The Problem of Depravity–and the Coming Election
Watching the actions of various groups in America recently got me thinking about one of the “basics of life.”
While progressives and anarchists looted and burned many cities blaming racism, police, and social injustice, people of faith came to Washington, D.C. (and all over the nation) to repent and self-identify with the sins of the nation.
One worldview blamed out-siders for their problems. The other blamed themselves.
The “blame others” crowd might prevail and elect Joe Biden our next president if you believe today’s polls.
Why?
It’s a problem of depravity and the coming election.
The Election That Could Determine the Fate of This Generation
Some might call it hyperbole that this is the most important election of our lifetime.
But many are saying so–and I agree.
This will be the twelfth presidential election of my lifetime. For much of America’s history, presidential elections didn’t matter greatly because power was local and federal influence remained quite small (except for expanding the nation from “sea to shining sea”).
Beginning in the mid-twentieth century, the federal government began to grow exponentially, the nation became increasingly secularized, and the possibility of both economic problems (monstrous debt) and world rule (globalization) came menacingly into view.
Because of these and other factors, the November 3 U.S. elections could determine our fate in this generation.
Here’s how.
Truth Matters
The Democratic National Convention has concluded with Joe Biden and Kamala Harris carrying the banner for the D’s in the fall presidential election.
This week it is the Republican’s turn as President Trump and Vice President Pence rev up the GOP base for what is likely to be the most consequential election of our lifetime.
A simple question to ask: Who is telling you the truth about America and its needs?
Truth Matters.
