TRT-PODCAST#51 Reclaiming Fatherhood & Restoring Fathers

PART-2 OF A 3-PART SERIES ON FATHERHOOD | America has become a fatherless nation. Fatherlessness is anathema, and elicits a curse from God that becomes a decimating scourge on the nation that proliferates and promotes it. America is now, and perhaps has been for many years, ensconced in the curse of fatherlessness. The state of affairs in the world in this hour makes it evident that the land has been smitten with a curse as the prophecy of Malachi predicts (Mal. 4:5-6). We see revealed in this one passage of Scripture culminating the Old Testament, the fundamental root-cause of all that corruption and criminality—a dearth of fatherhood. Corruption and criminality is ubiquitous; so much so that in some regions of America governments cannot build and maintain the number of prisons needed to incarcerate all the lawbreaking criminals. History and sociological statistics tell us that wherever and whenever there is an absence of fatherhood there is an increase in sin and rebellion, along with the resultant crime and corruption that sin and rebellion engender in any society so affected. The produce of a dearth of fatherhood, in individual lives and collective society, is disobedience of all sorts and kinds. Indeed, America is now essentially a fatherless nation, both spiritually and psychologically. Today, it is a nation in which a high percentage of its citizenry reject, deride, and denigrate the concept of fatherhood and need for same. America has evicted God the Father from our schools, our courts, our government, our politics, our financial systems and economy, our homes, our public discourse, even many of our churches, and from many American's hearts and lives. Father-God is an outcast in America. America's all-out assault on fatherhood is a direct affront unto God the Father! God's message to America and Americans in this hour of fatherlessness is "REPENT! — before it is too late!"
