Mark 13:13 “You will be hated by all because of My name, but the one who endures to the end, he will be saved.”
Purdue University has banned God.
The University, which in the past has defended the rights of a speaker to blaspheme Jesus on their campus, told a donor they cannot put God’s name on a plaque because it could be offensive.
Dr. Michael McCracken made a pledge to the university’s school of mechanical engineering and Purdue offered the McCrackens a can to name a small conference room in the building according to Fox News.
Dr. McCracken wanted to name it after his father, a Purdue graduate. The plaque would have read:
“To those who seek to better the world through the understanding of God’s physical laws and innovation of practical solutions. In honor of Dr. William ‘Ed’ and Glenda McCracken.”
The University instead installed a God-free plaque without telling the family that only mentioned McCracken’s parents.
Fox News’ Todd Starnes has tried to get University officials to explain why they defended blasphemy of Christ on their campus but deny Christians the right to mention God but officials will not return calls.
Actually, this is just plain ignorance on their part.. the word God could be generic. It is his Name, Yud-heh-vav-heh, that could be offensive if they had the brains to realize that. There are many so called gods…but only One true God…El Elyon..(God Most High) creator God. The One to whom they will bow to one day.. whether they like it or not!
Love of money, fear of losing prestige & large donors, cowards fearful of court costs from threats of “offending” someone, and people with no backbone who will “put on the whole armor of God and Stand”, against the hour of the evil one — all add up to cherishing worldly values rather than God’s perfect principles.
When reading last chapters in the Book of Deuteronomy related to God’s warnings, I’d sure think a long time before removing God’s Name from the university. Was Purdue one of the universities established by Christian pastors? I’ll check into that.
It’s gonna be tough living in a country without GOD as our Lord! I don’t want to be here!
