Excerpts:
The clouds of war are gathering all over our world, but its not just a war of guns and missiles, it is war against God, the Creator Himself.
The Holy Ghost warned us in the prophesies of David. He wrote,Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying, Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us. (Psalms 2:1-3) From entertainment to the high courts of America, the blasphemous world is staging a war against God. The atheists, liberals, and apostate Christians all want a life without restraints and without the fear of judgment for sin. The words Merry Christmas, must become Happy Holiday, the Ten Commandments must be out of public sight, the preachers must remain behind closed sanctuary doors, and everything else must be stripped of morals. If God wont die, then at least the world wants His mouth shut.
Turn on the news and even conservative Fox News is stripped of morals. One of their stars, Bill OReilly, comes unglued if someone declares they believe in the Bible as the standard of living. When Bible-believing people are routinely criticized or treated as morons, war is being waged against God, not the individuals. While I deplore the God hating organizations like American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), People for the American Way, National Organization of Women, National Education Association, and their many counterparts, the biggest problem in this war is liberal and apostate Christianity. Lets try to understand both the secular and the religious facts about this war against God.
First, do I need to tell you who is going to win? God Himself has plainly stated, The earth is the Lords and the fullness thereof. (Psalm 24:1) If you have read the last chapter of His infallible Word, you already know that He will have the last word and will be victorious. He said by His Spirit, He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision. Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure. (Psalm 2:4-5)
The LORD shall reign for ever, even thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Praise ye the LORD. (Psalm 146:10) A Bible-believing Christian should not fear, be anxious, or trouble himself over our glorious future. The future of this earth and every saint of God is star-studded and breathtaking. Write it down in your book and walk with God in peace and hope.
The Facts about this War Against God
Americans must wake up and join this war that our enemy has engaged. Our God is going to win in the end, but the Bible makes it plain that your victory on a personal level is yours to fight. The devil has no power but what you either give him by choice or what you allow him by default. He has the right to engage you and stand against you and you have the responsibility to resist him or he wins. The world is loaded with wrecked lives because they did not join in the war to stop their enemy. Your family needs a priest that stands in the door of your home and says, Wait a minute, devil. Im in charge around here. The church must have pastors and elders that refuse the enemys efforts to destroy. Even the nation needs Godly prophets and prayer warriors that lead the charge against the destroyer. In each battle that is engaged, somebody wins, and the choice is ours.
We are experiencing some wonderful wins. Liberals succeeded in forcing the post offices in Montgomery County, Texas, to remove a framed picture of our flag, which included the motto, In God We trust. That is, except for one postmaster who refused, saying, over my dead body. Her stand caused the necessary attention all the way to Washington, DC. Now, the United States Postal Service has had 38,000 pictures of the Statue of Liberty, which include In God We Trust, framed to hang in every post office in America. While President,George Bush signed into law a bill reaffirming the words, In God We Trust, as our national motto. This is a war we lose only when we do not join in the battle.
The Killing of the Unborn
Killing unborn children is not a matter of a womans right, but a matter of a war against God. Every created human, whether in the mothers womb or in the mothers arms, is an eternal soul created by the Creator. A person that supports abortion is an enemy of God. There is no other way to say it. The Bible makes it plain that children are known from the mothers womb. John the Baptist was filled with the Holy Ghost when Elizabeth was six months with child. For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, even from his mothers womb. (Luke 1:15) The presence of the Son of Man in Marys womb was the very source of John being filled in Elizabeths womb. All our physical parts are known before we are conceived and listed in His book of human substance. Listen. For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mothers womb. I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well. My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them. (Psalm 139:13-16) To war against the unborn is to wage war against their Creator.
The Faith in Public Life
It has become clear that liberals love religion but hate the God of Holy Scripture. Once they were able to stop prayer in public schools and to demand the removal of the Ten Commandments, their attitude began to change. Now, they are demanding that Islam be studied and allowed as a faith issue in public life. They want all religions to be accepted as equal. This reduces Christianity to an empty idea on par with all religions. In this case, God is no longer a threat because He has lost His capital G. They do not mind God with a little g because then He has no authority to set moral standards on their lives. It is nothing but war against the one and true God.
Because the constitution is a Biblical document clearly based on Biblical principles, it must be destroyed. The war against God includes the war against the Bill of Rights and the United States Constitution. Individual rights are a Biblical matter and anathema to the liberal agenda. Capitol punishment is a Biblical deterrent to the destruction of innocent lives and must be forever destroyed. This unbridled warfare is a tool to create complete government domination over the populace of the people. Biblical government of the people cannot rightly take the wealth of the taxpayers to pass it out to whomever they choose. Every liberal issue is a Biblical issue. The liberals do not just want more government control; they want total government control because that is the Babylonian idea of one-world control. It is war against God and if they win, Gods kingdom loses. This cannot happen except in a limited fashion and for a limited time. But, if and when it does happen, you have nothing less than the horrors experienced by the Soviet Union until it destroys itself. The liberals of America will destroy this nation unless they are stopped. And the only reason they can win is if we fail to engage them in a spiritual battle by the power of God and His Word. Wake up, my friends, and join the war.
The Religious War Against God
As bad as it is to watch the liberal crowd rage war against truth, it is even worse to watch the church world do the same. Removing the Ten Commandments from public life would have ended long ago if the church had not followed suit. Removing prayer from our public schools could not have succeeded if the church had not stopped praying. A church on its knees can change every aspect of its society. Its invincible. Now, the liberal churches in America are anti-God and apparently unaware of their sick condition. The evangelicals and fundamentalists are following suit at neck-break speed...

Well, it’s devil driven. When the devil can’t get away with blasphemy, he has to make do with people not caring. Then when enough people don’t care, the blasphemy begins. The devil wants one thing only and that’s to brag against God and to get as many people as he can to do the same thing. And when this bragging becomes impossible, he rages. Hell wins a miserable victory — it forever snatches itself out of the love of God.
Can it be that BOTH are true, and it is not an either/or.
Wickedness leads to alienation from God’s love which leads to worse wickedness and so in on a vicious circle. And yet a choice remains: will a person treat this as an escalator to willingly take down to hell in ultimate defiance, or will a person treat it as a lesson to their previously willfully deafened ears?
You can’t cherry pick scripture. You have to also heed such statements that “God does not willingly grieve the sons of men.” So often, two factions fight because they have emphasized one side of the picture to the exclusion of the other. But if something has to win out, consider this: God “is” love, but God “has” wrath.
But yet I’d agree on something. We can’t beat fools in the power of the flesh. They must be addressed in the power of the gospel. Everybody is a fool; the only question is how bad a fool is he.
The economy of law, of deserving, can only spiral down to hell in worse and worse judgment. But the economy of grace, of salvation merited not by the sinner but by Christ, can pull any willing person out of the spiral.
Be careful about sleight of hand in drawing conclusions.
All liberals lack is the power to make it happen. And the tipping point is approaching.
What is The book, God Chasers about?
Sorry righttackle44, but I remember the 60s. There were good things then, but we also had hippies, free love, riots in the streets, crime, etc. Remember the Detroit riots - over 40 dead, and over 2000 buildings destroyed? Remember colleges being taken over by radicals? Remember how many resorted to drugs & sex and abandoned everything the previous generation believed?
Yet God sent revival.
It is not our place to decide God will no longer do anything for us. We need to pray for revival based on repentance.
The fault of the churches wasn’t in giving up scripture based theology. Some did, and they shrank. The fault was believing we were invincible, that God would never need to judge America, and that we could win a moral fight using politics instead of relying on the life-changing power of God.
These dark days ought to humble us, and remind us to meet together and beg God for revival. I was one of the many who repented and received life during the “Jesus People” revival. We need to focus on God, and beg for Him to move again.
Get your survivalist house in order .
Be ready. The Lord loves His warriors.
One respectful disagreement with this sentence. I'm the head of my household, and I DO stand in the door of my home with a similar prayer, but I say "Wait a minute, devil. The Lord Jesus Christ is in charge around here."
Well, I’m no biblical scholar and am lost in scripture, but my complaint is that our unlawful government is using the “force of law” to destroy our society and our constitution and our liberty. My feeling is in order to complete their mission of transforming America into a godless totalitarian state and perhaps later merge it into a world government, they must first destroy all traces of God from the public square and even from our minds and hearts.
They must brainwash the children starting at the youngest age possible (and they’re doing it). They are removing the word of God and all traces of the Christian religion from all government institutions including federal, state and local governments, public buildings, schools and possibly even churches and replacing it with love of mother earth, the animal kingdom (of which, according to them, man is just another species that can be bred, herded, worked and slaughtered at will), environmentalism, darwinism, collectivism, atheism, abortionism, homosexualism, sodomy, fornication and evil of just about any nature.
I’m pretty sure the bible mentions something to the effect that calling good evil and evil good is a bad thing and that nations or societies that do this or allow it are going to be bound for dark places. Well, we’re nearly there as a nation. And I’m not willing to be plunged into total darkness without a fight. Maybe I don’t have much to fight with but I intend to resist to the end.
The author of this piece says the end has already been written and God wins. I believe that. And my understanding is that God is also the beginning. We can influence nothing but the present and not much of that, but I’m not ready to surrender. We have no way of knowing how much longer our nation will continue, but I believe we need to try to reverse its present course for as long as it does.
Maybe God doesn’t want us to fight individually for our nation, and maybe we should be concerned only for our own souls, but I doubt it. And maybe the end is already here and we have already been judged and are already headed for hell and it’s irreversible... but I say fight on anyway. Not saying the scripture is stupid, but fight on just in case the conclusion has been misinterpreted. Fight on until the world goes dark, just in case it’s not too late. I’m pretty certain God will deal with us on his time.
Good point.
Christians need to vote and campaign for laws and elected government that reflect traditional American values.
We need to roll back the left’s gains of the last 50 years.
If you vote, then vote as a Christian, and never, never, try to deceive Christians into not voting as Christians, the Christian/conservative vote is the only hope for this nation, and to restore our culture and return to our limited government.
Big government feeds on social liberalism and acceptance of social and moral decay.
Do not fall prey to the libertarian efforts to remove God and traditional Americanism from our political decisions.
When a candidate tells you to drop opposition to social liberalism, then reject that politician.
I see lots of Christian-flavored hot air here.
You know the bible talks about a form of religion but denying its power.
Show me someone who actually walks the walk of small government better than Paul currently is. I say this to the shame of modern American Christendom.
A government that is big enough to spread moral decay is too big. Period!
I see it as well, people fighting for libertarianism and gay marriage, drugs etc, by pretending that it is the Christian thing to do, to NOT vote vote conservative and pro-life, and pro-marriage, and pro-conservative, because if you do, the claim is that somehow that is unChristian.
Evidently you can’t be a Christian, and be conservative, is the claim.
Cruz walks the walk to small government, Paul walks the walk to social liberalism, and large government.
socail conservatism, creates liberal voters, social conservatism creates conservative, small government voters.
Don’t hide a liberal agenda behind hot air, shouting GOD!! while fighting God and fighting conservatism.
If you want to change the laws promoting social decay, then you have to elect leaders who will, not one who tells you to give up that fight, erase that goal from your party, and who’s social liberalism will only lead to more big government.
Can you prove that Cruz outdoes Paul as far as government virtue is concerned? If you steal more but commit adultery less, does that make you better?
Until I see you quote something out of Cruz that shows red meat in reducing government, I will continue to treat him as a joke in that category compared to Paul. You have theory that you don’t even TRY to join together. You just make flat statements.
Yes but you go back to your 10 year fight for gay marriage, Paul came out with a position supporting gay marriage and social liberalism.
You have had this proven to you over and over, and you just keep going back to your same pro-gay marriage arguments.
The old Ted Kennedy defense, “I’m not personally anti-God, and for gay marriage, abortion, drugs, social decay and social liberalism but........I am going to fight conservatives and conservatism to my last breath”.
My ten year fight for gay marriage.
How about your 50 meter long Pinocchio nose??
(Which nose grew 5 meters with your last remark about me.)
You weren’t using the God angle yet, but you were already calling social conservatives, nanny staters, in fact that was the phrase you were obsessed with, as you promoted the radical and bizarre libertarian party.
