4. Dear Tim:

For the Christian in America today there is only so much we can do. Only 43% of our fellow countrymen even go to church today. We are now outnumbered. But that which we can do, with God's help, we must do. We can pray to God that He send revival to America.


First, I suspect that "our fellow Americans" are no less spiritual or, even, less God-Fearing. I suspect that there's a reason for the 43% not going to church ... they/we are not buying what you, and your church, is selling - and I do mean selling - (see: your above list of grievances ... it appears you are attempting to assert YOUR will, rather than allow them/us to exercise their/our will ... however, they/we may choose).

Secondly, be careless of what you wish for ... the "revival (of) America" is happening without you.
