Has America Grown Incapable Of Freedom?

 While not purely Prophetic, I think this speaks a word that must be heard

This past year has shown just how easily the American people have tamely surrendered their freedom and liberty for a virus. Many have surrendered freedom for what they believe is some security. Could you imagine even just twenty years ago the American population so easily surrendering to government mandates by politicians and unelected health officials?

We have become a population that has more and more abandoned God and morality and replaced Him with the state. It’s a Faustian bargain. Americans have exchanged freedom and liberty for the security of government. They wish for government to take care of them from the cradle to the grave. They would rather give up individual freedom and liberty to let a small elite class of people manage and dictate for the collective good. Liberty is not collective, it is personal. All liberty is individual liberty.

That brings us back to the core question. Has America grown incapable of freedom? Is their a direct correlation between how moral and righteous a people are and how much they value freedom and liberty? Ben Franklin said only a virtuous people are capable of freedom. John Adams said our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people and it was totally inadequate for the government of any other. So has America become so immoral and debauched by rejecting God and His laws that we have lost the ability to comprehend the importance of freedom and liberty?
