America is in a difficult time.  But all national difficulties are designed to help us (or “force” us) to seek God.  We simply must face something we don’t like to face:  As the Bible says it:

“…whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.” (Galatians 6:7)

Judgment and The Remnant 1We are reaping the judgment of God because of our many idols:  The worst being the god of immorality and our sacrifice to it—the murder of our own children by abortion.  God warned the nation of Israel that one of the judgments He would send would be “pestilence” (Jeremiah 29:17).  This virus is one of those “pestilences”.  As Founding Father, George Mason, warned us at the Constitutional Convention:

“…Providence [(God)] punishes national sins with national calamities.”

But God’s aim is redemptive:  He just wants us to quit “buzzing” and listen to Him!

So I want to encourage you with some of the promises which God gives to us in the Bible.  These promises are made to a specific group of people which the Bible calls “The Remnant”.  While the phrase, “The Remnant”, has specific references to the Jews, it also is a reference to a specific group of true believers in Christ.  This is how I’m referring to it today.  The “Remnant” is not made up of your average church-goer, and certainly does not include those of religions outside of Christianity.  Neither does it include those who nominally believe that Jesus is God’s Son.  It doesn’t Continue reading →

Is it wrong for a Governor of a state to stop others from crossing from another state?  Is it wrong for a Governor to stop church meetings; to fine them or imprison them if they do?  Was it wrong for a Pastor in Florida to be arrested for having his church  meet?  The answer lies in first answering the question of:  What is socialism and how does it operate?

Socialism is an economic system which is based on the belief that government should own or control the tools of production (i.e. government should control business).  Thus, to implement this plan, socialists must control government so they can use its power to force everyone to work their economic system.  They enforce their control by:

  • Taxation: A business owner must buy a license and register his business with the government.
  • A traveler must have a permit (a license) to travel.
  • A school must have a certification from a central agency (like an Accreditation Association). If the socialists control that Accreditation Association, it guarantees that their socialism will be taught to the next generation because a teacher must have a certification from that Accreditation Association.
  • A physician must have the permission of government to practice; He must have a government worker’s approval to treat a patient in a certain locality; to prescribe a certain hospital or a certain medicine (FDA) for his patient.

All this government control means there must be Continue reading →

I haven’t seen this much fear in people since the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962.  Everywhere people are concerned for the life of loved ones, as well as for their own life.  It would appear God has come calling.  He warns us:

“Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.  For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.” (Galatians 6:7-8)

Many voices for many years have spoken to us prophetic warnings that God would not put up with us murdering our children through abortion; as well as allowing sodomy to exist without punishment:  Not to mention the idolatry of sports and other pleasures we’ve embraced as normal.  Prophetic warnings about our lust for material things has fallen, for the most part, on deaf ears.  Are we now “reaping” what we’ve “sown”?  Time will tell.

And while we may not Continue reading →
