Individuals Must Repent and Trust Christ

How many of you believe a better leader will save this country, raise your hand?

If we had no leaders at all and every person loved the Lord, we wouldn't need to have laws. Sort of like the believer who has Christ living in Him, we have the Law Giver living in us, we don't want to sin, when we do we confess it to be further cleansed.

1 Timothy 1:8 "Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,"

The leaders are not going to make the people good, they can only oppress us because the people are evil while being lawless. So....God is sending us oppressive leaders to punish our lawlessness.

The only solution for our country is for the people, each individual to confess their sinfulness and trust what Christ did on the cross, while desiring to be changed into a new creation by Christ. Only He can save a man and only He can change a nation, but He will not do it against the will of the people.

God is a gentleman, He never forces anyone, they must choose Him and then He will work.

Trusting Christ on the part of the people is the only way God will work in this country. Placing godly leaders over a wicked people will not change anything.
