Just in case anyone wonders, I write from a Christian perspective. With that said, these few verses from Jeremiah seem to sum up our national difficulties today. There’s not much I can add.
Jeremiah Chapter 2
5 This is what the LORD says: “What fault did your fathers find in me, that they strayed so far from me? They followed worthless idols and became worthless themselves.
7 I brought you into a fertile land to eat its fruit and rich produce. But you came and defiled my land and made my inheritance detestable. 8 The priests did not ask, ‘Where is the Lord?’ Those who deal with the law did not know me; the leaders rebelled against me.
Promise of abundance
11 Has a nation ever changed its gods? (Yet they are not gods at all.) But my people have exchanged their Glory for worthless idols.
17 Have you not brought this on yourselves by forsaking the LORD your God..?
28 Where then are the gods you made for yourselves? Let them come if they can save you when you are in trouble! For you have as many gods as you have towns.
34 … Yet in spite of all this (v35) you say, ‘I am innocent; he is not angry with me.’ But I will pass judgment on you because you say, ‘I have not sinned.’
37 …the LORD has rejected those you trust; you will not be helped by them.
The Good News
What is the true source of our Liberty? Revival within the family of God may bring a positive reversal of fortune for our nation. It begins with each one of us.
