I agree. I have a bad feeling that a heavy judgement is about to come on the US for this, a real bad feeling! And honestly I hope for it!
Proverbs 15:5(KJV):
"A fool despiseth his father's instruction: but he that regardeth reproof is prudent."
Isaiah 1:18-20:
18 Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
19 If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land:
20 But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.
Luke 18:16-17:
16 But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.
17 Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein.
1 John 1:9-10: "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us."
John 14:15: "If ye love me, keep my commandments."
The press was NEVER the answer.
Did we ever imagine back then that this issue would be brought before the congress of the United States? Again, up to this point, to no avail. Governments are limited as well. God is and always has been the ONLY means whereby this could be settled. Prayer has always been the FIRST means of help, not a last resort. I do not belittle the temporal efforts made by us all, but in the final analysis, God sees our hearts and knows in whom we place our trust.
This is a retrospective and not pointed towards any of the wonderful freepers, and I'm sure, I'm just posting the thoughts of many here. Thanks for listening.
