Oh, If We Had This Law

I issue a decree that in every part of my kingdom people must fear and reverence the God of Daniel.

For he is the living God

    and he endures forever;

his kingdom will not be destroyed,

    his dominion will never end.

He rescues and he saves;
    he performs signs and wonders
    in the heavens and on the earth.

Daniel 6:26-27a

Oh, that we had a similar law in this country.  I know, I know...land of the free...but many Christians have overlooked this privilege and have, therefore, taken to their own desires.  "Church" to them is a building not a relationship as the bride of Christ so they are not attending or giving to support the workings of Christ through the church.  Churches are falling down around us and congregations are growing old and dying.  So few young adults bring their children, attend, or join a church.  It seems we want a church of convenience only.  So few are really involved in Christ's work.  It's sad to think that these beautiful church buildings will lie in ruins in a few short years...so sad.
