The word BIBLICAL has only one real meaning, however, many people either totally ignore the word or imagine it to mean something that is favorable to their own worldview. An unread Bible becomes just another book that collects dust. The fact is that the Bible is God’s revelation to humanity; a rulebook for successful living; a history book that explains life as it once was and that it still is as we live it in the present. More intelligent scholars than most have studied and have declared it’s truth, it’s accuracy and it’s relevance.
As I read the Bible I am led to believe that what Almighty God did to some nations in the past, He does to the nations of today, and what He described as an evil nation then parallels evil nations of the 21 Century.
It amazes me is that the Bible has been and still is the best selling of all books presently and for centuries in the past. However, because of the Internet and other forms of communications people don’t read much anymore to the point that the reading skills of Americans have digressed.
What amazes me the most is that all the answers to the questions of today are contained in the Bible and no one in the media mentions this fact. No one will admit that Almighty God is totally in control of all of the happenings here on Planet Earth. Today God is no different than He was four thousand years ago. Citizens of nations from the very beginning of nations up until today have behaved the same. When nations have recognized Almighty God for who He IS have always been blessed, and nations that have turned their back on Him and have failed to recognize Almighty God have paid a price. The price paid was sometimes a huge percentage of the populations lost their lives and most times suffered total economic failure.
As a nation what do we expect? We have murdered millions of pre-born human beings, we have ignored all the sexual attitudes of the LGBTQ community to a point of promoting such behavior: all of those attitudes and behaviors including adultery are an abomination to Almighty God! Have we not turned out back on the Almighty Creator God? Have we as a nation become so smart, so intelligent that we know better than our Creator? Just look around and see how the fear of COVID-19 has taken its toll on the World and has taken a toll on what has been considered the Christian nation of America. Will we ever learn?
I now watch Senator Chuck Schumer of NY on FOX news spew his hateful anti-Trump rhetoric as he addresses the Senate. His hateful behavior gives us a clue to some of the real problems! I pray that this man will realize the power of his hateful and deceitful tongue and contain it, however, I doubt that this will ever happen.
We are living in a time of SELF and not sacrifice! Shouldn't this change?
The Bible tells us about good news: “If my people who are called by my name humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land.” ~Almighty God, 2 Chronicles 7:14 NIV
