Hi Joshua, My view is that there has never been a Christian country in the world anywhere, at any time. The truth is that very few actually take God seriously, which makes a true earthly Christian nation impossible. The spiritual, eternal kingdom of God, made up of born again believers is dispersed throughout the world and while unified by the Holy Spirit will not be clearly visible as a unified nation until Jesus returns. The pride and love of money so prevalent in todays world blinds men so they cannot see where they are going, or even fear the eventual result of their folly. The Lord, in order to smarten up some, according to my understanding, will shortly be destroying 1/4 of the world's population. It it so very grievious that our Creator is forced by His love of man into such extremes in order to spare those few who will thereby repent and turn to Him. (The majority even then will not turn away from their evil.) When you consider that He Himself died a horrible death upon the cross in order to save man from an eternity in torment you can be sure that He will indeed take whatever drastic steps are necessary to get man's attention. Those who reject the Lord will never know freedom; the Devil has most so confused that they think bondage to his ways constitute freedom. That is the ultimate in mind control. Thank God that He in His mercy sets us free. Forever free. The Lord's blessing be upon you Joshua, Your brother, Bryon
