I talk to a lot of people these days; many friends and associates.
So many of them are holding onto a vain hope, that "things will get better" and "we will recover from Obama."
I tell them that I don't believe that.
This nation has fallen so far, so fast, that I have very, very little hope that it will recover.
I doubt that few posters on Free Republic are over 90 years old. A generation is 70-80 years. In a generation, our nation has fallen so far morally and spiritually that I cannot imagine, barring a miracle, that we would return to Jesus Christ. We are Ripe for Judgment.
So many people that I know, who identify as "Conservatives" and "Republicans" are placing ALL their hope in their Investments, 401Ks, IRAs, Gold, Silver, Real Estate, Guns, Social Security, Pensions, Medicaid, and anything else.
Even at the stage of life their have reached, they believe that God intended them for One Big Golf Marathon rather than the Gospel.
Or boating......or eating in restaurants....or whatever.....
Anything, but Christ.
I agree with every word.
It is too far gone to save because for now, the evil is outweighing the good. It’s impossible for man to fix.
Too many are too far gone to even realize anything is wrong, let alone what dire straits we’re in. Discernment is foreign to them. They just keep texting, taking selfies, watching totally worthless TV and become more Zombiefied by the day.
They can’t name a single one of the Ten Commandments but they sure know who Madona is and the kind of deodorant she uses.
...our nation has fallen so far morally and spiritually that I cannot imagine, barring a miracle, that we would return to Jesus Christ. I can understand your feelings on this matter; as they are similar to Jonah's.
He just KNEW that Ninevah was going to be destroyed.
Jonah 4:5
Jonah had gone out and sat down at a place east of the city. There he made himself a shelter, sat in its shade and waited to see what would happen to the city.
