Well stated brother.
I agree.

The American people have not only allowed it, they have encouraged it and aided and abetted it. And this is only the beginning.
Amen to that.
I believe we passed the tipping point with the election of Obama and there is no turning around from the judgment that is coming.
Yup. America is not "going" to come under judgment, it is already here. Like birth pangs, the pain will now come with more severity and with increasing frequency.
There are many great people on this board. Conservative Christians and Jews, stout Libertarians, Conservative atheists, and other great folks.
But for those who believe that if we just elect some more Republicans, and then they can keep watching their 401Ks on their computer screens go up in perpetuity - they are fooling themselves.
I believe the collapse is coming, and God's judgment is coming, swifter than most people realize.
I could not have said it better.
headed toward?
We are there, but it will get worse
We fought for the culture of America from 1980 to 2005.
In 2005 there was a distinct cultural shift.
The death of Terry Schiavo, with no one to save her, exposed just how corrupt our systems had become.
The next year we saw the lunatics take over the asylum, with Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi ascending to positions of power.
In 2007 we saw them actively campaigning for us to lose in Iraq. We fought a war against amnesty and won a temporary victory. All sides wanted to to dilute our culture, but we resisted.
In 2008, our wall at the Southern border that we were promised was done away with by a Republican, Kay Bailey Hutchison. Also in that year we saw the rise and unfathomably, the election of an inexperienced cipher who, in spite of all signs to the contrary, was elected. On the converse, we saw an honorable and a capable woman, Sarah Palin, destroyed by both political parties. We also saw a financial collapse, the origins of which are murky to this day.
In 2009 the reign of Obama began. The GM bailout, the $900 million stimulus which accomplished nothing except to mask the transfer of wealth to his cronies,the Democrats putting forth all kinds of bad legislation, including Obamacare. We saw the first march on DC with over 500,000 showing up, that was promptly ignored by both parties.
In 2010, we got Obamacare, courtesy solely of the Democats. The Tea Party arose and turned the tide of the midterms, one ray of hope in the previous five years of decline.
In 2011 we were betrayed by John Boehner and Mitch McConnell, who caved in to Obama at every turn, with the clear desires of the American people being disregarded.
In 2012, we had a Democrat running against a Democrat in the worst deception ever played on the American public. Through all kinds of wrong-doing, including voter fraud, Obama was re-elected. We saw our government do NOTHING to save 41 Americans under attack in Benghazi, and then lie to us about the cause being a video. That the greatest military in the world would or could do nothing in the face of an attack by pissants was an ultimate betrayal and a humiliation of the highest order.
In 2013, we saw Obama flex his power, running roughshod over the GOP. A government shutdown, which he himself caused by his own intransigence, was successfully blamed on the Republicans.
We saw the President embrace his gayness, and dilute our military with the introduction of full rights for homosexuals, further endangering the effectiveness of our fighting forces that defend us.
In 2014,we saw the rise of medical marijuana and homosexual marriage being made legal in many areas. We have seen the good conservatives of the GOP be attacked and driven from the primaries. The corrupt election of Thad Cochran in Mississippi was but one indicator of the deep animus against good God fearing people by the GOP.
Now we face the deliberate introduction of a highly deadly strain of Ebola, being brought here by the actions of our own government.We saw the corruption of the IRS being used against us as a political weapon with no accountability, we have seem the corruption of a lawless Justice Department headed by the worst Attorney General in american history, we have our veterans uncared for, we have seen the beginnings of a race war, we see that the world may soon lose faith in our currency as the reserve currency of the world.We saw the rise of ISIS, and a possible fall of Iraq, where we spilled so much blood and treasure, and the possibility of renewed terror attacks here at home, through the feckless and deliberate actions of our President.
We are still in a financial depression, the culmination of which is almost upon us.
We are being threatened with an executive order on amnesty.
The year 2015 could well see an implosion of societal forces in America and a breakdown of the social compact that has bound us for almost 240 years.
Soon the center will not hold, and things will fly apart.
2014 represents the last peaceful chance this country has of correcting its course, and stopping the slide to destruction.
Mr. Dobson and Mr. Graham have proven to be true warriors for the Gospel and for America as the bringer of that Gospel to the world.
It must pain them so to see, near the very end of their lives(Dobson is 78,and Graham will be 96 in November), have far we have slid. in spite of their best efforts.
The blood of over 60 million American children through abortion is not going to be overlooked by a just God.
Who would have thought that such small minds such as those in the Democrat leadership would have been able to take down this great nation, with hardly any opposition.
Ten days will tell the tale. On November 4th this country either survives and turns back, or this country is over. The stakes are very high.
America will not be the first country to fall from greatness. But it will be the first country to fall so damn effortlessly.
May God have mercy on us.
We’re already there. Homo-marriage makes it symbolically clear, if anything. America has become a grotesque sewer of depravity. Hence, my own ever-declining interest in the preservation of the republic as a whole. It renders such matters as politics and elections increasingly moot as well, when there’s no longer a nation that appears remotely salvageable or worth fighting for.
Well said......
Like others, I too wish there was a place to bug out.....
....but where does one go?
That is the one verse I read more than others these days - thanks.

I believe that by the end September 2015, the collapse will be terminal.
I think being mobile and flexible but staying within the USA is our best bet. Not all regions/states will be affected in the same way.
Sheesh, no kidding...
Who is standing for righteousness any more? Where are the voices of the pastors who have huge TV audiences? Are they calling for repentance? No! The call should’ve gone out a couple decades ago, but it has been silence. This didn’t just happen overnight since Obama came to office. What happened since he came to office is that he ramped it up several notches and there was no response from our “shepherds”. Those of us who have spoken out are not listened to because we are not clergy...who are we to speak out and upset the “peace”?
Wicked men & women fill both political parties because the electorate are too unwilling to actually “vet” the candidates. Not only that, they believe the lies of wicked men against the righteous. That is particularly heinous. Not just the ones who perpetrate the lies, but the electorate who refuse to examine to see if there is any truth to it. It’s as they say, a lie gets halfway around the world before Truth gets its pants on. Why are we so susceptible to these lies? Because in our heart of hearts, we are too eager to believe them. Otherwise we’d pray for those we know to be good men and women.
Sodom and Gomorrah is already here with full blown depravity. You can tell by how much all things gay are promoted. The gay indicator! Pay attention to it. Also Satanic crimes among young people. They get that garbage off of popular TV shows
And I am not that religious at all. But I can see this! The same as you religious freepers do. It is awful and a sellout of the human soul.
Headed toward??? I think we arrived some time ago, checked in, took a shower, and have a couple of hookers on their way over.
This must be an old article.
We aren’t headed for depravity, we arrived there quite some time ago.

The Liberals’ One Word That Rots This Country
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/3217699/posts
Is it just me, or is there liberal rot taking place... Today, both local and national TV ads have drawn from the Liberal playbook to sell products. So many of them now feature that one word: “deserve”. You “deserve” better cable service. You “deserve” a high-end luxury car. You “deserve” legal service if you spilled hot coffee on yourself. [snip]
That word hints at the root problem: the leftist belief that this world should be made perfect. That belief poisons everything it touches. In particular, it poisons peoples’ expectations of a loving God.
This is global idolatry: “How could God possibly put us here? It’s so imperfect. How could He possibly give us such a dangerous free will? Our intentions are perfect, so why isn’t the world perfect?” But no one’s intentions are always perfect, are they?
