Pslam 146:3 “Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.”

In Dr. James Dobson’s April Newsletter (drjamesdobson.org/about/april-2014), he rightfully points out that “our nation is in serious moral decline, and that it is sliding relentlessly away from biblical values.”  After detailing several examples of such decline, Dr. Dobson states the following:

“The question is, what do we do about it?  Would a more conservative political party be able to turn the country around?  Probably not, although I would support one as a private individual.  Could a man or woman of character set us on the right path?  Possibly, but the change would be superficial and temporary unless the people rise up to demand it.”

Dr. Dobson is right.  The solution to our nation’s problems is not an organization or a person.  It is not a political party or a prince.  It is not an orator, commentator, or entertainer.  It is not a news organization or an election.  As American Christians hold out hope that some human construct can save us from the perilous path that we are on, we are dangerously distracted by a false savior “in whom there is no help.”  PLEASE PRAY THAT AMERICAN CHRISTIANS WOULD RELINQUISH OUR HOPE IN ANYTHING OTHER THAN CHRIST TO RESCUE OUR NATION.
