When I was a “young ‘un minister,” the lines between Christianity and humanism were much more defined. We had a much better grasp concerning what was sin and what was not. Now, the world has blurred so many of the lines, using such euphemistic words like “woke”, “openness” and “liberated.” But it is what it is — humanism. People are still killing babies…50 years after it was legalized...and the word still attached is “choice.”
Some might accuse the GOP candidates of feigning Christianity…but who really knows their hearts? Are we really that good at playing God? Some believe that they are. There is no feigning with the other crew’s leaders…most just flat out hate all things Christian…and the proof is in what they believe and they are unabashed and militant about it.
Here is the rest of the stat sheet. Our economy has been a disaster with incendiary inflation brought on by many poor economic decisions. Prices of groceries, homes and fuel have skyrocketed over the past three plus years. There is little to no growth in our system…mutual funds, retirement accounts…that by last count, were about breaking even (plus a little) over for this year, but still mediocre for nearly four years. The border is a sieve with absolutely no accountability as it relates to who or what enters this country unchecked…exceedingly unhealthy and dangerous. We have had anti-Semitic protests breaking out all over the country. They have tarnished the Liberty Bell and other monuments in our country. How did all these people get here? Is this going to get better? It is scary. We have (had) a system in place whereby people could enter our country legally…through appropriate and proper checks and balances, but that has long since exploded. I mean, it honestly seems like protecting our country from terrorists and others that would harm…and are currently harming…our society would be common sense, but common sense has checked out in the name of voters or what have you.
Our Commander in Chief presence in the world has been significantly diminished…and frankly has been generally terrible…due to awful decision-making, beginning with Afghanistan, and continuing on through the Ukraine/Russia debacle due in large part to the perception that we have had a weak president by the president of Russia, ruler of China, and which generally has been true. The current government has not only continued to placate Iran and other terrorist states, they have been enabled and emboldened and are now fighting their fight on our soil!
Many others…primarily the media…have been doing their typical best to sweep it all under a mighty large rug. Certain entities in government, including the current justice department, make it an incredibly unlevel playing field as it relates to all of the inside dealings…and they have all done their best to distance themselves from a Secret Service debacle the likes that has never been seen, but which is also incredibly suspicious and sketchy…and the truth will never be known, which is very unfortunate, but sadly the standard for such matters. It is all disheartening and disgusting.
People rail…including many Christians…against the concept of the U.S. being a “Christian nation.” They don’t like that moniker. Many just want to pacify all things. I understand it. And yet…how about an “anti-Christian nation”? That is the path we are already on. It’s time to wake up! We have never been an exclusively Christian nation, but this overflow of anti-Semites and anti-Christs into our country is alarming. Some may get the “open” country they want…only to find that it may be “closed” to what really matters to them. They may get the country that they want, but certainly not like the country that they get. I hope and pray that we make some better, Godly decisions in the upcoming months. If not, God could and will turn us over to the desires of the humanists’ hearts. “For our fight is not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, and against spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.” Ephesians 6:12
