The following is a short post from this past Noevember and I bring it back as a Lord's Day
post:
Should God, in His infinite wisdom and mercy, deem it fitting to move upon our
collective hearts once again... to convict us as to what we have become... to
open our eyes to the ideology that has bewitched much of our nation, there would
be no power on this earth that could stop it! The media could not hide nor
distort what would be happening. The academics in their ivory towers could do no
more than flail their arms. Hollywood would ply its trade to empty seats and
celebrities of any and all spheres would be ignored.
Left to
ourselves we cannot change the direction that our nation is going. Whether it
is the media or universities, legislatures or government bureaucracies, or
corporations or individuals....power in the wrong hands stifles
dissent, governs without accountability and generally bullies its way by using
that power... to retain that power. We are dealing with an uninformed and easily
distracted public. Greed and arrogance filled the void as reverence for God
receded. We are reaping what we have sown. Pulpits proclaim peace when there is
no peace. The cross of Christ is rarely preached. Truth is now but a variable.
Our Constitution has become a liability to what we demand as rights and the
Bible but a barnacle on our Ship of State.
God has stripped
us of our suit of armor but in His infinite wisdom we can now kneel and therein
is our true power! And as I have written often, should He refrain from
granting us mercy, it would be His will, perfect in every way, with all glory
being His forever and ever!
