Anne Graham Lotz spoke at the Family Research Council’s “Watchmen on the Wall” conference yesterday, where she declared that America is in “deep trouble” because we have fallen under God’s judgment as a result of everything from the teaching of evolution to gay marriage.
Reading from Romans 1, Lotz proclaimed that the wrath of God is now coming against this nation.
“In our schools, we teach evolution as fact and Creationism, if it’s mentioned, it’s sort of a fringe theory,” she complained. “I believe America is in the last stage of this downward spiral into the abyss of God’s judgment. God is backing away from America. He has said again and again and again, ‘If you forsake me, I will forsake you. If you abandon me, I will abandon you.’ And so we see God abandoning America as we shake our fist in his face and insist on our immorality and all the things we are doing. And we could give examples of the craziness; we’ve lost our common sense, we’ve lost our ability to think straight — pun intended. And God backs away, removing his hand of blessing, his hand of favor and his hand of protection.”
“We’re on the edge of an abyss and it’s going to get worse,” she warned. “God is moving and when he moves, very often it’s not pretty and it can get ugly and if we don’t repent and turn to him, then it gets worse.”
