America Kissed God Goodbye — E.A. Johnston

America’s God-Honoring Past in the 1950s

There was still some hope for America in the 1950s at that time. We were still a nation grateful to God for the victory of World War two. We were thankful to God for the material prosperity That was available to the average working family who saw the reality of home ownership in the 1950s.

There was still such a thing as shame in society and a sense of decorum in the land. Women went out public with hats on their heads and white gloves on their hands and their Dresses came down to their ankles.

The only ones wearing tattoos back then were sailors and marriage was between a man and a woman. We had blue laws Against sin and dry counties that wouldn't sell booze. There was a moral code in public broadcasting that prohibited nudity and indecent behavior in the media.

The Loss of Social Boundaries and Biblical Vision

The citizens of America had boundaries that were set by society back then and those Boundaries would all be challenged and broken within a decade. The churches in America back then still preached a God-centered Gospel that honored God and saved men and God was still afoot in the land.

Would send the revivals to our churches. But my Bible says in Proverbs 29 18 Where there is no vision the people perish but he that keepeth the law. Happy as he. But as we left the urban serenity of the 1950s we entered the turbulent 60s and all hell broke loose as this nation became a lawless nation.

America’s Rejection of Public Prayer

That's when America kissed God. Goodbye. And as I tell him I'm as it today friends when America kissed God. Goodbye we kissed God. Goodbye in 1962 when the Supreme Court ruled against public prayer in school.

When I was a little boy in the 1950s children would hold hands Stand in a circle then we would bow our heads and clasp our hands and reverence to God. And I the receipt recite the Lord's Prayer or say the following prayer which went like this Almighty God we acknowledge our Dependence upon thee and we beg thy blessings upon us our parents our teachers and our country.

That's what kids prayed back then and God was pleased to answer those prayers as he blessed the country of America. Back in public school in those days. We had prayer and reverence to God instead of mass shootings and bloodstains on our walls in our schools.

Roe v. Wade and the Legalization of Abortion

But our schools became a killing field when in 1962 we kissed God. Goodbye as the Supreme Court ruled that prayer in public school was unconstitutional. The 1962 case of angle versus a fatality ushered in a change in society as we gradually outlawed outlawed God in the land and then came 1973 with Roe vs. Wade that made it legal to kill unborn babies.

That's when we started butchering babies. Then we became a bloody nation as well as well as a rebellious one and then we finally became a perverted nation by legalizing and promoting homosexuality and Transgenders.

Cultural Rebellion, Narcotics, and the Church’s Compromise

Now we legalized narcotics as well as the wheels have come completely off this doom nation of ours. Throughout all this turbulence and rebellion in society the church has quit influencing the world and Compromised with the world by letting the world influence the church.

The church lost its power and influence upon society as it conformed herself to the world and sold out To a pagan society as well. The church began to preach a perverted gospel. We live in a day of an apostate church inside a godless nation.

A Nation Butchering Babies and a Church Butchering Souls

The nation's a large butcher shop the nation butchers babies and the church's butchers souls. This nation races its way to a cliff of destruction and hell as the church is hiding. Look the other way. The sad reality is when America kissed God goodbye God kissed America.

Goodbye and left us to our own devices. Heaven help us all.
