Two Hundred and Forty-Six Traitors


Not too long ago the House of Representatives voted on a non-binding resolution to not increase the troop strength in Baghdad, Iraq in order to stop the violence against the population there. This was part of President Bush’s new strategy in the war on terror in Iraq. This shows that they do not want a stable government friendly to the United States in that country. Nor are they against the violence to the populace that goes on in Iraq. They also seem satisfied to have the violent terrorists run the country. They are also willing for those who have befriended the United States to be put to death just as our friends in Vietnam were put to death when we pulled out of Vietnam in the seventies.

There was no outcry from these same people about the deaths caused by the Communist North Vietnam military. They say America cannot win. They also have no faith in Almighty God. Nor do they fear God in their personal lives.

I am reminded of when Israel was to go into the land of Canaan and twelve spies were sent into the land for forty days to scout out and assess the situation. Ten of the spies came back with an evil report saying they could not win in a battle or series of battles against the inhabitants of Canaan. Two spies said they could win and should go up at once and take the land. The people believed the ten spies. As a result God was angry with the ten spies and the people. The ten spies died shortly thereafter and Israel wondered for 40 years in the desert until a new generation came along willing to follow God into the land of Canaan.

One day Satan will be stripped of his power and majesty and those who see him will say, “Is this the one who caused the nations to tremble and weakened the nations? He has become as weak as us.” He weakens the nations by turning men’s hearts from God. They have no faith in anyone greater than themselves nor do they believe there is someone greater than themselves able to help them. They do not live lives pleasing to God and therefore insure His wrath instead of His blessing. This in turn weakens the resolve of a nation.

America has many sins, which weakens it. First, is secularism, which is godlessness. Second is the shedding of innocent blood, abortion and embryonic stem cell research and euthanasia. Third is homosexuality. Fourth is cursing Israel with the land for peace and trying to have a Palestinian State. Fifth, is bad sexual behavior, bestiality, adultery, as well as others. Sin is a reproach to any nation even the United States of America.

Be not deceived, God is not mocked, whatsoever a nation sows, it shall also reap.
