Jeremiah 17:5 Cursed is the man who puts his trust in man,who makes flesh his arm-and is turned from God.” We have trusted our Government.We have excused their error fearing we might be ridiculed for questioning authority.Yet I have been saying for twenty years that the American Government has replaced the role played by the Brits in the Founding era. For the same reasons.We have forgotten God(as President Lincoln so rightly put it March 30,1863.Except the Lord of Hosts had preserved to us a very small remnant we would have been made like Sodom and like unto Gomorrah.Romans 9:29 quoting Isaiah 1:9 see also Isaiah 13:19 Is America the new Babylon?
I’m not saying that things are great, just that the cycle has been seen before and there is hope for those who accept Jesus.
