I am very sad about the direction our society has gone in the past 100 years.
The bible, and God, used to be integrated into every aspect of our nation, and that is what made us the greatest nation in the world. Our national striving for Godlyness.
As I talked about in my last post, we as a society have drifted away from our Godly roots into hedonism and Immorality. Evidence of this is rampant in our government, culture, and in buisness.
Many of our government leaders are corrupt, evil men. Just do a search for Billy Tozen, or culture of corruption. The evidence is overwhelming. Read about the "oversight" of the $700B bailout.
Our culture has continually regressed to the point that, today, movies, tv, and music are all infected with grevious sin and immorality. I have since given up watching tv, movies, and listening to modern music, because it all is truly filth.
Our buisness leaders lie and in their greed, defraud millions of Americans, and get away with it every time.
I believe that we, as a nation, have strayed from our path, and The United States of America will be punished, if efforts are not swiftly made to return God and the Bible back to where they belong.
I am not confident this will happen, but all hope is not lost.
William Tyndale was an english scholar, and the first man to ever print the New Testament in the English language. Once he translated the bible, he strove for the rest of his life teaching the English people the bible, and making it available to the comman man. In 1536, as he was being burnt at the stake, he uttered his last words, "Lord open the king of England's eyes"
3 years later, the king of england published Henry the 8th's english translation of the bible.
I pray daily that God Allmighty will open the eyes of Americans, our Leaders, and Barak Obama especially, that they would turn to HIM for guidance, see the great evil growing daily in our nation, and take steps against it.
We still have nothing to fear. Even if our country falls, and is destroyed, God IS and will still be the God of his people. He will make a way for them. He loves us, and will give us our reward.
God and the Bible, and the morality, and lifestyle taught by them were the glue that held our society together. The principles found in the bible, from God, and the american people's will to follow them, even to a small extent, is what made this the greatest country in the world.
When the bible, was removed from our schools, the basic morality from god, that is necessary for our country to function, was removed. Without morter, a house will crumble and fall. It is the same as with our country and the word of God.
just Tim and Me. And I check, and so does Tim! I totally agree with you; you said it better than I ever could! I've been praying fervently for America recently. I miss you! Have a good Thanksgiving!
We as a people need to remember what this country was founded on.
This country was formed, as a safe haven for those who loved god, and wanted to worship him without danger.
Our constitution was formed with godly principles in hand,
although many of our forefathers were not the most moral of all men, they did know that god exists, and that a countries greatness is in its' closeness to God.
George Washington said paraphrased, it is impossible to rightly rule a nation without the bible.
for hundreds of years this was understood, but in the early part of this century, people with no love for god, or desire to do his will, set out to gain power, and remove the bible, and god, from every aspect of our great country.
This movement has been largly successful, and still exists today.
this has been disasterous to our nation and our people. Our Morality, Culture, and now Economy, are all in dire peril, and no one in washington knows what needs to be done.
we dont need bailouts for our economy, or new laws in place.
we as a people need to return to our roots, and return god and the bible to their rightful place in our lives, and in our society. Until this is done, I see no way that we can truly progress as a nation.
historically, as great nations fell, their morality would first degrade. Then their culture, economic power, and military power all colapse.
I fear that we are well on our way, as a nation, to collapse, and unless we can restore our morality, this great nation, founded on biblical principles, will diminish to nothing.
We have government officials stealing from the american people, ceos stealing money and defrauding millions of workers.
in the old days, this would be condemned immediately.
but in our "highly advanced" society, nothing is done.
all that is said now, is there are no laws against it, so we can't do anything about it.
Lord please have mercy on those few faithful who still call on your name. Do not judge us for the great evil that our peers practice daily. Have mercy on us as a people, and put it into our leaders hearts and minds to do your will. I pray through Jesus AMEN
