Quote
"Because you have despised His word and trust in perverseness and oppression, and say thereon ... therefore this iniquity will be to you as a breach ready to fall, swell out in a high wall, whose breaking cometh suddenly at an instance,'" Moore said, quoting Isaiah 30:12-13. Then he added: "Sounds a little bit like the Pentagon, whose breaking came suddenly at an instance, doesn't it?"
Moore, continued, "If you think that's coincidence, if you go to verse 25, 'there should be up on every high mountain and upon every hill rivers and streams of water in the day of the great slaughter when the towers will fall.' You know, we've suffered a lot in this country, maybe, just maybe, because we've distanced ourselves from the one that has it within his hands to heal this land."
Later in the same speech, Moore suggested God was upset at the United States because "we legitimize sodomy" and "legitimize abortion."

The psychological significance goes beyond his personal theological ideas. It's a case of people (voters) being disgusted with government intrusion into our culture under pretense of "doing the will of the People". It's not the will of the People, it's the will of LEFTISTS that is being forced on private citizens.

A vote for Moore is a vote that says, "Enough government intrusion disguised as 'help', we'd rather have a government that respects the individual and traditions more than leftist values"!!

I don't know about 9-11 being a punishment from God.  Only He knows.  But I do agree that this country has been going downhill morally for  long time.  I say it started when prayer was removed from public schools.  The door was opened for atheists and others to destroy morality and decency under the guise of tolerance.  Instead of letting atheists and others have the right to not worship God if they so chose,  they have been allowed to force their unbelief upon those who do believe.  Believers are being told they cannot practice their faith because it offends those who do not believe.  The courts in siding with nonbelievers over abortion and gay "marriage" have all but established a national religion, something I thought was forbidden in the Constitution. 

A revival is sorely needed in this country.  Otherwise, I believe this country will be ruined.  Sodom and Gomorrah, the Sequel.

Read Johnathon Cahn's 'The Harbinger' and you just might agree.
STUNNING parallels.
