God damn the USA vs. God bless the USA!

The other day, I heard a man say, "God damn the USA!"  He professes to be a Christian, but he preaches hate.  How could he damn the USA and not put a curse on all Americans, including our president?  Does that sound like our Lord, who said, "I didn't come to condemn the world, but to save it."?  
     Love your enemies and pray for them who despitefully use you.  Pray for this man of influence that God would change his heart, and change the curses into blessings!  Jesus said many would call him "Lord, Lord," and He would say He never knew them.  This man doesn't know the Lord I know.  
     Romans 12:14 - Bless, and do not curse.  
     Luke 6:28 - Bless those who curse you.  Pray for them.
     Galatians 3:10-13 - Christ redeemed us from the curses by becoming a curse for us.
     James 3:6 - The tongue is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the body.
     James 3:9 - With the tongue, we praise our Lord, and with it curse men who are made in God's likeness.
     Test every spirit by the word of God.  

     Love, a work in progress.

  1. Hi, Laura, I really, truly like what you are writing about God---and us. You inspire me and make me want to read more, so exciting. I put your blog on my blog as one of my favorites. I am friends with Jan Bracken, and she showed me your writing just days ago! How glad I am. Please feel free to visit my writing, that the Holy Spirit directed me to start over a year ago...interesting story in itself. I love the Lord, too, very much, and it is my main goal to spread the Good News of Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. The time is drawing short. Please pray for my loved ones who still need Him/need to return to him, will you? Thanks...for whom may I pray for you? I can give you my- well, here is my gmail: donnaandroyce@gmail.com Blog: www.thehealingisalwayschrist.com Love and blessings in the riches of the glory of Jesus! Donna P.S. Best, best wishes and prayers on your endeavor- it shows that you love the Lord and think about him, study, pray, and read; I imagine you fellowship and move and have your being in Him :) I feel we get stronger and stronger each day as true believers (do not mean to sound snobby at all.)
