This is all a spiritual battle, not a material one.

Perhaps God is trying to remind us of this. Americans, even conservatives, have sold out their souls to materialism and the comforts of wealth a long time ago. America under Jewish influence became a crony capitalism of greed ego and narcissism, the vanity and sin of easy pleasures and love of money.

What did Christ say? Do not store up your treasures on earth where thieves can break in and steal, store up your treasures in heaven.

He also said that we ought give away our wealth and take up our own cross and follow him. How many Christian Americans do that?
