Moving the landmarks isn't just happening in Western culture. It is happening in the church as well. Some denominations are sanctioning gay marriage and ordaining gay marriage. I even read of a group of religious leaders who blessed an abortion clinic. I heard on the radio that there is something now called "Angel Cards" which is supposed to be a Christian version of Tarot. The Bible says we are to have nothing to do with them and that even Satan can appear as an angle of light (2 Corinthians 11:14) We are losing ground even within our own faith. Its time to not only restore the landmarks of America, but restore them within our churches as well. You don't have to be an activist unless you are called by God. We just need godly parents, godly church leaders, and godly politicians.
One of the best sermons I heard was by a teenager just starting out in ministry. He preached on the importance of Landmarks in the Bible. Landmarks were a tangible sign of covenant (Genesis 31:45-50, Deuteronomy 9:14). Now that God's people are spread throughout the world, we rarely use physical symbols of covenant. However, we can and should continue to use to the spiritual landmarks as a covenant people. God's laws aren't about preventing us from having fun, they are about setting strong interpersonal boundaries. It creates confusion when a man acts like a woman or a woman acts like a man. It creates confusion when we are unable to determine when life begins or how it should end. It creates confusion when babies are burned as a sacrament to Molech and Baal (Leviticus 18:21) It creates confusion when a person shacks up with a single parent. Are they a step-parent, friend, or just mom's boyfriend? It creates confusion when a pagan symbol (the arch of Baal) is proudly taken on tour throughout the world when when we were clearly told in the Bible to destroy such items.
