In this edition of News and Views a presentation of the HUB of New Mexico and FGGAM NEWS, we talk about: IS THERE A REBELLION GOING ON IN AMERICA? Franklin Graham says, “The world is unraveling”. Do not forget the Franklin Graham prayer rally in Santa Fe, New Mexico March 16th at noon at the State Capital. Listen now, please, to today’s News and Views. Preach the truth!

Preach the word [as an official messenger]; be ready when the time is right and even when it is not [keep your sense of urgency, whether the opportunity seems favorable or unfavorable, whether convenient or inconvenient, whether welcome or unwelcome]; correct [those who err in doctrine or behavior], warn [those who sin], exhort and encourage [those who are growing toward spiritual maturity], with inexhaustible patience and [faithful] teaching. -2 Timothy 4:2

We continue to pray over the Decision America tour coming to Santa Fe, New Mexico on March 16th……..

Rev. Franklin Graham has said that international news headlines indicate the world is unraveling, and urged people to trust Jesus Christ, who is going to one day “wipe the slate clean.”

“While the United States is focused on its own politics, the world is unraveling. The danger signals are everywhere. Beheadings, rapes, murders, bombings are taking place every day across North Africa through the Middle East, all the way to the borders of India,” Graham wrote Thursday on his Facebook page.

As I travel to each state, I meet so many Christians who are tired of seeing God’s truth silenced, and I’m honored to stand with them on their capitol steps in prayer for our nation. I want to encourage God’s people to pray, vote, and engage in their communities—and it looks like this is exactly what happened in Iowa this week.

Have You Signed The Pledge Yet?

Thank you for your support of the Decision America Tour and for standing up for God’s truth. If you haven’t signed the pledge to God and our country, please do so today atDecisionAmericaTour.com. May He bless you and your faithfulness—and may God bless America!

Sincerely,

Franklin Graham

P.S. Don’t forget to pray for these Decision America Tour dates also and share them on social media. If you live nearby, bring your friends or fill a bus from your church.

IS AMERICA ‘IN THE MIDST OF A REBELLION’?

DR. JIM DENISON

FEBRUARY 22, 2016

Donald Trump won the Republican presidential primary in South Carolina, while Bernie Sanders narrowly lost to Hillary Clinton in Nevada after being behind by twenty-five points just a few weeks ago. A recent Fox News poll put Sanders in the lead nationally. Jeb Bush withdrew from the race, an outcome no one would have predicted a few months ago.This year’s presidential nominating process has been nothing like anything we’ve seen in decades. Why?

The Wall Street Journal‘s Peggy Noonan believes that “we’re in the midst of a rebellion.” She cites “the general decline of America’s faith in its institutions” and notes that “we feel less respect for almost all of them—the church the professions, the presidency, the Supreme Court.”

According to Noonan, those who support Donald Trump or Bernie Sanders are thinking, “Let’s take a chance. Washington is incapable of reform or progress; it’s time to reach outside.” They think Washington “will moderate Bernie, take the edges off Trump” and therefore “don’t see their choices as so radical.”

There is strong evidence to support Noonan’s view.

In 1958, three-fourths of Americans said they trusted the federal government to do the right thing always or most of the time. Today, only twenty-six percent of Democrats and nineteen percent of Republicans feel the same way.

According to a CNN exit poll, fifty-three percent of Republicans voting in last Saturday’s South Carolina primary said they feel betrayed by the GOP. In a recent Gallup poll, the issue identified as America’s top problem was “dissatisfaction with the government.”

Why?

Politics are downstream from culture. Since 1958 we’ve lived through the Vietnam War, Watergate, ongoing conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq, and multiple economic crises. “Occupy Wall Street” and “Black Lives Matter” are expressions of continuing civil unrest.

It’s also noteworthy that since 1958, the number of non-religious Americans has grown from 3.5 million to fifty million. Legalized abortion has taken nearly fifty-nine million lives in the U.S.; Internet pornography is epidemic; same-sex marriage is now legal.

Would you say our culture is closer to God than we were fifty-seven years ago, or further from him?

John Adams warned us in 1798: “We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion . . . Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”

Here’s the good news: While Americans may have given up on God, God has not given up on us. We can still pray with David, “I trust in you, O Lord; I say, ‘You are my God.’ My times are in your hand” (Psalm 31:14–15).

In whose hand are your times today?
