churches fill up every sunday in america but the country does not reflect what the bible says of god fearing god loving people. The country is total contradiction of what god would consider a righteous society.

~ Narrow and straight is the path to heaven... and broad and wide is the gates of hell.
People in a religion or faith are not allowing enough caution in their lives as per the daily behavior... throwing caution to the wind... and not having any alternate thoughts against the enemy's deceptions... nor have they taken the time to mature in the written Word of God.

You have it wrong. Sure there are a lot of Christians in America but this country is a melting pot of various religions from around the world. All of the major religions are represented here along with a lot of cults and sects that wouldn't have the freedom to worship any other place in the world. There are also agnostics and atheists - so our country reflects that mix - not just the Christian viewpoints. That's why this nation doesn't necessarily reflect what could be considered a Christian society.

no longer all the gospels were written by potential of Jews. Luke change right into a gentile. The early Christians were no longer pagans who worshipped Jesus. The trinity change into no longer made up yet. there have been many faux messiahs, so the early Christians were no different than the different gullible Jew who fell for the faux messiahs claims. Christians are regularly pagans now, so if a Jew believes Jesus he's likewise a pagan. Jesus has no longer something to do with Judaism, a useless ringer for Buddha has no longer something to do with Christianity. To trust Jesus is the messiah is to reject G-d because G-d made it sparkling interior the Tanakh(previous testomony) who the messiah is and what he will do. Jesus did no longer something, infact he dousnt even come on the point of installation the outline of the messiah. It even says interior the gospel that Jesus broke the sabbath, insulted his mom and allow a woman contact his legs. extremely obvious he's not the messiah.

Because the American people do not really "govern" the government. It is really important that other countries know that. Most American's are really upset about the things our country is doing. The people who are in church (I am NOT one of them) believe that we should respect the government, because they are appointed by G/D. If it were up to the majority of American people, we would stand by what it says on our statue of liberty. We would also not let the almighty dollar be motivation for war. Other countries, like Iraq are far more spiritual and devoted. Many Americans view them as extremest, and do not understand why their culture is the way it is. It is our own ignorance. It is not righteous. It's a shame.

But this is strange. The American people are seemed to get protection from God they believe but they disobey Him every turn. God has declared, when their ancestors honoured and worshipped Him all their descendants will be blessed generation after generation. That was the promised but whether they will go to meet God or not it will depend on their repentance. The Americans are attacked but they rise up. Or the people will find way to protect themselves with the help of God. Look at the other nations when they are down, it takes them generation to rebuild unless they have the help of the American. Doesn't this strange?

Luckily you are not the judge. I am coming from Europe where the most of the people "belong" to the church, but they do not pray, go to church etc. I found Christ in the U.S.A. My actions do not reflect the teachings of Jesus either, but I love Him in every circumstance.
I feel sorry for you if you have been treated wrong. I love America and Americans are one of the most generous and loving type of people I have ever met in my life. Even people who do not believe the same way I do.

Because even for americans it is hard to not love the world and the things of the world like Jesus teaches us. It is quite sad that the 14%of non believers make up the majority of those who are willing to spread their opinion. I think that the Chrisitans are chosing to turn the other cheek too often when it comes to the countries rules/statutes/laws ect. Sad as it is too many people are all about lip service and not actual service to the Lord.

John 17:3;
This is life eternal to know thee, the only true God and Jesus Christ whom thou hast sent.
In a poll for America, who is God. John 20:17; The God and Father of Jesus that is the God and Father of all who believe.
Is Jesus the first creation created in image of God, and Adam in their image, and we are born in sin as offsprings of Adam, needing to be saved along with the heavens and the earth?

It would appear that peer pressure requires a commitment to "believe" however, most folks are there to learn so they can decide what they actually believe. It becomes complicated and drawn out with various issues clouding the quest. The easiest way to deal with this search is to accept the way that is in motion at the time or simply to leave.
These groups truly don't understand the old scriptural writings.

Because the Bible's God, ruler of the universe, runs counter to the American Constitution. He does not support democracy (He rules;Psalms 2,89,110: the King is Yawweh's son), freedom of religion (no other gods allowed) or freedom of speech (no blasphemy). The Bible's god, many believe, will throw the majority into a lake of fire.
