Make America Great
|
Thursday, March 09, 2017 |
I have a plan for making America great! It has nothing to do with Donald Trump or the Republican party or the Democratic party either. It has everything to do with the simple biblical premise of Psalms 33:12, “Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord.” Now, follow my logic. The only way any nation can rightly be described as one “whose God is the Lord” is if the dominant voice and view of that nation is God-honoring. The only way that will happen is if the majority of us seek to please God by making others aware of His offer of salvation and a redeemed way of living. Solution lies with us! What I’m saying is, the solution is not in the impossible mists “out there somewhere.” The solution lies—in large part—with us. The way to make America great is to make Christ magnified! This happens as you and I share Christ with our neighbors through godly lives, uncommon kindness and words of witness. It is not enough to merely “live the life” or “walk the walk.” Jesus did not merely do good deeds. He spoke the gospel message. And so must we.
One more time... When we choose to share Christ, we will surely be much closer to “that nation whose God is the Lord.” Look for less crime. Less greed. Less immorality. Less poverty. Just a few benefits of living in a nation whose God is the Lord! We must share Christ. Not to make America great…but to magnify our God! Carl Henry said, “The gospel is only good news if it gets there in time.” Isn’t it time we made time…to share Christ in America? |
