Our nation was basically formed as a Christian Nation. That is to say some came here to have freedom of worship and some just came here to exploit a new nation or gain income and/or power from people that had power.
When we became a nation the people that cared about “the people” mostly looked to God as a guide to making that happen. At that time God was represented by the religions that were formed in Europe, but they had one commonality, in that, they used the Holy Bible as a guide.
That was a good thing, but just like the “chosen people”, the Jews, of that Old Testament that didn’t understand the “Ten Commandment”, we the people began writing “what if” laws. Now we have to put up with women saying a woman has the right to have an abortion for no reason other than convenience. We have men that say they have a right to exploit common citizens to gain power and money. We have young and old men joining gangs or organizations for power and money.
How much patience does our God have? I am among some who believe, Got gave this land to a group of people that had not allegiance to any former government, and let them form a republic for the people under His banner. God could take this land away from us any time He choose, and let the country go to the devil which is what we seem to be worshiping.
Our problem isn’t money or prestige. God could take care of that with a whisper. Our problem is obedience. We have gangs because we let it happen. We have a corrupt government including local, state and federal because we let it happen. Who is guilty of that? Me and many others that let our thoughts wonder away from the Word. I have to include myself because I have had thoughts that were not good. My bible says if I think it; I did it.
We have elected a man that cares only for himself that those that support him. We have elected throughout this country governors and state and federal legislators that, for the most part, seek money and power with little thought for you and me.
Even how we have the strongest economy in the world and the world needs a Christian nation to help it become a strong Christian world as God intended.
I have no answer except to spread God’s love to each other here and let it spread to other countries. God likes that and will let us prosper.
