"In his book on St. Francis, G. K. Chesterton puts forth the argument that the Dark Ages, after the fall of Rome, were a time of prayer and fasting. He claims the West needed to adopt a monastic lifestyle to drive out the demons of the fallen pagan culture; nature worship of pagan Rome lead to many things unnatural."

This is needed today. Good old fashion fasting and prayer with witnessing. The neo pagan is here. He and she are back. Just look at occultic shop" readings " . I seen two more on a major roadway down here. When we once had the Gospel then this again it is worse then when Romans ruled. Why ? Because then they never heard of Christ until he came the first time. But now we already heard of Christ then as a nation we went to the eastern "gods" also now old paganism rewapped packaging. I have met people when I talk openly they can get very mad. I find out later they are heavily into the occult. Who hates Christ the most. The enemy of our souls. He blinds these people. He is angry thus they are angry to justify their own hate.

We as a nation that had a standard with God will pay heavily. Do you remember when we took God out of the schools with prayer? That year we had the Cuban missile crisis. We almost blew up the world. Kennedy let it out to the public. When that happen we all prayed by the millions upon millions. I remember my mother with a publication for pray came every month. It had I think ten million subscribers. Besides our separate brethren praying but even that did not take away the assassination of John Kennedy the next year then Robert Kennedy and Martin Luther. The sixties. If we remember good is supposed to come out of death like the martyrs but did we heed the lesson like we should of done? Maybe for a time but no. We systematically let God be taken out of public life slowly. Now we got this nation of now.

We need to say real heartfelt prayers not cheap hollow prayers. He is coming soon. He told us will I find faith? He knew the good news would be preached then to the end. So if it is preached does not mean accepted by all but just heard by all. We live in a info and fast traveling world as the prophet Daniel told us the end of time would be this period of history. It is as obvious as the nose on our faces we are here. Let's say our true heart felt contrition prayers with witnessing. Praise Jesus! So be it/Amen!!
