favor  (Leviticus  26:1-13);  instead  they  became  the

            subject  of  HIS  retribution  (Leviticus  26:14-46).    Since
            faithful  Christians  are  grafted  into  the  vine  of  Israel
            (Romans 11:24), America is subject to GOD’s same rules

            for favor and retribution.  Thus, should our disobedience
            continue, we  can expect that America will  continue to

            seek  “racial”  healing,  but  it  will  not  come,  not  from
            secular  programs  or  from  Christian  prayers  alone.

            Prayers  without  obedience  are  never  enough.    The
            future of America hinges on Christians taking the lead.

            It  is  long  past  the  time  that  we  awaken  the  “Sleeping
                    40
            Giant”    within  us  and  live  out  the  reconciliation  that
            CHRIST has already provided.

            At this moment in history, “racial” sins are the root that

            feeds many of the abominations to which we are falling
            prey. As Christians, we must stand firm on the solid Rock

            of  CHRIST  and  live  out  the  “racial”  reconciliation  and
            healing that  HE  has  already provided.  We must  make

            our  church  bodies  into  a  refuge  where  illegitimate
            precepts  of  “race”  have  no  meaning.    We  must  all

            fellowship  in  CHRIST’s  abounding  Love  without
            distinction  for  skin  color,  but  rather  look  into  one
            another’s heart for CHRIST and the fruits of the SPIRIT

            that we can share.  For it is clear that unity, justice, and
            true  healing  among  humankind;  no  matter  skin  tone,
