History shows certain signs of a rotting society and nation. Among them is acceptance of homsexuality, easy divorce, sex outside of marriage, abortion and similar.

The US is sinking.

I would just add here to be cautious about using that site.

It is still following the teachings of Armstrong and the old World Wide Church of God. Which is a problem.

:sinking: The problem is that most American believers are "worldly believers" (ref. Revelation 3:14-21 (http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Revelation%203:14-21;&version=31;)). Whenever possible, these "worldly believers" employ worldly approaches to spiritual issues. Ultimately, these "worldly believers" seek to "beat the world at its own game," which is impossible to do (ref. 1 Corinthians 1:18-31 (http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1%20Corinthians%201:18-31;&version=31;)). Hence, most "worldly believers" are not growing, remain frustrated, and become miserable.


:bible: :hmm:But what do the Scriptures say? Paul instructs us to cease comforming to the world (Romans 12:2 (http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Romans%2012:2;&version=31;)). We do not "wage war" like the world does (2 Corinthians 10:2-5 (http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=2%20Corinthians%2010:2-5;&version=31;)), nor do we focus on physical enemies (Ephesians 6:12 (http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ephesians%206:12;&version=31;)). Instead, we put on the armor of God (Ephesians 6:10-18 (http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ephesians%206:10-18;&version=31;)), while God sanctifies us (1 Thessalonians 5:23 (http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1%20Thessalonians%205:23;&version=31;), Hebrews 12:2 (http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Hebrews%2012:2;&version=31;)). These are not amusing abstract ideas for spectators, but the very tangible solution to our needs!


:showoff:Therefore, let us go into strict spiritual training (ref. 1 Corinthians 9:24-27 (http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1%20Corinthians%209:24-27;&version=31;)). We serve a living God (Jeremiah 10:10 (http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Jeremiah%2010:10;&version=31;), Romans 1:20 (http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Romans%201:20;&version=31;), 2 Corinthians 6:16 (http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=2%20Corinthians%206:16;&version=31;), etc.), while many witnesses watch us (Hebrews 12:1 (http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Hebrews%2012:1;&version=31;))!

Caution noted. I do not even read that site, just found a link to that film. I will not use that site again. Hmm, did not even know that. Thanks for the notice. (I think I need to take the link away)

[Brandli5]

Link has been taken away. Sorry. It was about letting people know being a homosexual is not acceptable by Jesus Christ our lord. It's an abomanation, and it will not be tolerated from God.

graphic video, Flash site. The end is near, is america going like Sodom?

[Brandli5]

Could not take it off. Can someone else?

Don't worry about. It is just fine with the caution noted.;)
