What caused what in the above?
How did it get started?
Why didn’t the church—Christians—stop, prevent, all the mess of today?
Is there an unspoken, unidentified development that got us on this wrong road to disaster?
A few words of warning, explanation, from history—from the God of history—to His people Israel.
“When you have eaten and are satisfied, praise the Lord your God for the good land he has given you. Be careful that you do not forget the Lord your God. Otherwise, when you eat and are satisfied, when you build fine houses and settle down, and when your silver and gold increase and all you have is multiplied, then your heart will become proud and you will forget the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of slavery.”
“Now therefore fear the Lord, and serve him in sincerity and in truth. And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord, choose you this day whom ye will serve. As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.”
“No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.”

That is the story of the American church, and American Christians. We have become rich and satisfied with God’s extraordinary blessings on this country. We have become proud of what we have, and have forgotten God. We have become focused on money and what it can buy. We have become servants of mammon, and don’t realize it.
It is the most impossible idolatry to repent of. It is impossible to be salt and light in the decaying and darkening culture. It is impossible to break free of total investment in “treasures on earth.”
