Good News for a Lost America

We have enjoyed the freedoms and blessings of our wonderful country, America, for over two centuries. We choose where we work, wherewe live, who we associate with, what we buy and how we worship.We have more physical prosperity than any nation before us. But allis not well; the solid foundation of principles our forefathers builtour nation upon cracks.Values that once were widely held by Americans are being replacedby an ever-changing morality. We draw up battle lines between conservativeand liberal values: between Republican and Democraticparties. We look to leaders for integrity, but we find corruption. Weare confused about our purpose, destination and roles.Somewhere we lost our way.The current fruit is the product of seeds sown long before. Atheismsteals our hope, causing widespread depression. Postmodernismsteals our identity leading to massive confusion over moral issuessuch as abortion, sexuality and gender. Man-made religions steal ouraccess to God leaving us unsure about who He is and how to pleaseHim. Calvinism infects every major Christian denomination andsteals our choice.Christian Nationalism steals our true spiritual citizenship and polarizesour nation without a real means of resolution. Today, we feel theeffects of belief systems established decades and even centuries ago.Americans need Good News.The Bible often refers to the gospel and speaks of the Son of God asJesus Christ.
