Romans 1:16<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cFor I am not ashamed of the gospel\u00a0of Christ\u201d. The reason we have the chaos we see in our country is because of those who are ashamed of the gospel of Christ. Until we can convince our leaders to embrace the gospel of Christ, and come before Him with fear and trembling, we can stop saying God bless America. It is worse here than it was in Sodom and Gomorrah. As of late, the laws they are coming up with are against everything we as followers of Christ hold in high regard, showing us, that they are ashamed of the Gospel of Christ. But it is not just the leaders in our Country, it is many in the churches that are afraid to witness because they don\u2019t want to offend anyone. Being ashamed of the gospel of Christ is the same thing as denying Him before man, to which He said, \u201cFor whoever is ashamed of Me and My words, of him the Son of Man will be ashamed when He comes in His\u00a0own glory, and\u00a0in His Father\u2019s, and of the holy angels (Luke 9:26). We need to understand the last part of the verse, \u201cfor it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes\u201d (Romans 1:16b) (emphasis mine). We need to be good witnesses in what we do<\/em> and say<\/em>, and the Power of God will do the rest.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Romans 1:16 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cFor I am not ashamed of the gospel\u00a0of Christ\u201d.
