CONSEQUENCES OF FORGETTING GOD

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY MARCH 25, 2022

    A GOOGLE SEARCH PRODUCES FIFTY-FIVE WARNINGS OF WHAT HAPPENS TO PEOPLE AND NATIONS WHO FORGET GOD. ONE OF MY FAVORITES IS FOUND IN REVELATION 2:4-5. IT SAYS, “BUT I HAVE THIS AGAINST YOU, THAT YOU HAVE LEFT YOUR FIRST LOVE. THEREFORE REMEMBER FROM WHERE YOU HAVE FALLEN, AND REPENT AND DO THE DEEDS YOU DID AT FIRST; OR ELSE I AM COMING TO YOU AND WILL REMOVE YOUR LAMPSTAND OUT OF ITS PLACE – UNLESS YOU REPENT.”  

    IT CAN BE DANGEROUS TO LIFT SPECIFIC VERSES OUT OF CONTEXT AND APPLY THEM TO AMERICA TODAY, BUT I THINK THIS ONE FITS. WE HAVE BEEN MOCKING GOD AND FORGETTING HIM FOR DECADES. THIS HAS LED TO MILLIONS OF ABORTIONS, THE MAINSTREAMING OF BEHAVIOR GOD CONSIDERS ABOMINATIONS AND NOW TRANSGENDER SWIMMERS AND A NOMINEE FOR THE SUPREME COURT WHO REFUSES TO DEFINE THE WORD “WOMAN.”

    CRIME IS UP IN MAJOR CITIES. PEOPLE ARE ASSAULTING AND STEALING FROM OTHERS. AMERICA APPEARS WEAK BEFORE THE WORLD. IS GOD REMOVING OUR LAMPSTAND? THE ONLY WAY BACK IS THROUGH PRAYER AND REPENTANCE AND REMEMBERING GOD AGAIN. IT BROUGHT REVIVALS IN THE PAST. COULD IT AGAIN? I’M CAL THOMAS.
