A Nation that has Forgotten God

I just hate it when I see a picture of a man depicting Christ wrapped in an American flag. First, we know that man is not a picture of Christ but sends the message that he is, and that He favors America.

The only nation God favors is Israel!!!!!

How anyone can believe God would favor America with all the rot and rebellion occurring here is beyond me.

 
I desire to be a good citizen of the country I live in, but that does not mean I think it is above all nations or that we can "do no wrong."

The believer must be more concerned about the gospel to individuals than saving a nation that has thrown God out of everything while promoting widespread paganism.

Psalm 9:17, "The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God".

Just Saying!

No One Knows the Day or the Hour of the Rapture

It is biblically incorrect to predict a particular day for the rapture because of what God tells us in His Word.

Matthew 24:36 "No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father."

Also, remember this: if someone predicts a day in the United States, it will be another day in Tokyo; if we are on Tuesday in the United States, Tokyo is on Wednesday.

And, Rosh Hashanah, celebrated in Israel, is celebrated on two days, not one. So to say the rapture will be on a particular day is not possible.

 
It is best to obey God, read His Word, and believe Him. He said, "no one will know the day or the hour", simple!

My New Mantra, "I Don't Believe That!"

It is nonsense to repeat "theories" we have no way of proving. Repeating what others say when we read something we cannot prove is a choice to accept their words.

 
If we cannot do anything about what is happening, we can't prove that it is true, and it makes no difference in our lives, it is foolish to repeat it to anyone else.

And, don't go looking for things to watch that do not glorify God or impart His principles that help others grow in holiness.

 
When the internet first came into homes, most Christians knew it was full of foolishness. Sadly, now many are falling into deception and repeating what they see and read, causing anxiety that is not warranted. I have adopted a new mantra for myself: "I don't believe that" when it comes to internet news.

 
Philippians 4:8 "
Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, think about these things."
