Apostasy Can Lead a Nation to Self-Destruct: Will America Mend Its Ways and Return to God? is the study of two nations separated in time by several thousand years. From their founding, both nations and their people, for untold generations, were consecrated and dedicated to God. Who are these nations? They are ancient Israel and America.Both nations were plagued with historical amnesia--the failure to pass on to future generations the story about the protection, blessings, and prosperity they had received at the hand of a loving and compassionate God. As a result, apostasy began to gain traction so that the people of each nation began replacing the worship of God with flourishing idolatry.What happened to ancient Israel is history. God waited patiently for the nation to return to him so that he could destroy its enemies and heal the nation. He patiently tolerated its defiance but finally declared his righteous judgment, allowing the evil Assyrians to destroy that nation, and ancient Israel disappeared from biblical history. The status of America remains in limbo as God waits patiently for America to respond positively to his plea to return to him while it defiantly marches to its impending doom. Time is running out!A chapter is included that is directed to the reader who is doubtful that America will return to God but is also concerned about the eternal destination of his soul should America be destroyed by a cataclysmic event.

Other than the nations of Israel and the United States of America, I am not aware of any other nation that has ever been consecrated and dedicated to Almighty God. Being a nation so consecrated and dedicated carries the privilege of being surrounded by God''s hedge of protection and being the recipient of a multitude of gifts and blessings granted by His bountiful hand. Not only is it an honor to be a nation consecrated to God--but that nation and its people have the responsibility to trust, honor, obey and respect with dignity the decrees and laws of God to whom that nation is dedicated. Equally important, those people are to worship and serve no other god but Him. It is important to appreciate the fact that God takes great pleasure in blessing the nation that honors, obeys and worships Him. On Thursday, April 30, 1789, in Federal Hall in the City of New York, George Washington was inaugurated as the first President of the United States of America. With his inauguration, the Constitution of the United States of America became effective! Prior to that day the Constitution was only an organized group of words on paper. Immediately after his inauguration President Washington led the procession of all the members of the first Congress to St Paul''s Chapel several blocks from Federal Hall. Here President Washington led the congressional members of this new nation, The United States of America, in prayers to Almighty God. I have searched for, but failed to find the text of any of the prayers offered to Almighty God that morning. However, I am certain the new President and members of the first Congress prayed that the people of future generations of the United States would remain faithful to God, worship only Him as their God, honor His commandments and laws, and seek the protection of His mighty hand. A favorite scripture verse of the people at the time of the founding of the United States was Proverbs 29:2 of the King James Version of the Bible, "When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn." The following are a few examples of how God, over the years, blessed this nation and surrounded the nation with His hedge of protection: 1. Winning the battle for independence: In the Revolutionary War (1775-1783), the 13 tiny colonies without a trained army or an established navy defeated Great Britain, the world''s #1 military power at the time. How could that have happened without the blessing of Almighty God? At the conclusion of that war General George Washington posed that very same question. 2. Later the 13 individual states, the former colonies, were able to come together and become united under the Constitution of the United States of America as a constitutional republic. It has always been a constitutional republic and not a democracy. Many leaders and people erroneously identify the United States as a democracy. The achievement of drafting this historic document was completed because Benjamin Franklin scolded the delegates of the Constitutional Convention for their failure to seek God''s help. He, then, moved that the delegates begin each daily session of the Convention with prayers to Almighty God seeking His guidance in its deliberations. All of the states accepted and approved the Constitution and it became operational on April 30, 1789, upon the inauguration of George Washington as the nation''s first President. 3. God presented a number of opportunities that allowed the United States to expand its territory to the Pacific Ocean. The vast land made available to the nation a tremendous amount of natural resources--fertile agricultural soil, minerals and energy sources. These resources would meet the nation''s future strategic needs. It was also able to acquire the territory of Alaska. 4. "Emerging from the ruins of the Second World War, America stood at a high pinnacle of world history. It was the greatest financial power, the greatest industrial power, the greatest commercial power, the greatest political power, the greatest military power, the greatest economic power, and the greatest cultural power on earth." (The Mystery of the Shemitah p.205) The years 1962 and 1963, can be identified as the time when the United States officially began its journey down the treacherous path of apostasy. The Supreme Court issued court orders informing us that we, as a nation, would no longer walk hand-in-hand with Almighty God. The United States continued down the treacherous path of apostasy, when on January 22, 1973 the Supreme Court of the nation issued a court order authorizing the murder of unborn babies and ignoring God''s command regarding the sanctity of human life. Since that court order, the casualty count now is in excess of 60 million murdered unborn babies. Also in January 1973, after the signing of the Paris Peace Accords, the United States began withdrawing its troops from South Vietnam. This marked the first war in which the United States had engaged and in which it was not victorious. God was gradually withdrawing His favor from the United States and its people as it journeyed down the dangerous road of apostasy. Before the United States can return to God, we, the people must desire to re-consecrate and rededicate the nation, its people and future generations to God. We must humble ourselves and in prayer confess America''s sins and repent of its'' evil and wickedness. There must be a demonstrated intention and determination to proceed with the process of returning to God. Then God would, with confidence, re-establish and surround America with His hedge of protection to provide the peaceful environment to continue the process of returning to Him. The process of returning to God will be an arduous task requiring perseverance and seeking guidance from God. Many political leaders and influential people with "worldly wisdom" will vigorously oppose the actions necessary for the nation to return to God. However in spite of strong opposition, returning to God is possible, even at this late date.
