This is from a college class mate of mine. I went to a small christian college

that has become a small liberal christian college. I challenged the president of that

college last fall during the elections and was spat upon by some old class mates and the

president himself. My friends, I have been saying this for some time.

It is easy to get caught up in the fleshly things of earth. Most elected officials have done that today. Most corporate presidents and boards have done that today. The unions have done that today. When money, greed and ungodly acts take over a country the country turns away from God. God has no choice but to turn away from the country. I honestly believe that it is too late for our country now.

I fear what is about to happen will be beyond ones imagination and that hope is only a lingering part of ones imagination.

I think about the young people today and their hopes and dreams and feel forlorn. We must pray that the harvest that is underway today brings as many as it can to God. Please pray for its success. Shad says, AMEN!AMEN!
