Yes God will not continue to bless a nation - or a church - which rejects Him and the Holy Bible.
The Democrat politicians especially are digging an eternal damnation for themselves.
Today western nations are attacking God directly for His laws and doctrines. All that they end up doing is establish their guilt as depraved and satanic sinners.
Eph 6:10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

Psalm 74
20 Have respect unto the covenant: for the dark places of the earth are full of the habitations of cruelty.
21 O let not the oppressed return ashamed: let the poor and needy praise thy name.
22 Arise, O God, plead thine own cause: remember how the foolish man reproacheth thee daily.
23 Forget not the voice of thine enemies: the tumult of those that rise up against thee increaseth continually.

Someone has infiltrated this Comments Board and is infecting readers who don’t know to keep their mouths shut AS THE LORD COMMANDED.

“Out of the mouth of the most High proceedeth not evil and good?”

Matt 5:11 Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man.

Exod 23:13 And in all things that I have said unto you be circumspect: and MAKE NO MENTION of the name of other gods, neither let it be heard out of thy mouth.

So Christians BEWARE. Don't facilitate Satan's agenda by spreading this evil.

John Yurich purposely comes on to these threads to post the error that attending the Roman Catholic idolatry is acceptable.
JY is either a Jesuit working under cover in an insidious way to further the ends of the RC philosophy - Or he is simply being used by Satan and sin to poison true Christian witness.

Their response would be to reject the deception and post the Bible fact.
True Christians recognise the error, idolatry and false witness of the RCC and its Vatican and papal antichrist.

When a true Christian sees that which is false under the name of Christianity then it is their duty to contend just as the Bible itself does.

Satan regularly works in disguise as an angel or many other disguises, may the Lord give us backbone to fight back.

A true Christian would SHAKE THE DUST OFF THEIR posts.

But it could be a problem with the intellect. Like many in RCC some things are drummed into them until they cannot reason.

I didn't say anything about not voting
So let me clarify a bit
in sharing in the paying of taxes of a community as a church, we are in a much better/stronger position to address government meetings and participate in the doings of government than if churches were freeloading off the taxes of others and putting themselves under the restrictions the state imposes on those with tax exempt status

Michael Hranek wrote:
good observation, thanks
BTW having been raised in a Roman Catholic home I recall hearing similar things from Catholic clergy, how their aim was to bring everyone in the world into the acknowledgement of the Pope
and of course CCC 841 states that Catholic and Muslims adore the same God

I tend to agree with you
The local church has a community it is located in and ought to be a contributing part to the well being of the people who are our neighbors
that also frees us to have a voice, if we choose to use it, (to be salt and light) to have input in what our local government does and doesn't do, what it spends money on or doesn't
Something Imho far better than isolation

Huh?

Wise churches should opt out of tax exempt status voluntarily, and ahead of having it taken away. The true church is an offensive weapon, in both major senses of the word.

Now look, the RCC has always worshiped the biblical and historical Jesus because it states in the Apostles and Nicene Creeds "We believe in one Lord Jesus Christ the only begotten Son of God"(That is the biblical and historical Jesus). And the RCC believes in the biblical and historical Virgin Mary.

WHY do you keep engaging in dialogue with John Y? There is nothing in scripture that tells us to believe in or upon anyone other than the Lord Jesus Christ.

John Yurich USA wrote:
The RCC has always worshiped the biblical and historical Jesus as God and not a false jesus. If the Apostles and Nicene Creeds state "We believe in one Lord Jesus Christ the only begotten Son of God" then that means the RCC worships the biblical and historical Jesus as God. If I participate only in the scriptural parts to the Mass then I am worshiping Jesus in spirit and truth as the scriptural parts to the Mass are accepted by Jesus as being true worship. Luther under the guidance of the Holy Spirit retained the Mass in the Lutheran Church minus the unscriptural parts. The reason I am choosing to attend the RCC is that I am more comfortable with liturgical worship.

Luther is not the final authority. He knew 'in part' as all men do. He is only one Body part. Also, your "comfort" matters zilch when it comes to true worship.

I a beginning to feel that you are causing us to reap judgment upon ourselves by having posters critize people articles are written about. Each day you have directed our attention toward WORLD EVENTS. Also, when we go to the link to read the full article, there is Las Vegas in printed form; a money making machine for Christians. Money making links beckon us to become distracted.
What's up with this? I hope you're not SELLING us out.

If I be lifted up ... I will draw all men to myself, is what the Lord says. This is so that we will be changed into his likeness (image) as described in 1 Corinthians 13.

Be careful that you don't cause us to become weary with the burdens of the evil one.

How about having us comment on a sermon you've heard; one that caused another conversion in YOUR HEART.
