"your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness" - God and America



Kasumi-ga-seki, Tokyo

God and America

There is one reasonable writing about God and America:

Is God warning America? 
God is waiting and giving people the opportunity to turn to him. He warned America on 9-11, but America refused to acknowledge God! How many 9-11s and Boston bombings will it take before America turns back to God and his word? If we continue to go against his word and follow our own self-centered desires, he will bring judgment. 
God does not enjoy destroying the wicked, but he must punish sin. Water was used in Noah's time, and fire was used for the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah. Scientific evidence proves these things to be true! Look how the family is being affected. Allowing abortions and homosexuality in our society has only brought decay, and moral values don't exist anymore. Sin is only breeding more hatred and discord within America. Those who don't believe in God will deny his judgment. 
We were once a nation under God, and we thrived. Look at us now! America needs to repent and acknowledge the God of our fathers. Pray for America.

But there seem to be many who live in the domain of the Devil who pretends to be God to them:

When I was much younger my father wore a belt buckle that said the following:  “God, Guns & Guts Made America Free”.  For me it was more than the words themselves, it was the message that they represented which I identified with. 
In my formative years I recall a good balance between Faith and Patriotism.  Not only do I consider myself a God fearing individual but someone committed to the freedoms and liberties afforded here within the United States of America.  This is not to suggest there is either a religious or secular perfection but rather the pursuit of it.  For this reason I post articles for consideration and discussion. 
Within the United States of America there are many tenants that make the country unique allowing this national experiment to work.  Among them are what I’ve accepted as the Key 3 that allow for the continuation of this great effort.  They are God, Guns and Guts.  In addition to the content below I invite you to also visit this cite which is dedicated to the continuation of this work: 
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” - The Declaration of Independence of the United States

God and Americans is the truly big issue to be addressed as soon as possible.
