The United States was founded on Christian principles. Most of our founding fathers has a strong faith and reverence for God. There were several great revivals in our nations history.

Are we still a Christian nation? President Obama once made the comment that we are no longer a Christian nation. Is that true? I think the question we need to know is ‘Does God think we are still a Christian nation?’.

I know there are still a lot of good people here in this country. But, are we good in God’s eyes or are we only good in our eyes?

When you think about it, in this nation we have murdered over 50 million innocent babies through abortion. We are to the point that we are forcing people to support gay marriage in their businesses. We promote and glorify immorality through the movies we watch.

I think we have drifted from where God wants us to be. I don’t see people seeking God and His forgiveness. Instead I see pride and defensiveness.

When we have social problems, we ask for the government to do something instead of calling out to God. When we have medical problems, we trust the medical system instead of trusting God. When we have financial problems, we go to the bank or trust in our income instead of asking God. We trust in our guns more than we do in God.

I do think there is hope for America, but only if we seek God, ask for forgiveness and have a real revival .I don’t know if we have gone too far in God’s eyes and we are facing imminent judgment or not, but I suspect we are getting real close.
