Transforming lives with Good News in the Nation’s Capital
Mar 30, 2022
One soldier characterizes the decision before him as a “Daniel in the lion’s den” moment. These men and women are being forced to choose who they will serve—God or government. Joe Biden will have it no other way. We must stop him.
We are committed to fighting against Biden’s purge of the religious faithful from the ranks of the military. Will you stand with us and these people of faith in our military? Send urgent faxes to Congress to push for freedom from these mandates. —Mat
The Department of Defense (DOD) has received over 24,000 religious accommodation requests, yet it has replied with blanket-denials. Every day members of our team speak with service members and their spouses who are under intense pressure. One soldier who faces discipline broke down and wept.
Our hearts break for these brave people who literally offer their lives to defend our freedom.
PLEASE help us help these precious people.
Many of our faithful military heroes continue to hold out against Biden’s unlawful and deadly injection orders.
Christopher (not his real name) is one of the religious service members refusing the shots.
Christopher likens his situation to a “Daniel” moment, writing:
“If religious exemptions are denied, all religious freedoms are falling right behind. If this fails, you will be forced to decide in a short time whether you stand with the Military or with Jesus.”
Christopher is standing with Jesus.
“Daniel didn’t HAVE to pray visibly,” writes Christopher. “He could have prayed in his head and still honored God and kept his position. Instead, because of his position, because he knew people were looking up to him, because he was a greater magistrate ... he visibly prayed in front of his window to inspire and embolden others to remain true to their faith. He was a leader and a man.”
As an officer, Christopher has not hidden his decision OR the religious reasons behind it from the men and women he leads. Christopher will stand, no matter what comes, in his own “Daniel in the Lion’s Den” moment. Like many honorable service members, he believes he will forfeit the right to lead by example if he dishonors God and does not follow his convictions.
After defending OUR religious freedom, these brave men and women of the military are being coerced, cajoled and threatened in every possible manner. Overseas personnel who refuse the shot are being told they will be discharged and forced to pay their own way home if they do not comply.
These service members will have to come up with tens of thousands of dollars to move themselves, their families and their entire households stateside—or they will be left stranded in a foreign land.
Other service members are being told they will be forced to repay all of their education and training costs! In the case of fighter pilots, this bill would be millions of dollars, bankrupting our nation’s best and brightest while kicking them out of the military.
We have spent the past two years fighting incredible tyranny in our nation and really the whole world. This has taxed our team and our resources very deeply. We have never seen the attack on religious freedom like what is happening now.
YOU can help stand up for Christopher, and so many others like him, with an urgent fax right now to Congress. Congress is looking into budget negotiations now. Republicans are not as helpless and powerless as they want you to think they are. Our leaders need an infusion of courage, and we need to hold them accountable right now.
Our military has put their lives on the line to defend us, and now it is time for us to rise up and stand with them! Send your urgent fax now to Congress and state leaders demanding action to protect people of faith. Even if you have already contacted Congress, they need to hear from you again.
Our team at Faith & Liberty is providing critical assistance on multiple legal cases in multiple state and federal courts covering these issues. We WILL NOT stop until religious freedom is fully restored.
Please pray that Judge Steven Merryday will quickly issue an order protecting the entire class of all military members from this abuse and unlawful shot mandate.
We have already lost some service members who have been injured by these shots, like Lt. Col. Peter Chambers, M.D. When in Afghanistan, an AK-47 round could not stop him. When he healed, he returned to serve … until now. The Moderna shot did what a bullet couldn’t do—it stopped him from serving. His body’s reaction to this COVID shot includes a debilitating demyelination disease that forced him into early retirement because of nerve damage caused by the Moderna shot.
In addition, we have knowledge of service members who took their lives under the intense pressure they faced to cave to getting this shot.
These mandates are damaging our military!
Help us stand up and stop this. Our Challenge Grant opportunity has been extended. Give now and have YOUR GIFT’S IMPACT DOUBLED. The need is great. The time is NOW. Stand with us!
We wish we could speak with you in person to share the intense emotions we experience every day on this and many other urgent needs. Thank you for your care and concern. We pray you are moved to help us help these heroes.
Your missionaries to Washington, D.C.,
Peggy Nienaber, Vice President
Mat Staver, Chairman
Rev. Gregory Cox, Lead Missionary
