I disagree. Most “Christians” are simply to apathetic to care. God has always worked with a remnant.

Your reference to a "remnant" reminds us of this piece entitled, "Isaiah's Job," extracted from Albert Jay Nock's 1937, "Free Speech and Plain Language," Chapter 13, republished by FEE (Foundation for Economic Education).

America's Founders expressed in our Declaration of Independence, and throughout their writings and speeches, a "reliance on Divine Providence."

After decades of neglect, censorship, and outright attempts to obliterate their ideas of liberty from the minds of America's citizens by the enemies of freedom, technology suddenly has brought about a revival of those ideas. The movement known as the Tea Enough Already party groups is proof that the so-called "progressives'" 100+-year effort to impose a counterfeit set of ideas is encountering and engaging an informed "remnant" in defense of liberty.

Perhaps this Nock piece may serve to remind today's citizens of some things they need to consider, especially the implications of paragraphs five and seven.

The seedbed of ideas which produced the Declaration of Independence may yet yield its harvest, as it is kept alive in the minds of citizens.

When an elected band of ideologically-opposed officials begin to impose their will on the rights of conscience to the degree we see today, perhaps the enlightened "remnant" who have read and understand the Constitution's protections will articulate those protections to new generations.

“I disagree. Most “Christians” are simply to apathetic to care. God has always worked with a remnant.”

That and keep a close eye on the growing “global south” Christians, who are or will send missionaries to the west to do what the west did years ago to the global south, send missionaries to bring the good news of the Gospel of Jesus.

Rush Limbaugh might call these - low information Christians.
