by Shawn Meyer With a few exceptions, the record of the kings of Israel and Judah is a biblical Who’s Who of powerful evil. One of those refreshing exceptions is King Hezekiah. He knew his place, obeyed God, and showed humility before Him. Unlike the kings who preceded him, he displayed a passionate hatred of idolatry. 2 Kings 18:5-6 eulogizes, “Hezekiah trusted in the LORD, the God of Israel. There was no one like him among all the kings of Judah, either before him or after him. He held fast to the LORD and did not cease to follow him.” (NIV). Despite all that counts in his favor, there are at least two blemishes on Hezekiah’s legacy. One was a profoundly foolish decision; the other was an appallingly sinful attitude. Both are recorded in 2 Kings, chapter 20. All eyes were on Assyria. Judah’s brothers to the north had recently fallen to King Shalmaneser. Though God had just delivered Judah from the Assyrians, their brutal campaigns and continued world dominance offered cover for a quietly rising power in the east. Word had reached Babylon that King Hezekiah had fallen ill. In an apparent goodwill gesture, the king of Babylon sent emissaries with gifts. By the time they arrived, God had healed Hezekiah, who was feeling well enough to give them the grand tour, foolishly showing off all the treasures of the palace. Unbeknownst to Hezekiah, they took mental inventory before returning to Babylon. Enter Isaiah the prophet. He rebuked Hezekiah’s indiscretion, saying, “Hear the word of the LORD: The time will surely come when everything in your palace, and all that your fathers have stored up until this day, will be carried off to Babylon. . . And some of your descendants, your own flesh and blood, that will be born to you, will be taken away, and they will become eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.” Instead of the desperate weeping and calling out to...

by John J Kirkwood The dirty little secret about the Republican candidate for Governor in Illinois is that he’s already governing like an Illinois Democrat. Bruce Rauner, like the prettiest girl in the school, usually gets whatever he wants. What makes him so effective? Republicans are desperate, Bruce is a billionaire, and nothing is as persuasive to a desperate loser as cold hard cash. How does a pro-abortion, pro-homosexual rights candidate, who is cool with amnesty, raising the minimum wage, and “common sense” gun control, get the Republican nomination in Illinois? The Chicago way – he buys it. But what about the tea-party and the values voters? Surely their principle rises above the level of bribery? “Two years ago, Rauner also began making large cash payments to Republican, tea party, and other right-wing groups,” writes William Kelly for ChicagoNow. “In 2008, the same groups stood on hilltops and angrily railed, fists pumping in the air, against “pay to play” politics, Illinois corruption, and anyone connected with the name, ‘Rod Blagojevich.’ However, as soon Bruce Rauner showed up with his checkbook, these groups fell quickly in line. Freedomworks’ Matt Kibbe was among the first to sign-on to Team Rauner. Rauner paid other 501(c)3 groups like the Illinois Policy Institute and Jack Roeser’s Family Taxpayers Foundation more than a half million each and, in return, these groups helped organize his political ground game during the GOP primary.” There are some in the tea-party that just took a check – hundreds of thousands of dollars were paid to certain groups while others were conned into a phony “term-limits” fiasco. I guess John McCain will have to revise his slam against the tea-party, In Illinois we don’t have Hobbits – we have the Scottish Lords that betrayed William Wallace. But the Pro-Life groups will remain steadfast, surely they won’t waiver? I wish it were so. “Bruce has been one of the largest supporters of the ACLU Reproductive Rights Project [abortion] for over 20...
