As we enter the new year, there seems to be no way to distance ourselves from the old year. We simply wait for the next mass murder; each one wanting to outdo the others. Gun control is not the answer, armed guards won’t do it.

The answer is so simple, we overlook it. Some would ask why God would allow such a horrible thing as the incident at Sandy Hook. God had nothing to do with it. He wasn’t allowed to be there!

The solution to our problemed society today is to restore God to his rightful place in our schools. Until we do that and raise up our children by biblical principles, we will continue in the downward spiral that we are in until God says it’s enough and pronounces final judgment on our great nation.
