God verses the State

It seems that as Patriotic Americans, we see the need for individualism and independence. Yet the Bible says “if anyone desires to come after Me, he must deny himself” (Mat 16:24), which seems to contradict our thinking. It even seems to be more in line with the progressive line of thinking of “for the good off all”. The Bible tells us to give to the poor, and so do the progressives. But here’s the explanation. In denying ourselves, God wants us to depend on Him – not the state. In giving to the poor, The Lord wants us to open our hearts and give to the poor, again, not the state. The reason God will one day fight against the state is because the state is trying to take His place – to be God. The progressives believe in a man-made Utopia. But God says that Utopia will only come with the return of His son. Our founding fathers understood this, and wrote the constitution, which reflects this belief. Think about it, the more power we give to the state, the more corrupt our nation becomes. It is the state, our own government who
• Kicked God our of our schools, Bible and Prayer

• Made it a “right” to murder our own children in the womb

• Made it legal to steal from one class who works and give to another class who will not work.

• Who is forcing us to teach our children that homosexuality is an acceptable lifestyle and even promoting it in our public schools.

What is happening in our government today is not only constitutially illegal; it also flies in the face of God’s plan for our lives.

Let us take back our constitutional rights, gaining back our individualism and independence, and then give that back to our maker, which will result in our generosity to meet the needs of all people.

  1. Thanks for tackling a hard issue. As Christains and good citizens we have to lean on the teachings of the Bible and our Constitution. If we know each of them, we will not be pulled down a false path.
