Why else would we be in turmoil and nothing seems to get corrected ?
When they forsook God and relied on their own devices (you want a king ... OK ... I'll GIVE you a king ... and various et cetera's) ... they cried out and wailed to HIM to no avail until they realized ... they had turned away from HIM and had ignored His men.
Freerepublic exists because we are de facto apostate and until we realize that and 2 CHRON 7:14 ... Freerepublic has a job and a purpose
I've never seen a thread like what I'm posting now, so maybe ... this can be His wake-up call to the Christians HERE
Is this actually NEWS? Or a vanity?
I saw/heard a message by Tony Evans 2 days ago, that said the exact same thing.
The people were no longer satisfied to have God rule over them. They wanted a king like everybody else.
In time government took the place of God. People look to government to take care of every ill, instead of looking to God. As the society becomes more and more secular, the faster it falls farther a way. And thus the more and more corrupt society is.
Doesn’t everyone think that God loves them best?
See post #24 on that thread...
It's NEWS if it's new to you
It's a vanity if you interpret the invasion of a formerly God honoring land by the haters of God as a passing thought and a trivial matter
Otherwise ... it just might be an earth shattering call to revival and we can rise up against the foe
America isn't in the Bible (IMO), but the scriptures are given for us to be instructed ... let's pretend we CAN read ... DO read ... understand ... and ACT on what we know
Pretty much like the first dozen or so chapters of Isaiah.
The kingdom of Judah had no idea the deportation to Babylon was going to come, even though Isaiah would prophesy that later in the book.
If God did not spare His own people, how can we think we will be treated differently?
I noticed at the last conservative convention that Cruz was the only one who mentioned the name of Jesus Christ, he did so at least three times in that one speech, but I think more like six times, I watched the whole show and intermittently missed a few minutes here and there, so someone else may have done so but I didn’t hear it.
God's love is not selective ... there is no best ... just His love.
Of course ... if you don't know His love, you might speak to yourself in those kinds of words and then throw them out to see if anyway else is in a simular demise
Does anyone have a link to video or the text of Bobby Jindal’s recent speech at American Family Association?
I can only find excerpted quotes, and would like the whole thing (for context, you know).
Even back then I could see the children and women ruling over us ... God discovering the secret parts of women ... the walking with tinkling ... the mighty men removed from the secular and religious scene ... I saw it all ... and became frightened to the point of enlisting in His army
God forgive me I've been AWOL too many times
He forgave me too, a long, long time ago.
True to His Word, He never has left me nor forsaken me.
Old things have passed away, behold, He makes all things new.

It was always my view that God and America were on the same page.
Looking at America now, and the deviant cultural path it has taken, I no longer hold that view. I increasingly see God and America on opposite ends of the spectrum.
Where there is a lack of GRACE there is a lack of goodness. The void is filled by sin. Where there is SIN there is suffering and death.
Well, THAT IS GOOD NEWS ... because it means Jesus is coming soon to set up his one-world government over this nation and the other nations in the world. The WORSE IT GETS, the better I like it ... :-) ...
Honest Christians would agree with you.
The day we kicked God out of the classroom was the day our demise began. Abortion followed, homosexual “rights” after that, pornography, and every vile sin imaginable is being spewed out of this sewage pit called the “USA”.
Now we have a muzzie president in a twist of irony after 9/11 who hates Israel (the apple of God’s eye) and despises Christians.
God has given us over. No doubt about it. It will end horribly. You can’t as a nation EVER escape the genocide of murdering over 60 million of your most innocent among you and expect a HOLY GOD to forgive you and heal your land until justice is served.
We as a nation are screwed. I’m convinced of it....flame away................
