Watching the destruction on America, being caused by our worldly leaders, is disturbing. The methods they are instilling into our way of life have been proven wrong through out history. Moving our society to a socialist agenda is also moving us away from God. But since our leaders do not know Jesus, as a majority of our founding fathers did, the constitution seems foolish and they choose to ignore it.
God has been removed from our schools and an entire generation has grown up not knowing the ways of God. Also the family has been destroyed with welfare / Government taking the place of the bread winner in the family. With no father in many homes, the moral compass has disappeared. God states that the father is the teacher of God in the family, so many today don't have God in their lives and have followed the world down a slippery slope to destruction. The recent decisions in our court system over homosexual marriage, abortion, individual rights has continued the decline greatly.
So what are we to do? Hopefully you have made the decision to follow Jesus and devote your life to serving Him and leading others to His Kingdom. If you have, you have hope and are not discouraged. You also understand that this entire world belongs to Jesus, not just our own state or country. So with Him in charge we are safe in His hands even though trials will continue to come our way. With that said we need to be diligent to His word and the teachings of it. So many "confessing Christians" I meet are VERY ignorant of the word of God. They are believing in false teachings and doctrines which will take them to a wide, crowded gate to judgement. We must know our Bibles and correct them in a loving, caring way.
The best way to learn God's word is to read it daily. Start at Genesis and read all the way through Revelation. You will see that God's word is a complete story of redemption. Redemption through His Son, Jesus Christ. If you read an hour each day, you will complete the Bible four times per year. The more you read, the more the Holy Spirit will reveal to you. And by studying the Bible, you will notice a false teaching when you see / hear it. I recommend reading 2 Timothy chapter 3, then begin at the beginning and continue on reading for the remainder of your earthly life.
Know the truth, teach the truth, spread the truth. Remember it is a simple faith which God has given to you. A gift which you can never repay, but one that will determine where you spend eternity.
