The title summarizes what happened to the American church.
Short, concise, to the point.

First, the church fell asleep and let evolution take over our schools and our children.
Along the way there was a scramble to maintain compatibility with the changing culture.
Scrambled indeed, with no recovery for generations acting like animals, from being taught they are evolutionary animals.

Next, since God and the Bible and the Ten Commandments are totally opposite to evolution, they had to be gone from our schools, and across the society.
The church was still asleep at the wheel, to let this happen.
What can we expect but a breakdown of law and order and morality, without God to maintain civil government and self-control.

And, devaluing life through evolution and without God, led directly to literal killing with mass murder.
We decry the murder records of bloody dictators in history and the present, while we plunge headlong to surpass their numbers.
With one difference—our mass murder is legal (fifty years) – – – abortion ! ! !
UNBELIEVABLE ! ! !

Still, something sedated the saints—the ingredient that once “turned the world upside down” was missing.

Now, we face a national crisis multiplied times greater than the Civil War.
Lincoln said the country could not survive “half slave and half free.”
Consider what it cost to correct that unsustainable condition.
Today, this country cannot survive “half death and half life.” *
Consider what it will cost to correct this.

Since the Christians—the Christian Church—did not use the authority, the power of the Word of God, to stop the teaching of evolution, to stop the taking God and His Word out of school, to stop the legal mass murder of babies, to stop the onslaught of lgbt—we now wake up to woke, powerless to do anything but compromise—and compromise abounds in churches and leaders and businesses that were once Christian.
We are now just like Samson after Delilah cut his hair—he didn’t know his power was gone, because God was gone. **
The church does not even realize why we can’t do anything.

Lot may have been “vexed with the filth of Sodom,” but he chose to live there and participate in the affairs without standing against it, because that would cost too much (and his wife couldn’t part with all the nice stuff.)
Does that not describe the American Church—we are powerless, impotent, to make a difference now, because we are so thoroughly embedded in all “the nice stuff” of America—and have been for way too long.
“Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”
And it’s not just the things money can buy—it’s all the American system says we must have, that God wants to take care of—insurance, retirement—and depending on government welfare to do the church’s job.

We can’t expect the church to make a difference in this American mess, without God’s people turning from wickedness.
Preaching repentance is okay until you talk specific sins.
American Christians do not have to really trust God—haven’t needed to for some time—will soon learn a return to real, historical Christianity.

A man of God from Africa was sharing testimonies of miracles happening back home.
When asked why there seem to be many more miracles in Africa than America, his simple answer,
“In Africa, we don’t have a backup plan.”

** God may give the church one last answer to prayer for power, like He did for Samson, but I wouldn’t count on it.
