This country was founded on amazing ideals, and we can never be her enemy.
I too fear that the ruling class (meaning government employees) is going to cast people who still want to live their individual lives as enemies. They will do this even though everything in the foundation of this country was about ensuring the private sphere of the individual - to practice his faith, to own property and make a living, and to do whatever was necessary to support this project.
But the government has taken on a life of its own and is rumbling forward like Frankenstein’s monster. This makes me fear both for me and for my church, but I am trusting in God to show me what to do, hoping I am not like the hapless Jews in Germany who missed the warning signs.
Stop it. The ruling class may be those at the top of the government employee heap, but it is unfair of you to castigate all of them that way.
