jv_coach Posted November 21, 2014 Report Posted November 21, 2014 What makes America America? What distinguishes this country from the nations of the world--or from world history, for that matter? Even casual historians must admit that there has never been a country like the United States of America ever to exist. This nation is unique to world history. There has never been a country like this--and probably will never be one like it again. As hard as it is for the anti-God types to admit, America has a deeply-rooted Christian history and culture. However, when one says, “America is a Christian country,†(usually spoken by a Christian, of course), he or she may mean something that NEVER existed. So, let’s set the record straight: America was never founded as a theocracy. And even though there are some well-meaning, albeit naïve, Christian people today who pretend that America once had, and should have again, a theocratic-type government and society, the fact is, America was NEVER a theocracy.......... http://chuckbaldwinlive.com/Articles/tabid/109/ID/2262/How-Christians-And-Conservatives-Are-Helping-To-Destroy-America.aspx .........The assault against the United States is massive. We are fast losing our Christian heritage and culture--and Christians are as much to blame as anyone. They have tried to turn the Lord’s Church into a playground or entertainment center--or even worse, a corporation. Phariseeism is rampant. As a result, unbelievers have lost all respect for churches in general. I, for one, don’t blame them. We have lost our understanding of, and appreciation for, Natural Law. Even most pastors cannot articulate the fundamental principles of Natural Law, even though this is the Law upon which America was founded. This means, we have lost the true meaning of America’s Declaration of Independence and Bill of Rights. We cheer as our country has turned into a “Warfare State.†We applaud as our nation has turned into an Orwellian surveillance society. We are losing our common language, our common history and heritage, and our common faith. Christianity in 2014-15 is not even comparable to Christianity in 1775-76. We have traded Jonas Clark for Joel Osteen. Yes, the very people who claim to love America the most and who claim to be interested in her blessing and prosperity are too often the very ones who are helping to destroy her. Quote
