God's judgment has already settled upon America

Greed on Wall Street?

Greed in Manhattan was accompanied by greed throughout America, including the grassroots. This country has become enamored with the idol of money, supposed God-fearing Christians swept into that craze in too many instances.

Greed, otherwise known in Christian preaching as "materialism," swept our culture some time back until now the present generation has come to accept it as morally acceptable.

Christ told His disciples: "Take no thought for the morrow." In that same passage Christ challenged His followers to surrender everything to God, rely on no one but God, and let God govern their entire lives.

Instead, too many supposed biblical Christians have surrendered their trust to their mutual funds, their retirement savings, their huge houses, their luxurious lifestyles rather than living the frugal life under God.

How many Christians actually tithe to the House of God in order to keep the witness of Christianity strong and sterling? It is a very small percentage of believers who tithe faithfully.

Why is it that Christians cannot understand the biblical teaching of Malachi 3:8-10? It is an explicit command of God for those who follow Him to tithe for that one-tenth does not belong to human. It is God's tenth.

For the lack of obedience on that and other points Israel suffered severely.

It is not that God needs the tithe from believers. It is that God needs their obedience to tithe.

That same mode could be transferred to many other life areas in which churchgoers in America have said one thing and lived another.

Judgment has now come upon America's wallets because of this acceptance of widespread greed, not just in Manhattan but throughout our country.

Take that same lesson concerning money and relate it to holy living. How many biblical believers have compromised their lifestyles for worldliness rather than the separation from the world to live solely unto God?

Holiness as a lifestyle is rare.

"Born again" suffices in too many cases. The witness is: "I am born again. Therefore, I'm in the Kingdom and I'm okay before God." With that, too many then carve out a semi-Christian semi-worldly lifestyle that hopefully will be acceptable before heaven's throne.

God states in both Old and New Testaments: "Be holy even as I am holy." Being born again is not enough.. One must then mature in soul unto the life of holiness under God.

How many churchgoers watch movies that only the unsaved should watch? How many engage in verbiage that only the worldly should speak? How many slice through the holy day in order to "do their own thing" just as on the other six days of the week?

How many believers' homes are absent personal daily devotions, family Bible reading and prayer, Christian moral bases and faithfulness to the House of God on His holy day?

So it is that God's patience with America's religious profession has run out in many instances. Therefore, divine judgment has already come upon this land that sings "God bless America."

Now if B. Hussein Obama becomes President, watch out! God's judgment will level against this nation as never before for a mask Muslim will sit in the White House.

Obama represents deceit.

He has lied repeatedly and is lying at this moment concerning being "Christian" when in fact he slices through every Christian ethic. He cuts through God's revelation in order to satisfy his own opportunistic political aims. His wife joins him in that.

They both blaspheme the Word of God.

Obama will bring with him onto Pennsylvania Avenue an entourage of anti-white anti-Jew pro-Muslim disciples, that including Jeremiah Wright who has promised to follow B. Hussein into the Oval Office. Nation of Islam Louis Farakkan will be there in line with other Muslims in B. Hussein's Illinois political district where the NOI headquarters is located.

Obama will have in his choir the Muslim leaders of the globe.

Exodus 22:28 "Do not blaspheme God or curse the ruler of your people." (NIV)

Keep in mind that the ruler of our people in the US is the constitution....

The article was written before Obama was elected.

the article tells the truth , where is the curse ?? if any one is cursed, it is God ,by a constitution ,by a people by a country that has failed to live up to what they have declared they believe in , and that makes them all hypocrites ,

God Bless GT

Exodus 22:28 "Do not blaspheme God or curse the ruler of your people." (NIV)

Are you an American yourself or just another in the 'criticize because you don't have anything else to do' category?

There's no doubt that we are falling under Judgment. We have been for some time.

Mr 8:18

Having eyes, see you not? and having ears, hear you not? and do you not remember?

That said, there's but one hope.

2Ch 7:14

If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

We are in need of a revival and not one full of miracles because they are for the unbeliever. That will follow the first revival which is a return to the Lord;

Joe 2:12

[Matthitjah]

P.S.

Meanwhile a trusting in men and Government won't save us.

We will cry;

Jer 8:20

The harvest is past, the summer is ended, and we are not saved.

Some men trust in horses, some in chariots;

Ps 20:7

Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the LORD our God.

Peace,

Some of the things happening today were foretold thousands of years ago . . . does time cause truth to become irrelevant?

No, of course not. But now you're talking about Scripture and prophecy. This article is neither.

Why do you judge? That is God's bisnuss. Everyone is so judgmental why? It is a sin. God will do what is right. God loves everyone and he does not judge a country he judges each indvidual seperatly. So understand that it is not up to you to judge my country it is up to at Allmighty Lord.

God Bless!
