Prejudiced people

Dave in Tenn:
Joshua 5:13-15  While Joshua was near Jericho, he suddenly saw a man standing in front of him, holding a sword. Joshua went up to him and asked, "Are you one of our soldiers, or an enemy?"

"Neither," the man answered. "I am here as the commander of the LORD's army."

Joshua threw himself on the ground in worship and said, "I am your servant, sir. What do you want me to do?"

And the commander of the LORD's army told him, "Take your sandals off; you are standing on holy ground." And Joshua did as he was told.

I'm trying to do that too.

Have faith in what you can't see, but beware of the things that appear to be good, but are evil. Things are not what they appear to be.
 Yes, I live in America, but its not something to be proud of. Its a beautiful country in its beautiful landscapes. I live in a part of Gods world. I'm thankful for where He has placed me, but I am in no way proud of a country or nation. It just might be that other countries see what most Americans refuse to see, or just don't care. No! I am not American. I am a child of God, living on His earth. Sometimes you have to place yourself on the outside looking in to see whats going on.
Peace

Roy,
I am from Germany originally. I lived in Frankfurt, Germany, for 24 years altogether. When I immigrated to the US in 1976, it was one of the happiest days in my life. I became a US citizen 6 years ago and had to give up my German citizenship. In hindsight, I am not sure it was the smartest move. I have seen a lot of changes in this country, and they are not for the better. All I have to do is look at Wall-Street  :( . There is an air of arrogance and false pride in this country that makes me heartsick.
When I grew up in Germany, a few years after WW II, the German population was greatly humbled. I grew up in a family and amongst people that knew no prejudices then and never heard a bad word about people who were "different". I was confronted with "prejudices" after I moved to the States; it shocked me.
Sometimes I wish I could just pack up and move back... If it wasn't for the son I would leave behind, the decision would be so easy.

Linny:
Firefly, I sincerely apologize for the prejudices you have suffered at the hands of other Americans. It makes my heart sick as well.
Roy, again, you have stated elequently EXACTLY how we feel.
We used to be flag flying, patriotic americans. But part of learning truth is seeing the world as it is. America is just as government/media propaganda controlled as any other nation if not more so. Having a dad who served in the Navy I have seen up close and personal the extent the government goes to to keep us saluting and never questioning our government. All man-run institutions are evil and we should not be like sheep nor drink the Kool-aid of following any evil entity of this world. Trust God and no other.
Our new motto, "If most people believe it, it probably isn't true..."
