Mr. Hambre: "We seem to have a believer with similar views among us. Just today, Lysimachus posted these words in the Bible Prophecy thread. I clicked it by mistake, honest."
Lysimachus writes:
God blessed America because it was founded on Christian principles (even though there were many unchristian principles intermingled). However, I want you to notice a trend. The more America begins to bring down the morals of this country, the more God's Holy Spirit will be withdrawn from this nation and will be less protected. As America continues to decline (i.e. by allowing gay marriages to finally take full sway nation wide), terrorism will begin to increase, and the security of this nation will begin to decline as far as providing the necessary security for this country. This nation will begin to rapidly decline, and it will be no longer a country of safety.
God is trying to tell America to wake up, but instead, are drifting away from moral principles. The more America drifts away from moral principles, the more you will see danger and insecurity increase.
Mr. Hambre: "So don't let anyone say that only rich televangelists can make ridiculous, homophobic, illogical pronouncements. The rank and file seem to be quite capable of doing so themselves."
Buzsaw: Though I agree with much about Dr. Falwell, there's a significant amount of him I do not buy, including his blame for 9/11 on the deviant lifestyles, et al.
Unlike Falwell, Lysimachus wisely places the blame on
America perse. God is not pleased with America for tolerating the deviant practices et al which according to his words he detests and loaths. We're all in this as a nation. We all allowed the morals of America to deterioriate. The majority of us have voted for the ones in power under who's watch the laws were made, amended and promoted. We Christians have been remiss in our duty to intercede in prayer and activism, et al. Falwell, don't blame the deviants from Biblical principles. We have failed to evangelize them with the truth and the gospel. Our poultry, eggs and dairy products are loaded with female hormones to fatten and raise production to satisfy our greed for money and convenience. There is evidence showing that this is a factor in homosexual tendencies.
