It seems every day brings more and more dismal news. The riots across the nation, violence in schools, and the senseless shootings in Charleston, all seemed to crescendo with the tragic decisions of the Supreme Court last week. It makes a person hesitant to even get out of bed in the morning. The final nail in the coffin for me was the rainbow White House. Taking the very symbol of the promise God gave his children and using it to announce to the world—and proclaim to God Himself, “We reject you!” was just too much for my heart to take. It is a tragic representation of the times in which we find ourselves.

“The abomination that causes desolation.”
Have we just seen it?
If you don’t fight back, the left will keep pushing. The only reason conservatives haven’t been sent to reeducation camps is because of that silly second amendment.
Time for some group to come to the forefront and do something. The TEA Party is useless outside of local elections.
Someone whose intellect I respect is Mark Steyn. He’s just done a piece comparing what’s going on here with events in Germany in 1933 — only THIS TIME it won’t JUST BE THE JEWS!
I’ve been trying to hammer this one home for over a year!
THIS IS A MUST READ!!!

America is so screwed.
There may not be hope for the US government but there is hope for the American people. There is life outside of politics. People have thrived in despotic regimes in spite of their corrupt governments and so shall we.
The one and only hope for this nation is not us, it’s the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Changed hearts will change the nation.
Yes, we need to pray for nation;wide Repentance & Revival. In case you haven’t heard it before now, God himself promises in The Good Book, 2Chronicles 7:14 “if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.” It’s worked before, why can’t it work now? The secular stuff isn’t doing it for us.
Exactly! What we have is a spiritual problem manifested politically, morally, economically, etc. Christ is the only hope, not conservative politicians, not even the Constitution.
AMEN!
No, there is no hope for America or any other nation as that is not what the gospel is about.
Mathew 24
35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away
When Americans were told that mothers had the right to murder their unborn children and those Americans did not burn Washington to the ground, any objective person looking from the outside would be forced to conclude that America was not a Christian country and subject to the rule of atheist tyrants posing as judges. In the face of evil, we do nothing of consequence but expect some form of divine exoneration.
When the Jews were forced into captivity, I don’t recall a parting of the good from bad on the way to Babylon. No one was spared though I’m sure some were outspoken about the nation’s sins. I would not be surprised to learn that it was God who first said “talk is cheap.”
We live in tragic times and it is going to get worse before it gets better.
