Welcome to Free Republic, since 10-13-08.
Many of us here put God first, and those of us who do need not worry. Whatever happens, His Hand is there. He is in the whirlwind.
If he judges America for abandoning her first love, then so be it. I am resigned to that possibility. We’ll still stand in the breach, pointing to Him and our First Principles.
Yep, ditto.
SO, I am shunned as a newbie? I have always put God and my Country first, and I take my politics seriously. But, I have never been more diametrically opposed to a candidate as I have Obama, so I set out to seek the truth on the Internet. And, all of my posts substiante my stance. Please embrace new input. We are all in this together, right?
I grew up in the church, got away during my 20s and 30s, started back about 15 years ago, and within the past 5 years have felt very compelled to get closer to God. I have been to church most every week, studied the scriptures, read and prayed daily, like never before in my life. Last year, turning 50 I made a pilgrimage to Rome and visited the Vatican about 6-7 times, although I am not Catholic. I have not understood why I felt so compelled, but I fill more religious, spiritual, and closer to God than ever before in my life. I hope and pray I am filled with the spirit, we may very well be facing unknown calamities.
