OF COURSE there is a spiritual failure. There’s no question of that... but in my mind it started out when “Christians” started using government to do THEIR jobs. NOWHERE in Scripture have I ever found where Jesus said to get laws passed in order to stop sin. NOWHERE. What He said was for us to go forth and be His disciples, SHOWING BY EXAMPLE the difference Christ can make in folks’ lives. When Christians got lazy and started getting government to do THEIR job, they forgot that satanic forces can ALSO use the force of government to do THEIR job as well, and the result is the evil we see today.

So are YOU going out to seek out those downtrodden drug users and prostitutes and showing them that there’s a better way for them to live? Or are you just showing them that they either do it YOUR way or go to jail? Which is it, donna? Personal example or using the government and its force over EVERYONE to do your job toward the few?

Don’t you EVER try lecturing people until you can ASSURE them that you are doing YOUR OWN part to witness the way God wants Christians to witness: by personal example, NOT by force of government’s guns.

You want to get rid of Christians so drugs can be legal - that’s some plan.
