God's word shows why we're losing liberty in America. Here's Adrian Rogers talking

about where we're headed as a nation. You know the government always assumes

more and more authority when the people lose more and more character.

And as character goes down, control goes up, and government begins to grow.

But if you're not careful, the government can begin then to oppress.

It follows as night follows day when we lose character,

at the same time we lose freedom and that's what has happened

in America today remember what Alexander Hamilton said people get the kind of

government they deserve welcome Welcome to Love Worth Finding, featuring the timeless teaching of pastor and author Adrian Rogers.

Proverbs 1434 says righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people.

In part one of today's lesson we learned that there is no true liberty without true righteousness. Righteousness is assuming our God-given

responsibilities as a citizen of the kingdom of God and our own country. When we lose

responsibility, we lose character and then we lose

righteousness. Knowing this, it's chilling to see the state of our nation right

now, lacking in character and righteousness. Is there any hope?

If you have your Bible turn to the book of proverbs as Adrian Rogers shares the only hope

for America. Righteousness exalted the nation, but sin is a reproach to any people.

You cannot separate righteousness and liberty. You see the reason that we are in danger of losing our

liberties is we are losing our righteousness. Now what is righteousness? Righteousness

is responsibility assumed.

And the more responsibility that you assume,

the more liberty you have.
