Here is Janet's response to being pulled from the VCY America Network and recent comments posted online about our ministry and May Day 2010:

Janet Porter and Faith2Action remain steadfast in the belief that the Bible is the infallible word of God, Jesus Christ is the Son of God, and the second person of the Trinity, whose death and resurrection provide the sole means of salvation and a relationship with God the Father.

May Day was a day of repentance at the Lincoln Memorial for our sins and the sins of our nation—in all fifty states and in every area of influence.  The name of Jesus was lifted high, the Gospel was proclaimed, and many people were saved.

I learned an important lesson from my friend and mentor, Dr. D. James Kennedy when he first hired me to be the National Director of his Center for Reclaiming America.  I told him that he shouldn’t hire me since I didn’t agree with him on everything--I wasn’t a ‘five point Calvinist.’  His response was one I never forgot; he said: “Janet, we agree on the ‘main things,’ and he hired me that day.

While two of our Jewish brothers attended May Day, one who read the Ten Commandments, the other who outlined how the United States has turned from the nation of Israel, all others prayed in Jesus’ name.  While I don’t agree with every speaker on every belief, to the best of my knowledge, with every other person who spoke, there was agreement on the “main thing”—the basic belief that the Bible is the infallible word of God, Jesus Christ is the Son of God, and the second person of the Trinity, whose death and resurrection provide the sole means of salvation and a relationship with God the Father. 

Faith2Action continues its Biblical mission to equip Christians to be salt and light in our dark and decaying world.  To proclaim the Gospel and stand for the truth outlined in God’s word which is under assault in our culture.  It is the Great Commission that commands us to not only make disciples, but to also teach them to “observe all things that I have commanded you” (Matthew 28): including the sixth commandment: “Thou shalt not kill.”  We have shed innocent blood in this nation and that was one of the many sins for which we repented on May Day.  This isn’t about “dominion theology” but rather about obedience to God in every area of influence.

Our nation is in peril and if we are going to maintain the freedom to spread the Gospel in our lifetime, it is going to take a unified effort.  While we will never compromise the basic tenants of the Christian faith, we must be willing to work together with those who share our desire to obey God—even if we don’t agree with them on everything.

I am very grateful to VCY America for airing the Faith2Action program on its network and continue to pray daily for Vic Eliason’s complete healing and for his continued service to use the airwaves to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Ms. Poter this the first time making contact with you even that your voice is being part of my daily life almost every weekday in the last few years. I remenber when God touch my hart to pray for a mate for you, way before you meet your husband and the joy I felt when you gave the news about Mr. Poter. Likewise I share your sorrow for the different trials you going thru in the last few months, first your Dad sickness and now WVCY decision. We do need more true belivers like You that are willing to do what God direct them to do regardless of the consequences that he or she may encounter. I am 54 years young and I come from a very concervative Christian background but God more than 15 years ago have taken me to a place of not religion or selfrightioness but to a true relationship with my Lord and Savior Jesus. I know what is to suffer due to human shortsigh regarding being obedient and guided by the Holy Spirit. One thing I have learn, just leave everything in the hand of Him who commissioned you to Your post. Like me there are thousands that are with you that probably for what ever reason have not made contact with you but we are lifting you before the Throne of Grace. Never forget that there still a long way before we will heard "Well Done My Faithfull Servant".

Janet,

I'm the guy from PA that asked for the sign interpreter; I met you at the book table at the end of the MayDay 2010 gathering.

Mayday 2010 was a wonderful time and all my friends enjoyed it! Thank you!

I was excited to hear your comments on Monday's F2A program and was very disappointed when I heard the announcement that F2A was pulled from VCY, to put it bluntly, I was shocked! I was sure there must be some misunderstanding.

I investigated what VCY had on their web site and listened to Crosstalk for their explanation. I don't believe I've ever heard you say anything regarding "dominion theology", and you certainly are not responsible for the comments of your guests; but there again, I don't remember hearing them say anything about it.

I found out from your web site you are on ReachFM, so that's where I listened today, and will continue to listen! I'm sorry about the way VCY feels, but will continue to listen to Crosstalk, and perhaps some of their music. I've known Brannon House for several years from the Worldview Weekends my wife and I have attended. He's a great guy!

I get most of my info from you and AFA! Keep up the great work and may the Lord Jesus continue to bless you and F2A.

BTW: I missed your WND article yesterday, I hope there's no problem there?

In Christ,
Dan Hall

Thanks and prayer
written by Belanne Pibal, June 03, 2010

Hello Mrs. Porter.
I would like to thank you for the many years of informative updates and your strong stand for Christ and Christian values throughout the years that I have been a listener of F2A.

I have had some trouble, both with posting here and listening to the show on-line since the split with VCY. I hope that those issues will be fixed soon.

I have taken great comfort from hearing your perserverence in the face of strong criticism day after day and year after year. I have faced my own challenges(though not anywhere near the challenges folks like you must face)and I am not always successful in how I would have liked to respond to those challenges. The ones that hurt the most come from those in whom you place the most trust. With that in view, this must be a very trying time for you indeed and I would like you to know that I am praying for you and your family.

Take the time you need to dust yourself off, examine yourself and your doctrine(Because, with a challenge from such a source[VCY], it would be wrong not to take a step back and examine yourself to see if the criticism has any merit. Only you know the answer to that and only you can examine yourself to see where you are.

I know that some of the folks on my facebook list were inspired to attend the MAYDAY event because of my postings on it. They said it was a wonderful gathering to pray.

I hope to be able to hear your broadcasts again soon.
(My apologies if this posts twice. as I mentioned above, I've been having some trouble with the site.)

Prayers for you and your family, especially your Dad
written by Nancy Korotka, July 04, 2010

Dear Janet, My heart and prayers are with you and your Dad in his time of great need! I've been there, so I know what it is like. It is in God's hands and He knows best, so we just pray and hope for the best. I really miss hearing your show - I was in total shock when I put VCY on the Monday after Mayday 2010 to see how things went. I know what Vic was talking about was not coming from F2A. How could you possibly know what all the speakers were going to say. I wanted to be there so bad but was there in spirit and prayer. I'm just sorry that you guys aren't on anymore. Since I live in Mayville, I can't get any good radio stations to get your program and my computer is shot so I have to go to the library to read your web page and can't listen to anything. God bless you all for all that you do in our precious Lord Jesus' name!
