Not my call when, its just important to know the season...

Overall, I think it's sadly pathetic that Christians are using their paltry, lame religious excuses to denigrate all of the momentous things that this country has come forward from only to still sit here and refer to him as the Anti-christ.
Paltry? Lame? Excuses? wow...tell me how you really feel...

You know, fifty years ago, he wouldn't have been able to sit in the same seat of a bus as a white man and now he's the leader of this country. If that's a sign of growing immorality... Well, I'm sorry, but you should keep your racist opinions to yourself.
Nice spin... i was more thinking of continueing the practice of killing children no matter what trimester they are in. Overturning Stem cell ban, and redistributing the countries wealth and overtaxing. But if you need to play the race thing... that's your perogative...

I think it would only take religion to knock such an important event down the tubes.
Cuz all conservatives are religious?

You people really know how to disgust me from time to time.
YOU PEOPLE, Really?, i thought we always disgusted you. Let me know the times we don't, i'll mark it down in my book of important moments....

godspeed,

Some of the greatest spiritual awakenings have occurred during times of Godless leadership. American believers should get on our knees and pray for this country.

First, I think we should remember that from before the foundation of the Republic, Godly men and women have cried out to the Lord for mercy and blessing on this land the Lord brought us to. We should remember, it is the Lord who searches hearts and minds and knows them.

Like it or not as of Jan 20 2009 he is our president. The Lord knows what is in Obama's heart and mind, we do not.

Many believers in this country are getting visions, dreams and/or a knowing in the spirit that terrible judgements are about to come on our nation. Again, what should we do?

I think we should begin to fast and pray for mercy for our nation and new president and that the Lord would give him the wisdom and courage to do God's will for our land. What do you think?
no offense but Arkansas is not part of the republic. It's the south

We should do what my grandmother did when I was standing on the opposite side of many moral issues, and I was associated with "Woodstock", anti-war;
and all the other pill popping, acid-dropping degenerates of my time .
Pray for God to intervene, "but we don't know if he hasn't done this already, we must walk carefully praying always without ceasing for all men
It evidently worked for me...it can work for anyone and any situation...
Prayer is the appointed means for obtaining what we need. Pray; pray often; make a business of prayer, and be serious and earnest in it.—Matthew Henry Concise
God Bless You

President-elect Barack Obama stands on the same side of many moral issues of believers such as being empathetic and compassionate towards others, seeking to help those in need in a practical way, being a good role model, a good father and husband, being responsible, building unity instead of discord. He is also a believer.We pray for one another and for all people. Other Americans may have had associations with individuals with questionable ideology and ideas. This doesn't mean that they support the ideology or ideas. We are in the world but not of the world, for example. What of other presidents with whom we may not agree with on all things? They were still our leaders and needed our prayers and should have had the respect for the role that God has placed them in the responsibility that goes with it. He belongs to God just as we all do. He especially needs prayers for his protection considering the death threats being made against him. God bless.

He's the perfect end times example of where America went wrong after God gave us the opportunity and blessing of a Free country, we used it to fall into moral decay, religious confusion, which leads to captivity.
I love this country but this country was not free for all of the inhabitants of this land. Many lost their freedom when this country came into existence, freedom. God bless.

Maybe you should start a thread on this Shana;
because those who brought their pagan ideas and things to pervert the very
Godly principles that this country were founded are guilty too
God Bless You

Yhwhshalomjr,

I just made the point that the existence or founding of this country did not mean or bring freedom to all who inhabited this land. Many lost freedom as a result, regardless of whether or not it was founded on Godly principles. Thanks and God bless.
