No matter how much biblical scholars try to find America in the Bible, it is not there. Why can’t we find America, the most powerful nation up-to-date in world history and prophecies? The reason we can’t find it is because God has laid the foundation of America but allowed us to choose our own destiny. Of course he knows what America will choose but he did not want to influence us by telling us the future, so we would not use it as an excuse to not fight evil.
Just like God gave Noah the blueprint to build the ark, He gave the blueprint to our founding fathers to build America. Noah still had to build the ark just as the American people had to build America based on God’s blueprint – and they had. But unlike the days of Noah, the wicked in Noah’s days didn’t try to destroy the ark, whereas the wicked in America have been trying to destroy the foundation of this country piece by piece for decades. Since 1954 the Christian leaders have totally allowed this to happen, they stopped protecting the ark of America.
Just as Noah’s Ark was self-sufficient so was America for a period of time. By the church not engaging in political life at the direction of their leaders, the church stood silent as America lost self-sufficiency.
How is America like Noah’s Ark?
All of us remember from childhood Sunday school classes, our teachers explaining how God instructed Noah to build an ark and fill it with every kind of animal from all over the world. The self sufficient ark would save Noah, his family and all the creatures of the world who entered from God’s great judgment. Through Noah’s obedience to God, despite the criticism he faced daily from the rest of the world, his family and creatures from all over the world were saved
Like Noah, Trump is rebuilding the self-sufficient ark of America. Although he is mocked, ridiculed, and hated, he is bringing back manufacturing, bringing back our soldiers, building the wall, reestablishing God‘s laws, protecting religious freedoms, and fighting evil.
Yet, unlike Noah, Trump stands almost alone. Noah had his family helping him build the ark. As a born-again Christian, president Trump’s family, his brothers and sisters in Christ, are failing to take a stand with our President. Our leaders are choosing mammon over God’s Word. Church leaders all over America fear jeopardizing their 501(c)(3) status and therefore refuse to publicly stand with President Trump as he follows God’s blueprint for America. Worse yet, our leaders refuse to publicly stand with Trump even though he signed an executive order that the Johnson amendment will not be enforced. Instead, they stand silently, cautiously guarding their non-profit status (their mammon) while the enemies of God are tearing this country to pieces.
Since 1954, when the Johnson Amendment was put in place, the American church abandoned its mission to stand for God, and fight evil. Instead, they chose mammon over God and to obey the laws of men instead of God. They have been teaching false doctrine and misleading their flocks. Many have even encouraged and empowered the enemies of God by voting for the Democratic party — a party whose platform aligns with everything God is against as He tells us in Galatians 6:1-10. Far too many of our church leaders have been teaching and embracing the lies and false doctrines of Satan in their congregations.
One demonic doctrine, a pre-tribulation rapture, has resulted in a lukewarm and apathetic believers, convincing them to abandon our fight today’s explosion of evil by believing they will not be here for the worst of it.
Was the church taken from this world during the 100 years of socialism and communism, when over 100 million people were killed and hundreds of millions of people were oppressed and enslaved? What about Christians currently persecuted and executed across continents in today’s world? What about the first church, the disciples of Christ who were persecuted and executed for their bold teaching of the gospel regardless that the government of the day made it illegal? Are we above the first Church? Above all the martyrs that came before us? Is God going to spare us from great tribulation even though he didn’t spare those before us? Even the Israelites were present during God’s judgment on Egypt. They were protected from His wrath but not spared from exile, wilderness, discipline and death.
What Christian leaders allowed
By embracing separation of church and state and tightly grasping hold of their non-profit status, our leaders have allowed God to be pushed out of our laws, our politics and every public aspect of our lives. The church has allowed prayer and Bible reading to be removed from schools, they allowed the murder of unborn children, the change of God’s marital covenant and the passing of laws that limit, attack, ban and punish biblical influence.
The Lord has an issue with the American church and its leaders. The church has become lukewarm and if the it does not turn away from its evil ways, he will spit it out. But there is still time. There is still time to turn back to Him, and repent.
There are two big events coming up this weekend, The Return and DC Prayer March. These events will not be successful in their advertised goal, of repentance and prayer, unless the leaders will publicly repent as according to 1 Timothy 5:20. The events are calling for repentance but have not spelled out exactly from what sins we need to repent. Pastors, leaders and their congregations cannot repent from sins when they do not know what they are, when they are not named. Without knowing from what to repent, and without publicly repenting, these two events will do nothing but bring glory to their organizers and promoters, selling more books and getting more exposure, and raising more money from donors.
Actor Jim Caviezel, who played Jesus in Passion of the Christ, has called today’s Christian leaders, bishops and pastors “collaborators and Judases”. Is he right? Is it possible that our church leaders will not publicly repent from clinging to mammon because it would expose that they played a major role in bringing America to what it is today? Have our Christian leaders become a type of royalty where they will protect each other, not call each other for their sins and failures?
This is a call for Church leaders in America to repent for choosing mammon over God by following the Johnson amendment and withdrawing from political and public life not to lose their tax exempt status (Matthew 6:24).
They also need to repent for failing to tell their congregations, according to biblical standards, specifically for whom they should vote for and for whom they should not vote. Telling congregants to vote “biblical principles” is not enough.
Far too many believe they are voting biblical principals by voting for the Democratic party. Deceived into believing the platform of the Democratic party — giving to the poor, helping minorities — they conclude they are voting biblical principals when voting for Democrats.
My people perish for lack of knowledge according to Hosea 4:6-12! Like the leaders in Ezekiel 22:26 and Malachi 2:7-9, church leaders have failed their congregations. The result is that Satan through the Democratic Party has taken over every aspect of America’s public and political life, in education, government, entertainment, justice system, social media, judicial system, healthcare, even in churches.
Instead of leading their congregations like the first church leaders spoken of in Acts 5:28-29, today’s church leaders have chosen to do the exact opposite of the first church by choosing to obey government instead of God. In direct opposition to God’s command in Hebrews 10:25 and Colossians 3:16, they have closed their doors at the direction of government and they accept the worship restrictions at the call of the government. There are now restrictions on church services, gatherings, corporate worship, corporate praise and even singing!
But those of in these congregations are not without blame. We have chosen to follow the direction of our leaders instead of the Bible. By failing to directly apply Scripture to current events, public and political life, we have strengthened the hands of evil doers and allowed America to become like Sodom and Gomorrah as God warned in Jeremiah 23:14.
God has laid the foundation of this country in our Constitution, where he gave His people power to have Him front and center of every aspect of human life. Christian leaders, mainly pastors, have allowed Satan to dismantle almost every aspect of what God has founded brick by brick by withdrawing from every aspect of public and political life and by not educating His people. They have allowed God to be removed from our society.
“When I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or command locusts to devour the land or send a PLAGUE among my people, 14 if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and TURN FROM THEIR WICKED WAYS, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.” 2 Chronicles 7:13 & 14.
It is time to repent and turn from our wicked way, Today.
