Republicans To The Rescue?

With the November 4th election Republicans have gained control of the U.S. Senate and increased their numbers in the U.S. House.  Will they be able to bring about great change and stop the agenda of President Obama?  Do not count on major change but maybe the Obama agenda can be curtailed somewhat.  It will be nice not to have Harry Reid as the Senate Majority Leader.  But there is also a good chance that the Democrats will regain the Senate in 2016.  And the road to a presidential election victory will be very tough for the Republicans in 2016. 

We must also be realistic about the situation in our country.  It is hard to govern in a conservative way with a liberal culture.  Our modern American culture has a secular liberal worldview.  The tide of secularism and liberalism keeps rolling along.  And the overall direction of our country will continue on this path even with the election of Republicans.  

We must realize that our problems go much deeper than the political level.  Our real problems are spiritual and not political.  America is a nation in rebellion against God and is shaking its fists in his face.  We actually deserve his judgment.  Our country needs to turn from its secular worldview and embrace the Biblical worldview.  We must recognize God as the ultimate authority.  We must also recognize the Bible, his Word as authoritative.  All people need to repent of their sins and trust in Christ alone for salvation.
