For Our Country
Our country
has lost its way. Over half the people
that vote, voted for a government that promises them things it cannot deliver
in return for their souls which it can, will and does take. Our foreign policy backs the rise of Islam,
we turn our backs on those who would follow God and arm those who murder
them. Pray God will raise up a leader
from among the people who can turn the country’s course 180° and attempt to
come back to God. Pray the people will
recognize that they are headed down a smooth wide road into the pit, a road
that will get smoother and smoother, steeper and steeper until the only
possible way is down. Down, into the depths
of the pit. Pray people will recognize
there is:
·
One True and Triune God who is goodness in and
of Himself;
·
All religions are not equal;
·
All ways of life are not equal;
·
The Bible holds the Key to Life;
·
All rights come from God, not the State;
·
Good;
·
Bad;
·
Evil;
·
Right;
·
Wrong;
·
Allah is the Devil;
·
Abortion is no more than sacrifice of children
to Baal.
Pray this
recognition will not come too late. Pray
we will, each of us, do our duty to God, Country and Family, putting His Honor
above all.
