A friend sent me a message this morning, “The water is about to boil.”

I responded with,  “It’s not a good day to be a frog in the pot.”

We may not escape the impact of imminent judgment on America.

But we can escape the judgment in our personal lives from God, if we are obeying Him.

The decades, and centuries, of compatibility between America and Christianity have come to an end.

America was clearly founded, blessed, defended, and maintained as a Christian nation.  Any reading of our founding fathers and our founding documents shows this beyond the shadow of any doubt.

IN GOD WE TRUSTED!

GOD BLESSED AMERICA!

America has clearly left our Biblical foundations, and we are about to experience the full brunt of history repeating—as it always does.

Revivals, called Great Awakenings, set the stage for founding this country and the Revolutionary War.  And likewise we were prepared, through Great Awakenings, before the Civil War and before the World Wars.

That is what we need again today.  It is the only thing that will save us now.  And it is missing.

So there is little hope for America as a country.

But there is hope for individual Christians, if we have not remained in the “comfortable” pot as it heated up over the last several decades.

So what is the pot that has been heating up and is about to boil, that Christians were supposed jump out of before it came to this?

Well, no one is preaching it even now, but my dad did, and I will.

American Christians have participated and bought into the financial culture of insurance and retirement, depending on the world’s system (including the government) to take care of us—if we pay enough.  It is laying up treasures on earth, clearly forbidden by Jesus, but defended by every known preacher and Christian leader.

Oh, I know it’s been working—until now.  In 2008 there was a momentary questioning of money stashed away that became eligible for Jesus’ words about moth and rust corrupting and thieves breaking in and stealing.

Then everyone regrouped and got advice to invest smarter, and back to business as usual.

I find an interesting dichotomy when advisers say it’s going to crash, and simultaneously tell us where to put money for guaranteed income five, ten, twenty years from now.

I believe misplaced money by Christians, and the lack of repentance over this, is at the heart and center of the well-known Bible verse requirements for healing America.

“If My people, who are called by My Name, will humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and TURN FROM THEIR WICKED WAYS, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and heal their land.”

Sadly, there is not anyone, even now, calling for repentance over this.  And so, therein, there is no hope for America.

I pray God will honor this one voice crying out to American Christians.  Soon, my dad’s message will be vindicated, and Jesus’ words will ring true once again.

Will it be too late for America?

Will it be too late for American Christians?
