Clearly, Christians can recognize that America is in rebellion against God. We have prayed, "Please, Lord"—hoping that our nation would come to its senses and turn back to God.

The recent tragedy at a Trump rally in Pennsylvania offered grim evidence that those who have foolishly sown the wind have stirred up a whirlwind of division and animosity. One American was killed and two were wounded. Donald Trump’s miraculous deliverance from his own tragic end led him to testify that it was "God alone who prevented the unthinkable from happening."

A spirit of deception and division infects our nation, and the urgency of America’s choice is as near as the election this fall. This is yet another inflection point when we will collectively choose once again what leaders—and what ideological agenda—to follow.

The Democrats intend to promote and celebrate unfettered abortion and all the pathologies associated with the LGBTQ+ agenda. The Republicans may lack clarity regarding what they want to affirm, but they at least stand in opposition to such ungodliness.

Our nation in freefall may have already reached the point of no return with regard to incurring God’s wrath. But as long as Christians inhabit the world and have influence to exert, a voice to speak out, or a vote to cast, we must advocate for that which honors the Lord and reflects His will.

The newest edition of the Lamplighter magazine examines where we’ve been, where we are, and where we are headed as America hangs in the balance.
