A Believing Remnant in America that is Still Truly Thankful
IFB ^ | 11/22/18

Posted on 11/22/2018 7:56:11 AM PST by The Ignorant Fisherman

My dear friends, in light of our nation's unthankfulness to Almighty God, godlessness, abounding moral relativistic thinking and secularism; there is still a remnant (Isa. 1:4-9) throughout this nation today that still chooses to follow Almighty God and knows His Son as their personal Savior as the Holy Scriptures so clearly teach (John 1:12). This remnant is truly thankful daily for all that Almighty God has provided for them (in time and in ETERNITY) and they are found throughout all the social classes today in America (1 Cor. 10:31).

The risen Christ's light shines forth through them and they shine as lights in an ever growing darker world, a world and a system which despises, abhors and hates ETERNAL light and RIGHTEOUSNESS more and more every day (Isa. 58:8, Prov. 4:18, Matt. 5:15-15, John 8:12, Eph. 5:8, 1 Thess. 5:5, Rev. 21:21-23). Tragically, these little lights today are America's outcasts, rejected and scoffed at by the political parties of today, Hollywood, the media, social media and by millions of this godless nation. UNTHANKFULNESS has engulfed our nation and it has taking its toll on our society and culture. Even is such a day and hour we have much my beloved to be thankful for to Almighty God, for His greatest promises are yet to be (1 John 3:1-3, Rev. 21-22:1-5)! Thanksgiving Day is the norm for the child of Almighty God who desires His perfect will for their lives and fully appreciates the Savior’s ETERNAL LOVE (Col. 3:16, Phil. 4:4, 1 Thes. 5:18).

Paul warned us what would be the climate of the Last Days and we are fully there as a nation and as a world.

As Paul stated; “This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth." (2 Tim. 3:1-7)

In the light of our day, may God's people always be thankful and understanding that this fallen world is not our home. That wondrous TRUTH in its self should cause us to rejoice greatly and to be ALWAYS thankful to our Heavenly Father!

The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!

It’s MORE than a “rennant”

Person need to take a pill, but besides that, beautiful article.

I’d say MANY more people than we think are good people

The secular and the insane are just the loudest.

I agree but that needs to change. The only way to handle a bully is confrontation!

"Remnant" is a common Biblical term. It shows up 89 times in my Bible. It refers to the faithful who remain at the end of days. It does not necessarily mean a small amount, which is how it is rendered in our English language. According to Strong's Bible Dictionary: שְׁאֵרִית še’êrîyṯ... a remainder or residual (surviving, final) portion: — that had escaped, be left, posterity, remain(-der), remnant, residue, rest.

Not saying there isn’t, I totally agree, but about being thankful to Almighty God in Spirit and Truth, that is a whole other animal this Thanksgiving.

I WILL say it’s the most DEVIANT the minority has even been!!

And honest, that we here don’t let ourselves be arrested day after day for blocking abortion clinics, well, either it’s wise because it would be pointless and risk the financial ruin of our families.

Or we are going to have to answer to God why we did not do everything in our power, and may be asked if some prison time was worse than being crucified :(
