A Biblical Interpretation of American History



























               Signing of The Declaration of Independence

               One of the great failings of Christians is observed in their embrace of the historical views
               of nations thrust upon them by a godless society. The Scriptures declare that Christians are
               aliens and strangers in this world, yet all too often those who confess Christ Yahshua to be
               their Savior and Lord hold a world view that is based upon the myths and deceptions set
               forth by sinful and rebellious men and angels. Nowhere is this spiritual blindness among
               the people of God seen more clearly than in America. The churches have bought into the lie
               that  America  was  founded  as  a  “Christian  nation.”  American  patriots  fill  the  pews  of
               churches all across the United States. An attack on America is  deemed by myriads of
               Christians to be the equivalent of an attack on God Himself.

               I grew up in churches in the 1960s and 1970s where it was a common practice to have a
               Christian flag and the flag of the United States set up front on the platform where the
               minister preached. The congregation faced these flags week after week, and no one ever
               questioned whether this practice was right, or whether the Holy Spirit had been the initiator
               of it.
