Faith and freedom are inextricably linked and the reason why America is facing so many problems right now is the lack of belief in God, and the lack of obedience to God.

“The very first right that’s placed into our Bill of Rights is the freedom of religion, followed closely by the freedom of speech and those are really tied together,” Ginn said. “When you see those two things attacked … it’s time for believers to be concerned.”
And that’s where America is at right now, he went on.
“Christianity always has been and should be and should continue to be the conscience of our nation,” Ginn said, then asking, “When we have a lack of morality, who’s to protect us from the deluge of culture [rot]?”
