As America
Turns Against God. The United States Supreme Court ruled that the 10
Commandment could only be displayed as a non-religious display.
That the motives must be clearly secular, and did not cross the line into
impermissible proselytizing. "A purpose to favor one faith over another, or
adherence to religion generally, clashes with the understanding that liberty
and social stability demand a tolerance that respects the religious views of
all citizens," The people of today and also many Christians, are of the mind
to be more tollarant of social order, social change and social tolerance.
Many are asking ministers to be silent toward social issues that are in
direct contrast to the words of God. Many are saying that Christianity is
the main cause for hatred around the world. They say its causing division,
war and terrorism. The Pharisees and scribes, laid, law upon law, upon the
people not ad hearing to them themselves. A Nation without God and Jesus as
the head of the Church is a Nation bound for destruction. Many are calling
for the display of the 10 Commandments not to be in sight of Children, so it
wouldn't influence them. Prayer has been removed from our schools,
Children's Books on, accepting Gays and Lesbians are being introduced to our
children in libraries. Anti-Christian organizations are in the news
constantly, rejecting any form of recognition of Jesus Christ as Lord, all
in the name of, common unity, liberty, social stability and Separation of
Church and State. The government can now take all that a man has worked for
all his life, tear it down and build a shopping mall, where a family used to
praise God. Anti-Christian religions are invited to build in our country and
everyone thinks that these things are all-right. Lets read a little
scripture. Act 26:16 But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have appeared
unto thee for this purpose, to make thee a minister and a witness both of
these things which thou hast seen, and of those things in the which I will
appear unto thee;
Acts 26:18 To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and
from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins,
and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me. ”To
open their eyes. To turn them from darkness to light. To turn them from the
power of Satan unto God.” Our work as ministers of God has been made a
little more difficult but never impossible. The eyes of many are blind to
the truth, they refuse to come into the light of knowledge, the light of
justice for all men, and they refuse to turn away from the foundations of
Satan, to come to the healing Power of God. The words, ”God Bless America.”
are slowly fading away, being replaced by, the words, “Separation an Unity.”
Mat 23:15 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass
sea and land to make one proselyte [Religious conversion, the adoption of
new religious beliefs that differ from the convert's previous beliefs] and
when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.
But when any government turns its back on God and turns people to the
opposite, ”A tolerance that respects the religious views of all citizens,”
isn't that also impermissible proselytizing for satan? If a nation is not
for God, it is against God. There is no middle ground the same as of
Salvation. Luke 21:15-17 For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all
your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist. And ye shall be
betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and some
of you shall they cause to be put to death. Isa 43:7-11; Even every one that
is called by my name: for I have created him for my glory, I have formed
him; yea, I have made him.
Bring forth the blind people that have eyes, and the deaf that have ears.
Let all the nations be gathered together, and let the people be assembled:
who among them can declare this, and shew us former things? let them bring
forth their witnesses, that they may be justified: or let them hear, and
say, It is truth.
Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that
ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was
no God formed, neither shall there be after me. I, even I, am the LORD; and
beside me there is no saviour. No other God, none before nor any after. If
the people actually believed that, then there would be no reason to, command
laws unjustly, condemning the worship of God The Father, freely, no reason
to hide His words from the children, no reason to try to teach religious
tolerance, nor sexual tolerance for many that are outside the will of God,
no reason to remove Gods word from any building. Acts 13:10 And said, O full
of all subtilty and all mischief, thou child of the devil, thou enemy of all
righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?
Nations should be calling out,”Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief.”
{And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake.} [Ref;Phi_1:28;
1Th_3:3, 1Th_3:4; 2Th_1:5]
