Secular societies now are doing better than theocracies ever did.

And yet, as we me make our transition from one nation under God to that of leftist secular enlightenment, the corruption, violence, general disrespect of fellow citizens and destruction of our society escalates.



Spot on, Ray.

Although America began as a Christian nation, we are seeing unparalleled apostasy (falling away of the Truth) and spiritual delusion in the world. 2 Thess 2:3

There is growing deception and the world is in rebellion to God. We are seeing literal moral degeneration of man.
2 Tim 3:1-15

All this, just as the Bible said, imagine that. And yes, the scoffers and mockers will be along shortly, just as the Bible said, to mock and scoff.

Scoffers and mockers will continue to reject the Word of God and the WARNINGS that are coming on the judgment of the world. 2 Peter 3:3-8



Amen Whitetail. It's all just a means to and end.

2 Corinthians
3 And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing. 4 The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.

It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.
