When God saves, he saves. He doesn't go part way and expect the person he's saving to go the other part way. He doesn't throw a life preserver. He jumps in the water and actually saves the person.

No it doesn't mean that. It also doesn't mean we complain or show discontentment with what God has provided. The apostles teach us to pray for all things and to be thankful in everything. Jesus says to take no thought for your life because God will take care of us. Politicians do not follow that path. Do they? Do they teach us that way? No, so how is following them a good idea?
Trust me, we don't all like Trump either. As a matter of fact we will trade you, we'll even through in the Red Wings.And a federal leader who isn't a narcissist.
Good night.Never said anything about following politicians. Nor about not being satisfied with what God provides us. All I was trying to say is that one can be a patriot and proud of their country.
Does God not raise up kings and make kings fall?
God Bless you, have a good night.
The Bible doesn't teach that you should hate your country. The premiering the OP is an absurdity.
I believe the OP may have gotten those sentiments from some other threads centering on the 4th of July celebrations.
Which is nonsense, even when Israel and Judea were on the brink of invasion and conquest by divine Oracle's over at least a hundred years, God never told them to lose their loyalty to the core that was their nation. The OP is an absurdity.That is right there were people that said that we should hate our country and pretty much hate everything if we are Christians.
Reverend Wright.I have not seen anyone here who said rhat they hate their country. That claim is false.
But the Lord God says that you shall have no other God(s) before Him. And I respectfully suggest that you read the Book of Jeremiah to see what happened to Israel when they ignored this commandment.
God promised to take care of us. Correct?
Why then do we need to make america great again? Is Gods provision not enough for us? Are we not saying that God has forsaken us? After all, its He who supplies our needs, not man, so when we are discontent its God who we are discontent with. So what gives us the right to be discontent with what God has provided?
You wanted scripture to say "hate your country"? Well you won't find any. Or none that uses that phrase anyway. But there is scripture warning against trusting leaders.This thread is for those that think we should hate our own country. I know a lot of you go by the Bible alone so if you would kindly show me the chapter and verse where we are told to hate our country. I do not desire your interpretation but the exact book, chapter, and verse please. Thank you
