Nations Rise, Nations Fall

No doubt about it, “The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times” (Psalm 12:6). Moreover, “Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him” (Proverbs 30:5). America is by far the greatest multicultural civilization on planet earth at this time. It was so in the beginning and it shall be until the end of time. However, God does not shield Christian believers from difficult circumstances, but he does try (tests) both the righteous as well as the wicked: the fruits of the Spirit. “It’s only a test”. Questions: is there a spiritual-moral breach in America’s socio-political democratic system that only God can fix? Have Americans torn down the spiritual-moral walls (moral conscience) of society (The Preamble to the U. S. Constitution) based upon a desire for White Privilege as espoused by Trumpism? Is President Trump a twenty-first century King Nebuchadnezzar that has thrown American society in the fiery furnace? Promoting racial superiority, cultural separatism, political governance confusion, and economic inequality are losing propositions because it is not of God! America, know this: “God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every day” (Psalm 7:11). Moreover, “The fool (POTUS #45) have said in his heart, there is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good” (Psalm 14: 1).

In Nations Rise, Nations Fall, the author seeks to creatively address the racial, cultural, and socio-economic political issues that are ripping apart the spiritual-moral threads of American society. Questions: will America become just like many other great nation-states and follow the pathway of internal self-decline/destruction? Or will America acknowledge that: “Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people” (Proverbs 14:34).

Job said it best: “Even as I have seen, they that plow iniquity, and sow wickedness, reap the same” (Job 4:8). America: “Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth” (Luke 12:15). America, get right with God!
