Fear From the Desk of John Hagee and not A Dollar of Tax Money Collected

Below is a very political message, filled with fear and half truths, from a tax exempt ministry. The Rev. John Hagee says in this missive that "one of the foremost messages of this ministry is to shout into the ear of a slumbering America...Wake Up!" In his inevitable quest for more money he goes on to say "...please remember our Television Ministry that is at the point of attack in this righteous cause."

His weekly messages are fraught with political themes. Rarely, if ever, does he talk about saving souls or ministering to those in need. His ministry is at war with Fundamentalist Islam and the Obama Administration and is clearly political in nature. Yet, he continues to receive tax exempt status. Proceed gentle readers, and at your own risk, follow the above link to his weekly messages, where you will find pages of fear mongering, half truths, and, occasionally, outright lies.

FROM THE DESK OF PASTOR JOHN HAGEE

Greetings to all of our Salt Covenant Partners and friends across the nation and around the world.

This weekend America celebrated Memorial Day as a time to honor all Military Personnel who have given the last full measure of devotion for the preservation of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

Today, America is at war! We are at war with a radical religious element of Islam that feels they have a mandate from their god (Allah) to kill Christians and Jews.

I feel America is in the greatest danger as a nation that we have known since 1776. The elements that led to the attack on Pearl Harbor are all alive and well in Washington and the nation.

There is a sincere feeling among the enemies of America that every effort of our president to placate Iran and bowing before a Saudi prince are signs that Allah is with them and that victory over the West is at hand.

We live in a dangerous world! This weekend North Korea launched two nuclear missiles. As I write this article, Iran is working feverishly to develop a nuclear bomb to attack Israel and eventually the United States of America.

In spite of this obvious danger...America slumbers in a deep deception created by political correctness that all is well and that our enemies are inferior to our military might.

There is a dramatic difference between America and our enemies. They have the absolute will to destroy us...they just lack the weapons. As soon as they have the weapons, you will see a nuclear war breakout in the Middle East and then be transported to America.

If Iran is not stopped from developing nuclear weapons, America will see a terrorist attack that makes 9/11 a walk in the park.

One of the foremost objectives of our television ministry is to shout into the ear of a slumbering America..."Wake Up!"

I need your prayers and your financial support like never before to continue this battle. It is not my battle...it is our battle. This is a fight for the soul and future of America. It is a fight for the future of your children and grandchildren. Whoever wins this war has total control of your children's future.

When you pray...pray for America! When you give...please remember our Television Ministry that is at the point of attack in this righteous cause.

Blessings to you and to those you love.

Pastor John Hagee
