If a Nation So Blessed by God Should Turn Away from Him, What Then?

~
“Genesis 12:3 3I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you
I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you.”
New International Version
~
“And America has done much good. And there’s no shortage of nations far exceeding any of its faults or sins. But no nation in the modern world has ever been given so much. None has been so blessed. To whom much is given, much is required. If a nation so blessed by God should turn away from Him, what then? It’s blessing will be replaced with curses? Yes. And has America turned away from God? I asked. It has turned and is turning. How? In the same way Israel turned. It started with a spiritual complacency, then spiritual confusion, then the merging of God with idols and then, ultimately, the rejection of his ways. Just as with ancient Israel, America began ruling God out of its life, turning, step by step, against His ways, at first subtly and then more and more brazenly.
As God was expunged from American life, idols came in to fill the void; idols of sensuality, idols of greed, of money, of success, comfort, materialism, pleasure, sexual immorality, self-worship, self-obsession. The sacred increasingly disappeared, and the profane took its place.”

A Tolerance for Everything Opposed to God

“Some would call it tolerance, I said. “Yes.”, he replied, “the same tolerance that overtook ancient Israel … a tolerance for everything opposed to God, a growing tolerance for immorality and a growing intolerance for the pure – a tolerance that mocked, marginalized and condemned those who remained faithful to the values now being discarded. Innocence was ridiculed and virtue was vilified. Children were taught of sexual immorality in public schools while the Word of God was banned. It was a tolerance that put the profane on public display and removed Nativity scenes from public sight … contraband, as if somehow they had become a threat-a strangely intolerant tolerance.” “But still”, I countered, “how does all that compare to what happened in ancient Israel? America doesn’t offer its children on altars of sacrifice?” “Does it not?”, he said. “Ten years after removing prayer and Scripture from its public schools, the nation legalized the killing of its unborn.””

Virologists Knew: It’s Engineered

“Every virologist in the world knew that the coronavirus was engineered. All you have to do is look at the genome. Everybody knew that and they kept silent for a year, and here’s how. He gives away $7.6 billion a year. That’s two to three times what [Bill] Gates gives away. Him and Gates work tandemly. They partner up on everything. They talk together a couple times a week.

They are business partners … in 2000, in Gates’ library, the two of them got together and they formally formed a partnership. You take those two and one other guy — Jeremey Farrar — who is their other de facto partner who is the head of the Wellcome Trust, which is the U.K. version of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. Between those three men, they control 61% of the biomedical research funding on Earth.

So if you want to get your study funded, you’ve got to go to those guys. Not only can they give you the money, but they also can kill a study because they control all of the other funding sources. They can kill a study, they can ruin a career, they can bankrupt colleges who do science that they don’t want done. So they are able to really dictate virtually all the science on the globe.”

A Government Telling, We, the People How to Live?

How Long Will Justice Be Crucified & Truth Buried?

“How long will justice be crucified and truth buried?”
“How long? Not long! I came to say to you, this afternoon, however difficult the moment, however frustrating the hour, it will not be long because “truth crushed to earth will rise again”. How long? Not long, because “no lie can live forever”. How long? Not long, because “you shall reap what you sow”. How long? Not long, because the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice.”

We Cannot Let This Election Be Stolen!

“We cannot let this election be stolen – we need to be loud, bold, and persistent. We need to contact the legislators in Nevada, Arizona, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Georgia. We need to contact them all and let them feel the heat. These Republican legislators are afraid of the Democrats, afraid of the mob. But it’s not Democrats who put them in office. It’s Republicans and just as Republican voters put them into office, they can kick them right back out again.”

When Definers Become Undefined

#ThankYouRavi
“While, theoretically, a person may block God out, logically there will be a breakdown
because, ultimately, all enunciation implies a moral doctrine of some kind. And if that moral doctrine is not absolute,
then the definer himself becomes undefined. That’s what we are living with – an undefined definer
giving us definitions for our course, and we are being trapped in the quicksand of the absence of objective truth.”
