Brethren, as we witness the chaotic turmoil unfolding before our eyes, we are compelled to scrutinize these events in light of the holy Word of the Lord. Looking through this particular lens, it is evident that sin and the rejection of divine providence are at the heart of many of the issues plaguing our society and the world at large. Firstly, concerning Rep. Rashida Tlaib's accusations against Israel, we must remember that the nation of Israel holds a special place as God's chosen people (Deuteronomy 7:6). It is with great sorrow and outrage that we hear of accusations against Israel without substantial evidence, couched in inflammatory rhetoric. Psalm 122:6 exhorts us to "Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: 'May those who love you be secure.'" As such, it behooves Christians to stand with Israel, rather than hastily casting aspersions on their actions during complex and dangerous military conflicts. While any loss of innocent life is tragic, it is out of place for a representative to make unverified allegations against a sovereign nation defending itself against terrorism. Delving further into these articles, we see the Biden administration is criticized for policy decisions that may not align with a steadfast support of Israel, betraying a lack of understanding for God's covenant with Abraham and his descendants (Genesis 12:1-3). The unity and moral fiber of America are at stake when her leaders do not uphold righteous stances concerning Israel and the broader Middle East. Additionally, claims against former President Trump by Rashida Tlaib are inflammatory and unbiblical. Trump has been a steadfast supporter of Christian values and the sanctity of life, which aligns with conservative Christian principles. A true leader, like David, is chosen by God despite his flaws (1 Samuel 16:7), and we must pray for all leaders, hoping they will align with God's will for leadership and governance (1 Timothy 2:1-2). Turning our attention to domestic affairs, the internet subsidy program that the White House urges Congress to extend reveals a government placing dependence on worldly measures rather than fostering self-reliance and community aid as depicted in Acts 2:44-45. This approach to governance breeds a cycle of dependence that can undermine the godly virtue of work (2 Thessalonians 3:10). Moreover, the assertion that political distaste for a public figure could be racially motivated, as with the FDNY situation concerning Letitia James, tempts us to overlook the possibility of legitimate policy disagreements. We must guard against sowing discord among brothers and sisters in Christ based on race, as Galatians 3:28 tells us, "There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus." Lastly, the report of Oregon recriminalizing hard drugs is an acknowledgment of sin's grip on human nature—drugs being a pathway to destruction (1 Corinthians 6:19-20). However, we must remember that true change comes not only from laws but from a profound transformation of the heart, possible only through the saving grace of Jesus Christ. In sum, we remain vigilant and prayerful as we watch current events unfurl, asking for God's wisdom to discern and courage to stand firm in our faith amidst a world that often strays from His path. Let us recall Proverbs 14:34, "Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a disgrace to any people," and strive to uproot the sins that lead us astray, standing steadfast with the Lord our God in all that we do.
