    Given the decline of religion, morality, and virtue since America's birth, what action (big or small) can you do NOW to start reversing the damage done by an Anti-God and Anti-Christ culture?

    I can start reading the bible to my children (5 yrs old) each night, to instill in them the morals and virtuous teachings of God's word.

    I can start reading the bible with my spouse.

    I can share the truth's discovered in the Truth project with others and promote and encourage others to take the study.

    Pray is the big word. Love to make our America in peace, freedom of rights, ethical, morals, and righteous forever, but how. The answer is pray that God will control.

    Personally, I can't control them, but to share the good news to them. I've surrendered to God fully and let Him control. Even we're in the midst of the world. Not one on earth has a perfect solution. If ascending to heaven, you'll have perfect earth, perfect Heaven, and perfect everything. So, stand firm and know that God is in control. Your name will be written on His book.

    Everyone should follow Christ and do things like Brad said (previous comment). Learn and teach them. We need to be holy and glorify to God daily. Don't judge others, because that is between God and man. Man with satan will be destroy anyway. They will be judged. They will be struggled in the end. Soon after the Tribulation ends, they will be completely gone as, see the Book of Revelation.

    If our leader of this country can lead to do what is right, good for him/her. We should should pray for leaders that God will lead them away from bad choices. Anything is possible for God if you let Him.

    I think that we need to really make a return to Biblical education ourselves. So many Christians are not fully educated in what God's word truly says, aside from basic principals. How often I have heard "I would like to read the Bible, but it's just so hard to understand". We need to all be continually seeking out good, quality studies that educate us about God's word ourselves, so we can know exactly what his expectations are about our lives, and to help discern between true sin and legalism- which can make Christians appear "condescending and judgmental" to non-believers. Educating ourselves, means we can also share with our family, the right and wrong responses in their lives too. Even in casual conversation, my husband and I point out to our children, what we’ve learned that the Bible says regarding circumstances.

    Lately, I've heard several people say, "Well, I would talk more about God at work, if I wasn't afraid of losing my job." Personally, I can't think of a better reason to lose your job! I don't mean that we should all be standing on our desks proselytizing to everyone within ear-shot, but I also don't mean that we should just secretly pass on a spiritual chain mail to only the other people in the office that we know are already Christian and feel content that we’ve done our part.
    Somewhere in the middle, there lies an opportunity to share the Gospel with co-workers that does not interfere with your work duties or business flow. Jesus said that he didn’t come to abolish the law, but to uphold it. Just the same, we should not be looking to interfere with business continuity just to share the Gospel, but should demonstrate real Christian beliefs when we speak, act, or work with each other. So if my company fires me for orchestrating an all-inviting bible study on my lunch break, or I'm reprimanded for displaying Christian emblems on my desk, or if I refuse to attend a celebration for gay pride day, peacefully, then and only then would I gladly accept my pink slip. My trust lies in God to be my provider, not corporate America.

    These are things that my family and I are working on, to walk the talk, on taking a stand against the de-moralization of our society.
