Sunday’s Sermon Series – Blessed Nation(s)

Posted on by directorfsm

12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance. Psalm 33:12

AMP and RVR-1960

I have said this elsewhere in posts, with a majority of Americans (although steadily declining) claiming to be “Christian” and seemingly to uphold “Christian” values; one would think, ethical, legal and moral ways would be the norm. Yet we see in the daily news an ever growing depravity of man and a revolt against anything Godly. Is it any wonder then, that God would lift His hand of divine providence from the USA, a nation founded upon the very ethical, legal and moral laws put forth in His Word. 

Sermon:

Preached on Aug 20, 2006; The sermon begins: It is always instructive, it is always enlightening, it is sometimes literally scintillating to turn to the pages of the Word of God and see what it has to say and how relevantly it speaks to our time and to our lives…
