What's a nation to do?

As our Country tries to figure out what to do with guns, I have been praying and thinking about what I should do. We were given the right to bear arms to protect ourselves from a possible tyrannical twist in our government and to protect ourselves from any foreign threat.Our forefathers gave us the freedom of speech so that we could talk about protecting ourselves from government oppression not to be able to bring pornography, violent movies, or anything else that abuses another individual.  God's word has given us instruction in how we should live and our government was based on the rules set forth in His word. The Ten Commandments is what our laws were originally based on.

Now we find ourselves in a great predicament. We have as a nation allowed many who are seeking to change the meaning of the founding documents to fit an ungodly way of life. We allow those who murder to go free, we do not demand restitution from the thief, we allow perversity to enter our society unashamed-ably. I understand that you can not rule or govern morality, but how can we continue the way we are headed as a society?

 As I look around I have discovered through God's word that what I need to do more of is preach and live the Gospel of Jesus Christ. It is the heart of man that continues to cause all the pain and suffering we have and see in the world. Unregenerate man can not and will not seek the instruction from God, nor seek to do the good of others. Life on this earth is short it is imperative that we preach ever so the more. We must live the gospel to show the love and holiness of God to this lost and dying world.

2 Chronicles 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
