Many people think that the US is a Christian nation but the number o
f pseudo christian
s out number those that have accepted Jesus as Lord and Savior. The
y worship flags, sexuality, TV, sports
, drugs, personalites and money. they think by just going a church
, any church and throwing a couple bucks it the plate or basket on Sunday, then
they go home to watch sports and drink beer
.
I think the US had a lot of good ideas in the beginning but the greed took over. The US is a
better country than most if not all others. It's certainly not a Christ centered Christian nation. It's a nation with a lot of, yet still, a minority of Christians in it. many think our president is chosen by God and all the laws must be obeyed even if in conflict with the word. But the word says;
Acts 4:18-21 18Then they called them in again and commanded them not to speak or teach at all in the name of Jesus. 19But Peter and John replied, "Which is right in God's eyes: to listen to you, or to him? You be the judges! 20As for us, we cannot help speaking about what we have seen and heard." 21After further threats they let them go. They could not decide how to punish them, because all the people were praising God for what had happened.
In short they were ordered not to preach. You know what they did! They went back out and obeyed God's law and preached. Yes they were eventually cursed by the law. Peter was crucified and John was left to starve to death, Alone, on an island. But the example they Paul and all of the first apostles set are the one to live by.
