Forgetting God

There are some in America who are trying to eliminate God from our society. They have banished him from the classrooms and they are trying to remove all traces of him from our government. The liberal educational institutions are so anxious to fill our children’s heads with knowledge about everything from A to Z but they are intentionally leaving God out of the curriculum. America has raised a generation of its children who have not been taught about God. In another generation, two thirds of our society will have been educated by a system that has banned God from its public classrooms. By then, a majority of Americans will have forgotten God and so, America will have forgotten God,

The Psalmist wrote, “The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.” (Psalms 9:17, KJV) The word used for hell is sheol, which means the world of the dead, or the grave. Will America die as a nation? Later, the Psalmist wrote, “Now consider this, ye that forget God, lest I tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver.” (Psalms 50:22, KJV) America is a divided nation and being torn to pieces by the various groups that are pushing their agendas and it seems there is none to help.

The one thing that could save America is to turn back to God. God told the Israelites, “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.” (2 Chronicles 7:14, KJV italics added) Christians, the ball is in your court now. It’s time to play offense. ONE NATION, UNDER GOD.

  1. Hi Jimmie -

    (Would you prefer to be addressed as Pastor?)

    Your words resound with truth, no doubt.

    GOD will let it be known in more ways - SOON that He alone is GOD.

    What comes to my mind are the ten virgins in Matthew 25. The wise virgins were ready and the foolish virgins were not.

    We know that GOD is not mocked...
