The coming war on God

"In this war on God, there is no middle ground. It is not whose side God is on; it is this - are we on God's side?"

The coming war Bird? Don't you mean the war which is already here? I guess it is. The first shot was fired when God was booed by the Democrats at their convention. Or, when the Democrats wanted God to be taken out of their platform. But that was kind of a cold war. Just words (although, those words really meant something bad). Now the war has turned hot. Burning St John's Episcopal Church next to the White House was a huge escalation. Then just a few days ago, burning a statue of the Virgin Mary.

One might think these unspeakable acts were done by Muslims. Radical Muslims who hate the cross and the people who follow the cross. I almost wish it were. It would make things so much easier to explain. But this besmirchment of our God, as well as setting fire to His house, and His statues, is done by citizens of this country. Citizens who have turned their backs on God. Why? These are true anarchists. No law. No rules. No authority. That is why they hate this country, our Constitution, and most importantly, why they hate our God.

In this war on God, there is no middle ground. It is not whose side God is on; it is this - are we on God's side? That will be the battlefield. Will our actions be dictated by the Principalities of Darkness, or the Divine Will of God Almighty? By the way - this battle is not new. It has been going on since the war in Heaven. The war in which Satan, along with his angels were expelled from Heaven. And because Satan has already been defeated (but not destroyed), he will come after God's children. I am not making this up. It is right in the Bible, in the Book of Revelation.

This is not a time for God's people, or God's church to take a back seat. Not the time just to be an observer. This is the time to recognize there is a war going on. Good vs. evil. This is a time we need to put on the Armor of God, and be ready for this raging battle. And this battle will get worse. What we have seen right now could just be a harbinger of things to come. If the people of God just give up and give in to the secular humanists and the anarchists, I shudder to think of what comes next. In other words, this is a battle we CANNOT lose.

For too long now, many decided to abide with a tepid faith in Christianity. We can abide that way no longer. We need to be involved. We need to be resolute. Most of all, we need to be faithful in the Word. To know the battle for what it is, we must always know this is not about man vs. man. It goes much deeper than that. For someone to burn a church, which is the Bride of Christ, is evil beyond understanding. It is a spiritual evil, of which this country, this world cannot, nor should not, endure. 

Our commission as a Christian country is to practice the Great Commission. Those are our marching orders. If evil, which is now igniting this war on God, gets in the way of that Great Commission, then that evil must be vanquished.
