WHAT IS WRONG WITH AMERICA!
Where is the America I grew up in? There were problems then, but people worked together to solve the problems. The hate and vitriol of today did not exist. True the nation was rife with prejudice, and difficulties, but we were working to solve those problems and pretty much did that. Religion used to be Christian, Catholic, and Jewish, now we are flooded with many types of religions, the land is polluted with worship of all types. The founders of the country were either Christian or Deist, the Christians wanted to build a nation that honored the God of the Scriptures, the Deist believed the God of the Bible was the true God, but did not believe He had a role in daily life, but together they built the nation allowing for freedom of religion. Was that freedom meant to allow foreign gods in our midst? Or was it freedom to worship in the different denominations, i.e.: Baptist versus Methodist versus Presbyterian, etc? Reading of history suggest those were the differences they tried to eliminate. A review of the history of this nation tells a compelling tale of a nation blessed by God because of its Christian heritage. Equally, as we move away from the God of Scripture, we lose those blessings. The more inclusive we are of foreign religions, the more we see evidence of God abandoning the nation. A study of Scripture will confirm that as Israel abandoned the true God for the foreign gods, Scripture clearly states that rejecting God resulted in the loss of wars, and horrible natural conditions such as plagues, famines and droughts. When Israel returned to the God of Scripture, they were again blessed with victory in battle, and with plenty. It seems plain to me, that we as a nation need to return to the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, The God who died for our sins. I pray to God for a great awakening in this century as in the 18th century. It’s been a long time coming, But I pray that God will save this nation soon.
