I'm genuinely curious, and I'm not intending to mock you, I apologize if you believe so. Rest assured I have no interest in mocking you, I reemphasize at this point, I'm genuinely curious. Should you chose to take a leap of faith, and share your vision. I'll be around tomorrow to read it. In the mean time, I wish you a kindly evening. I do hope you'll take the opportunity to answer the questions.
I think we need a revival. There was a book that came out a few years ago called, "Revival or We Die". It was a great book. Easy read, I recommend getting it as it is replete with examples of revivals throughout time and what caused them. So in a word, I would say a call to faith. Not shallow faith, but resolute, orthodox Christian faith. Revival has historically had a massive impact on the culture. Crime went down, volunteering went up. All sorts of positive changes from revival. How does revival happen? We have to first recognize we have a need for it. That starts with the recognition that we are sinful. As individuals and as a nation. I believe there is a lot of perversion in the US right now. For example, the US is the largest importer of sex trafficking. Of course, you will notice that the politicians never bring that horrible horrible thing up. Why? Many of them are doing it themselves! Are you getting a picture of why I don't think politics can solve the problem? It's not that politicians are powerless, it is that they only care about themselves! They just care about the next election. They want to keep their power. So there is this understanding between democrats and republicans that some issues are taboo. They will not touch them even though they are often the worst things happening in our nation. We need people to pray for revival. We need your regular everyday people to get on their knees to pray for a fresh taste of God's Spirit. If enough people do that, then we will see change. And it will really change things from the inside out. If even 25% of fervent orthodox Christians prayed for revival, we would start a revival that would change the world.
