and anti-life distant bureaucracy! (Prov 8:36; 2 Tim 3:8-9)
Some Excerpts (please read the entire articles):
“If you have any sense that you may be getting sick in the years ahead, I suggest you get sick immediately. If you will need of surgery or any medical procedure, do it now!”
“It means cutting services, nurses, technicians, medical tests and, most prominently, the use of expensive technology. The president's top medical advisers are quite frank about this.”
“Also at the heart of Mr. Obama’s plan is the restriction of services for older people, people 65 and older who, by virtue of modern medicine, may actually be 10 and 15 years younger in terms of good health than they would have been a generation ago.”
Better get sick now, not later
“Many in the mainstream media repeat the meme that this bill will finally ensure universal quality health care for all Americans, but it more likely will lower the quality of coverage for many Americans, especially those reliant on advanced medicines.”
“Perhaps the most significant change is the additional cost controls Mr. Kennedy’s bill would place on the existing insurance sector, including eliminating nearly all options for insurers to deny or price different applicants according to their health needs. Taken together, these changes would lead to radically different treatment tomorrow for patients who already have coverage.”
“One particular area of concern is the potential changes in patient access to lifesaving statins - a class of drugs that lowers cholesterol levels for those at risk of heart disease”
“Proposed changes in Mr. Kennedy’s bill would likely limit or reduce access to lifesaving statins for patients who currently have coverage, which is likely to lead to more deaths, not fewer.”
“Mr. Kennedy’s bill requires rationing to achieve its goals, the cost of statin medications, not patient needs, would drive health care decisions.”
Heart-Stopping Health Care
“I doubt whether there are many Americans who think Congress has either the right or competency to choose where they live, what clothes they wear or what cars they drive. Yet many Americans stand ready to allow Congress to decide what doctors they go to and what treatments they receive. We forget that once we have government-sponsored health care, it can be used to justify almost any restraint on liberty.”
“In most of the developed world, the government has gradually taken over many of the responsibilities of adulthood from health care, childcare, care of the elderly and other responsibilities formerly seen as individual or family.”
Live Free or Die
“FRC has been working hard to ensure that whatever bill the chamber endorses will explicitly ban taxpayer coverage for abortion.”

Pray as if your life depends on it (it may!) [Ps 60:11-12]
