Dear Editor,
Since there have been millions of innocent babies killed in this country over several decades, some have written publications stating that God has taken His hand of protection off of America as He did with Israel during Jeremiah’s time. 
Like me, people (Christians and non Christians) have not stood up for those babies. Like me, we were busy with our jobs, churches, communities, families, and self.  
While those with a passion for abortion and the “rights of women” were fighting for their right to have abortions and loudly protesting for it, we were silent.  
The morals and practices of America have drastically changed from how this country began.  People have chosen not to marry but to live together.  In 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 Paul relays God’s word: “Do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God?  Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God”  
Some that have researched historical records, have written publications stating God began judgment of America on 9/11.  According to those publications, God allowed a foreign entity to enter this country with the intent of destruction.  For a short time, there was a revival.  
After 9/11, according to those publications, America was given a time to repent.  God states “If my people will humble themselves and pray, I will hear them and heal their land.”  
If ever a country needs healing, it’s America.
Sincerely,

Gwen Vess Whitmore

Cherokee Trail, Covington
