We need to be on God’s side

Most people have opinions of those running for the election, especially president. Just remember, we are far from the nation we started out to be. Our Pilgrim fathers were God-fearing and established our government on God’s commandments and teachings.

We had a great nation that was feared and respected all over the world for many generations. But, we got spoiled by prosperity and forgot where our strength to run our nation came from. Now it’s who has the most money and promises the most.

We need to remember this is God’s world and we were born to bring him pleasure and fellowship. God came down from heaven to walk with the first man he created until he disobeyed God and listened to the enemy. Then God had to make a way to bring his creation back and that was through the death of Jesus. His blood covers sins if we choose to come on his side.

Psalms 33:12 says, “Blessed is the nation where God is the Lord,” God always corrected the nation by wars and giving them wicked rulers to rule over them. So, if we have a God-fearing man running for office we would do well to vote for him and not for one who is out to destroy our nation by legalizing abortion and sodomy. Those are sins that brought destruction to all nations that promoted them.

What can we expect unless things change? The end is in sight, America, unless we get back on God’s side.

  • Safety along C.R. 35 is a concern

    This letter is meant to bring awareness and hopefully corrections in regard to C.R. 35 in Elkhart County. Something needs to be done immediately to enforce the laws pertaining to the use of C.R. 35.

  • Goshen should stick with ‘Redskins’

    I must respond to the letter to the editor from Mr. Ron Chupp (The Goshen News, May 9). What’s in a name, Mr. Chupp? I too have a Native American heritage, and for some reason, I am not offended by the term Redskins, or brown skins or any other color of skins.

  • More important issues than a nickname

    I would like to, in the most respectful way possible, respond to Mr. Chupp’s letter (The Goshen News, May 9) regarding the ongoing debate over the term “Redskins” being used as the nickname and mascot for the Goshen school system.

  • There is hope through God

    May I share what happened to me after praying about the issue of whether to have guns carried by school authorities at Goshen High School. While calling out to God, my question was: Why have we as a nation come to trusting in government agencies, such as Homeland Security, rather than obeying the Constitution in what you have declared through our forefathers?

  • Sheriff has this reader's support

    This letter is in defense of the Constitution and Bill of Rights, and in response to Shari Mellin’s letter (The Goshen News, May 8) about Sheriff Brad Rogers not obeying the laws related to anti-gun legislation

  • ‘Redskins’ nickname is offensive

    The question posed (in the May 5 edition) was, “What’s in a Name?” In the case of the GHS (Redskins) mascot, it is insult, degradation, racism, and an ongoing slap-in-the face reminder of the disgusting manner in which my Native American ancestors were treated by Europeans.

    The city of Goshen is in the 11th hour for the five Redevelopment Commission members to hear the voices of its residents concerning the millrace redevelopment proposals at its next meeting at 4 p.m. on May 14.

  • We don’t need a community center

    We want to keep this short and to the point. We keep reading articles and letters in the papers about the proposed community center in Goshen. Our question is why?

  • Freedom-loving Americans want our country back

    We are living in unprecedented times. The “America” of today is not the America that many of us grew up in.
