Liberty Declared, Now What?

We just celebrated a holiday, the birth of a nation, a nation who's principles are grounded in morality, and that morality is based upon the teaching of the Bible. It causes me great distress that the principles we based our foundation of greatness on, are under attack. You see, despite their protests to the contrary, those who render that attack, are trying to destroy our country. Be it by purpose, or ignorance, the only way to topple a great nation is to erode it foundation.

Were do morals come from? Where does meaning come from? Where do notions of right and wrong come to light?

If you pronounce your own good and evil and decide to become the moral authority on your own; haven't you purposely anointed yourself to the status of god? You've detached yourself from the God who created you, hiding your guilt and shame through the self justification of declaring your own morality.The process of self justification is a form of idolatry, that's a big no-no in the Creator's eyes. Those who remain complicit, whether it be through deceit or ignorance, are still guilty of not only attempting the decline of our nation, but of eroding their relationship with God.

We'd do well to separate ourselves from these individuals, and expose them for what they are. Apathy emboldens their cause. Sin is social, it's never individualistic. Even in private, it affects the community. The repercussions can be as simple as ignoring it, implying that it's acceptable. We've ignored those who want to defile the principles our great nation was founded upon, for far too long. Nothing cleanses the soul like the bright light of exposure, ask ex-congressman Anthony Weiner. That's the kind of disinfectant this nation needs!

God Bless!
