The Nation

10/24/2016

When you look at what’s happening in our nation right now, you should consider that the United States has been a very, very special country and this era in history in this country as very unique in a very good way. I know that’s a lot of “very.” It is “very” though. Most of the history of the world, true believers have not been free. In much of world history, people period have not been free. America is judged in a different way than other nations have been, held by a different standard. It’s too bad really, because things have been very good here, and that doesn’t seem to be acknowledged any more. As we go into this presidential election and the nation looks like it does, we should be thankful for the freedom we’ve had. One of the reasons we can judge things to be bad is because there is actually a standard of bad and good that comes because of the Bible, and its influence on the country. We have been able to meet freely to worship God. That has been expected for so long. We can say that we are against certain sin, preach against it, and that has been acceptable. We have been able to preach the gospel, so that everyone can hear it and has the opportunity to believe. Christians have less freedoms than they have for a long time, and I suspect it will get worse and maybe fast, but let’s be thankful for what we have had and what we have in this country.
