It’s a big spiritual rot going on here.
We talk about frogs in kettles.
Well there’s an analogous situation going on. Satan’s working to slowly slowly slowly turn down the dimmer switch on the presence of divine light here.
And so we wonder how Mayberry RFD morphed into today’s rabid SWAT teams, and how we went from George Washington (or even Ronald Reagan) to a pampered, proud monarch.
That’s how.
WE CAN LIGHT THE LIGHTS AGAIN!! IT WILL TAKE LOVING AND GLORIFYING GOD TO START IT AND TO GIT-R-DONE!!!
But it won’t be easy to fight the ensuing battle. But if successful it will be so worth it, both on earth and in heaven.
You are so right!
