Reclaiming the Forgotten Biblical Heritage: Volume 2

Much of what forms the foundation of Western civilization - the family, economics, education, the media, culture, human rights, and all moral standards - directly stems from the Bible. In Volume II of Reclaiming the Forgotten Biblical Heritage, the author presents a past and current assessment of how the West has morally and spiritually departed from all these spheres of influence. History proves that any nation that forgets God will always lose its freedom. When that God-given freedom is lost, a tyrannical government is established with a religion of humanism that is diametrically opposed to biblical Christianity. This is what happened to Russia in 1917 and Nazi Germany in the 1930s. Alexandr Solzhenitsyn said that Russian people lost their freedom because "men had forgotten God." Many historians today are warning that there are ominous similarities to what happened in Nazi Germany and what is happening in the West today. When concluding his analysis, he urges Christians to repent, preach the cross, pray for another Great Awakening, and to spiritually prepare for what could be one of the most challenging and exciting periods in world history. There is hope because "where sin abounded, grace abounded much more, so that as sin reigned in death, even so grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 5:20).
