America currently stands in a very dangerous position, said renowned pastor and author Dr. Charles Stanley. Today more than ever, the country is turning away from God and moving closer toward socialism, he warned. And the consequences will be grave. “We know the truth, we know the principles of God. In spite of all that, we find ourselves as a nation violating the laws of God, heading in a direction that is going to be disastrous for us, for our children and the generations that are to come unless there is a change,” he said. Speaking to thousands at First Baptist Church of Atlanta and to a live Web audience on Friday, Stanley delivered a sobering 4th of July message about a dangerous spiritual tide that is engulfing the country and the crucial need for prayer. “There is a tide that has touched the shores of our land and reached the heart of our nation,” he said against the backdrop of the U.S. flag. “It is a tide that is bringing with it ideas and philosophies, actions and attitudes that will ultimately destroy the way of life that you and I have.” The influential pastor and founder of In Touch Ministries listed 12 things involved in the tide. Among them are the financial crisis and the move toward socialism. With the national debt rising by the billions every day and increasing taxation, future generations will likely be left with a debt so heavy that they’ll never be able to spend most of what they make, he said. Addressing the idea of spreading the wealth, Stanley emphasized, “It is not the government’s responsibility to take care of us. It is to protect us. “We’re responsible for taking care of ourselves.” Socialism, he pointed out, is opposed primarily to Christianity and Judaism. “In Christianity, we’re taught to do our best because we’ve been gifted by God. So there’s motivation, willingness and we cooperate,” he explained. “We use our spiritual gifts for the good of everyone.” But under a socialist society, in which the government controls all means of production and distribution, there is no motivation for diligence and creativity is stifled, he said. When there is less reward, there is less to give. And as evidenced in the recent downturn, what suffers first is supporting missionary work. “You see, it affects every single aspect of society,” Stanley warned. He added, “Naturally, when the government takes control, do you think that freedom of speech is always going to be there?” “The tide is bringing in a control that will indeed attempt to silence the truth and will attempt to squash the religious devotion and worship of the people of God.” That tide began creeping in many years ago, he noted, when the government and the courts began banning prayer at schools and removing references to Jesus, God and the Ten Commandments from the public square, Stanley noted. “It is an attempt to destroy the Christian spirit in America,” he said. “There is a war going on against Jesus,” he declared. “It’s part of the strategy. The primary reason for this war against Him is He is interfering with the plan to make this a socialist nation. Mark it down. It is the truth.” Among the other elements of the dangerous tide are: terrorism, turning our backs on Israel, the announcement that the United States is not a Christian nation, increasing national disasters, a departure from the biblical view of marriage, and support for killing the unborn, Stanley listed. “Mark this down for socialism because these three groups of people who do not contribute to the state … are of no value: unborn babies, the elderly and those who are disabled,” said the Atlanta pastor. With the tide moving fast, Stanley issued a charge to Christians to turn it around. He called believers to join him in 140 days of humbling themselves, repenting of sins and praying to God. “The Bible says judgment begins at the house of God. We’re not expecting lost people to do all this because this is the work of the people of God; it is our responsibility,” he stressed. “A lot of where we are is because of our apathy. We haven’t prayed for these men who are making decisions.” “Do you want this nation to keep going where it’s going or do you want us to get back on track?” he posed. Prayer, he said, is the one thing he knows that works. “Do you believe God answers prayer?” he asked. “Pray for God to change the direction of this tide.” He added that those prayers have to be backed up with righteousness and a godly life if they are to be effective and nation-altering. “There has never been a nation like these United States. We do not want it to fail or to fall.” To join Stanley in 140 days of prayer, visit: http://intouch.org/ Lillian Kwon
Christian Post Reporter You can hear Dr. Charles Stanley weekday’s at 8:05am on KKIM www.mykkim.com remember no matter where you live you can listen to KKIM. Longtime KKIM Ministry sponsor Angelo Winfield sent this note after NM News and Views last night……..
Dewey,
I was in TN a couple of weeks ago, and people really do not think NM is part of the USA. I was asked was it hard to enter the US with all of the extra security? Are you afraid of the all of the drug violence where you live? Is it ok to drink the water? Do they use the Dollar where I live?
I was laughing inside, these people just did not understand. We need to ask NASA to send outreach to people here in the USA. It is a shame what is being taught in our schools. That is why my children do not go to public schools.
Have a Bless Day.

Yes, Angelo I think when you look at the poll that 26% of American do not know who we won our Independent’s from….should send off alarms to everyone! But then again all the Politicians will want to do is throw more money at the problem…that’s all they do….throw our money around. The sad thing is many adults in their 30’s and 40’s do not know American History. One of the downfall’s of a society is the lack of knowledge of itself.
When I moved to New Mexico I got so many comments from my friends in the midwest.How are things in Arizona? How close are you to Phoenix? Do you need a passport? (YES! I am serious!!!) Do they speak English there?
Back home in Windom, Minn I had to learn every state Capitol and we had to learn what made every state special. The pride for our Country grew in us by gaining knowledge of our great land, the United States of America. By the way, when did we stop calling ourselves, The United States of America?
We also said the Pledge of Allegiance every morning!
Instead of putting men in space, developing new technologies……………NASA is to improve relations with Muslim Countries………
I am here to tell you that our Men and Women at the Labs here in New Mexico and the people at NASA…..if the President gave them a charge to develop technology to help prevent oil spills like the one we are going through they could do it. If the President called on these people to help with this problem and let our allies help.I really believe that this oil leak would be stopped by God. But we have a President who does not know the Lord and has an ungodly agenda, and as Dr. Charles Stanley said is leading this country downhill quickly into socialism…and that is the TRUTH!!!!
Let us pray……………
Lord, We pray this morning for Godly leaders to be risen up by YOU, to bring back the United States of America to YOU. In the name of Jesus, AMEN!
In the Love of Christ, Dewey Sharon and family
