Every July 4 most churches have some sort of patriotic service or event and pretend that America is what she used to be. We no longer live in the America of our ancestors. We live in a country that has fallen from honor and blessing to shame and contempt from the whole world. We also live in a country that is facing the soon and certain judgment of God Almighty.

“ American Patriotism: Religion of Idolatry ” It appears that America has created a new false religion in the form of American patriotism. As we know, American patriotism is a religion of idolatry. We know that like the rebellious Vatican, America is also guilty of spreading idolatry across the globe. The American flag and all other American symbols are idols now present in churches today. We ought to adhere to Romans 13:1-7, but even obeying Romans 13:1-7 would require us to oppose idolatry of the heart. Even the secular media and people of other nations can see the idolatrous character of American patriotism. As this sermon demonstrates, American patriotism is detestable in The Eyes of The Lord because it is an idolatry of both the heart and a worship of American symbols like the stars and stripes. No wonder John Calvin, The Father of Reformed Theology, warned that the human heart is a factory of idols. This factory of idols is called America and American patriotism is a visible manifestation of that idol worship. Worth noting Exodus 20:3-6 in response to this craze of idolatry across America.

“ America's Spiritual Foundation ” The fact of the matter is that America was not only founded on secular humanism, but occultism and paganism as well. The Lady Justice with the blindfold in American symbolism is based on the pagan Greek goddess of justice Themis. All of this shows that the majority of people in America have had blatant disregard for the First and Second Commandments, even since the U.S. Constitution was ratified on 25 September, 1789.

“ Lets pray for America ” Praise for saying this. Praying The Lord Jesus change hearts in our USA or Lord have mercy on me and return quickly. May the Lords will be done. God bless you Pastor..... Through Christ, God has given us the privilege and authority as apostles to tell Gentiles everywhere what God has done for them, so that they will believe and obey him, bringing glory to his name. (Romans 1:5 NLT)
