God or Government


It started nearly 50 years ago, when the war on religion began.  Since then we have seen a slow but aggressive progression to remove God and any symbol of religion or celebration from our lives.  The 1st Amendment gives us protection from prohibiting the free exercise thereof, but over this time period we have seen groups, courts and politicians circumvent what our constitution says, by quoting the separation of church and religion that is not in the constitution and ruling against any form of religion expression on government property that had been acceptable since our founding over 220 years ago.  We now see government becoming our new religion as a replacement for God.  As church attendance has decreased during this time, government handouts have increased.  After all government now gives us money, cellphones, a home, food other material stuff.  What government gives us we can see and touch if we do not rock the boat, we can get more.  But what does God give us? Government gives us material, God gives us the spiritual.  Government gives us things that will expire, but God gives us eternity.  Our world has made great advances during this timeframe in producing inventions that have improved our living conditions, while ignoring the one who gave us life.  It is God not government that will save us if we only turn to Him.  God has the answers, government has the lies.  The choice is yours.  Live for the present or live with the promise of eternal life after death.
