“God, Help Us”<\/p>\n
or<\/p>\n
“Government, Help Us”<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
So what does it mean to “help” us or “save” us?<\/p>\n
Governments save anything that will keep them in power.\u00a0 “I’m from the government, and I’m here to help you.”<\/p>\n
God saves anyone, like me, who humbly and honestly asks Him to forgive my sin and let Jesus be Lord of my life.\u00a0 Then He promises to help me through everything in this life.<\/p>\n
