Hello, thank you for joining me today, forgive him 15, the title of today's post,

Important, Upcoming Events. I'm unsure why most believers do not pray passionately for America's

recovery and turnaround. I suppose it's a combination of causes.

For some, it is their theology.

They believe the condition of America and the world is just a sign of the times.

There's nothing we can do to stop it.

God is sovereign.

If he wanted to change it, he would. They believe just accept it. God is sovereign. If he wanted to change it, he would. They believe, just accept it.

We'll be rescued soon by the rapture. Then there are those who fall prey to the frog in the kettle

syndrome. The premise is that if a frog is put suddenly into boiling water, it'll jump out.

But if the frog is put in tepid water, which is then brought to a boil slowly, it will not

perceive the danger and will be cooked to death. The story is often used as a metaphor for the inability or unwillingness of people to react

to or be aware of sinister threats that arise gradually rather than suddenly.

Some modern biologists dispute this theory, but the metaphor is still used extensively.

Regardless, the phenomenon has certainly occurred in America today.

To many Americans, including the church, warnings about what what is occurring in America have gone unheated.

The growth of government, loss of freedoms, incredible moral decay, rebellion against God. These and other

destructive phenomena have occurred one degree at a time.

We adjust and all seems okay.

Meanwhile, another baby is killed, another child is castrated,

and another sin is accepted as normal.

One would think the church would surely be ablaze with fervent prayer and grieving repentance
