It seems to me that God has been pushed from His throne in the eyes of
most of the population of America, including that of much of assumed
Christendom. This desacralization has been coming for decades and
finally is to the point that elected now is someone who stands not for
God and good, but for what he thinks the people need or want, even
though the populace has spoken their concerns regarding many of his
policies. It has happened more than one presidency in a row now, but at
this juncture in time, it is more evident than usual, given the changed
being fostered by the government, who now believes that it runs the
people rather than the original intent of government, which is to SERVE
the people and be monitored by the people. By their very choice of
presidents and other officials, the people of the United states have
created a desacralized view of the numinous aspects of Who God is. By
their very choice, they have proclaimed Obama as the next best thing and
some may suggest, even better… but to sacralize and holify a human
being is to desacralize in their eyes the very God Who created that
human being and wants to know him better, to guide and change him. To
sacralize Obama, Bush, or anyone else, is to idolize them. To do so is
therefore to remove God from His throne and replace Him with that
person.
Advertisements and products touting varying idols and
gods as their symbologies reign the media to the point that unless you
don’t have television or used the internet, you are bombarded with the
idolatry of others thousands of times a day. Goddess shaving products
and similarly-named perfumes are clear examples. Is it any wonder that
the power of subliminal messaging has shown itself, sadly, to be
effective here? They attempt to desacralized God by their very presence,
seeming to think that He will all of a sudden not be sacred and holy
anymore; that His very numinousness will just disappear, which will
never happen… but in the United states, many observers would think it as
true. They would agree with the philosophers, atheists, and polytheists
who want to proclaim that the God of the Bible is dead. Thing is… He’s
not.
That which was once considered morally incorrect is now
considered nearly mainstream, and seems to be getting stronger as more
and more people buy into the lie that living a sinful lifestyle should
be a right, voted into law; that this lifestyle is not only “okay” but
is natural; that there are people in government who want to teach the
how-tos of homosexuality to our children as an alternative to the
God-ordained, morally correct view of sexual relations within marriage,
and marriage between a man and woman. This is to desacralize the gifts
of sexuality, marriage, relationship, parenthood, leadership, and the
law.
When will God-fearing Americans stand up? When will we get
to the point where we say, “desacralizing the Godhead is no longer
acceptable.” How much will be accepted by professors of Christ? How much
will be too much?
