I read a statistic that said about 16% of the country stopped talking to a family member because of politics. My own daughter has shunned her parents because of it.

The celebrities encouraging people to ruin their own families are truly doing the devil’s work. May God judge them harshly.

One of my daughters was headed that way, but I ripped her good about the importance of family vs. politics. I never get stern with them now that they are grown, so I guess the impact was felt.

Hope it holds!

I know. It's happening all over the nation.

But it shouldn't surprise us.

Christ warned about such things when those who choose the light of God and truth are opposed by those who reject the same.

"And a person’s enemies will be those of his own household." Matthew 10:36

Sounds strikingly like the Nazi in Germany having children turn parents in if they disagreed with Hitler. Next step?

Each side is being played against the other. The conservatives are being encouraged to be outraged. The liberals are outraged for a different set of reasons but the emotions on each side are basically the same. Outrage is the closest thing to the wrath of God of which the human heart is capable. It seems obvious that the enemy plays both sides. The objective is division and hatred and violence. The means is the outrage of both groups. The liberals are unhinged, mentally disturbed, but what about us? Armed to the teeth and sitting on go...Why? justifiable outrage! We’ve had enough and we are armed to the teeth. HGell anyway I”M armed to the teeth. I don’t think I’m alone here. What if we are all being stoked by one side who only wants us to kill each other. Now that would be satanic. We wonthis Supreme Court battle, but it pushed both sides just a little closer to a shooting war.

I was just going to reply with this:

These are the times that I can’t speak when praying but just let the tears roll in mourning and agony. I don’t know how He can take it, knowing it all, hearing them, seeing them. He is so patient, and I, I would be like, instead of having Noah build the ark I would do it for him instantly. Of course, He was waiting for SOMEBODY to repent!

And then I read your reply. I think parents want God to wait until the truth is REVEALED (I truly pray it opens their eyes) and their prodigals come home.
