As did her Israelite ancestors, the United States has for much of her existence found herself experiencing one major catastrophe after another. Periodic wars, disease epidemics, economic recessions, a depression, invasion, weather disasters, etc. have continually plagued this God-established, God-blessed nation. As a result of her insistence on sinning, presidents and other known figures have […]

God established the nation of Israel to be the light of the ancient heathen world. Her stated commission was to set an example of holiness for the Gentiles to see, embrace and follow in that God wants all men, including Gentiles, to be saved by becoming spiritual Israelites. As the Old Testament graphically reveals, God’s […]

Since her founding in 1776 the United States of America has, like her ancient Israelite ancestors, repeatedly obeyed and sinned herself into and out of God’s favor. The Old Testament chronicles the spiritual ins and outs of the Israelites as they repeatedly sinned themselves into insurmountable problems, then obeyed themselves back into God’s good graces. […]

The answer is “no.” The people of the United States, who profess to trust in Him and to be united under Him are beginning to learn a valuable lesson. Church-rich America is learning the hard way that religious business-as-usual does not produce help from on high. And she is not alone. In a recent survey, […]

In this modern, constantly evolving, God-rejecting, religion-saturated nation, sin is an accepted, “normal” aspect of “Christian life.” Sins such as adultery, homosexuality, drug use, religion-mixing, witchcraft and Scripture (God) rejection fail to raise so much as an eyebrow. Two episodes witnessed by people around the world prove that the United States, the “One Nation Under […]

In church circles, as in the world in general, the “new normal” is whatever makes people feel good about themselves at the moment. A few years from that moment another moment will arrive, bringing with it yet another “new normal.” As the student of the Scriptures knows, this process began shortly after the establishment of […]

In the social world, new results in improvement in the life of the people, even when the new is contrary to God’s Word, abortion being a prime example. In the spiritual world, new always results in death, the acceptance of homosexuality being a prime example. In society “normal” is constantly changing. In God’s world, “normal” […]

Spiritual change initiated by anyone other than God Himself is condemned. So says the Lord. Any change in man’s spiritual “walk” (life-1 Jn. 2:6) is “abnormal” in the eyes of the Almighty. Any change man makes in his spiritual “normal” is always self-serving and is therefore automatically deemed “good.” Any change that man deems “good” […]

The word “normal” in social life and interaction refers to words, beliefs, behaviors, possessions, private and group undertakings, etc. that normally exist under normal circumstances. “Normal” can be viewed as the standard by which normal man conducts his everyday normal life. The specific words, acts, possessions, etc. found within normality are called “norms.” For example, […]

In this closing post I want to further expose my righteous indignation by mentioning a few things that happen on a daily basis in the lives of people everywhere. People are born, people die. People rise, people fall. People become famous, people become infamous. People are venerated, people are executed. Most of us never do […]
