If this is what you truly believe about God, then you are hopelessly lost. If this is what the majority of the military believes, then the military is lost. If this is what our Country has begun to believe, then we as a nation are lost.

I’ve seen comments and thoughts exactly like yours in more than one place and they seem fairly common among most of the current generation of people in the service. I am afraid that Fred Phelps may be our modern day Balaam when he says the things that he does.

There’s no doubt that Phelps is a false prophet, but what if what he’s saying in this instance is true? What if we’re under a curse because we, as a nation, turned our backs on the truth? I’ve heard other, well respected, preachers saying the same things; saying that God has turned away from us and is turning us over to judgment for our sins. What if this is true? I have no doubt that individually we haven’t been abandoned, but I wonder if Psalms 9:17 isn’t being put into action on a national scale. After all, we’re not Israel and we don’t have the promise of survival if we turn our backs on Him.

Thoughts?

Nothing profound, just that you may be right.
