I
was just reading in Deuteronomy chapter 4, and happened upon an admonition to
Israel beginning in verse 6. I found it
interesting, as I was reflecting on our most recent Presidential election, in
which the Great Pretender, the Man-Child, even that one Obozo the Clown, was
re-elected at a time when our nation is in the most dire straits I expect we
have ever faced. Please indulge me a
moment as I quote the passage that leapt out at me:
6- ... Surely this great nation
is a wise and understanding people.
7- For what nation is there so
great, who hath God so nigh unto them, as the Lord our God is in all things
that we call upon him for?
8- And what nation is there so
great that hath statutes and judgments so righteous as all this law, which I
set forth before you this day?
9-
Only take heed of thyself, and keep thy soul diligently, lest thou forget the
things which thine eyes have seen, and lest they depart from thy heart all the
days of thy life: but teach them thy sons, and thy son’s sons.
Methinks
we, as a nation, have NOT taken heed of ourselves. Thus, many of our people, especially the
younger generations (like mine; I’m in my mid-20’s), are lost to the random and
entirely selfish teachings of the world, rather than safe in the teachings of
God. This is why we are no longer a
Christian nation. This is why we are no
longer protected by the hand of the Lord in this country. Now other nations will have hold over us, as partially
indicated by the rise of UN interference in our sovereignty. Now the freedoms we have enjoyed in this
nation are going to be very openly trodden under foot by those who seek the
downfall of the country.
The
bridge is crossed; there is no going back.
Now we can either stand and watch it burn, or we, those still faithful
to God and His commandments, will have to band together and maintain our
dignity and our faith, never flinching in the eyes of the many adversaries
unwittingly united under the one great Adversary. But there’s something funny about life. You see, I peeked at the end of the book, and
there I saw that we, the faithful, will win.
