Exodus 20:12-13
It looks like I will only be able to cover two of these “commandments” at a time. In this post I will address “honoring your mother and father” and “shall not murder”. Here the Christians are truly worse than the “godless”.
Number 5: Honoring our parents. Sure the US has two days out of the year called Mother’s day and Father’s day were the citizens of the US honor their parents. But that is not enough to eliminate the punishment of 4 generations. This concept requires much more. In the textual study guide, the NIV comments that to honor is to do more than remember our parents on two special days. It lists three things that must be done: prize highly, show respect, and obey! Today, one of the greatest crimes in the US against the elderly. One of the major contributors to this problem is that adult Americans leave their parents to live alone. We stick them in nursing homes were abuse can occur. We allow children and teenagers to be disrespectful to parents and grandparents. Worse, we do not even have a national Hate Crime Bill that enforces tough penalties to those who cause damage to our older generation. The US breaks this commandment from YHWH daily.
Number 6: Do not murder. The US fails this one by the fact that we are at war with two nations. What more can I say. I can say that Christians should be the first to protest these atrocities. Yet instead, they are the ones most ardently pushing for more! Do I need to remind you of our recent nominee for VP who claimed that the war in Iraq was in accordance with the will of YHWH? Should I point out who is screaming for war against Iran and North Korea? Do you really want me to remind you that it is Christians who want the blood of Islamic fundamentalist?
Again, these two commandments alone doom the US to four generations of punishment from YHWH. If we were to “clean up our act”, right away, it would be 160 years before YHWH would “Bless the USA” again! And we can be certain that it will take this long, because remember – YHWH is unchanging (Malachi 3:6, James 1:17).
