God And The Nations - Part 3 - Can The Nation Be Saved Series

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Jul 16, 2020

Many Christians in America have inadvertently or intentionally placed the good of our nation above the good of the Kingdom of God. They are NOT the same thing. What is the proper Biblical attitude we should have regarding our relationship with the Lord and with our nation?
