I recall a period of time a few years ago when I was driven to carry a sign around the OKC Metro area that said on one side, "Repent, America" and on the other side, "God's wrath is upon us!" I still have that sign in my closet. I also wore a collection of t-shirts with similar messages. I even passed out some flyers. Then over a very short period of time, random circumstances destroyed those shirts and I felt led to stop carrying the sign.
It isn't that America no longer needs to repent, but I felt like the window had closed. You see, I knew that America had violated a lot of other countries in the world. That violence is coming home. That's how I see us where we are today. Nobody wants it, but violence is decreed from Heaven for us. We need to face it as such, and not pretend God couldn't want that for America. That window of repentance was to gain some kind of reprieve, some kind of chance to reduce the the depth and prevalence of violence. Not many folks made that window. It would have required calling the troops home, and as you can see, that didn't happen.
(By the way, I have no idea how correct the way that image displays up there.)
