Survey Shows Godlessness in Same Areas
as
Violent Crime and Democratic Voting
|
If you
overlaid a map of the Democratic Party strongholds over a map of high crime and
violence over a map of people who no longer read and believe the Bible, you
would find that they are nearly identical.
The
red-blue maps from the 2012 and 2016 elections clearly indicate that most of
America ’s big cities tend to vote Democratic in the election. The more rural
areas remain Republican strongholds.
When
reviewing the locations of the highest rates of violent crimes per capita, you
find that they are in America ’s big cities. Crimes committed with guns have a
much higher incident per capita in the big cities than in the small communities
and rural areas.
A
recent survey by the Barna
Group, indicates that 95% of the people
living in America ’s largest cities do not identify themselves as being
Bible-minded. According to Barna, Bible-minded people are those that believe
that Bible is true and accurate in the principles it teaches and that they read
the Bible weekly.
“The
least Bible-oriented markets include a mix of regions, but tend to be from the
New England area. Easily the lowest Bible-minded scores came from Providence ,
RI (9%) and Albany , NY (10%). To put this in perspective, the most Bible-minded
markets are five times more likely to have residents who qualify as Bible-minded
than is true in these two Northeastern cities.
Though
these two cities are the most extreme, none of the cities in the bottom 10 break
20%, where even one in five people could be considered Bible-minded. The New
England area is home to most of the markets in the bottom 10 Bible-minded
cities, including Burlington , VT (16%), Portland , ME (16%), Hartford , CT
(16%), Boston , MA (16%), Buffalo , NY (18%) and New York , NY (18%).
The
remaining markets in the bottom 10 are primarily in the West and include San
Francisco , CA (16%), Phoenix , AZ (17%), and Las Vegas , NV (18%). Cedar Rapids
, IA (18%) being something of an outlier.”
The
majority of the cities in their survey that ranked in the lowest number of
Bible-minded people also happen to be some of the cities with the higher than
average violent crime rates and who voted for Obama in the last two
elections.
Is there a connection? I definitely
believe there is. If you recall the Democratic National Convention last year,
it virtually prided itself on its exclusion of anything Christian or biblical.
They prided themselves on being supportive of a number of liberal anti-biblical
issues such as abortion and gay rights.
So is
it any wonder that the larger enclaves of liberal Democrats who have turned away
from God’s Word and His laws, also have the higher rates of violent crime per
capita? It can easily be summed up that the absence of God and the Bible
equates to more liberalism and higher crime rates. But liberals don’t want to
admit that their beliefs are the problems that we are experiencing and that have
surfaced with events like Sandy Hook and Aurora . They are like an addict that
denies his addiction and therefore refuses to seek the proper treatment for his
problems.
So what are we to do and what is the fate of the Godless? RB
"...Earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.
For there are certain men crept in
unawares, who were .... ungodly men,
turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God,
and our Lord Jesus Christ....The Lord, having
saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that
believed not. And the angels which (followed Lucifer in rebellion against God), he hath reserved in
everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.
Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities
about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going
after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of
eternal fire. Likewise also these
filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of
dignities.....But these speak evil of those things which
they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things
they corrupt themselves. Woe unto them!
.... These are spots in your feasts of charity.... Raging waves of
the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is reserved the
blackness of darkness for ever....Behold, the Lord
cometh with ten thousands of his saints, To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of
all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard
speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him. These are murmurers, complainers, walking
after their own lusts; and their mouth speaketh great swelling words,
having men's persons in admiration because of advantage. But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of
the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ; How
that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk
after their own ungodly lusts. These be
they .... sensual, having not the Spirit...... And of some have compassion.... pulling them out of the fire....Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to
present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding
joy, To the only wise God our Saviour,
be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen." Jude 1:3-25
