God often lets man just hang himself. He said to preserve the Church, not the United States of America. Rome, Russia, France and many others thought that because they were “God's country” they would be preserved no matter wait.

We are mearly the latest to find out that you can not mock God and survive. We have turned our face from God, and have made a travesty of much that He gave this nation. We got to proud in our own selves, and have forgotten God.

Much like Christian Rome, we have returned to the pagan practices of old. Much like Christian France, we have flocked to men who tell us what our itching ears want to hear. Much like Christian Russia, we have trusted to much in our position as a bastion. Rome was destroyed by the barbarians, France by the Revolution, and Russia by the Communists. But a remnant remained.

I fear that we as a nation are about to be spit out. I am not worried about the Church, Christianity thrives in such times, but I fear for our nation. This new cult of selfishness and earth worship will end up destroying what is left of the West.

I agree with you 100%. I KNOW we are heading for judgement and it’s not gooing to be pretty. But He also says that if we pray and turn from our wicked ways, He will heal our land. It CAN be done. I just don’t know myself if it’s too late. M

Man, I’ve been thinking many similar thoughts the last few years. We are on the same page.

Excellent post. I agree completely.

I would add that seeing that our children are not safe in their mothers’ wombs, it is amazing that we, lucky enough to survive past birth, feel any measure of safety at all.
