If Destruction Is Our Future, We Are To Blame, Proverb 29:18

Today Americans have stopped acting in terms of their own moral, ethical religious beliefs and principles. They stopped acting on what they knew was right, and the "me attitude" has become the measure of everything. However, moral societies are the only ones that work.

If anyone thinks there is not a direct and inviolable relationship between personal integrity in a society and that society's prosperity, that person has simply not studied history . . . Great moral societies, built upon faith in God, honor, trust, and the law blossom like a flower in.

Some 160 years ago the French historian Alexis de Tocqueville wrote that "America is great because America is good. If America ceases to be good, America will cease to be great." Today I look see America, and what I see is a nation that is no longer good, nor great. We are a nation in decline. Just as Israel failed to be great when they turned from God, so too has America.

Don't Cast Off Restraint, Have Faith In Christ, Proverb 29:18

Through the years, many have misunderstood today's verse. They have come to believe that since the people perish due to a lack of vision what they need to survive is to have a pastor who casts visions or a prophet who shares visions. Thus we end up with many of the false teachers on television who take advantage of young Christians by playing upon their ignorance of the Scriptures. This particular proverb is taken out of context so often, because they fail to understand how this Proverb is constructed.

Where there is no revelation, the people cast off restraint;
But happy is he who keeps the law. Proverb 29:18
