God hasn't abandoned us. He has been at peace with mankind and is not reckoning our offenses to us and wants us believers to entreat everyone to be at peace with God (see 2 Cor.5:19,20).

Why don't you listen and pit your scriptures against his, pit your logic against his and see who comes out on top?

What is so hard to believe? If God says He is at peace and is not reckoning our offenses to mankind then that needs no explaining, just believing.

Didn't watch the videos. My opinion is God did not abandoned the U.S. Too many have abandoned God.

So God has abandoned the U.S. and we are on our way to hell. And yet European countries and Canada and others have been way more secular than us for years and years...and they seem to have been generally doing fine. What gives?

What gives is that their governments, while more secular, were also more moral. The congressmen and presidents in the US for the past few decades have been corrupted by their own sense of power and entitlement. Ironically, it reached its peak (or should I say depths) with the previous administration; who set records for corruption and immorality - all while being loved by the religious right. I believe we have turned a corner and the nation will be improving in the years to come.

So no, I don't believe God has abandoned the US.

A bunch of "poppycock",
the church is falling away and that is how they talk when they start to fall away
or have fallen away (Apostasy)
The Apostasy
IMHO

Fundamentalist ;
Your thread title is misleading; (IMO)
It should have read," Has God abandoned America"
unless you agree with this video??
I can't help but start to wonder......
the closer we draw nigh to God, the closer He will draw near to us in these times
and we would not fall into temptation, especially adhering to garbage like this
instead speaking about the Holiness and God, giving thanks and praises to His Name
"Jesus Is Lord" you know what I mean, He will keep him in perfect peace who's mind is stayed on Him
In our prayers
