Wow ok ..i quite agree with what you wrote here. History is a great teacher. That is why i think their trying to erase it or give it a new identity. In there own little way bringing down statues or rewriting history itself..... is not the answer.
We the church have seperated ourselves from the east and have now invented our own GOD per say.
When in fact our GOD is a never changing GOD....the true GOD that is.
Watering down the truth and making christanity more palatable has weaken the church.
This nation is tossed to and fro by winds of doctrine as paul said. Thats why we need to get back to our roots.
Many of Gods promises are to us also. I believe the church has a accountability that we need to start acting on.
Not that we can stop what God has ordered but to make sure we have done everything we were called to do.
The Lord has shown great mercy and grace upon this land of ours and our sins are many. His kindness and patience are seen throughout the pages of time.... But there will be a reckoning... and who can stand.
I'm not as well versed with the Bible but your reasoning seems to be the way I understand it. The Bible clearly and concisely defines the problems of this world. Add the true miracle that they were written thousands of years ago. Paul alone can be proof of these forecasts. John describes a Laodicean church that seems to be an accurate representation of the present day prosperity motivated churches. Who would have known such revelations ? Reinforced by Jesus and the others in the Bible that spoke of the 2nd coming of Christ and God's 120 year warning prior to the flood. Paul's mention of the reprobate mind in Romans 1:28 is particularly disturbing. What is man without a properly functioning mind ? Man has many basic ways of destroying himself and drifting astray from the absolute light of God's Word.
