Christian Newswire: WELCOME BACK HOME, WAL-MART!

MEDIA ADVISORY, June 26 /Christian Newswire/ -- We are rejoicing today over the fact that Wal-Mart is coming back home! In the fall of 2006, Operation Save America joined several other ministries in a battle for the heart and soul of America's largest corporation -- Wal-Mart. Over the years she had become America's favorite family store and was blessed by God Himself as she followed the God honoring principles of her founder Sam Walton.

In comes the radical homosexual agenda. :scared: It attempts to blackmail this powerful corporation, as it has done with so many others, by causing it to agree to support the gay agenda or be exposed as a discriminatory, homophobic monster. Wal-Mart bowed her knee to the pressure of this lie.

Thousands of faithful Christian friends came to her aid, however, and reminded her of the God who made her great. We proclaimed Christ at Wal-Mart stores (over 300 of them) across the nation, and to Wal-Mart headquarters in Bentonville Ark., calling her back to the principles upon which she was founded.

The Church of Jesus Christ came out of the closet. :eyes: When she did, the enemy fled. Simple little Christian moms and dads, boys and girls, grammas and grandpas, the backbone of the Wal-Mart success story, said to the nation's largest retailer – "No! We will not tolerate homosexual sin." And the boycott began.

Wal-Mart listened. She saw the light when she felt the heat of the Christian boycott. Today she has promised to no longer financially support any homosexual cause. We rejoice over Wal-Mart's decision. We thank the thousands of gentle Christian warriors who gave their local Wal-Mart stores "heaven."

What is God saying in all of this? If He can turn the nation's largest and most powerful retailer around by the witness of simple little Christians, how much more might He turn America around? If God can save Wal-Mart can He also save America? You Bet He can! :crazy:

When Christians come out of the closet and allow their theology to become biography in the streets, America can be saved. It requires the Church of Jesus Christ to decide to put Christianity into action.

3. Dear GOD...

I can hear it now: "If you don't shop at walmart, you're not *really* a Christian...

:puke::eyes::puke::eyes::puke::eyes:

What is particularly sad is that with just ONE decision by Bush or Walmart or whoever else, they are so easily placated (and so easily fooled).

What is also ironic is that so many of the "little Christians" here in the south that make Walmart their religion are of the corrupt "word faith" philosophy that is so prevalent here.

Edit to add:
Why no mention of human rights? Oh sure, if Walmart backs away from support of homosexuals that's fine and dandy, but they can continue to force slave labor around the world and put other businesses out on the street with their anti-competitive ways and that's okay?

Isn't human rights a "Christian" issue???

4. Yet Wal-Mart partnering with abortion loving commies doesn't bother them?

6. It's just like with Bush.
Bush can throw them just ONE little bone and they eat it up like there's no tomorrow and praise their can-do-no-wrong leader. All it takes is ONE utterance of such a decision, without even following up to make sure it is being enacted.

Walmart: God in the flesh?
:puke:

5. Oh, I thought maybe they were committing to American-made products again
Guess that was the wrong guess.
