The recent decline in the morals of our nation’s citizens is eating away at America like a cancer—and the prognosis does not look good at this time!  The cancer has rapidly spread to a great percentage of our country’s population.  It’s an invasive and pervasive cancer and not even American Christians are immune from its affects.

      America has always been afflicted with nagging moral cancers over the last 235 years, which have been dealt with as they occurred, and for the most part have been successfully cut out or controlled each time, but the deadly moral cancer we are dealing with today began in 1962 and was possibly at first thought to be harmless when it originated in our court system nearly 50 years ago.  The year 1962 was the year when America first began to separate religious principles from public affairs.  Unfortunately, in our federal government, especially the Supreme Court, the spreading immorality found an extremely fertile environment in which to thrive, and it soon became a dangerous cancer that got into the life blood of our nation.  

     From 1962 until today the moral cancer has rapidly metastasized into all the previously normal functions of our country, functions which had for the most part kept America healthy and strong since 1776.  It seems the only question left remaining is this one—does America have ‘terminal’ moral cancer?  Let’s pray not, but our moral cancer has aggressively spread through the bloodstream of our culture, damaging the health of our political, educational, economic, and various other vital systems in our society, systems which need to remain healthy in order to keep our nation functioning properly.  

     We may still be able to affect the final diagnosis for America’s possibility of recovery from moral cancer, but the 2012 national elections look to be a pivotal time in preventing the death of the America most of us have known and loved over the years.  The only effective medication available to cure moral cancer in America is the Word of God found in the Bible.  If we will once again open our nation’s doors and hearts to God, and pray that He will continue bestowing His mercy and grace upon the United States as He has done from the very founding of our country, then maybe we can still save the patient.
