We need to let the foresight of the Bible inform us of our world view, lest we admire or become too affectioned for the world.
Our understanding of the last days, and our posturing with them, must be developed from God’s Word alone. Otherwise, we may be attracted to the “stones” that construct our society, rather than the forces that will cast them down.
Our beloved country, once stalwart and strong, is now reeling with wounds, bruises, and putrefying corruption, from the sole of the foot even to the head. We desperately need the power of the Great Physician, which can only come by way of repentance and putting away the evil of our doings.
Our country was never totally spiritually whole, but it was never sin sick as it is today. There is little sound left, if any, of the breathing of morally fresh air, or the beating of a God fearing heart. “In God We Trust” is hardly the confidence of the many, but still regarded by an ever diminishing few.
It has been said:
*Solving our national debt will not solve our national problem.
*Solving our high unemployment rate will not solve our national problem.
*Solving the health insurance woes of the millions will not solve our national problem.
*Solving the poverty issues of the needy will not solve our national problem.
*Solving our foreign policy will not solve our national problem.
*Solving our immigration challenges will not solve our national problem.
Yes, these are all critically important issues that must be undertaken diligently. But these are effects, not the cause, of our national crisis. These all testify to the fact that we have not only left God out of the equation, but we as a nation have multiplied our sins against Him, unto our own confusion and corruption.
As a society, we must reverse our move away from God, restore our values unto the principles of His Word, seeking God’s forgiveness, mercy and grace, looking unto Jesus as Savior and Lord.
Apart from this, our nation will just be swallowed up in the spirit of anti-Christ, with nothing but tribulation, anguish, indignation, and wrath in store.
