America Accept the Truth, Repent, and Save Our Country

Dr. Derek Lawrence-Harper

Description

This powerful book provides a multitude of information. Anyone who loves America, reading the bible, researching history, and gaining knowledge should read this book. The author is appealing to readers to study and research the facts and make individual changes, treat all people respectfully, and to love our neighbor as ourselves as commanded in the bible. The author provides references from the Bible, Various Books, Apocrypha, and Informational YouTube Channels. The author believes in using scholarly resources however many scholarly resources are restrictive because of the limitations placed by educational scholars. Insomuch, the author was open but objective to research non-scholarly resources along with scholarly resources if the information discovered aligned consistently. This book will discuss the author’s love for America, Bible Prophecy, Biblical Genealogy, the Lost and Scattered Tribes of Judah and Israel, Racism, Prejudice, Oppression, Respecter of Persons, and Various Scriptures including The Book of Mormon. Furthermore, the author realizes stating truths can cause people to feel uncomfortable and create a potential backlash from Bible Traditionalist, White Supremacist, Black Supremacist, Major Media, and The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. However, the most important element of this book is identifying our need for a savior and teaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ for those who are ready to receive the truth.
God’s timing is not our timing, but the bible is clear that judgment will come. America will be judged for its misdeeds one day. It is the author’s hope that people will re-read the bible and encourage people to read this book to know that the author’s goal is to first save souls and second save our country. Ideally, we need to be in a financial position to help others. To resolve problems in this country we must be honest and accept the truth to move forward. Most Americans including the author need all their income to pay bills and have means to enjoy themselves. The true minority in America is the rich who do not live paycheck to paycheck but have either generational wealth or maximized their talents to become prosperous. Hopefully, anyone who became rich did not compromise their morality or abuse, misuse, or oppress others for their personal gain. If so, pray that they repent. Our country is in trouble as Compromised Christianity, Atheism, Agnosticism, and Satanic influence is on the rise while Bible Believing Christians are declining, getting older, and are dying off. It has been said that those who ignore history repeat history. Dr. Martin Luther King once stated that truth suppressed to earth shall rise again. The author is here to talk about the truth that is rising in our time now.

PREFACE
America is the author’s home, and he loves his country. The foundation of our country stated that we are one nation under God. However, America’s application of biblical principles in America is a matter of dispute. Select information about America’s history has been hidden, distorted, changed, and erased. The Pandemic of 2020 restricted our freedom and installed fear in some individuals. 2 Timothy 1:7 stated that God hath not given us the spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. If God did not give us the spirit of fear, we can assuredly know that it comes from the Devil/Satan/Lucifer through his demonic demon/angels. The bible stated that God has given us the spirit of power, of love, and of a sound mind however the devil seeks to steal our power, kill our love, and destroy our minds. Satan has infiltrated America in a multitude of areas. Henceforth, the author’s challenge to everyone who reads this book to pray, ponder, research, and have an open mind because some of the contents of this book may challenge your traditional thinking and personal bel iefs.
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) reminds us that the First Amendment to the United States Constitution says that everyone in the U.S. has the right to practice his or her own religion, or no religion. The amendment was designed to guarantee separation of church and state to keep the government out of religion. However, churches who receive tax exempt status potentially allow the government at its discretion to place restrictions on a church’s freedom of speech. Therefore, ministers, pastors, reverends, priests, bishops, apostles, rabbis, and any other title of religious authority’s sermons may avoid controversial or political issues. Henceforth, the author will discuss issues that are often avoided in church ser mons.
The author believes that the infiltration of the devil into the American churches has weakened the influence of the church. Satan targets church leaders tempting them to commit gross sin to damage the churches influence upon the community, reduce church membership, and keep the non-religious citizens from joining the church. Select churches chose to offset the negative damage to their religious institution’s respect and reputation by accepting worldly perspectives and ignore things the bible clearly opposes. A church’s survival needs membership, tithes, and donations from its members to pay bills and in wealthy churches to live in excess. The author is not attacking wealthy churches, but he is claiming that he believes some wealthy churches will avoid certain topics that may scare or turn members away. If what the author says is true about churches avoiding certain issues, that is a form of compromised Christianity. Unfortunately, America has a history of tunnel vision, meaning that certain people have limited perspectives by focusing on what they want and ignoring or disregarding other asp ects.
God’s timing is not our timing, but the bible is clear that judgment will come. America will be judged for its misdeeds one day. It is the author’s hope that people will re-read the bible and encourage people to read this book to know that the author’s goal is to first save souls and second save our country. Ideally, we need to be in a financial position to help others. To resolve problems in this country we must be honest and accept the truth to move forward. Most Americans including the author need all their income to pay bills and have means to enjoy themselves. The true minority in America is the rich who do not live paycheck to paycheck but have either generational wealth or maximized their talents to become prosperous. Hopefully, anyone who became rich did not compromise their morality or abuse, misuse, or oppress others for their personal gain. If so, pray that they repent. Our country is in trouble as Compromised Christianity, Atheism, Agnosticism, and Satanic influence is on the rise while Bible Believing Christians are declining, getting older, and are dying off. It has been said that those who ignore history repeat history. Dr. Martin Luther King once stated that truth suppressed to earth shall rise again. The author is here to talk about the truth that is rising in our time now. With the internet it is easy to search for information about different topics. We must use discernment to determine what is fact and what is fiction. Our great country has a history of suppressing truth to maintain a desired perception by those who benefit most from the desired perception. Every topic has an opposing viewpoint, and it is unlikely that everyone will have the same viewpoint. The author believes if our country will turn back to biblical roots per what the bible says, accept the truth, repent, forgive others, forgive self, reverse the curse, and follow the Lord we can save our great na tion.
History has examples of great and powerful nations with a feared military such as the Greek Empire and Roman Empire who fell after complacency and immorality crept into their societies along with other factors. One of the most powerful foundations of the United States was its moral values. In the past individuals have been guilty of disregarding moral values taught by Christianity and the freedom of religion. In truth, the United States has an ugly history of prejudice, racism, and injustice. However, the United States also has a beautiful history especially during times of crisis to be helping neighbors, charitable, and compassionate. During times of crisis, I have seen people disregard the differences for the common good. If we as a country can show compassion during times of crisis, why not do it all the time because that is what God wants from us. Therefore, we need to first look towards the Lord for help and He will work through people and things that can be effective in the lives of believers. Insomuch, if we play the blame game, belittle the opposing side, speak hatred on others, or think politicians and money will fix our problems we need to recheck our his tory.
There are good and bad people in our country of all so-called races and ethnicities. The author believes that good people outweigh the bad and there is hope for our country to gain strength during turmoil. If bad people outweighed our good people in our country, we still have enough righteous people at this time for God to hear us. The bible teaches us that Sodom and Gomorrah were not destroyed because of their sin but because they did not have ten righteous people living there. The bible also teaches us that after the reluctant Jonah preached to the city of Nineveh that the people repented, and their city was not destroyed because of God’s grace and mercy toward the people being willing to listen and change. Today, our cities represent a modern-day Nineveh as well as Sodom and Gomorrah because people openly sin against God but fortunately our cities have righteous bible believing Christians. Nevertheless, we have Christians that compromise the faith by accepting things that are contrary to what the bible states fulfilling the prophecy in 2 Timothy chapter 4 where people will flock to teachers who will overlook their sin, permit their lust, and lack teaching/preaching sound doct rine.
The focus of this book consists of leading people to Christ by first addressing unresolved issues in our country that are dismissed and ignored by the mainstream population. Leviticus 19:18 in the Old Testament as well as the books of Matthew, Mark, Luke, Romans, Galatians, and James each mentions how we are commanded to Love our neighbors as ourselves. None of the chapters says love your neighbors except if they are so-called black, so-called Jew, so-called Native American, or any other ethnicity or race. God wants us to love our neighbors as ourselves and from the author’s observation people make exceptions to fit their personal viewpoint. The author makes a strong effort to live his life according to the standards of the bible contrary to how he used to live and tried to choose what he would follow and make the bible fit him. The author still is not perfect, but he is better than he used to be and improving each day regarding morality and spirituality. The author recognizes there are groups and classes of people in Ame
