The kingdom is about peace, righteousness, and joy in the spirit. America is about division, strife and materialism.

I agree."the whole world", with few exceptions, is under the power of the prince of the air.
not just America or the untied states.
Yes. We in america are materialistic. This is unwise.the USA is one of the best countries to be born into though it still falls so very short of the kingdom of God.
Agreed. But, it is Christians that need to repent, not just in America but all over the world."the whole world", with few excepti14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.ons, is under the power of the prince of the air.

Our citizenship is in heaven.Agreed. But, it is Christians that need to repent, not just in America but all over the world.

That's not just your opinion,The Church imho, is too conformed to the world.
Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Yes, it may be.America may be just like Nineveh.
I had that same realization.Billy Graham said --- "I preached Americanism too much….I began to realize we are not the Kingdom of God." (1999)
Jesus is not American. HE IS DEVINE.The kingdom is about peace, righteousness, and joy in the spirit. America is about division, strife and materialism.

I have a hard time saying that God blessed america. Either way, look at how carnal politics are. The apostle paul rebuked the carnal corinthians for being divided spiritually, he also said we should be separate from this world, thereby perfecting holiness. What would paul say about republicans and democrats?Jesus is not American. HE IS DEVINE.
We're Christians (sinner's saved) first.
American ideologies do not always conform to Christ.
Founded on religious freedom, America has been blessed immensely by the Hand of God.
Pray for a revival that people turn to Christ. People need Christ.
Pray that believers turn back to God, and the unsaved find Jesus as their Savior.
God Bless America. IN GOD WE TRUST.
God's will be done, forever and always.
Same as Jesus, and Yochanan the immerser, and the Prophets would say:What would paul say about republicans and democrats?
Same as Jesus, and Yochanan the immerser, and the Prophets would say:
Turn to YHWH (repent); stop robbing people; stop oppressing people; take care of the poor and the widows INSTEAD of creating widows and orphans;
stop killing; stop promoting and propheting(sic) from the drug trade (illegal and legal); enforce righteous laws with justice and not bribes.
