Gentleman

Civil enough thus far - let it so remain. There are also plenty of examples in G_d's Holy Word of Him having stayed his hand of judgment, or alternatively, refrained from removing his hand of blessing if you prefer.

Not least among these is Nineveh, which underwent the greatest revival recorded in scripture when everyone from the high King to the lowly stable mucking workers humbled themselves before their Lord in sackcloth and ashes, repented of their wickedness, and begged forgiveness.

Jonah, recall, was not amused. Rather he was angered because he did not understand the depth of the Father's mercy and capacity to forgive, thus there came to Jonah the vine for shelter, the withering of the same under a relentless hot, dry wind, and the object lesson.

I know not all on FR believe the same; I see each year of legalised medical murder since Roe v. Wade as a holocaust and an affront to G_d. There are other things in our American society/culture (and that of other western "Christian" nations as well) which I believe deeply offend Him as they do me. Just one example is the state sponsored celebration of homosexual perversity. But that is just one more example of sin at work in this world, rotting and decaying away the fundaments upon which we tread.

It is equally a fact that there are folk in the US and other countries who are standing (as best as they humanly can) for Biblical righteousness, and against the sinful and libertine behaviour which you (FB) and others decry.

This confrontation is clearly foretold in the Word. My belief and understanding is that both evil, and the righteousness of those who are reserving their place in G_d's kingdom, become more sharply pronounced in their contrast of absolutes as the endtimes of this earth draw to a crescendo in their prophetic expressions. That is what I see now without question.

The casualties/victims of the epic confrontation between the spiritual principalities could be accurately said to reflect the consequences of sin and its effect upon this world (IMO).

That the world still lives and breathes, and has neither been destroyed nor destroyed itself reflects nothing less than G_d's Providence and Mercy.

Pax Vobiscum, Pax Dominum, et Lux Aeterna

A.A.C.

Well, I see there is no shortage of those wanting to speak for God here, so let me have my turn.

God is calling upon us as a nation and as individuals to resist and expel Islam from our shores. If this can be done without material or personal injury or deaths, so much the better, and the sooner the better.

In all of our admonitions for America to repent, it is noted here that it is time for the followers of Islam to repent and forsake its false 'god' and its strange teachings or suffer world-wide extreme prejudice.

And God did finally, later, utterly destroy Nineveh. AND FOR THE VERY SAME SINS THAT JONAH PREACHED AGAINST. That's what the O.T. book of Nahum is about.

Ro 13:12. "The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light."

Eph 5:11. "And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them."
