All-Time Low of Americans Believing in God Threatens Our Gov't and Society
Pro Deo et Libertate on Substack ^ | June 21, 2022 | Catherine Salgado

“Reason and experience both forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principles.” —George Washington

MRCTV reported, “Number of Americans Who Say They Believe in God Drops To All-Time Low.” This recent Gallup poll should concern us not just from a religious standpoint, but also from a cultural and political standpoint.

As Andrew Breitbart used to say, “Politics is downstream from culture.” He could also have said with perfect truth, “Politics and culture are downstream from religion.” The Founding Fathers understood this, which is why—contrary to popular belief and modern constitutional interpretive theory—they insisted that American society and government could not be separated from religion and survive.

Is it any wonder why so many are displaying the fruit (as listen in Romans 1:24-32) associated with being turned over to depraved minds in their lives?

They will come back during the tribulation, if they survive it in time

This comes as no shock to anyone who reads and believes the Bible. It will get much much worse.

I think we are pretty much living in the last days. It would be nice if the rapture were to occur within the next few weeks, but I doubt it will happen.

Don't ever accept the narrative from the enemy.

This "poll" is from Gallup. Enough said.

Uncivil people don’t have religious principles or morals but they wonder why their lifestyle is a angry one.
No wonder things are like they are now as the left calls it Utopia.

But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away! For of this sort are those who creep into households and make captives of gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts, always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
—2 Timothy 3: 1-7

That threat is being faced by every western country, and you can place the responsibility directly upon the Modernists’ destruction of Catholicism triggered by the Satan Council (1962-1965).

I can’t find the word “rapture” anywhere in the Bible. What year was this rapture “doctrine” first taught? I believe it is based on Bible translations that Preacher Darby devised in the early 1830s. Prior to that time I don’t think any Christian denomination ever taught it!

Speaking of Utopia, you might enjoy reading the book entitled Utopias Elsewhere by the psychiatrist Anthony Daniels, published in 1991.
