The Unjust Prosecution of Ross Harris
By David J. Stewart | September 2018
Matthew 7:12, “Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.”
As an internet fundamental Baptist preacher, and born-again Christian, I don't usually comment on things like this, but this particular case regarding Ross Harris in Georgia disturbed me, because of the blatant injustice that I see coming from the prosecutor and judge in this trial. Ross was 36 years old at the time of his conviction, found guilty of malice murder, that is, intentionally murdering his 2-year-old son by leaving him alone in the baby-seat of his car. Internal temperatures reached as high as 125 degrees Fahrenheit, and the poor fella died from hyperthermia. That is tragic and heartbreaking. I will explain the reason for the title of my article in a bit, but first I want to say a few things.
Kindly, I couldn't help but see the hypocrisy of our entire judicial system in the United States, which permits the malice murder of literally THOUSANDS of precious infants every day in their mother's womb. Biblically, abortion doctors are cold-blooded murderers and should all be convicted of malice murder!!! Exodus 20:12-13, “Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee. Thou shalt not kill.” Is it utter hypocrisy for prosecutors to grasp for every straw possible, in a diligent attempt to convict and punish Ross Harris with a lifetime prison sentence, plus 32 years, while millions of Americans murder children each and every year within the boundaries of our warped, unjust and ungodly legal system. Americans are no less guilty than the murderous German Nazis in World War II for their atrocities against the Russians, Jews, Czechs and other countless peoples. Truly, America is long overdue for God's hand of swift judgment and righteous wrath!!! But our God is longsuffering, full of compassion and not willing that any should perish (2nd Peter 3:9).
Ross was accused of deliberately murdering his son in June of 2014. In December of 2016, a jury of 16 people found him guilty on all counts against him. Ross had been living a reckless life of adultery, texting perverse messages and nude photos of himself to other women. I am not defending Ross, God forbid. Ross is just the tip of the iceberg.
Adultery has become epidemic across America today, for many reasons:
A FAMINE OF GOD'S WORD - One reason is that our ungodly courts have removed and banned the Holy Bible from America's daily classrooms since 1963. We are seeing the horrifying consequences of that fateful decision in 1963. Children are impressionable, and they will become what is set before them! If you remove the Holy Bible from their lives (thus depriving them of faith in God and a moral compass to live by), and substitute God with the satanic lies of Evolution (a religion of bogus unproven theories with no credible scientific support), then you can only reasonably expect to produce a ticking time-bomb! And so it is all across America today!!! American society is imploding everywhere, and all the so-called professional “experts” and exploitive talk show hosts can only speculate as to why, in an insane and sick world that rejects the answers set forth in the inspired Word of God.
DEAD CHURCHES - Another reason for the flood of immorality today in America is the dead churches, who've become ecumenical, going along to get along with a new apostate generation that lacks zeal for the things of God (i.e., truth, righteousness, love, character, wisdom). If you attend the average church today, you won't hear anyone shouting “Amen!” You won't hear any real Bible preaching! You won't see the alters filled at invitation time! The power of the Holy Spirit simply isn't there anymore, because the churches have become fun centers, where people seek entertainment instead of spiritual edification from the preaching of God's inspired Word! There is a world of difference between a lukewarm pastor who gets up and teaches some vague religious principles, verses a man of God who cries aloud against sin and preaches the truth as it ought be proclaimed! America is literally dying for preaching preachers! Our pulpits are filled with wimps today, pansies who are afraid to become controversial, afraid to attract the newsmedia, afraid to go against their peers in the clergy, and afraid of unemployment. No preacher who prioritizes fear can ever truly be effective for God!
TELEVISION - The ungodly influence of television. Would to God that every television could be destroyed! Since about 1950, television has ruined our nation morally. There is no sewer as filthy, stinking and rotten with maggots, feces and vermin as Hollywood, spiritually speaking. Companies such as Netflix, Amazon and YouTube promote open nudity, indecency and unimaginable filth! Should it be surprising that our society is going to ruin? I think not. Television today is infatuated with violence, intimacy, promiscuity, filth and every manner of wickedness! And may I say, the problem is not just bad television, but also good television. Millions of people no longer attend church because of professional sports and other popular non-sinful things to watch on TV. Church simply cannot compete with home entertainment! Unless you are a mature Christian and appreciate the value of attending a godly church, then you simply won't be able to understand. America was great when she was good, and she was good when she had great churches!!! Brother Lester Roloff (1914-1982) said that, and he was so right!
SOCIAL MEDIA - One of the most common things associated with adultery today is the use of social media to meet people. We were much better off in the old days of America, when women stayed home baking, cooking and making their homes better. I was thinking today about how much damage social media is doing to our families, churches and nation. I really hare social media. I have never texted a day in my life and doubt if I'll ever start. I love being old-fashioned! I still use a musical amplifier with good old-fashioned knobs, that you turn to adjust tone, brightness and volume settings. You can have all that algorithm junk, with digital sublayers and processors. No thanks! I don't need nor want 95% of the garbage that I see being sold in stores today, things which only spoil Americans further. Facebook is one of the leading causes of divorce today, amongst other media sites. Pastor Danny Castle preached an excellent sermon about the dangers of social media, called, “THE SEDUCTION OF SOCIAL MEDIA!” The Devil has made it easier and easier for people to go into sin!
A BREAKDOWN OF FAMILY VALUES - It is so tragic that married couples today are elevating money as a higher priority in their life, instead of mothers choosing to stay at home where they truly belong, to raise their own children. One could foolishly reason that making extra money will benefit the family in the long run, but I have found this RARELY to be the case. Job place romance is epidemic! Money is a mousetrap! I have seen firsthand that women in the workplace oftentimes leads to adultery and broken marriages. I once knew a Christian man years ago in Bible college, who had a beautiful wife and five great children. The couple chose that they needed some extra money, and the wife would work part-time. The wife was tired of her overbearing husband and met a kind stranger at work, who swept her off her feet with his charm, and she ended up in his bed. She left her husband. It broke my heart then, and it still does when I am reminded of it. Oh how the love of money kills, steals and destroys! Women dress as if attending a fashion-show at work, while a homemaking mother is likely going to smell like baby vomit and sweat when she greets her husband. It is hard for a mother at home to compete with the slutty glamour girls at work. Keep that in mind fellas! The mother of your children deserve the very best from you!!! Love her because she is yours!
Again, I am not defending Ross Harris for his admitted sins. However, when I examined the evidence released to the public about the court trial, which took years and became very public nationwide, I saw a couple disturbing things which prompted this article.
Here is why I believe that Ross was unjustly prosecuted and; therefore, unjustly convicted:
(1) THE JUDGE BLOCKED INFORMATION FROM BEING PRESENTED TO THE JURY - The judge blocked the defense team from presenting information to discredit the testimony of police officers against Ross. Why would a judge do that? Clearly she was biased toward the prosecution and against the defense team. No information should ever be withheld form a jury, if a court trial is to be fair.
The jury consisted of 16 people, including a 19 year old young man. A few of the jurors were the children of police officers. One juror's father was a cop killed in the line of duty. These people didn't know Ross. All of Ross' family, friends, co-workers and even his own wife, testified that Ross immensely loved his son and could never harm him. Not one of the people who knew Ross testified against him. It doesn't seem like justice that a man's entire life should be decided by 16 people, none of whom knew Ross personally. The big inherent problem with being judged by a group of strangers is that they can only go solely by THE EVIDENCE PRESENTED TO THEM. This makes the whole process highly vulnerable to manipulation and easily controlled by the judge. By blocking out important information in Ross' favor, she damned Ross by ensuring that the jury only heard what she wanted them to hear. That is not justice!
(2) THE PROSECUTOR DISTORTED FACTS IN AN ATTEMPT TO DEMONIZE ROSS - One of the key pieces of evidence against Ross was that in the days prior to the tragic untimely death of his son, Ross had visited a website about being “child-free.” Prosecutors used that information to establish a motive for murder, claiming that Ross was tired of his life and wanted a way out. But what prosecutors didn't tell the jury was that a co-worker of Ross at Home Depot testified that it was him, that sent that website to Ross as a joke, to which Ross replied, “GROSSNESS!” How in the world could any honest, fair and reasonable person use such information against Ross? That is not a fair court trial. That is not justice! I am NOT saying that I think Ross is innocent nor guilty. I do not know! I am simply saying that, from the perspective of a complete stranger, I saw some major problems with the court case. How can a judge block information that Ross' defense attorneys felt was critical to the case? Why would she do that? How can she even get away with that legally? It just proves how CORRUPT the entire court system is in America.
(3) OUR U.S. COURT SYSTEM UNJUSTLY CHARGES PEOPLE MULTIPLE TIMES FOR THE SAME CRIME - This is so evil and wrong. I don't know if you've ever seen the movie called “Double Jeopardy” with actors Angelina Jolie and Tommy Lee Jones, but there is a well-known law (thanks to the movie) in America which says you cannot be tried for the same crime twice! However, our corrupt U.S. legal system abuses the law, to do what they feel like doing to hurt the accused, which is NOT JUSTICE!
Let's say for the sake of argument that Ross Harris is indeed guilty for intentional Malice Murder (I am not saying that he is guilty here, I am merely speculating). If proven guilty, Ross should spend a total of 30 years in prison. The punishment for Malice Murder is 30 years! No more! That is THE LAW! But look at what these evil people, the prosecutor and judge, unjustly did to crucify Ross. They not only charged him with Malice Murder, but also an additional count of Felony Murder, Count One (which carries another 30 years in prison). But that wasn't enough vengeance for them, so they also added a charge of Felony Murder, Count Two (which carries an additional 30 years in prison). We're up to 90 years in prison so far, for ONE CRIME! Then they added Cruelty To Children (which adds another 20 years to Ross' prison time). Now we're up to 110 years for Ross behind bars so far, FOR THE ONE CRIME OF MURDER!!!
I think parents and their children should sit down in advance, and discuss the terms of punishment. This is a good thing to do, so that the child can be involved in deciding his own punishment, long before he violates those rules and has to be punished. It helps a child to understand the concept of justice, and this also prevents a parent from unjustly flying-off-the-handle and merely beating a child, which is a sin. Punishments should be predetermined. I like that system.
Now let's apply this to Ross Harris situation. We have predetermined laws in America for that very reason. What the judge and prosecutor did to Ross was like a parent who agreed in a prior meeting with his child to give 10 spankings if a child slams a door. So the child is spanked 10 times! But then when done spanking the child, the parent spanks the crying child 10 more times, for slamming the door while everybody was sleeping, for aggravating the household. And then after that execution of punishment is completely, then the crying child is informed he will receive another 10 rounds of spankings, because it is a new door and it sustained minor damage. And then after 30 spankings, now the child learns he will be spanked a fourth time, for using one of his feet while slamming the door. Folks, as crazy as this sounds, this is how Ross Harris was prosecuted. All across America, people receive a standard prison sentence for a crime committed. Ross, even if truly guilty of cold-blooded murder, should have received no more than 30 years in prison, but they gave him 110! Ross Harris was convicted FOUR TIMES for the same alleged murder, which quadrupled his prison sentence time!!! That is NOT justice!
In September of 2017 an Idaho man was convicted and sentenced to 15 years in prison, for cold-blooded (so-called “involuntary”) murder in a road rage incident. He murdered a father of four children! There is little consistency in our state and federal laws! One guy walks away unscathed from committing murder, while the next guy gets 110 years in the slammer!
In 1995, I remember a 36-year-old Chicago cop named Gregory Becker, who murdered a homeless man in cold blood. Becker's case is similar to Ross Harris' case. Becker was an adulterous sleazebag. If it weren't for his being a cop, he would have been locked away and forgotten about for a very long time. I hate that inconsistency. Pastors don't receive any slack when they are accused of a crime, in lieu of all the good that many of them do to build society. I don't think cops should receive mitigated justice. Sadly, cops do often get away with crimes, and are often above the law. Gregory Becker initially was found GUILTY on all counts, but this was a mere legal chess game play, which would later be reduced. Not surprisingly, Becker was finally totally acquitted, incarcerated only for a short time. An eye-witness at the scene testified in court that he had seen Becker grab the homeless man aggressively by the neck and shoot him. How does a murderer go from being guilty, to less guilty, to being acquitted? Welcome to the U.S. court system.
Officer Becker lied about his adulterous affair to his wife. Becker clearly lied about details of the night of the shooting, claiming that his gun accidentally fired into the air, and that he had no idea someone had been shot, so he just drove off with his girlfriend, leaving Joseph Gould to die on the ground. Right! Since the victim is deceased, Becker was able to concoct whatever story he wanted! But even if Becker had been convicted to the full extent of the law, the most prison time he could have received is 15 years! So why did Ross Harris get 110 years (not including other charges)? It was a plain witch hunt against Ross! There was no fair court trial. You don't convict a man four different ways for THE SAME CRIME!!! That is as ungodly as can be!
There has been a disturbing amount of stories in the news in recent years, about innocent people who were wrongly convicted by a faulty court system. Police officers often are so hellbent on making a person guilty, that they tamper with evidence, fail to do a proper investigation, and worst of all, ignore critical evidence in favor of the accused!
Again, I am not saying one way or the other that Ross is innocent or guilty, but it is very clear to me that there was a witch hunt to convict Ross of murder. No doubt, he has moral issues and needs help, but the big question is whether or not he intentionally killed his 2-year-old son. An expert involved in the Ross Harris case, testified that it is very possible for someone to forget about their child in a hot car.
I forget things all the time, because of one statement: “OUT OF SIGHT, OUT OF MIND!” I am a responsible person, but I still forget things at times. My son-in-law kindly pointed out to me one day, to be helpful, that my renewal sticker on my plates expired 2-years ago! Oh boy! I paid about $130 penalty, which I was eager to pay. I'm glad that is all that happened. I simply forgot, because if I don't see it, it's not on my mind.
I have to have reminders sent to me each month from the credit card companies, because I would forget to make a payment. I simply have too much to remember in my life, and I cannot keep up with it all. My neck pain and multiple prescription medications also make it easy for me to forget to do things. So I am grateful for reminders! My point is that it is human nature to forget what we don't see. Ross didn't see his son in the back seat. It seems inconceivable that a father could forget about his son in a car-seat, but I can fully understand how that could happen. Ross had bought some lightbulbs at work and then went to put them in the front seat of his car, while his son was dying in the backseat. Prosecutors crucified him for that! Albeit, why would a father go back to his car, opening the door and letting the heat out, if he were trying to murder his son by heat exposure? It doesn't add up.
According to U.S. law, from my humble understanding, a person cannot be convicted unless there is no reasonable doubt as to their guilt of committing the crime. From all the evidence presented to the public by the state of Georgia, I don't see conclusive evidence that Mr. Harris intentionally murdered his own child. I just don't see it! Could he have sincerely forgot about his son? Sure, of course, yes, it happens to good people every day. And as the expert in the case testified, the human brain can actually create a FALSE MEMORY, tricking you to believe that you took care of something that you really didn't. Ross Harris was convicted solely based upon circumstantial evidence, some of which was distorted and withheld by the judge and prosecutors, which has compelled me to conclude that Ross didn't receive a fair court trial. He certainly deserves a fair hearing.
Just because a guy is a scumbag doesn't make him guilty of murder! Ross' adultery, deception and lack of character clearly tainted public and court opinion of him even before the court trial began. The bottom line is that there is no solid evidence to prove that he committed malice murder! At worst, Ross should have been convicted of involuntarily manslaughter for negligence, which carries a 5-year prison sentence. It is clear to me that America's court system has some major problems with it which needs correcting.
Granted, if I had my way there would be no prisons at all. God never intended for a man, no matter how evil, to be locked in a 6 x 8 cage for any amount of time, which ought not be done even to animals. Private investors handsomely profit from the prison system, which is another horrible evil in our nation. Anything that involves money will nearly always eventually lead to corruption. There are literally millions of Americans rotting in cages as I type, which is Satan's way of doing things. “Lucifer... that opened not the house of his prisoners?” (Isaiah 12a and 14:17b). God instituted the death penalty. That's is God's way. And for less severe crimes restitution must be made, and it shall be an eye-for-an-eye and a tooth-for-a-tooth. In Exodus 21:22, if two men are fighting and accidentally strike a pregnant woman, and her baby dies, those men are to be put to death! Why? Because it was no accident that they decided to fight in the presence of a pregnant woman! They had disregard for life. God has an extreme respect for the life that He creates. But in the case of a father forgetting about his child in a car seat, and the child dies, there must be proof that he deliberately left the child alone. I just don't see the evidence against Ross Harris. What I do see is a biased judge who deliberately withheld information from jurors, and a prosecutor who distorted the facts in a desperate attempt to convict Ross at all cost. That is injustice!
We all know how the ungodly newsmedia distort information, often to deceive the public, swaying public opinion in favor of the liberal agendas and political correctness of our time. The media has the frightening power to angelify or demonize ANYONE! Playboy magazine founder, Hugh Hefner, was a scumbag pimp if ever there was one, but the mainstream newsmedia whitewashed his crimes against God and humanity, praising him as an admired celebrity. Yet, the newsmedia relentlessly attack and demonize pastors for every sin and mistake they commit. My point is that prosecutors and defense attorneys use the same manipulation techniques to sway the opinion of the jury, as the media does the public, and it is VERY EASY to do. People can only make decisions based upon the information presented to them, and HOW IT IS PRESENTED TO THEM. Anytime that a prosecutor withholds information, distorts the facts, or skews the evidence, in an attempt to demonize the accused, it is an unjust court trial. I understand that a prosecutor's job is to go after the accused, and diligently make a case against them, but there are clear ethical lines that once crossed, nullify the entire court hearing, which I believe was the case with Ross Harris.
I found an interesting article published by the University Of Northern Iowa...
THE FAILURE OF THE JURY SYSTEM
By Charles A. Thatcher
Chance stands at the threshold of the jury system, as jurors are selected by lot, regardless of their ability to weigh close questions of fact. Ignorance follows in the footsteps of chance, since the man who has formed opinions upon the topics of the day is liable to challenge.
The system by its operation forces a man from his bank or store, his farm or mill, and brings him into a court-room to decide a question upon the evidence as introduced in writing or by witnesses. Not accustomed to the place, he wonders at all that passes around him. In what state of mind is he to intelligently listen to and decide a question that may involve the financial interests of his neighbor or the life of a fellow-man? If a man whose time is of value, he cannot be expected to give close attention to the evidence when his thoughts have wandered to his business and he chafes beneath an imprisonment which may be of great damage to him. Men's opinions are influenced by their surroundings. Such a man is not in a condition to render intelligent and impartial verdicts.
Some argue that the good of the public should influence men to sacrifice their personal advantage, so that the able business and professional men of the land, whom no one would dare to approach with a bribe, might consent to serve on juries. Granted that this ought to be the case: but what ought to be is one thing; what is, quite another. All men ought to behave them selves, and then we would have less occasion for juries; but they will not do it.
We are viewing this question just as it now is, and not in the light which fancy may picture.
It is conceded and deplored that the men who are the best qualified to sit as jurors, if drawn, make some pretext which the court deems a sufficient excuse for them. Their places are filled by the incompetent. However, disregarding the danger of corruption and assuming that juries are composed of men of average intelligence, is it to be expected that they will render just verdicts?
From the very nature of the system, no.
In its infancy trials were very brief, one day, perhaps, being sufficient for the longest, and the interests involved were limited in importance. Then men of average intelligence could grasp and retain the material points in the evidence, at least until they had reached the jury-room. To-day trials run into months, so that before a case has been half-completed nearly all that has gone before is either a perfect blank to the majority of the jury or has become so confused that it is impossible for them to unravel it.
One never sees a member of a jury make a note of any of the points in evidence. Unaccustomed as he may be to memorizing numerous facts, he is expected to store in his memory for weeks or months all that the witnesses may say? —a palpable impossibility.
Again, with an advancing civilization come new and varied interests, vast in proportions, which must be determined not by mere guesswork, but by men trained in weighing questions of moment and sifting the essential from the rubbish. Millions are to-day involved where hundreds once figured. To cope with all these conflicting questions requires more than the training acquired by a man on the farm, in the coal mine, the store, or the work shop. It needs men who by habits of life and thought have acquired the faculty of analyzing a proposition and deducing a correct conclusion and not a guess. Men of this class are not found? It is not expected that they will be found? —Among those who are drawn by
No member of a jury is expected to know anything about the law applying to the case, but still, with millions of property or perhaps a human life at stake, he is expected to apply the law to the facts, and sits for his first lecture. That the long and learned instructions of the court fall by the wayside is only too evident, demonstrating the absurdity of a system that presumes them to be of value.
Confusion of law and fact is the result. You might as well call twelve men to the bedside of a sick man, and, after they had heard the facts as to his condition from the lips of the patient, the nurse, and his family, with instructions or a lecture from the attending physician sitting as judge, let them retire to a jury-room, there determine what afflicts the patient, and so inform the physician, who, like the judge, must then give the medicine according to the verdict.
Wow, I couldn't have said it any better! The entire American jury system is a game of CHANCE! Please read that last paragraph again, about a sick patient, whose doctor, nurse and family—who are all completely familiar with the patient's dilemma—will call in a group of ignorant and incompetent strangers to decide what happens to the patient. It is insane! That is why (in my humble opinion) the judge in Ross Harris' court trial, blocked the jury from hearing information from the defense that would likely sway their opinion in Ross' favor. Talk about a corrupt court system!!! By controlling the flow of information, a judge effectively determines the outcome of a court case. Judges and prosecutors fully understand that jurors are everyday people, who are virtually totally ignorant of the legal process, and are completely naive to the psychological manipulation they WILL BE subjected to in the court room, and are; therefore, perfect pawns to be exploited to produce a desired outcome by the system.
What is the purpose for having a jury, if the judge and prosecutors have already determined to manipulate the flow of information, and thus the jury, to ensure that the accused person is found guilty? That is what they did to Ross Harris in Georgia. By not telling the full story about the websites Ross had allegedly visited in the days prior to his son's tragic death, they deceived the jury. And the judge, by intentionally blocking the defense team from presenting evidence to discredit the testimony of police investigators, guaranteed that Mr. Harris would be found guilty. I am not defending his sins and other crimes, God forbid. I am simply saying that as far as the murder conviction goes, Ross was unjustly condemned. I am not defending his awful character, obvious moral issues and wickedness. I am simply saying that he didn't get a fair court trial. In a fair trial, all information must accurately be presented to the jurors.
Once a Grand Jury (which is inefficient, expensive and unnecessary) decides that a person is guilty, the system works to make sure the accused stays guilty! That is not justice, that is a witch hunt! If you end up in an American court, don't expect justice, expect to be in the hands of incompetent people, who are akin to children playing with their father's loaded gun they've found. You will be at the mercy of a dysfunctional system.
Further Important Life-Changing Comments
I see so many problems with this whole story. No baby ought to be placed into daycare! That is Biblical. 1st Timothy 5:14-15 (King James Bible) teaches that a woman's place is in the home, married, bearing children, guiding the house, staying out of trouble; not in the workplace. I am not against women working, but a mother belongs at home raising her own children. Daycares will never care about someone's children as much as they do. And even if they could, a mother should be with her own children. Our modern-day messed up American society, due to the theft and fraud of the Federal Reserve Banksters, forces many mothers into the workplace. One evil begets another.
Furthermore, I'd rather live in a small apartment, raising my own children; than to dwell in a big house and leave a daycare to raise my children. Shame on any mother who does that! I said SHAME ON YOU if you put your child into a daycare center! No doubt there are some exceptions for single working mothers, but it had better be a very good one if you pay someone else to raise your children. There is something wrong with a mother who has no problem with other people raising her child. This whole ordeal with Ross' son tragically dying in a hot car, wouldn't have happened if they had followed the advice I am giving my web visitors. Ross had a nice job as a web developer for Home Depot, why did they need that extra income? Better to live simple. I am not condemning anyone, I am simply expressing my firm Biblical conviction that mothers belong at home with their own children!
Also, Ross shamefully sent a nude photo of himself to a 15 year old girl, and explicit dirty messages. That is a crime in any state! But what upsets me is that the girl initially lied about her age, claiming to be 18 years old. Why is it that when a 15 year old commits the crime of murder, oftentimes they are tried as adults and sent to the same maximum security prison as adult criminal; yet, when a 15 year old girl lies about her age, she is portrayed as a victim? If I had the power to do so as a judge, that 15 year old girl would spend the same amount of time in prison as Ross for that particular crime, because she lied to him, which is entrapment. Teenagers should be held responsible for their crimes! In London a century ago, children as young as 8 years old were hung for stealing a loaf of bread. Age didn't matter, if you broke the law, you paid the consequences. Our American system is so messed up!
Yes, I believe children should be punished for their wrong doing, just as parents ought to spank and discipline their children. If you don't, the Holy Bible says you hate your child. Proverbs 13:24, “He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.” I am not condoning child abuse, I am talking about utilizing that padded area that God put in the back of every human being for a reason, for spankings. Granted, hanging a child for theft is going too far. The Scriptures teach an eye-for-an-eye and a tooth-for-a-tooth. A youth who steals should be whipped by the courts and made to work to pay for what he or she stole. Youth uploading nude photos of themselves should be prosecuted and their parents! Many liberals and kooks scoff at what I am saying, which is exactly why America's prisons are overcrowded with the adult children of irresponsible American parents.
“If
destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher.”

President, 1861-1865
Please don't think that I am minimizing or defending what Ross Harris did. You're a liar if you say otherwise. Ross broke the law, sinned against God and is a horrible person. Thankfully, God forgives the worst of sinners. I read in another place that Ross regularly attended church with his wife and child. Does that surprise anyone? My father was a Skid Row preacher in Chicago, who once wisely said to me, “Anyone can become a monster without Jesus Christ!” My dad was 100% right! Albeit, I have learned in my life that people can become monsters even with the Lord Jesus Christ! All it takes is for you to get your priorities mixed up. I believe Ross was “saved” at a revival service in his church as a youth, from what I have read about his life. However, it is clear that Ross had the wrong priorities in his life, which led to his downfall. When a man places the lusts of the flesh as a higher priority in his life than his love for God, he is headed for a fall. Just because a person has Jesus Christ doesn't guarantee that they'll walk in the Holy Spirit who indwells them. Living for the Lord is a CHOICE (discipleship; Romans 12:1), just as getting saved was a CHOICE (sonship; John 1:12-13). How's your priorities?
Dr. Bob Jones Sr. (1883-1968) once wisely said, “Behind every tragedy in human character is a slow process of wicked thinking!” That is so true! Ross' moral problems didn't begin overnight, there was a slow process of evil thinking. Ironically, Ross was involved in a local church the entire time. This proves that going to church is not a magic pill, as so many pastors claim. Going to church does not prevent sin! Going to church can help us live right, but only if the pastor preaches against sin in God's love, and if we listen to God's Spirit. Most people don't listen to God. That's what Abraham meant when he told the rich man in Hell that if his five living brothers wouldn't listen to Moses and the Prophets (the Word of God), neither would they listen to a dead man who came back to life (Luke 16:19-31). Wow!
The infamous BTK (bind torture kill) murderer in Kansas City, who raped and murdered three women, escaped justice for 20 years. After 20 years of evading arrest, the culprit foolishly decided to taunt police, by typing out a letter to mock the police for their ineptness to catch him after so many years. What the BTK monster didn't know is that every personal printer sold today prints a secret invisible code on it, just for police investigators. It turns out that the BTK murderer had been a faithful deacon in a Methodist church for the past 20 years, who decided to use the church printer to type out his letter, which he mailed to police. Investigators traced the secret printer code to the credit card purchase, identifying the church, and that's how they finally nabbed their guy! You never know what someone is thinking. My point is that going to church doesn't make a person spiritual, it makes you religious! The decisions that we all make are determined by the condition of our soul, our character (the subconscious doing of right). Doing right is a CHOICE! Pastor Jack Hyles was right when he said that anyone is capable of committing any sin under the right circumstances! That's what the Holy Bible means when it says to, “Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life” (Proverbs 4:23).
Ross Harris Isn't the Only Criminal in God's Sight
I call America today “a mouse trap society”! Everywhere we turn we are being bombarded with temptation to sin. Temptation is like the cheese used for bait on a mousetrap, with a big tightly-wound spring ready to release its stored energy, snapping the instant the trigger is disturbed by an unsuspecting mouse, breaking its neck! Rat traps are even bigger, whose wound spring has enough power to break human fingers or toes!!! Sexual immorality is all around us. Television now shows full frontal nudity. It is wickedness! The majority of American women stopped dressing modestly over 50 years ago, with the ungodly Women's Liberation movement of the 1960's.
Hugh Hefner's (1926-2017) demonic Playboy philosophy is the backbone of the homosexual movement, degrading women to the level of mere commodities. In a very real sense, Mr. Hefner was a wealthy despicable pimp who bought women for money and then sold them to lustful men! Hugh Hefner has much blood on his hands, personally responsible for causing millions of broken marriages, ruined families and sexually transmitted disease! Hugh Hefner was a wicked man, who surrounded himself with wicked people, and very likely died in his wickedness without Jesus Christ. It is tragic and sad. Hugh Hefner enjoyed a pleasurable paradise on earth with plenty, God allowing him to live to a ripe old age of 91 (giving him ample time to repent), but now Hugh has entered into eternity into God's hand for judgment. Hebrews 10:31, “It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.” I believe God extended Hugh's life, giving him an extra 21 years above the average threescore and ten (70 years old), as an act of mercy to show forth His longsuffering. Mr. Hefner will have no excuses on Judgment Day (Hebrews 13:4).
Getting back to Ross Harris, the public went on a witch hunt to crucify him, because anytime a child is involved people understandably become angry! However, it is utter hypocrisy how the American public is perfectly okay with abortion, which is nothing less than “malice murder”!!! Malice murder is legally defined as willful intent to commit murder. Abortion is 100% premeditated, cold-blooded, malice murder!!! Anyone who says otherwise is a bold-faced liar and piece of trash in Heaven's sight! Historically, people have proven to be very gullible, easily provoked, easily deceived, easy controlled and as foolish as can be! Nothing proves this point so well, as the fact that tens of millions of Americans have been indoctrinated by evildoers to believe that abortion is not murder, that disarming U.S. citizens of their guns is a good thing, and that our nation's problems can be remedied by Washington DC politicians!
America has become a moral cesspool of iniquity, but hardly anyone cares anymore. I am speaking up for truth and right!
“The penalty good men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men.” —Plato
Without argument, Ross Harris is guilty of sexual immorality, but so also are the women who slept with him! Those women are as morally rotten as Ross! No one wants to talk about that. We have a big problem in America today, fornication, which the newsmedia has completely ignored. Why hasn't the newsmedia addressed the problem of fornication? I'll tell you why, because they are as guilty as Ross Harris and his whores! Sexual immorality is a major problem in the United States. In fact, it is epidemic! This is largely due to the sleazy music video industry, Hollywood, Walt Disney, Las Vegas, Netflix, Amazon, YouTube, Playboy and Penthouse (to name but a few dirty publications), the internet (the biggest source of filth today) and countless other ungodly influences. I have had to stop reading the New York Times and New York Post because of their explicit dirty advertising, some of which is shockingly raunchy!
Americans are on a downward spiral to Hell. The ungodly media (music, videos, movies, books, magazines, television) have launched a major assault against innocent and impressionable children—forcing homosexual perversion upon them (which is utterly disgusting and destructive of the soul), robbing them of the precious years of discovery as a teenager (innocency), depriving them of faith in God (instead indoctrinating them with the cruel lies of Evolution), eliminating proper courtship before marriage (teaching them instead to fornicate, even passing out condoms in public schools), criminalizing any attempt to correct transgendered tendencies in a child—AMERICA IS TRULY ON A HIGHWAY TO HELL!!!!!!
I tell you truthfully, Ross Harris' perverse behavior is not the exception! Ross is the typical product of an untoward generation who don't fear God, who don't look up to God anymore! It is not uncommon that Ross attended church regularly, while living like the Devil. That describes today's lukewarm and dead churches! It just goes to prove that playing church doesn't work!!! Our churches (including independent Baptists) today are dead! Pastors are wimps, afraid to PREACH against feminism, afraid to PREACH against abortion, afraid to PREACH against fornication, afraid to PREACH against the Federal Reserve Bankers, afraid to PREACH against the Devil's counterfeit Alexandrian-based Bible versions (aka, the corrupt 1881 translation of Brooke Westcott and Fenton Hort, upon which ALL modern Bible versions have been translated and/or influenced), afraid to PREACH against sin by name, afraid to PREACH against the false plan of salvation of Calvinism (aka, Lordship Salvation and the devil-preacher, Dr. John MacArthur), afraid to tell it like it is!!!
We need a whole new breed of PREACHERS today!!! We need a generation of Pastor Steven Andersons (but who preferably testify of a Pretribulation Rapture). I love Brother Anderson, his family and ministry! I know Pastor Jack Hyles would be very proud of Pastor Anderson. We need a generation of Billy Sundays! We need a generation of John the Baptists! We need a generation of PREACHING PREACHERS!!! I am sick and tired of shameful pastors in the pulpit who are merely fulfilling an occupation (a job). They are spineless wimps, lacking gonads, pansies, the Bob Jones University yuppie type, who wear lace on their underwear, avoiding controversies, running from uncomfortable situations, pursuing career advancement instead of the power of the Holy Spirit, selectively caring only about people whom they want to help (when they ought to have a genuine love and concern for everyone), cowards, ecumenical, impotent limp sticks, spiritual weaklings, having a form of godliness but denying the Gospel of free grace (who instead teach the heresy of “turning from sins” to be saved). I love and thank God for TRUTH PREACHERS!!!
Something that no one has addressed concerning Ross Harris' shameful adulterous affairs are the sinful women who committed sexual immorality with him. Some of the women didn't know that Ross was married, others did. Regardless, consensual sex outside of marriage is called “fornication” in the Holy Bible, and it brings the judgment of God. Colossians 3:5-6, “Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry: For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience.” Hebrews 13:4, “Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.” Please do not be deceived my friend, God WILL judge sinners! All mankind have sinned. We must all give account in eternity for our life on earth (Ecclesiastes 12:13-14; Matthew 12:36; 1st Thessalonians 4:6; Romans 14:10-12; James 4:12; Matthew 7:1-5; Hebrews 9:27).
President John Adams rightly said:
“We have not government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” —U.S. President John Adams
One of the biggest problems facing America's courts today is unprecedented cases. With the invention of the internet, and social media, a whole new existence of cyber crimes has begun. One ungodly mother of a teen girl, became upset at an acquaintance of her own teen daughter, a neighbour across the street. That rotten mother pretended to be a boy online that liked the girl across the street. The girl fell in love with the boy, sharing the details with her mother how happy she was that this new boy really liked her, and made her feel special. Then to be cruel, the mother (pretending to be a boy) told the girl that he hated her, thought she was ugly and didn't want to ever talk to her again. The devastated girl commit suicide! That evil mother literally laughed as she exited the courthouse in Missouri, because the presiding judge couldn't prosecute her, because there were no laws yet in existence to do so. God will avenge that victimized family!
Two sore evils that I see today in the U.S. are judges who either: 1) Go overboard and cross ethical lines to hurt the accused (such as in the case of Ross Harris); or, 2) They don't have any power (such as in the case of this scum predator mother in Missouri who effectively murdered a girl) to punish the guilty. There is no justice! I am a sinner just like anybody else. I am not condemning anyone in this article, God forbid. I am simply expressing my humble Christian opinion. If you want to find a sinner, you found him!!! I am sick of this insane and sin-cursed world! As Brother Lester Roloff said: We're insane because of sin! (Even so, come, Lord Jesus!!!!!!!)
The case of Ross Harris highlights the increasing social problem of fornication in America. Millions of Americans are living in open sin, committing sexual immorality, many while attending church regularly. The way to live right is to abide in the Word of God, with a humble heart of obedience! Psalms 119:9, “Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to thy word.” I want to be a DOER, not just a HEARER of God's Word! James 1:22-23, “But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass.” Some of the worst people I know faithfully attend church on Guam. They are snobs, ingrates, proud, haughty, unwilling to apologize, complacent using corruptible seed (fake Bible versions), tolerant of false prophets, tolerant of Calvinism (a false Gospel), bidding Godspeed to evildoers, ecumenical, shallow, lukewarm, gossipers, self-righteous, selfish, unkind and devoid of God's unconditional love. I'm talking about pastors, Bible college graduates and longtime church members. Ross Harris would fit right in with their phony type!!!
The more that Americans indulge in sinful behavior, the less horrible sin appears (Romans 7:13), and it becomes a domino affect, like a runaway Detroit Diesel engine! Detroit engines are often used in firetrucks, larger trucks and buses. A Detroit Diesel engine, because of its unique mechanical design, will run away in speed and blow itself up if the speed governor that regulates fuel is not adjusted properly. Likewise, once a person's life gets out of whack, and sin takes its toll, your life will run out of control until it blows up! Sin always fascinates and then it assassinates! Sin always thrills and then it kills! Ecclesiastes 8:12, “Though a sinner do evil an hundred times, and his days be prolonged, yet surely I know that it shall be well with them that fear God, which fear before him.”
Beware of Your Online Activities
Please be careful about social media and where, when, what and who you interact with online. We are living in crazy times! Going back to what I was saying about living in “a mousetrap society,” I'm not kidding! As I went though the available online evidence, that police investigators had gathered against Ross Harris, I pondered how little the average person today fully realizes just how much they are being monitored, surveilled, tracked, recorded, archived and spied on! Ross' car was on video in the parking lot. Prosecutors used the video against him in court. When Ross bought some lightbulbs and placed them into his car midday, they used that against him, claiming that he knew his son was dying in the hot car. Why would Ross open the car door, letting the heat out, if he was trying to murder his son? It doesn't make sense, does it? One of the biggest factors in prosecuting people nowadays is their internet activity.
Also, detectives were able to retrieve Ross' online searches, despite the fact that Ross deleted his surfing history. The police even knew that he deleted his history, and the time he did it! When you search Google, for example, all your searches are permanently recorded in Google's database. Deleting your browsing history doesn't delete the searches on the server. Every word that you text online, regardless whether it be a cellphone, laptop computer, I-pad or other gadget that connects to the internet, it is all archived. Someone who knows what they are doing can determine your entire life simply by monitoring your online activity. They know what taste in movies you have from Netflix and Amazon. They know what you've shopped for. They know what music you've downloaded. They have every website that you've visited, every image you've downloaded, every word you've typed on your keyboard. Microsoft Windows 10 automatically uploads and archives every word you type! Microsoft does this without your permission, which you agreed to when you consented to install the software (or bought your laptop with preinstalled software). I could write a book on how our privacy is being stolen!
The very nature of the New World Order is the elimination of personal privacy, so that the Devil's crowd can control every aspect of your life. In South Korea, the government monitors citizen's garbage contents. That is already happening in the United States. You can discover a lot about a family by the contents of their garbage. The government has been caught repeatedly spying and recording personal cellphone conversations! I am simply saying to be careful where you go online, what you type, what you click on, what you download, and what you tell the world, because THE WORLD IS WATCHING!
This stuff about being careful about your online activities is a VERY SERIOUS matter! Ask Morton Berger, an award-winning 52 year old high school teacher in Arizona, married, with no criminal record, who was convicted in 2003 of downloading 20 images of perverse indecent smut. Morton was sentenced to 200 YEARS in prison! The decision was appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court, as a violation of the 8th Amendment against cruel and unusual punishment. The U.S. Supreme Court told Morton to rot in Hell! I have never heard of such injustice in all my life! You don't take a man's life away, and lock him in a 6 x 8 cage for the rest of his life, totally destroying his marriage, for downloading some dirty pictures! We are living in frightening times, where you can get life in prison for all kinds of things! We are truly living in a police state prison culture in the United States!
The United States incarcerates more citizens than Russia and China combined! China has over a billion people! Mercy does not seem to exist in U.S. courts! Thankfully, we have a superbly merciful God, full of compassion, who is willing to pardon anyone who receives the Gospel. Micah 7:18, “Who is a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? he retaineth not his anger for ever, because he delighteth in mercy.” Tragically, some of the biggest known criminals, like Bill and Hillary Clinton, and George W. Bush and Dick Cheney, are above the law and will escape justice until they are placed into God's hands (Ecclesiastes 5:8; 12:13-14; Romans 12:19-21). Even so, come, Lord Jesus!!!
Did you know that businesses regularly spy on your browsing habits? I'm talking about Amazon.com and other popular websites. They have no loyalty to their customers, they'll exploit their own mothers for a buck! They place cookies on your computer to track you. If you block those cookies, it blocks other cookies that you want, and causes all kinds of browsing problems, so you have to put up with it. It is unethical. We are living in VERY UNETHICAL TIMES today. Companies are ruthless, uncaring and downright rotten! They sell your e-mails. They buttonhole you with advertisements.
Ross Harris learned the hard way in court that his entire life was being tracked, monitored and recorded. Even the GPS censor in his car, credit card transactions, phone call to a travel agent, a receipt from eating at a Chick-Fill-A restaurant, intimate texts to girlfriends, and his laptop activity at work, were all used against him in court. It is virtually IMPOSSIBLE to get away with a crime nowadays, so just don't do it! I pray every day, and throughout the day, for the blessed Lord Jesus Christ to help me to THINK right, DO right, and LIVE right. Thankfully because Christ died for my sins on the cross of Calvary, I can BE right by His precious blood that He shed (1st Peter 1:18-19). As Pastor Curtis Hutson (1934-1995) used to wisely say, “DO GOOD AND IT WILL BE GOOD!” Amen and amen!
America is Great No More, Because We Are Not Good Anymore!
The daily news is shocking across the United States! I've never read so many horrifying stories than I do nowadays. I recently read about a New York City ambulance driver who raped an 11-year-old girl! A woman in Texas stole over $1,000,000 from her company. The prosecutor sought a lengthier prison sentence, since she stole a larger amount of money. The day before her sentencing in court, she commit suicide in her car with a gun! That is so sad and heartbreaking! In another tragic news story not too long ago, four boys in Florida laughed and mocked a man, as he was drowning. They filmed the incident, shouting to the man on camera: “You're going to drown! Ha, Ha, Ha!” The poor man did in fact drown. The police were outraged, but the boys could not be charged because there are no laws to charge them. Those punks should be water-boarded within an inch of their life! I could literally mention a thousand tragic stories if I searched the news for them, just from this year alone in 2018. The United States is going to ruin, worse than Sodom!
Humanity has always been sinful, but all moral restraints are being removed today in the U.S., and the darker side of human nature is coming out—because of the famine of God's Word, because the churches have lost their authority (which is the inspired Word of God, aka, the King James Bible), because of the flood of demonic influences through media (which stir unholy passions in the human soul), because of the absence of fathers in most homes today, because of the federal legalization of homosexuality and abortion and indecency, because pastors are no longer preachers, because technology has distracted people from seeking God, et cetera. America is headed for imminent doom!!! Ross Harris is just the tip of the iceberg! The Titanic is sinking!!!
Americans are choosing to do wrong because they have no fear of God, and we are to blame for that, for allowing our government to deprive children of the inspired Word of God. Enroll your children into a Christian school! That is the greatest gift you could ever give to a child, next to attending a Bible-believing church, and making sure they know you love them unconditionally. These are perilous times. Sin and crime will escalate as the moral standards continue to deteriorate across the country in the media (Hollywood, television, music, videos, laws, curriculum, medical policies, et cetera). Things have gone from crazy to insane! In California, schools are no longer permitted by law to use the archaic terms “mom” and “dad,” because it might ostracize children with homosexual caretakers. So the schools are pushing neutral terms; such as, “parent” or “caregiver.”
I was watching Star Trek Nine the other day and the intro changed from the original Star Trek series. Instead of saying, “Where no man has gone before,” now it says, “Where no person has gone before!” That is disgusting! Political correctness is the stinking rot of American society!!! Social media is ruining society. Compelling a society to speak in certain approved politically correct terms is a forerunner to losing our First Amendment rights to freedom of religion, speech and press! It is important that as Christians we refuse to conform to the kooky speech standards of liberal whacks! It will be a cold day in Hell before I stop calling parents, “mom and dad.” I still call mentally-ill people what they are, “retarded.” Foreigners who illegally sneak into our country are criminals, properly called “illegal aliens”! That is what they are! Political correctness is nothing more than liberals, kooks and queers pushing their sick and ungodly views upon the rest of society! Joshua 24:15b, “as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.”
Thank you for reading this lengthy sermon article, from my heart, intended to edify you. I pray that God has spoken to your heart, as my words have spoken to your mind. God bless you dear reader!

Jeremiah 23:36
Did you know that you don't have to ask Jesus to save you? God has already told you how to be saved, that is, by simply believing that His Son died on the cross for your sins, was buried, and raised up from the dead three days later. Christ raised up from the dead, which means that God the Father accepted His Son's payment for the sins of the world. Christ suffered on the cross so that we wouldn't have to suffer in a literal Hell forever. Amen! You don't have to bow your head to be saved. You don't have to pray. You don't have to do anything except believe that Jesus died on the cross for your sins, and make that your only hope for Heaven!

Give Me Jesus!
(video sermon by Pastor Danny Castle
- You don't want to keep your eye on others, because
they'll let you down. They'll hurt you.
And you don't
want to keep your eyes on yourself, because you'll feel
inadequate, like a loser and a failure. Keep your eyes
on Jesus!)
Salvation is not doing your best, it is having Christ's best put to your account through receiving Him by faith.
God will not save anyone who is trying to be saved, He will only save those who are trusting to be saved.
Religion is man trying to reach God
through human effort, but Christianity is
God trying to reach man by
the sacrifice of His only begotten Son on the cross.
