KEEP FIGHTING

Articles keep coming to me by email that are getting worse and worse. We are into the apostasy, and the collapse of our cultural as we have known it is accelerating. We must continue to pray but it's as if God has answered! Remember, He answers Yes, No, and Later. So far, it has been a loud and clear No! The judgment is falling upon this country. I began writing and speaking about the coming of the apostasy about two years ago, and indeed, I was right on target. Things are getting worse, both in our culture and in the churches.

 If you want to read about these things that fell upon Israel centuries ago, as recorded in the OT, open your Bible to almost any of the prophets and you'll see what normalcy is all about. We are going back to normalcy, that is, the way things should be, when sin has its full opportunity to spread throughout a culture. By God's blessings, we have been protected for generations, living in "non-normal" days of goodness and the kindness of the Lord. Remember, sin is normal! And that is what we are returning to!

For example, we read in Hosea:

"Israel has forgotten his Maker and built palaces (prosperity); ... I will send a fire on its cities that it may consume its palatial dwellings. ... Do not rejoice, O Israel, with exultation like the nations! For you have played the harlot, forsaking your God. ... The days of punishment will come, the days of retribution will come; let Israel know this! The prophet is now a fool, the inspired man is demented, because of the grossness of your iniquity. ... They have gone deep in depravity. God will remember their iniquity, He will punish their sins. ... Though they bring up their children, yet I will bereave them indeed when I depart from them! ... [ Israel ] is stricken, their root is dried up. They will bear no fruit, even though they bear children, I will slay the precious ones of their womb. My God will cast them away because they have not listened to Him." (Hosea 8-9).

 America will not turn back! Our apostasy is racing forward, and God is storing up a judgment by the foreigners who are coming in to our country and destroying our heritage. Your churches and the Christian believers need to prepare for terrible times coming. God is removing the blessing from our land. –Dr. Mal Couch (Apr., 10)
