Jesus stated in John 14 : 15 " If you love me you will keep my commandments." That's a mouthful. People tell me they are Christians but in the same breath tell me you do not need to be baptized to be saved. Once again a deed as simple as baptism in which Christ clearly lays it out for us when speaking to Nicodemus in John 3:5 that unless one is born again of the spirit and the water they will not enter into the kingdom of heaven. I asked them in Jesus was here today and asked you would you deny him? It speaks to a bigger picture that folks believe they are Christians as long as they can live their life and only adhere to those teachings which fit into their lifestyle. The wages of sin is death. Romans 6

We have politicians and even our President saying they are devout Catholics. What does that really mean? From their example I would suspect that being a devout Catholic would mean I do as I please to get what I want. We also have a Pope advocating Homosexuality. I guess the Pope doesn't realize that sin will not enter into the gates of heaven. The bottom line is that these folks are in no way leading lives that even remotely would lead me to believe they are following the commandments of Jesus or that they even have a clue as to what it means.

This brings us back full circle to my original question. The spirit of God our Father will not be in a place where it is anything but Godly. He will not accept our selfish sinful ways and thus is slowly departing this land. My fear is that once he fully departs our grossly ignorant sinful society will fall into chaos. Jesus clearly tells us as the battle rages on between Americans that a house divided against itself will not stand Mark 3
