Freedom!

As a Christian, then an American, I am somewhat concerned about the Church and my country. Our country has corrupt leaders who are elected by corrupt Americans. We deserve the Government we get! Why so much corruption and so many lies? I would like to interject an idea. The corruption in the Church of Jesus Christ aids in the corruption of our Republic. When the Church Proclaims Liberty through the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ, the people rejoice over the Freedom they have received through the transformation of their lives, and the country in which they live will also be transformed because of the Freedom they receive from the Gospel. However, when the Message of the Church wains the people groan and the country also groans because Freedom is taken away. This principle is found in Proverbs 29:2 “When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn.”
It sounds precisely as to what is happening to America. The Death, burial and Resurrection of Christ is no longer the message of the majority of Churches. Most churches have become so politically correct that they have become Biblical incorrect. Don’t bring up the consequences of sin. Don’t talk about the Cross. Don’t talk about Hell or the Lake of fire. Don’t talk about the Wrath of God coming upon ungodliness. We need to only speak of His Love. Tell people that God is not mad at them. Tell people that they are ok just as they are. Never talk about Jesus preaching repentance. As a result, people believe lies and are unconverted to Christ, and lack spiritual discernment to know where they get Freedom. They then vote for unconverted, corrupt and spiritually blind leaders to lead them. Jesus warns believers that false teachers and prophets would increase just before His Return. “Mt 24:10 At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, 11 and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people.” Freedom does not come from people or Governments, it comes from Christ. “Ga 5:1 It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.” Again listen to Scripture; “1Pe 2:16 Live as free men, but do not use your freedom as a cover-up for evil; live as servants of God.” For all that are reading this; Christ Jesus is the Author of Freedom! Let all the false teachers and false prophets who rob men of this Truth, be warned. Jeremiah 23:25 "I have heard what the prophets say who prophesy lies in my name. They say, 'I had a dream! I had a dream!' 26 How long will this continue in the hearts of these lying prophets, who prophesy the delusions of their own minds? 27 They think the dreams they tell one another will make my people forget my name, just as their fathers forgot my name through Baal worship. 28 Let the prophet who has a dream tell his dream, but let the one who has my word speak it faithfully. For what has straw to do with grain?" declares the LORD. 29 "Is not my word like fire," declares the LORD, "and like a hammer that breaks a rock in pieces?
30 "Therefore," declares the LORD, "I am against the prophets who steal from one another words supposedly from me.”
I pray this message gives insight as to what is happening in America. I also pray that believers will repent and humbly seek the face of Christ who can restore His Church, message and our Republic!
