Believers in Jesus Christ First and Americans Second!
IFB ^ | 8/24/21

Posted on 08/24/2021 6:27:37 AM PDT by The Ignorant Fisherman

Beloved in Jesus; we are to be believers in Jesus Christ first and Americans second; for in doing the first, we will fulfill the second rightly in time! When this Divine order is kept in Almighty God's will, America will prosper physically, mentally, and spiritually as NEVER before! I personally believe that our nation was not spared in 2016 to "Make America Great Again" by obtaining and keeping our national sovereignty, economic growth, and prosperity; but for Almighty God's people to diligently and prayerfully get out Almighty God's saving message to all of Adam's race before the coming Day of the Lord (John 3:16-17, Rom. 5:11-21)!

Again, by faith in Jesus, we need to fully redeem the little time which remains and is given to us as never before; for the Rapture Trumpet blast is at hand and the Day of the Lord at the door (John 14:3, 1 Cor. 15:51-58, Eph. 5:16-17, 1 Thess. 4:13-18; 5:1-11; 1 John 3:1-3, Rev. 6-19)! We as His blood bought believers and anointed ones (Christians) need to go forth - in ALL meekness, in ALL genuine sincerity of love and GREAT joy; and share the ETERNAL saving grace and ETERNAL Gospel of Jesus Christ with all boldness and POWER in the Spirit of Truth (Eph. 5:15-16)! It was the prayers of this nation's saints to Almighty God that has spared this nation thus far (Dan. 4:17) and it should be the desire of all these praying saints that a GREAT spiritual revival and turning to Almighty God in Spirit and TRUTH occur before the Day of the Lord arrives! God speed for Almighty God's glory!

The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!

As much as I might agree, I think now is a terrible time for an “America Second” message.

Americans have enjoyed a long history of viewing themselves as followers of Christ, foremost. But, that is because they were secure, as Americans.

How about Jesus first rather than just fellow believers first. We are not called to put our neighbors second just because they are not believers. The Shepard leaves the 99 and goes after the lost one.

I think 2016 happened to restore America’s Free Constitutional Republic so that America can be used by God in these last days as a platform to “earnestly contend for the faith that was once delivered to the saints” (Jude 3) and thus ignite the true Gospel of the Grace of Christ (lost over the years to counter-scriptural mixture of law and grace) in God’s merciful and final worldwide sweep of souls before that great and terrible day (Luke 14:23).

In doing so, hearts must abandon trusting in man and turn to trusting in the Hand of the Divine Providence of God Almighty.

“The Shepard leaves the 99 and goes after the lost one.”

Always rubs me the wrong way when the tone is giddy (”yeah we’re out of here...”). The proper tone/spirit should be the one Desmond Doss had i.e “Please let me get one more”.

Yes indeed; that has to be our reality and focus not just a “religious experience” etc.

Trump to me was elected to absolutely expose the American Left and he did but yet people did not wake up; really our last call; and now with destroying Biden; we see our final fate. Not enough time to save America.
Maranatha!

This is the order God has given us; we can do our part but in rejecting this order for decades we have become a Canaanites nation.

Keep the order and watch what God will do..

If you have the time; read Jeremiah; God puts it in the right perspectives and the parallels are very similar

It’s always correct to put everything second to Jesus. If the country is saved, it will be because He allows it.

Yes, Trump did expose the Left, but hearts are still trusting in man instead of God. I believe God is working to change that.

Satan’s time is not yet. The world MUST be swept for the last great incoming of souls before that great and terrible day that is just around the corner (Luke 14:23). God raised up America for this purpose and will use America in this last worldwide incoming of souls.

More below...

Many, are confused by these the attacks of Satan facilitated by the Left which is run by the spirit of antichrist.

What we are seeing is previews of coming attractions, but Satan’s time is not yet. I believe the reason for all this trouble is we are about to see a merciful and loving sweep of God’s Spirit bringing souls around the world to Jesus before that great and terrible day (Luke 14:23).

Similar to what happened before God’s great deliverance of Israel from Egypt and before the birth of Christ, Satan created much havoc and death because he was trying to stop what God was about to do. And amazingly, many confuse Satan’s wrath with God’s. But God is now in the business of reconciling the world to himself NOT imputing there trespasses to them (2 Cor. 5:19). God LOVES the world, and is not mad at the world (John 3:16).

Meanwhile, Satan can never stop God’s purposes. While God moves quietly but relentlessly as with Christ’s birth, Satan makes a lot of noise and wreaks havoc, but in the end, these are all exercises in futility.

The belief in America is a belief in something that no longer exists.
The Federal government and the police state is the biggest threat to the American people.

Jeramiah has many things we can learn from. But remember, Jeremiah is under the Old Covenant of the law. We are under the New Covenant of grace. We must read God’s Word rightly dividing the Old and New Covenant (2 Timothy 2:15).

What “God...”
Lol... it people like you that are the problem; clueless and a fool... no offence..

Wake up to the biblical reality; under God means nothing when we are under His Divine judgments.

To use that term one must use it in its right context not just generally...

If you use a shot gun to brush your teeth you’re using your shotgun wrongly... the same with Almighty God.

No offence friend... think it through.. thank Almighty Gid someone challenged me 30 years ago... or I would still be out to lunch at a closed diner.
