God's
Designs for Civilization Seminar
Calling
American Christians to Repent, Pray and Reclaim our God Given
Rights
This
is an interactive seminar with worksheets to help you discover
essential truths about the relationship of your faith to your
social and political responsibilities. The truths revealed will
provide you with practical solutions to the current threats to
your God given rights to life, liberty and ownership of private
property.
The
premise of this seminar is that, because of our sin, America,
during these early years of the 21st century, faces the the wrath
of God as experienced by ancient Judah in the 6th century B.C.
Therefore, concerned Christians need to take specific actions
to avoid His wrath and work together to return our nation to justice
and righteousness consistent with our Christian heritage.
The
nature of the crisis is set forth in the letter titled
America's
Crisis - Your Opportunity

Personal
benefits of this teaching
Whether
you are a natural born American or an immigrant, it is easy to
take for granted the freedoms we still enjoy. However, these freedoms
and all the prosperity, safety and comfort that we inherited came
at great price. They can only be maintained if "we the people"
work to keep them as current realities.
Thomas
Jefferson, primary author of the Declaration of Independence and
our third President, made this profound statement: "If a nation
expects to be ignorant -- and free -- in a state of civilization,
it expects what never was and never will be."
The
God given freedoms of all Americans are threatened. Your willingness
to be informed and take action in your community to remove these
threats is the only thing that guarantees these freedoms for future
generations.
If
you want to enjoy the freedom of speech, unrestricted travel,
safety from criminal acts and justice in the courts, protection
of your private property, the right to worship when and where
you choose, the right to work or own a business without bureaucratic
hassles and only pay reasonable taxes, which are used for just
causes, you must take personal responsibility to see that these
God given rights are returned and maintained.
The
God's Designs for Civilization Seminar will provide you with a
tangible means of realizing these goals. It will show you how
you can enlist the aid of others in your community to throw off
the forces of darkness and evil which are rapidly taking control
of every area of our society.
The
timeliness of the God's Designs for Civilization Seminar
What
do you suppose life was like in Sodom and Gomorrah the day before
God rained down His judgment upon them? They were taken by surprise.
Most Americans are in the same mindset today
God
sent many prophets to warn the ancient Jews that He would not
tolerate forever their breaking His covenants, filling the land
with innocent blood and neglecting the widows, orphans and weak
in their midst. They refused to repent, so God then sent the Babylonians
to destroy Solomon's temple and kill most of the people and finally
to lead the survivors into captivity. There are astounding parallels
of their situation to present day America. Our country does not
have automatic immunity to God's wrath.
The
Jewish historian, Josephus, wrote that, as the Roman army closed
in on Jerusalem in 68 A.D., many people were having parties on
the roof tops of houses built on the city's wall. During the siege,
tens of thousands died from the famine or were brutally murdered
by warring factions among their own people. Those who survived
the mayhem inside the city were slain or enslaved by the Romans
when the city finally fell in 70 A.D.
When
God pours out His judgments on a people, He does not hold back.
If you have any question that America is ripe for such a judgment,
you need this seminar. If you believe we are ripe for judgment,the
God's Designs for Civilization Seminar and book give practical
ways as to how we, the professing Christians of America, can avoid
a similar judgment. If you do not take the responsibility to work
to avoid His judgments, who will?
