Dear American friends, if this 4th of July George Washington, John Adams, Benjamin Rush and the rest of our Founding Fathers were to come back from the grave, they would rebuke and testify against America for her national departure from Almighty God, the laws of nature and of nature's God and our founding principles, The most astounding thing would be upon their return would be that the majority of American’s would NOT have an ear to hear them and would fully reject them outright. It is true that we live in another type of day today; one that abounds with technological wonders; but the moral principles which they prescribed for our nation at its founding NEVER go out of date.
It is true that we live in another type of day today; one that abounds with technological wonders; but the moral principles which they prescribed for our nation at its founding NEVER go out of date.
We as a nation are too far gone morally to restore this nation and the majority of Americans do not have an ear to hear the moral and social conservatism which our founders stood for and believed.
Many TRUE conservatives are scared and truly frightened to death about what lies ahead for our once-great nation. 2020 is just ahead and we have no guarantees that President Trump will win in 2020. Americans are trapped in a subjective worldview without any ETERNAL or Heavenly objective perspective, which is based on Almighty God and His infallible Word. My dear friend, fear not about what is at hand for our doomed nation and the current overwhelming crises of this temporal fallen world, for all these things MUST come to pass as the Lord Jesus said (Matt. 24).
Put NOT your trust in any man or woman in these final hours.
Dear friends, put NOT your trust in any man or woman in these days, even President Trump, conservative elected officials nor those in the conservative talk radio voices of the right; for they are oblivious to the ETERNAL realities and only present a fallen subjective worldview for their base and listeners (Psalm 118:8, 146:3-5, Jer. 17:5, 1 John 2:17). May we always be doing our part for our nation, but never trusting in it in such days. May our focus and strength come ONLY from Almighty God and from His precious promises which are for us in His Holy Word (Rom. 8:28-39, 2 Cor. 1:20). From Heaven's ETERNAL perspective, the future is always bright!
The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand, my beloved! May your trust be in the Lord of hosts alone and may this ETERNAL perspective and reality be seen ever clearer as we head forth to that very hour which all men fear (Rev. 6-19).
DJP I.F.

Why is it so surprising to Christians to see the decline and fall of this nation, and them not understand the very scriptures they claim as the foundation of their beliefs... oh, right... they tout the Bible, claim their Christianity, but have not read the book that explains in excruciating detail what shall befall this world - America included - at the 'end of the age'.
A couple of comments:
To Fletch.
Fletch the problem with modern American Christianity is the monetization of the teachings of Christ. Most people follow the words of those who have turned the Lord's teachings into a vehicle for generating cash. God's words are taken out of context, misquoted, and misapplied to suit personal agendas. If we were all properly educated as to God's plan, we would all recognize that America would become a nation of apostates. But that is not the case, most modern "christians" follow the teachings of men and not Christ. They would know to expect the bulk of our population and our leaders would mock God as their counterparts throughout history have done. Eventually, they all pay a price for their hubris. Our job as Christians is to give aid and support to our own who will serve as the remnant. We will all be pilgrims in an unholy land.
Fisherman,
America doesn't reject God or our Founding Fathers. There are those who have seized power, and these are the ones who reject our heritage. Take heart, we have done as God has planned. We remain faithful. As Christians we have done what Christ has instructed us to do. Love one another. Our love of our fellow man has been taken for weakness. Our generosity has been abused as the guests in the Lord's house, and make no mistake - this country is God's House and we have enjoyed untold blessings while dwelling here, have raided the larder and pillaged the garden He gave to us. But, His patience wears thin, and I am sure He will soon name Champions among us.
Adams was raised a Congregationalist, but ultimately rejected many fundamental doctrines of conventional Christianity, such as the Trinity and the divinity of Jesus, becoming a Unitarian. In his youth, Adams' father urged him to become a minister, but Adams refused, considering the practice of law to be a more noble calling. Although he once referred to himself as a "church going animal," Adams' view of religion overall was rather ambivalent: He recognized the abuses, large and small, that religious belief lends itself to, but he also believed that religion could be a force for good in individual lives and in society at large. His extensive reading (especially in the classics), led him to believe that this view applied not only to Christianity, but to all religions.
Adams was aware of (and wary of) the risks, such as persecution of minorities and the temptation to wage holy wars, that an established religion poses. Nonetheless, he believed that religion, by uniting and morally guiding the people, had a role in public life.
The question before the human race is, whether the God of nature shall govern the world by his own laws, or whether priests and kings shall rule it by fictitious miracles?
-- John Adams, letter to Thomas Jefferson, June 20, 1815
The United States of America have exhibited, perhaps, the first example of governments erected on the simple principles of nature; and if men are now sufficiently enlightened to disabuse themselves of artifice, imposture, hypocrisy, and superstition, they will consider this event as an era in their history. Although the detail of the formation of the American governments is at present little known or regarded either in Europe or in America, it may hereafter become an object of curiosity. It will never be pretended that any persons employed in that service had interviews with the gods, or were in any degree under the influence of Heaven, more than those at work upon ships or houses, or laboring in merchandise or agriculture; it will forever be acknowledged that these governments were contrived merely by the use of reason and the senses.
-- John Adams, "A Defence of the Constitutions of Government of the United States of America" (1787-88), from Adrienne Koch, ed, The American Enlightenment: The Shaping of the American Experiment and a Free Society (1965) p. 258, quoted from Ed and Michael Buckner, "Quotations that Support the Separation of State and Church"
You truly are ignorant.
"As the government of the United States is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion; as it has in itself no character of enmity against the laws, religion or tranquility of Musselmen [Muslims] ... it is declared ... that no pretext arising from religious opinion shall ever product an interruption of the harmony existing between the two countries....
"The United States is not a Christian nation any more than it is a Jewish or a Mohammedan nation."
-- Treaty of Tripoli (1797), carried unanimously by the Senate and signed into law by John Adams (the original language is by Joel Barlow, US Consul)
Anonymous is exactly right. There are many religious run states in the world that are good examples of what life is like in these nations. You're not accepted if you are not of their faith. The state is run by some dogma that is "god given". Hooey!! In the United States,the more we keep religion out of government the freer all relegions will be. The irony. Get god off our money,out of the original Pledge of Allegiance,off government lands,ect.Bring in a moment of silence instead of christian prayer in all local,state and federal gatherings the better for all of us.Fundalmentalists are crying that secularists are destroying the country,when in fact the fundalmentalist are ripping the fabric of all our rights since the Articles of Confederacy was written.The Great Founding Fathers started and struggled against the fundalmentalists who already had State religions[soon abolisted them] to bring about a "Separation of Church and State".The heroes of today are pushing back these same absolutists;most being non-religious thinkers,the biggest difference-to think.Everyone sees the fundalmental Islamists of today murdering and destroying in the name of "Truth".The "Truth of Facts" will destroy all religious fundalmentalisms and let all beliefs have their "right of belief" only if they do not infringe on other believers and non-believers.
The same reason most are easily led astray and deceived because most professing christians are biblically illiterate. Most go to church on Sunday morning and that is the extent of their service. Most churches have a Sunday morning service but the ones with a Sunday night service are rare anymore and their midweek services are spotty most of the time but yet every Sunday they do not fail to fill up the professional sports stadiums. So we wonder why our country is in such sad shape but all one has to do is look at the history of Israel to see what the results are when a nation chooses to serve the god of this world verses the GOD that gave us salvation and yet the people of this country still will wonder why things just continue degrade. When you look at this world through the worldly glasses none of what we see going on throughout the world makes sense but look at the world through our biblical glasses and it makes perfect sense.
It is known as biblical illiteracy.
Psalms 9:17The nations that forget GOD shall be turned into hell.Daniel 2:21 And he (GOD) changeth the times and the seasons:HE removes kings and sets up kings.ISIAH 46 9-10 for I am GOD and there is none other I am GOD and there is NONE like ME 10 Declaring the end from the beginning and from ancient times the things that are not yet done saying,My counsel shall stand and I will do all my pleasure. Then verse 11 ends with I have purposed it and I will do it.
So we see that according to the verses above GOD is sovereign over all the world and HE controls all of it to bring about his end BUT GOD also calls on his followers to tell the nonbelievers the consequences of not following GOD'S plan for their life then each person has to make that decision for themselves but each person should realize that their decision has eternal consequences and whether one wants to believe it or not there is a real heaven and a real hell where each and everyone will spend an eternity.
