Musing – Is America Being Deliberately De-Christianized?

 

Hebraic Musing – Is America Being Deliberately De-Christianized?

First published March 2019 (B.C., Before Covid 19)  Over a year ago the attack was already clear!)

We are seeing cases of attacks on the Christian religion and foundation of our nation.  Todd Starnes’ book “God Less America”* was written in the middle of Barack Obama’s second term; and the author names names! 

Where are the attacks coming from?   Hint – Quote from Barack Obama speaking to Turkey “We do not consider ourselves a Christian nation.” (p.3)  And note that Turkey once was a Christian nation, but clearly is no longer.  Relevant history:  Turkey, Syria, Iran & Iraq were once Christian strongholds; but the few Christians there today face severe persecution.  Europe seems to have passed the “tipping point”.  Could it be that Islam is being preached and practiced in America as a peaceful, tolerant religion, until it reaches a “tipping point”?

B.O. professed to be a Christian, but meanwhile he told the NY Times the Muslim call to prayer was “one of the prettiest sounds on Earth.”  And in about 2007 he also claimed “…religious Americans care only about issues like abortion, gay marriage, school prayer and intelligent design”  And he encouraged divisiveness when he said on CBS News “But somehow, somewhere along the way, faith stopped being used to bring us together and faith started being used to drive us apart.”(p.7)

The “Swamp” now has entrails into the IRS, FBI, CIA, Justice System, Courtrooms, and Countless examples!  Just one classic example – IRS attacks on Christian organizations with audits and 501c3 application delays.

In 2013 American Pastor Saeed Abedini was convicted by Iran and imprisoned.  The administration did nothing to facilitate his release despite many dealings with Iran.  (Interesting, he was released Jan.16, 2016)

Militant LGBTQ movements are supported by infiltration into our Justice system and the military’s “Social Experiment.” (Prophetically I just received a text warning about a movie/play to be released called “Corpus Christi” depicting Jesus and the Apostles as gay men living in modern-day Texas. [Wikipedia])

  This is doubly interesting since the Quran and Arab nations have severe penalties for such behavior.  As America goes that route, will it be easier for Arab nations to view America as worthy of Jihad?

“One member of the military was written up for having his Bible out, while a Muslim was allowed to publicly display his prayer rug”  (p.258)    The FBI was purging its anti-terrorism documents of any material deemed “offensive” to Muslims. (p.163)   Children’s textbooks are being made Islam friendly; to get their hearts!?!?

What should we do?  What can we do?  We need to stand up, and speak out, and trust the LORD.   “When I say to the wicked, 'O wicked man, you will surely die,' and you do not speak out to dissuade him from his ways, that wicked man will die for his sin, and I will hold you accountable for his blood. BUT if you do warn the wicked man to turn from his ways and he does not do so, he will die for his sin, but you will have saved yourself.” Ezek. 33:8-9 NIV   And a Feb.27 FOX news report on Christian persecution concluded with “When will we realize that the threat of religious persecution isn’t as “far away from home” as we may think? We need to take a stand and be vocal proponents of our rights, starting today.”

Now we know how David felt when he wrote “Those who hate me without reason outnumber the hairs of my head; many are my enemies without cause, those who seek to destroy me.” Ps 69:4  NIV

Did Jesus see America’s end-time future when he said this?   “All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.  He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left.” Matt 25:32-33

Points to ponder

How did Barack Obama get elected for a second term?
Why didn’t Americans realized the Judeo-Christian foundations were already crumbling?

Does the U.S. Constitution really say “separation of church and state”?

What’s changed in the last year and a half?

♫ Onward, Christian soldiers, marching as to war,  With the cross of Jesus going on before!
     Christ, the royal Master, leads against the foe; Forward into battle, see his banner go!. ♫
