My God!
He is not an Episcopalian, not a
Catholic, not a Baptist, not an Evangelical. His politics are not left leaning
nor do they hedge to the right. He will outlast Mt Rushmore; He is not
represented by a bald eagle but a descending dove.

Every nation has churches
that are shaped by their society’s cultural values and by the political
landscape of the day. America is no different. But we must always remember that
the God of the Scriptures is the God of one ideology, His. He is the God to the
poor and stranger(s), Lev 19:10. God,
residing in his holy dwelling is a father to the fatherless, a defender of
widows, Ps 68:5. He also preserves the stranger [foreigner]. Ps 146:9 I love America, my country - I’m committed to liberty and justice for
all. But much too much of the church is reflecting the ugliness of our age
rather than the beauty of the risen Christ. Pray with me: Lord, save us from
ourselves. In your great mercy, restore and heal each of us, wherever we reside;
grant us your peace on this this earth…pkes
