Trusting God Despite the Circumstances

Two Things: Anyone Hear of RENEWAMERICA.US and What In The World Is "Illuminati"? And Does It Have Anything To Do With Biblical Prophecy Of The Events That Lead Up To Christs Return?

I would like to know if any of you out there in this cyber sphere of friends and fellow believers have heard of RenewAmerica.us? The minute men and their work is some of the focus, along with Alan Keyes, and many others.

Have any of you seen their website, and what do you all think? There is an article also there discussing the UN trying to make homeschooling illegal. HSLDA is mentioned, maybe even quoated in the article.

Also, on a completely different note... I was doing some reading at organic consumers.org and tripped over some blogs that made refrences to "illuminati". I had no idea what the word meant so keyworded it on my computer, and some pretty weird things came up.
It appears, (in my very unknowledgeable understanding on this), that it is a conspiricy believing group that believe much of the worlds, especially the United States, is being led into the one world order, goverment, ect. by the control of the very very wealthy who have ties into our goverment thru a secret brotherhood of some sort. Masons were tied to this "illuminati" group. And they claim it has been around for hundreds of years.

Anyone want to shed some light on all of this?

It appears to me, that this group wants to spread fear, and the only answer is in a political revolution. (considering the extremity of our nations current problems, I cant help but think a political revolution might be in order, but am not saying so as a support to this intity).
They do make some biblical claims, but do not point to Jesus as being the saving grace, nor the events being the result of the wrath of God that MUST come to pass to fullfill prophecy for His return.

Please send all your friends over to comment. Would love to hear some food for thought from someone, or someones who have an understanding on all of this!
Please know... I am ignorant in this topic. Just learned of it, so be kind in your informing :)

I know NOTHING about this, but it's a bit freaky to me that you are the 3rd blog I've read today about this exact same thing! I think I should be researching this, too! Strange, huh?

I can only think the Political Reveloution would try and copy the book of revelation to force it to happen. We know that God is in charge of that and also that book is very complicated and can be misinterpretated several ways. There may be a uprising in this country some day with the different people who are power hungry and think they are doing it for the good of mankind. I do think God's prophecies will come forth and the U.S. will be hurting in the last days. I am not knowledgable to say anything factual about the people you mentioned, but out of interest keep us informed of it.***By the way, you made my daughters day by leaving a very nice comment on her blog and being that you are her first comment. Also she is looking forward to your dd leaving their opinion. If that is possible it would be a self esteem booster for her. Thank you very much for you kind words on her blog. It is so nice to see them smile.

There are many "______ America" organizations out there. Don't know about that one. And you're right about the Illuminati.....scare based organization. I had a friend who's husband was steeped in that. Amazing to me what some people will spend their time and energy on.

I loved perusing thru your blog. It apprears to me you are like a 'kindred spirit' to my alter ego, my private thoughts that I do not pen. I commend you for your ability to write your thoughts. Mine tend to get gummed up somehow. We share many common events. Single parenthood, remarriage......

And as far as how to keep abreast of the events unfolding in gov't re: mental health or even homeschooling issues.....don't know what to tell you. HSLDA is a good place, although it seems every organization has it's own agenda. There are sevearl different blogs or sites or alerts you can subscribe to. And actually, I've never compiled all of them.....I just searched and searched and eventually found some and some even found me! Weird. Reminds me of big brother. If you email me, I'll try to pull together some type of list. And I'll add you to my friends list.
