It isn’t
as though we are unfamiliar with
the concept of the speeding
train and the foolish driver who
believes that they can outrun
that train
across the
tracks; only to be crushed
beyond recognition. But when you
look at America, some Americans
are wondering if we are in a
similar race for our very own
existence. Of course any person
can point out some of the top
dangers to America, whether it’s
bio-terrorism, illegal
immigration or nuclear war. But
the maddening reality is that we
do not understand that WE are
our own worst enemies. Here are
a few examples that should make
us begin to wonder if we are the
largest group of lemmings to
commit collective suicide.
We want to
protect ourselves from the
onslaught of illegal immigrants
and yet we have created the
demand for cheap labor by having
cheap abortion which kills
millions of pre born Americans.
Additionally, millions of Baby
Boomers have looked forward to
their retirement and yet they
have promoted the aborting of
millions of children who could
have financially supported the
now failing social security
system. To add injury to insult,
many children who did survive
this abortion holocaust have
been taught by their parents
that it is
acceptable to get rid of pre
born babies if they are
expensive and inconvenient. This
widespread belief will make the
case in the future, that Mom and
Dad should also be euthanized if
they are the same kind of burden
to their children. In the
interest of not offending
anyone, the vast majority of
Pastors will not speak on the
issue of abortion from their
pulpits. Yet these same Pastors
will wonder why their churches
are not filled with the youthful
voices of children, who might
have brought the gospel to their
community.
We have
clearly patted ourselves on the
back for being so tolerant of
homosexuals, the co habitation
of heterosexuals and no fault
divorce; when all the while
destroying the very institution
that is meant to keep our
society stable; a godly
marriage. But in typical
hypocrisy we will continue to
pity the broken home and the
single parent family when we
ourselves have encouraged it to
continue by tolerating immoral
relationships. Public schools
are teaching promiscuity and
homosexuality and are trying to
figure out why so many young
people have STD’s and HIV. Even
Police officers across the land
will risk life and limb to
protect children from harm and
yet the
very same
officers will march in gay pride
parades which encourage
children
to participate in the
destructive lifestyle of
homosexuality.
We are so
rightfully concerned about the
environment, when the
environment of our soul is so
stagnant with hedonism, pride
and materialism. With this kind
of spiritual wasteland, we
simply cannot offer the spring
water of Christ to those who
need it. It also seems rather
strange that most
environmentalists are very
silent about our waterways being
filled with the waste water of
chemical abortifacient drugs
that are destroying the very
sexual makeup of ponds and
rivers.
They also
seem very silent on the
environment of the womb being
destroyed by abortion and
multiple sex partners. When will
they actually care about pre
born children as much as they
care about baby seals?
We invite people to come to our
country to become citizens and
yet we fall all over ourselves
to accommodate their culture and
their ways, instead of demanding
that they become real Americans.
We have somehow forgotten that
they have come to our country
because of the value of what we
are as a nation. We should never
replace that with the very
culture that people flee. To
make matters worse, we invite
the people of Islam who are
religiously bound to overthrow
the countries they live in,
whether by law or sword to come
to our beloved country, living
among us, giving sanctuary to
those who want to destroy us.
Remarkably we go all over the
world to teach countries about
representative government and
yet Americans are seldom
represented by their elected
officials. Their parties prop up
people that do not represent our
best and brightest, but rather
many wealthy, power hungry
elitists. Most parties play both
sides of the political fence
thus misrepresenting their own
party platform. Many of us are
still waiting for real statesmen
who fear God and obey His Word.
It would be refreshing to have
leaders who are not afraid to
utter the words, “As for me and
my house we will serve the Lord”
and “Blessed is the nation whose
God is the Lord”, and actually
mean it.
We had such great disdain for
being under the tyrants of
Britain and were willing to pay
the ultimate price to be free.
But now we cower before the
Federal government as though we
no longer were a land ‘for and
by the people’. States have
given up their constitutional
sovereignty and instead wait in
line to be blessed once again,
by the kings of Washington DC.
Our representatives are enamored
with taxes and spending without
restraint as they continue to
create departments and programs
outside of their God given
authority and outside of the
U.S. Constitution. Many times
law enforcement, government
leaders and judges punish the
righteous, while funding and
praising those who do evil.
The godly prophets are
considered fools and yet the
fools are proclaimed wise. The
profane is now called holy and
evil is called good. We are
certainly in trouble. Though I
am very worried about
bioterrorism, illegal
immigration and nuclear war; the
most frightful and troubling
thought is that we are not only
driving that car in a race with
the train, but most Americans
seem indifferent to the real
coming train wreck of America.
It appears that few are trying
to stop and consider whether it
worth losing such a race; but
then again, we might either
offend someone or be accused of
being hateful. But shouldn’t we
be recapturing what it means to
really love God, our neighbor
and even ourselves?
