In your world, this is a Christian Nation, but God lets sin and lukewarmness in the church go unpunished. Good luck fighting against God.

Again, read the Old Testament. It is all about sin among believers COMPELLING God to raise up enemies, like ours.

“If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.”
2 Chronicles 7:14

Think this does not apply?
