Does any of you think that because the United States has rejected G*D and elected Obama that he has withdrawn his hand of protection on this country and that is why the hits are coming thick and fast now?

Yes, Obama is the antichrist no doubt and the END times are here. America could’ve saved itself with McCain, atleast he was a real american. Now we are going to be destroyed by secular intellectuals and commie thugs unless we don’t revert course.

Election 2012 November, Apocalypse 2012 December coincidence??

I think its worse than that. I think we elected God DESPITE the many blessings He gave us, despite the warnings HE gave us, despite His presence among us. We slapped God in the face (again) and God, like the just and wise Parent is stepping back for we the children to realize what s**t tastes like.

1 Samuel 10:19
And ye have this day rejected your God, who himself saved you out of all your adversities and your tribulations; and ye have said unto him, Nay, but set a king over us. Now therefore present yourselves before the LORD by your tribes, and by your thousands.

There are plenty other examples in the Old Testament, of the various tribes rejecting God.

My salvation is a personal decision not a national one. I have not rejected God, and won't. As for ME and MY HOUSE we will serve the Lord.

I think the reason we HAVE Obama is because we rejected God.

Really a tough call. I don't think what's happening is that obvious. I don't see Obama as a punishment but as a natural result of millions of moral choices by individuals. I do know this; Abortion is a heinous crime, and Obama is an extreme abortionist. We've accepted abortion, so Obama is a natural fit for such a country. He'll get Americans killed. He'll bankrupt the economy. But those effects are ancillary to why he came to be. I'm reading “Storm Warning”. It's an updated version of a book Billy Graham put out back in the 90’s interpreting current events relative to Revelation. I think Graham thinks we're in the time of the “Lies” at the end of time and he ties this to the “White horse”.

United States has rejected G*D and elected Obama

Yep. We're heading for a tribulation - the worst this country has ever seen.
Woe to those who call good evil, and evil good.

The 10 Commandments have been removed from the public square. The Doctrine of Demons (Political Correctness - the antitheses of the 10 commandments) has moved in to take their place.

"Blessed are those who read aloud or hear the words of this prophecy and observe the things written in it, for the appointed time is near. Comfort one another with these words." -- Revelation

Do you think the election of Obama and the rejection of God are one in the same? Do you think we'd have honored God by electing John McCain instead?

Do you think John McCain would have abandoned Israel? In a lot of ways, I don't think there would have been much difference. But as the days roll on, I don't think McCain would have drug us down the same gutter...sadly, he would have taken us into a slightly less socialist gutter...

I think if God had removed his hand you wouldn’t be asking people if they thought so.

America cried out for a king and they got one.

Not exactly.

Only a little over half the voters supported this guy and for a wide variety of reasons.

I think this is a very astute question. It's not very often that we think about or discuss the providential mission and responsibility of the United States. Was the US not founded by those seeking freedom to worship God? Did they not risk their lives to do so?

Look at what has become of this beautiful country. This is a country made up of people from all races, nations and cultures. It is a model for an ideal world. The heat for the "melting pot" was provided by love and respect and high ideals. But we live in a fallen world made up of fallen men and so our ideals are at risk of corruption. At present, it certainly seems that corruption is ascendant.

Has our nation turned away from God? Politicians conspire with wealthy and powerful to raid our treasury and tax the people. The culture is saturated with pornography. Homosexuality has more influence than Christianity once did. How did this happen?

I think the many scandals of past years opened the door for this to happen. Jim and Tammy, Jimmy Swaggert, pedophile priests etc. And don't forget our so called conservative republican leaders who got flushed because of scandal. That includes Newt Gingrich, Livingston and more.

How can God bless a nation that rejects high moral standards? Adultery and premarital sex are considered normal and in many cases celebrated. Where are the leaders calling for an end to this?

Frankly, I think 2012 is going to be a referendum of sorts, not just about Obama but about the moral direction of our country. I'm pretty sure that the leader who stands up for family values and moral standards will be the winner. I'm also certain that there will be phonies who will talk grandly about this but the genuine person will win the support of God and the people.

I believe that God’s hand of protection is still over the United States and Israel. When our President acts stupidly He pulls his had back a little and some evil comes our way. Arafat’s visits brought us a Hurricane and Nrothridge earthquake. There is a book out with 50 examples pulling his hand back. With the way our setting resident is acting we need to be prepared for more.

I think that this country was founded for one purpose and that is to enable the world to be prepared for the re-founding of the State of Isreal. And when we turn our back on and poke at the “Apple of G*D’s Eye” WATCH OUT....!!!

It's possible. We do know that it is God who sets up kings and deposes them, so it's clear he allowed Obama to be elected. Perhaps He has resigned the gluttons over to gorging at the trough of the treasury. Giving them what they want, which will, of course lead to their destruction. Unfortunately, they aren't the only ones that are going to suffer. But that isn't unusual in this world. I do have hope that, if we pray and work, He may yet extend mercy to us and revive our nation.

That's pretty much the way I see it, neighbor.

"The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with the work of Satan displayed in all kinds of counterfeit miracles, signs and wonders, and in every sort of evil that deceives those who are perishing. They perish because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie and so that all will be condemned who have not believed the truth but have delighted in wickedness" (2 Thess. 2:9-12).

Ezekiel 6:9

Then in the nations where they have been carried captive, those who escape will remember me—how I have been grieved by their adulterous hearts, which have turned away from me, and by their eyes, which have lusted after their idols. They will loathe themselves for the evil they have done and for all their detestable practices.

This is not the only reference in the Bible about Nations falling away. The Jews are the example and how many times have they failed?

I've said since November 2008 that I can't decide if Obama will bring GOD's wrath on our nation for turning its back on HIM, or whether Obama IS God's wrath for this nation turning its back on HIM. Ponder that.
