While I'm not saying that we shouldn't take action where we can, we should not get hung up on government, conspiracies, corruption and the like. There's no reason for a Christian who truly believes that God is in control to get bent out of shape over all this stuff. It's obvious that our country is under the influence of Fabian/Socialist/Communist forces, and has been since the 1800s. But that's for God to worry about, not us. We're called to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ and to save as many people from Hell as we can while we have time.

Aloha MC1171611,
I'm with you 100% brother.
There was a time when we might have been able to "make a difference" - that's no longer true!
After we had raised most of our children, I became very active in our local community here in Hawaii in the late 1980's. (Chairman - Constitution & By-Laws committee of the Hanalei Community Association {HCA} and served as the Association's 1st. President, 3rd. President, Vice President {several times} and Board of Directors member for at least 15 years).
I also ran for our local Council in 1990; and in 1992 I ran for the State House in a newly created State House seat {out of at least 11 people running for the seat (Democrats & Republicans), I was the only one that stood firmly against abortion - and one of the people running for the same seat was a "church of Christ" - "Reverend"!)
I won the Republican nomination, but was defeated by a local Japanese woman (Democrat - The "Labor" candidate), who out-spent me ($$$) close to ten to one, and yet I managed to garner 46% of the vote - not bad in one of the most "Socialist" State's in the Union.
I believe that God is "done" with America - we are all "washed up" with Him. As a country, you cannot: kill 50 million unborn children; embrace the Sodomite agenda; take away parents rights over their children; suppress the truth (The Bible) in the "
government schools"; refuse to execute killers, rapists, child molesters, and their ilk; refuse to punish evil doers; and wholeheartedly embrace the anti-God, anti Christian, anti-Bible religion of Atheistic Humanism, without God judging us.
Galatians 6:7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
Psalms 9:17 The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God. 
You don't see Paul trying to "
change" the Pagan Roman system, or trying to "
fight" Caesar. It's obvious that he knew Roman Law, and used it for his advantage, but to obsess over these things is a grave error. We are not called to be "
Christian Patriots" - we are called to be "Ambassadors for Christ"!
