haters of God. They call on God in public, but in the
secret chambers of their hearts they fall before the idols
of power and fame: "This people honoureth me with
their lips, but their heart is far from me" (Mark 7:6
Kjv).
They are not righteous, and they are not acceptable
to God. Their lukewarmness is an abomination to the
Lord. He will spew them out of His mouth. They sit as
leaders of government, professing to be followers of the
Son of God—but, in truth, are followers of their own
lusts and interests. If they were truly the Lord's, they
would lead the nation to repentance! If they were truly
the children of God, they would resist the proud and
wicked and would call for a return to righteousness.
They would not be pursuing power by compromising their
morals and ethics. They are nearly all power-corrupted.
Where are the nation's leaders who profess, "I am
on the Lord's side!"? Where do they take their stand?
Has the world heard their testimony? Are they satisfied to
be secret believers? Will they bring a nation back to God
through compromise and accommodation with wicked
men? Will our President stand up and boldly declare his
allegiance to his Lord at all costs? If not, God will begin
now to judge the backsliding leaders of government!
Their folly will bring upon them and their followers the
complete wrath of God.
God has warned all government leaders of this land
about what He will do to those who sell out to the idols
of power and prestige! He brings the proud down. He
humbles the mighty so that their memories are cast
down in the mire. So will it be with all others who have
begun in the Spirit but who now live in the flesh. Their
counsel will bring them down in defeat and shame.
God's Word has some very sharp reminders for all
government leaders, politicians, and candidates for of-
