The Tide of Our Times
“The Loss of Purpose... The fatal flaw of the humanist viewpoint ... is based on an assumption that man is basically good and can therefore be trusted.
The biblical view is just the opposite. It teaches that Man is born with a flawed sin nature and cannot be trusted. Consider the words of Jeremiah (17:5,7 & 9): ‘Cursed be the man that trusts in man...Blessed is the man that trusts in the Lord...The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?’ The genius of the American founding fathers is that they recognized the truth of what the Bible teaches about the sinful nature of Man. They trusted no one, not even themselves. They therefore crafted a unique form of government that was filled with checks and balances. It was a government based upon a realistic assessment of Man’s nature.”
“THE WORD IS OUT that [Syria]—labeled as a state sponsor of terrorism—will cease its support for terror organizations, join the global fight against terror, and cut ties with Hezbollah if Israel withdraws from the Golan Heights...
... Syria has no intention of reforming and joining the civilized world; it is interested only in regaining the Golan Heights to use as a base, as in the past, from which to attack Israel. Lying to get what you want is the hallmark of the philosophy of the times...
... Biblically, we understand there is only one answer for the lies, distortions, and hate-mongering going on today. It is inspired by Satan. There can be no other rational explanation...”
“THE WAR AGAINST CHRISTIANITY. The war is [on] against those who regard the Bible to be God’s revelation to humanity and the Ten Commandments to be His set of rules for all time. Phase one in this war is to make Christianity...socially unacceptable. Something only foolish, poor, and ugly people could turn to...
... Without a vibrant and vital Christianity, America is doomed, and without America, the West is doomed.”
“Creationists op en $27 million museum—Petersburg, KY...Despite the showmanship behind the $27 million museum... the evangelists who put it together contend that none of the gleaming exhibits are allegorical. God did create the universe in six days, they say, and the Earth is about 6,000 years old...The Creation museum, a project of the religious organization Answers in Genesis, mocks evolutionary science and invites visitors to find faith and truth in God...”

WORTH QUOTING
“Economic and military power can be developed under the spur of laws and appropriations. But moral power does not derive from any act of Congress. It depends on the relations of a people to their God. It is the churches to which we must look to develop the resources for the great moral offensive that is required to make human rights secure, and to win a just and lasting peace.”
—John Foster Dulles
“The spirit of man is more important than mere physical strength, and the spiritual fiber of a nation than its wealth.”
—Dwight D. Eisenhower
But especially,
“Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people”
(Prov. 14:34).
