Does any of you think that because the United States has rejected G*D and elected Obama that he has withdrawn his hand of protection on this country and that is why the hits are coming thick and fast now?
My car didn’t start this morning.
Absolutely.
Yes. Look up!
I think we elected Obama because He has withdrawn His support for us.
Obama or not, we’ve rejected God. Perhaps God gave us Obama because of our rejection.
I’m only in my mid-30’s but have never before witnessed the radical change that is happening in our country. Washington is so corrupt that it is beyond redemption.
America’s best days are behind her. We peaked in the 50’s.

Do you think the election of Obama and the rejection of God are one in the same? Do you think we'd have honored God by electing John McCain instead?
Unfortunately, they aren't the only ones that are going to suffer. But that isn't unusual in this world.
I do have hope that, if we pray and work, He may yet extend mercy to us and revive our nation.
Every time the Israelites rejected God and removed themselves from His presence; what happened?
Answer: Their enemies overtook them.
I would say that our current crop of ‘leaders’ are evidence God is letting us go our own way. Also in this defense look at the decay of our society and values. If you look at scripture theres always a slow decline into slavery and the US is well on its way. Is it inevitable we’ll wind up at the bottom? I think not. Scripture also says if we (the church) turn from our evil and call out to God he’ll heal our land. So, a crash and burn isn’t a forgone conclusion.
God doesn’t change. Read what he let happen to Isreal when they rejected him.
Also read what happens when people repent and turn back to him.
The US has not rejected God.
The US is under attack from within, and God is not going to stand for it.
This is God’s fight, and God always wins.
I have a fungus in my boxwoods
Is this a vanity?
Why do you believe God has removed His protective hand?
We’ve had three major terror attempts that have slipped right through our best security measures (sarcasm dripping), and for all practical purposes, should have succeeded and caused much damage.
Miraculously... they failed. Not prevented... just didn’t work.
God can work through idiots as well as saints.
America cried out for a king and they got one. God said in the passed you want a king you can have one, you will live with the consequences.
Hello Alex. I was asking about you the other day. Seems you took a break from FReeping. Welcome back.
BTTT. From your FReep page:
“If My people, who are called by My name
...not the unsaved, not the non-church-goer, not the atheist, and not those who belong to other religions....
will humble themselves
...we Christians better start getting used to the idea that we’re part of the problem. Yes, we helped make this mess...
and pray
...if we’re not asking for His help, we might not get it...
and seek My face
...He’s not just our Savior, He’s supposed to be our Lord. We need to find out what He wants us to do. We don’t tell Him what we want to do...
and turn from their wicked ways
...again, we’ve been part of the problem all along. If we don’t admit it, and we don’t change what we’re doing, don’t expect the things around us to change either...
then will I hear from heaven
...notice it’s an if/then equation. If we don’t do all of the above, He makes no promise to hear us...
and will forgive their sin
...we need to recognize that our country’s problems are ultimately ethical problems. God [the Person you are praying to/seeking the face of] sets the rules....
and will heal their land.”
...note that this comes only at the end of everything above. If our priorities are out of whack, we’ll probably think that God needs to heal this land first.
We who are Christians need to repent. This is the only thing that will free this country again.
Many Americans have not rejected God and did not elect Obama.
If he wanted to punish Obama and the Left, there are plenty of ways he might do that without punishing his children.
The voters of the United States rejected our constitutionally guaranteed republican form of government, and the communists were able to capture all three branches of government.
With or without God, stupid voters get what they voted for.
