We have a Secular nation because the church is secular

 

We have a secular nation. One obsessed with sex, with self and with getting what they want when they want it.

This nation is all about do what feels good, you deserve it. Everyone owes you, you are good people. No effort required because it will just fall into your hands.

AND do you know why?

Because that is how the church in America is. It preaches God will accept you and you can stay in your sin and laziness. God loves you and you deserve to be rich healthy and wealthy. God loves you and delights in your sin.

Or the biggest of all God loves you, you don’t need to do a thing for Him after all you are special, He is lucky you even glance His way.

We have a secular nation because we have a secular church, because we have “Christians” who have no idea who Christ is.

God took the time to write a love letter to mankind, Took the time to devise a plan that man might come to Him again even though man sin, rebelled and ran from Him. God took the time to come to this earth, Live, Die, Teach, and put together a team that might pass down these things. He took the time to die, get buried, rise again, and (in the perfected state that we have to look forward to) further instruct His team how to proceed. Then He ascends to the Father but He is not done on earth, for He calls one Paul to be a missionary to further the Gospel, the first missionary is sent out.

And what do we do with all of that? We spend more time denying, finding reasons to twist and pervert the Scriptures. We spend more time looking for ways to get out of believing the “hard” stuff rather than seeing it for what it is – A plan of Salvation.

We treat it as a suggestion. To the Lost world absolutely this Bible is a suggestion, but to you True Child of God this is a life, not a suggestion. It is an order.

You receive Christ accept Him as your Lord, Savior, Master and Redeemer, you have a home in Heaven, you have an escape from the penalty of Sin. You have a pass from death and Hell and what do you think you need to do with that? Well, according to most today, nothing.

And that lie is pervasive in most churches today. That lie that you have no obligation is killing this nation and these churches.

God does not owe you a thing. You owe HIM everything. Yet we tell no one of this blessed Savior, this God who so loved the World. Instead we sit and stink and allow them to go to Hell in Droves.

And I truly believe it is because we do not believe in Hell anymore.

Personal and Individual accountability

 There comes a time when you look out at the beauty of Creation, when you see the immutable laws of Creation, when you see the constants of the seasons, and the sameness of the animals in their routines and rituals. The salmon swim upstream every single year with out fail. The birds migrate every year with out fail. The deer birth in the spring every single year.

There is an order to all the chaos going on in this world. And man in all of his glory and power can affect none of it.

Do you know what that tells me? That man is not the center central point of Creation.

Man is part of it, man is needed for it, but it is before us and will be here after us.

I am going to live and die and the animals, this earth spinning round, the sun the moon and the stars? They do not know me nor even care about my existence.

If Creation, if the universe, if the tree, the alligator, the mountains do not know me or of me or even care of me then what do I matter? What is the point of it all? The timeless (as far as we understand time) earth will carry on after I – we are gone.

So what/who is the point? I believe this is where evolutionists look out and see everything but can not fathom that they do not matter so they have discredited the Creator. How can they see what I see and say nope it is all chance? Happenstance?

If you live and die and are forgotten then what is the point of this earthly existence? If we are nothing, born lived, died and are nothing again then what is the point of this life?

If your purpose is to sustain this earth then that means the earth birthed you. But no Your Body came from 2 people who were living and not a part of the earth at that particular point. So the earth can not give human life it is only when 2 humans - a man and a woman come together that life is so ordered. How did that happen by chance?

The rising and setting of the sun, daily, for thousands of years is happenstance?

No the immutable laws of science speak to someone holding those laws in place.

The Tides in and out every morning and evening, the sun, the moon, the stars, the seasons, the sheer routine of the calendar points to something or Someone holding that order together.

Chaos has never created order, an explosion has never created anything outside of the comic books.

This means someone did Create, set in place and maintains all that happens. For if even one hair of the universe is out of place then it will all unravel. What keeps it in motion? In routine?

It has to be God. There is no other explanation for it.

Then that means God did Create, God did make, and God holds it all together.
