@Chimneysweepwife Well written. There is hope in that persecution is often the primer for repentance-fueled revival. America is sadly deserving of what we are witnessing, even the majority of our national heritage was born from rebellion and not the honorable "In God We Trust", which many herald as some form of proof (though proof surrounded by pagan and cultic symbology). There were certainly wonderfully faithful men and woman who came to the new world's freedoms to serve the Lord through them. This nation was largely blessed by that Christian saturation, however my studies have led to the conclusion that on a governmental level there was more Masonic/Babylonian adherence in the guise of "Christianity" than any true worship of the Judeo-Christian YHWH. Every major symbol in DC from the Monument to it's architectural layout is Masonic, as is every major US City. Thankful my citizenship is in heaven, and I have been adopted out of this world!
