Where is the Church?





Where is the Church?
(by R.P.Edwards)

It used to be
Long ago
The CHURCH decided 
Where to go
But now the godless
Throw their weight
And push their sin
To Peter's gate



A while back I wrote a little blurb about the general godlessness associated with cities. What caused my little tirade was the decision of Charlotte NC to pass an ordinance that, in the guise of progressive anti-discrimination, allowed men with identity issues to enter women's bathrooms while my daughter or granddaughter are in there. Madness.  

Well, the state government decided to right this obvious wrong by passing an overriding ordinance, HB2. The thing is, the head law enforcement guy (AG), Ray Cooper, says he won't enforce it. Forget that the people want it (and decency demands it!), and that it's his JOB, he has decided to side with the anti-christian forces (let's be honest here; it's a battle of belief), and push for the normalization of indecent behavior (again, a man...with MY daughter...in the public restroom!)

And, adding to the madness, there are powerful forces that add their unholy amen to the argument. American Airlines, Google, Facebook founder (what's his name), various city Governments etc; all sincerely (and I'll give them that) pushing for their godless tenets to rule the day.

But, rather than go on (oh, a linking to elements of the Democratic Party is certainly in order), my question is; where is the Church? The Church (the Bible believing one) USED to be a force to be reckoned with in our society. IT was the definer of decency and, ITS tenets held sway when America actually became great. And now that the unappreciative are misusing their unearned inheritance (to the detriment of all); where is that voice that declared, "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom." My friend, America will never truly be great again without it.
