Another Letter To Yahoo

This letter was written by me to Yahoo News readers approximately 8 months ago.  It is in response to an article written about freedom.  The response to this letter was varied.  I came away thinking, that in the view of some, freedom is okay, unless you want to lift up the name of Jesus.  Until someone is able to convince me otherwise, I firmly believe  that this is a great country because most of the founders knew and believed in, the Word of God.   This country is an experiment in freedom.   Freedom is a "hot potato."  It always has been.  It always will be.  I don't preach too much in my blogs.   But I always embrace the connection between the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and freedom.  I can promise you this:   When the preaching of the Word of God disappears, then..............freedom will disappear.   "Where the Spirit of The Lord is, there is liberty." (2 Cor. 3:17)

There are many unkind words, name-calling and hatred in these comments. The bottom line is this: We all need Jesus. None of us need religion, candle lighting, parades with wagons carrying statues, etc. We need the Word of God inside of us. Are you so naive to actually think that this great nation evolved by acccident? Jesus is 100% God. He became a man and dwelt among us. He is the Word made flesh. The USA is an imperfect nation because it is full of human beings. But listen: HUMAN BEINGS THAT HAVE THE WORD OF GOD INSIDE OF THEM CONDUCT THEMSELVES DIFFERENTLY THAN THOSE WHO JUST PRACTICE RELIGION, RELIGIOSITY AND RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES. "Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord." "Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people." Nobody on this planet is righteous. "There is none righteous, no, not one." The only righteousness that exists is derived from the Word of God, not from the hearts of men. Please read II Chronicles 7:14. Check it out for yourself. If you have a better idea, I sure would like to hear it. Give your life to Jesus. He is God. The founders of this country surely believed it. We have reaped the benefits of it, even though the country is not perfect. There is no such thing as a perfect country, and there won't be, at least not here, through human political activity.  But we have a perfect Jesus.  His name is above every name.  "Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven  given among men by which we must be saved."  (Acts 4:12)  Give Him your life.
