Let's Face It WE Lost America from feb 2 2014

"Let's Face It WE Lost America"

---

It wasn’t the GOP, it wasn’t conservatives, it was the church that lost America. If we had been doing our job this nation would not have declined spiritually and it is that SPIRITUAL decline that has caused the social and political declines. Our problem was trying to solve the problem in the voting booth or on CNN or FOX NEWS instead of in the PEWS! WE blame the Hippies, the Left, satan, and a myriad of other causes but fail to recognize OUR part in it all.

 

We become complacent mistaking the nation and the church as on and the same and since the gates of hell cannot prevail against the church we assumed they could not prevail against America since she WAS the church. We allowed, in the late 19th century, satan to get into  the seminaries and into law schools and change how the bible was taught and how the constitution was interpreted and how laws were interpreted. Like Sgt. Schultz we saw “Nothing Nothing”. Then in the beginning of the 20th century we let satan gain control of schools with the creation of Government, “public”, schools. We said “Nothing Nothing”. We allowed evolution to be taught as fact in those schools thus eliminating creation. We did “Nothing Nothing”. We allowed the “finding” of separation of church and state being God’s removal from government influence. We did “Nothing Nothing”. Then finally they took out bible reading and prayer in those public schools. We were finally appalled. But by that time the enemy had 60+ years head start on us. I don’t think we really woke up till we saw the hippie counterculture wasn’t just a fad but was staying around and becoming a force to be reckoned with and when a “right to murder” was invented in the supreme court. We were, as the saying goes, “mad as hell”. Our answer – the moral majority. Yes we decided to fight this POLITICALLY. We felt that if we got the right politicians in to office we would reverse course and return America to the shores of glory. We have been trying that formula for 30+ years and rather than returning to the shores of glory we are further in the swamp of sin. Unfortunately we didn't quite realize the true reason for the decline – US! Like ancient Israel we went through all the motions but we weren’t close to God we had been drifting from him but we were blinded by America’s success to see it. Also like ancient Israel we didn’t respond correctly when small problems came our way so larger ones were sent. By the time we decided to respond we were facing a well entrenched foe. However all is possible with God. But rather than a national turn to God we sought help from man.  We thought this was a political and social problem and required a political and social solution. We has some success in the 80’ so we thought we were right in our assessment of the nature of the problem and the solution to it. But since we did not go to god on our knees and ask HIM to take care of the problem it returned with a vengeance! He allowed increasingly offensive things to happen to try and get us to turn to HIM for a solution to have HIM solve the problem.

 

But like bad gamblers we just “doubled down” on our belief in a political solution. Then came 9/11. For the first time in a while MANY went to church. We had a opportunity a great chance, after such horror, to bring the nation back to God. How Great of him to give us this after such disobedience and slacking off. But we did little more than off fluffy sermons and hold people saying “there there, there there”. We then sought to understand them enemy to find our “common ground” so we could appease satan, using his muslim followers, and thus make it so he wont hurt us any more. We now know the fate of America Just as the southern kingdom of Judah and the northern kingdom of Israel before it we too will face destruction. Some wont even admit that. “We have a better covenant than Israel so we can’t be destroyed” they say. The CHURCH has a better covenant but as we failed to learn the church is NOT America! America has NO covenant with God. The mayflower compact, some like to point to as a covenant, was MAN initiated NOT God initiated and there is NO record of God AGREEING to that compact/covenant. If he didn’t agree to it he is not bound by it. You can’t hold a person to the terms of a contract they didn’t sign. While we can not stop this from happening we can explain it to people and save as many as we can. 

 

Politics isn’t the answer. Social programs isn’t the answer. Being “purpose driven” isn't the answer. Chrislam certainly isn’t the answer. I doesn’t matter who the next president is or if we even have a next one what matters is are we right with God. No longer is it a question for the American church she WILL receive what is due her. It is however a question for each American Christian to ask. While I am sure this message is widely unpopular Jeremiah's message was as well when he told of the coming judgment on Judah. Unpopularity will not stop God from his business. Some say they have dreams of America Gloriously triumphing and being a beacon of Godliness in the soon future. Remember in Jeremiah's day they had dreams of imminent rescue But God told Jeremiah they cause themselves to have those dreams. People can cause themselves to dream pleasant and affirming dreams that they will attribute to God but Come from their own minds or worse from satan. Satan is a great faker he can appear as a angel of light and can give most convincing dream to those who wish to see what he wishes to show. He doesn’t always send negative bad dream to you he can send wonderful pleasant ones too. Even when the dream seems to glorify God when it doesn’t come true it detracts from God. Satan can quote scripture like a pro to try and justify his position so why would he not send a dream that on it’s surface glorifies God but he knows in the long run it will make God look bad to some listening to a description of it. You may not be who he is after it is someone who will read about or listen to you talk about you r dream that he is wanting to get you are simply a means of conveyance a way to get someone to doubt in God and look to satan no matter what name they call him.

 

Yes we are in the end times but that doesn’t excuse our lack of action. That it is the times we live in it NO excuse for dereliction of duty. Untill we admit OUR role in what has happened to this once great and Godly nation we can never expect to be able to help others understand how this nation fell from Grace and what is coming to America as a result of her heap of sins that stinks up to heaven. Let us seek a spiritual solution for our individual problems. We can’t save the nation but we can still make sure our election is sure. We can ensure there is a place saved for us in the New Jerusalem.
