In this Farwell Address to the Nation, George Washington stated that religion and morality are two indispensable supports to good government and a peaceful society. Washington referred to them as ""great pillars of human happiness."" He stated that no one could be called a patriot ""who should labor to subvert them."" But look around. In all our institutionsâeducational, governments at all levels, our courts, and the mediaâsuch things are criticized. Christians are marginalized. We are called weak, stupid, uneducated, bigoted, intolerant, etc. Christians are told to keep their mouths shut and their opinions to themselves. God has been scrubbed from our schools, our playgrounds, the workplace, the halls of justice, and government councils. As a result, our cities are burning and our kids are dying from drug abuse, suicide, and from violence at the hands of other kids. What will it take to recognize that then you remove God from society, you get a godless society. I wrote the book Salt and Light because I am deeply concerned about the kind of America my grandchildren will grow up in. Will they enjoy the blessings of liberty and the opportunity for prosperity that accompany a society built on God's social order? Or will they live under the oppression and tyranny of a statist government that inevitably and invariably grows from social chaos? We still have a choice. Salt and Light is a practical guide to ensuring the former, thus avoiding the latter.

Zustand: Hervorragend | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | The number of Americans attending Christian worship services is falling and those identifying with world religions, such as Islam or Buddhism, is on the rise, along with those claiming to be atheists. Against this sobering backdrop, we have to ask the question: Is the Church on the move, or is the Church on the run? It's time for Christians to take action on Jesus' commands to be salt and light. While we have all read the words, few of us fully understand what it means to bring those words to life. In Salt and Light, you'll see exactly what Jesus meant when he said you are the salt of the earth and you are the light of the world. This book is the call to action the Church needs in this time of crisis. In Salt and Light you will learn: - The true Christian history of America's founding and why it's more important today than ever - 3 specific ways Jesus intended his followers to be the "salt of the earth" - What exactly it means to be light to a dark world - 4 methods Jesus demonstrated for being light to those around you - 3 things that keep you from being salt and light to others, and how to eliminate them - How to function as a preservative and disinfectant - 8 proven tools for enduring attacks on your faith - How God uses ordinary people to make an extraordinary difference for His kingdom - Lessons from Gideon's life that you probably never thought of, and how they apply to you today > Salt and Light is a Christian call to action. If you're on God's team, Salt and Light shows you how to not only get in the game but be effective in the strength you have right now. Seller Inventory # 32474980/1
