Due to all the falsehoods being spewed out by the jews and their lackeys this should be interesting reading for it is the real history of our forefathers, and not the Edomite/Canaanite/Khazar/Edomite/Canaanite/Khazar/Jewish made up crap that the masses of Americans believe.
As a point of clarification, throughout the writings of the Founders of the Constitution, they sometimes refer to Christianity, sometimes religion, sometimes Godly principles, etc. Also "Providence" was a term used commonly to refer to God.
The religion they are referring to is always Christianity and the God is the God of the Bible. It was so well known at the time and referred to in so many writings, that it was assumed in other writings that everyone knew the religion they were talking about.
George Washington - 1755 French & Indian War: In the French & Indian war in 1755, George Washington commanded 1300 troops against the Indians in a woodland battle. Washington's officers (on horseback) and most of his troops were cut down. At the end of the battle Washington was the only officer that remained & still on horseback. Afterwards he found 4 bullet holes in his jacket & wrote to his wife that God had protected him.
Fifteen years later, the Indian chief that fought against Washington traveled a good distance to meet him when he heard that he was in the area of the battleground. This chief stated that he had commanded his braves to concentrate on killing Washington and had personally shot at him 17 times. He wanted to meet the man that "God wouldn't let die."
This exciting story and Washington's letter, used to be in the American history books. In an effort to degrade American heroes that depended on God, American history books are being revised and this story & letter have been removed in this century.
Patrick Henry - An American Patriot: He is known for his saying "Give me liberty or give me death." He also said
"It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often, that this great nation was founded not by religionists, but by Christians, not on religion, but on the gospel of Jesus Christ."
American Tract Society - American bible society (and others): It is interesting that the Founders of the Constitution of the U.S. were the same people that were among the Founders of the early religious evangelical societies that are still in existence today. In 1813 the American Tract Society bound together their tracts from many years past into a book and the names of many of the Founders are included.
The New England Primer ‑ 1795: The New England Primer was a reader used in what would be our 1st grade. It was first introduced in 1690 and taught for 200 years in America, until 1900. The Alphabet was taught with Bible verses that begin with each letter of the alphabet. Also lessons had questions about the Bible and the Ten Commandments.
John Quincy Adams: With the education that had a Godly influence, John Quincy Adams received an appointment to Ambassador to Russia at 14 years of age. He later wrote
"The highest glory of the American Revolution was this: that it tied together in one indissoluble bond, the principles of civil government with the principles of Christianity."
John Jay: Jay was the first Chief Justice of the Supreme Court and one of the three men most responsible for the writing of the Constitution of the U.S. He said
"Providence has given to our people the choice of their Rulers, and it is the duty, as well as the privilege and interest of our Christian nation, to select & prefer Christians for their Rulers."
How long has it been since the Supreme Court said to make sure you elect Christians for your leaders? We have lost this guidance which made our country great.
George Washington - Presidential Farewell Speech: Washington was a public servant for 45 years. He was President of the convention that gave us the Constitution. He called for the 1st Amendment Bill of Rights. After 2 terms as President, he gave a farewell speech which was heralded as the most significant political speech ever given to the nation. It has since been removed from American history books and it would be rare to find it in any for at least the last 30 years. Why?
In it he said:
"Of all the habits and dispositions which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports. In vain would that man claim the tribute of patriotism, who should labor to subvert these great pillars."
Apparently the people writing our history books want to change what our children are taught about the connection between political prosperity and religion and morality.
Forms of Government: The form of government established by the Founders of the U.S. has lasted over 200 years. Some other countries have undergone many different forms during this same period; such as France, 7 forms & Italy 40 forms.
Men Most Quoted by The Founding Fathers of The U.S.: Political Science professors at the University of Houston wondered if there was something unique about the government of the U.S. They gathered 15,000 quotes from the Founders and located where all of them came from.
They then boiled that down to 3,154 quotes that had significant impact on the founding of America. It took them 10 years to finish the project, but they found that the three men most quoted by the Founding fathers were Blackstone, Montesquieu, and John Locke. They also found that the Bible was quoted:
4 times more often than Montesquieu,
12 times more often than Blackstone, and
16 times more often than Locke.
Additionally, 34% of all quotes were from the Bible, and another 60% of the quotes were from men who were using the Bible to arrive at their conclusions. Added together, 94% of all the quotes of the Founders had their origin in the Bible, which shows the importance of God's word in their lives and of this Nation's founding.
Blackstone�s Commentary & Charles Finney: Blackstone's Commentary on the Law, introduced in 1758, became the law textbook for lawyers for 160 years, and the Supreme Court quoted from it to settle cases. It gave Bible verse references to the law.
For instance the three branches of government are based on Isaiah 33:22, the separation of powers is based on Jeremiah 17, and the tax exemption for Churches on Ezra 7:24. Countries even next to the U.S., such as Canada and Mexico, don't have tax exemption for churches.
While Finney was studying to become a lawyer, he became a Christian and then a well known Evangelist in the 1800's, primarily because he saw the truth of the Bible verse references in Blackstone's Commentary.
Before the introduction of Jews on the Supreme Court, it recognized the supremacy of the Holy Bible and Almighty God as the Supreme Ruler of the United States.
But since Jews have been allowed to disgrace this hollowed court, it has become more and more anti-Christ; and a defender of murderers, thieves, baby killers, rapists (as long as they are against whites) perverts, degenerates, anti-Christs and other assorted riff raff.
Supreme Court ‑ 1844,� Vidal vs Girard: A Philadelphia school wanted to teach morals without using the Bible. The Court said
"Why may not the Bible, and especially the New Testament, be read and taught as a divine revelation in the schools? Where can the purest principals of morality be learned so clearly or perfectly as from the N.T."
Any book teaching good morality would certainly be teaching what the N.T. teaches, so why not use the original source which doesn't change.
Supreme Court ‑ 1892,� Church of The Holy Trinity vs U.S.: In another challenge the court ruled
"Our laws and our institutions must necessarily be based upon and embody the teachings of the Redeemer of mankind, and it's impossible that it should be otherwise: and in this sense and to this extent our civilization and our institutions are emphatically Christian."
The court also quoted 87 different historical precedents to back up its decision, from the Founding Fathers, Acts of the Founding Fathers, Acts of Congress, etc, etc.
Supreme Court ‑ 1811,� People vs Ruggles: There was a man who made attacks on Jesus in such a blasphemous way that it made it to the Supreme Court and the court ruled:
"Whatever strikes at the root of Christianity tends manifestly to the dissolution of civil government."
They reasoned that if you attack Jesus, you have attacked Christianity, & if you have attacked Christianity, you have attacked the foundation of the U.S., therefore an attack on Jesus or Christianity was equivalent to an attack on the foundation of the U.S.
"Separation,��Church,� & �State� do not appear in the Constitution: Many people think it is part of the 1st Amendment, but it is not. The 1st Amendment reads:
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishing of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof."
What the Founders DID NOT want was any ONE DENOMINATION of the Christian religion to run the nation. They wanted to stay away from what they had left in England, where the King was the head of the Church. However the Founding Fathers and the Supreme Court were quite clear that Christianity was the established religion, and WAS to be involved in the government. This is evident in the Supreme Court decision of 1796, Thomas Jefferson's letter of 1802, and many other writings.
Supreme Court ‑ 1796, Runkel vs Winemiller:
"By our form of government the Christian religion is the established religion, and all sects and denominations of Christians are placed on the same equal footing."
January 1, 1802 LETTER from President Thomas Jefferson To The Danbary Baptist, of Connecticut: In 1801 the Danbary Baptist Church heard a rumor that the Congregationalist Denomination was going to be made the National Denomination. This disturbed them as it well should. Jefferson answered in his letter:
"THE 1ST AMENDMENT HAS ERECTED A WALL OF SEPARATION BETWEEN CHURCH AND STATE, BUT THAT WALL IS A ONE DIRECTIONAL WALL, IT KEEPS THE GOVERNMENT FROM RUNNING THE CHURCH, BUT IT MAKES SURE THAT CHRISTIAN PRINCIPLES WILL ALWAYS STAY IN GOVERNMENT."
Please read that very carefully, it is supposed to protect the church from the government, not the government from the church. And it is supposed to guarantee that Christian principles will always stay in government. This is where the "wall of separation" originated, but it was another 146 years before a non‑Christian, liberal, Supreme Court distorted and reversed what the Founders meant the Constitution to do.
The Congress went through twelve different iterations before determining the final wording. It is evident from the other wordings that what they wanted was to always have God's principles in government, but not to have one denomination running the nation, or any interference from the government into religion. The 1st Amendment reads: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishing of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof."
Response From The House And Senate ‑ 1853: Minority groups from time to time did keep trying to change things to their way of thinking and in 1853 there was a group that petitioned Congress for the separation of Christian principles from government. The House and Senate had a one year investigation of the matter.
The House Judiciary Committee on March 27, 1854 reported:
"Had the people during the revolution, had any suspicion of any attempt to war against Christianity, that revolution would have been strangled in its cradle."
The Senate also made a similar statement.
The report continued:
"At the time of the adoption of the Constitution and the Amendments, the universal sentiment was that Christianity should be encouraged, but not any one sect. In this age there can be no substitute for Christianity. That was the religion of the Founders of the Republic and they expected it remain the religion of their descendants.
"The great, vital and conservative element in our system is the belief of our people in the pure doctrines and the divine truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ."
Supreme Court ‑ 1878,� Reynolds vs U.S.: After 1853 for the next 50 years or so there were some other cases that worked their way through the courts and challenged Christian principles in government. Each time precedents were cited such as Jefferson's letter and they were defeated.
One of the cases was in 1878. Thomas Jefferson's letter was referred to in its entirety. It was repeated that the 1st Amendment is to protect the Church from the government, and Christian principles are never to be separated from the government.
Supreme Court ‑ 1947,� Everson vs Board of Education: For the very first time in Court history, only eight words were used from Jefferson's letter. They were taken out of context and a brand new meaning applied, which reversed their original intent. The Court stated:
"The 1st Amendment erected a wall between Church and State. That wall must be kept high and impregnable."
It didn't recognize that the wall was intended to be a one way wall to keep government out of religion.
Dr. William James - Father of Modern Psychology: In the 1940's the Supreme Court and many other courts were being influenced by the philosophy of James who was a strong opponent of religion in government. He had said:
"There is nothing so absurd that if you repeat it often enough, people will believe it."
The phrase "Separation of Church & State" began being repeated over and over and this is born out in a court case in Bear vs Colmorgan(sp?) in 1958. The Judge said:
"If this court doesn't stop talking about the Separation of Church and State, everyone's going to think that's what the Constitution says."
Supreme Court ‑ JUNE 25,1962, Engle vs Vitale: This is the landmark case that removed prayer from the public schools. It was even noted in the 1963 World Book Encyclopedia that this was the first time that we had separation of religious principles from public education.
The amazing thing is that it was done without citing any precedent from other cases as is the normal procedure. Instead it was an entirely new statement not based on any historical or legal base. There were no quotes from previous legal cases! Instead, it was a brand new doctrine which according to all the previous legal decisions WAS IN VIOLATION OF THE CONSTITUTION! Nevertheless it took precedent over all the previous interpretations of the Constitution which had cited many precedents that disagreed with this new ruling.
The �Unconstitutional� Prayer: The case was over a 22 word prayer which the Court said later was a "to whom it may concern prayer," a very bland prayer that mentioned God only once, and Jesus not at all. It read:
"We acknowledge our dependence on thee, and we beg thy blessings upon us, our parents, our teachers, and our country."
The Declaration of Independence was written & approved by the same people as the Constitution and it refers to God four times. Yet it has never been declared unconstitutional. The prayer deals with four areas however which have been dealt with prior to 1963 in a way which was in agreement with the Biblical principles. After 1963 the courts have reversed their position in these areas, which are:
us ‑‑‑ (students)������������������ parents ‑‑‑ (families)
teachers ‑‑‑ (schools)���������� country ‑‑‑ (nation)
Supreme Court ‑ JUNE 17,1963, Murray vs Curlett: This was the Madeline Murray O'Hare case against school prayer.
Supreme Court ‑ June 17,1963, Abington vs Schempp: Previous Courts had said that you couldn't have a school that didn't teach Christian principles based on the Bible. Early textbooks quoted the Bible and used it for teaching the alphabet. This case reversed previous decisions and made a brand new statement! It removed Bible reading and instruction from public schools and stated:
"If portions of the N.T. were read without explanation, they could be, and had been, psychologically harmful to the child."
How could such a statement be made by anyone who knows that the Founders of this successful government of America was due to their belief in the N.T. as essential to the well being of the nation and its' people?
At the time of the 1963 Court cases, they took a survey to determine how many people believed in God or religion. They found that only 3% didn't believe in God or religion. Although the prayer was consistent with 97% of the people, the Court ruled with the 3%. This is the first time that 3% became a majority under which the 97% now had to live by.
What happened in 1962‑63 in a 12 month period was a RADICAL REVERSAL of everything that had happened up to that point. Removal of prayer, Bible reading and religious classes in instruction was totally against the Constitution, but these NEW RULINGS were simply ANNOUNCED by the Supreme Court as if a dictator had taken over.
The influence of the Jews was beginning to be felt at a higher degree than at any time in our history, so our Supreme Court began to change into an anti-Christ, anti-Christian, anti-American court.
Bible Study Course For Dallas High Schools: As late as 1946 there was a Bible Study Course that was a requirement for graduation. After 1963, what had been standard for so many years, was not even an option to be taught anymore. The freedom of speech and religion had been censored in the public schools!
Further Censorship & Loss of Freedom of Speech & Religion Guaranteed by The Constitution:
1965: The Supreme Court declared it unconstitutional for a student to pray aloud.
1967: The Supreme Court declared a four line Nursery rhyme used by a K‑5 Kindergarten class was unconstitutional, even though it didn't contain the word "God." The Court said: "If someone heard it, it might cause someone to think of God." (Now we have censorship of our thoughts we might think!)
These kinds of court cases continued and in 1980 there was one concerning what is called a "Passive Display."
Supreme Court ‑ 1980, Stone vs Graham: A "passive display" would be like something hanging on a wall like a picture, which doesn't require that you pay any attention to it unless you want to. There was a passive display of the Ten Commandments hanging in a school hallway with no requirement to read it.
The Court ruled it was unconstitutional to display it in a school. They said:
"If the posted copies of the Ten Commandments are to have any affect at all, it will be to induce the school children to read, meditate upon, perhaps...to venerate and obey the commandments; this is not a permissible objective."
Just think, if it caused children to respect their parents or to decide not to steal or kill...that would be unconstitutional!
What kind of mind‑set is this, that is in charge of preserving our freedom? If the Ten Commandments had come from some philosopher instead of the Bible, would not they still be allowed in schools and held in high regard? When the Court says it's unconstitutional, aren't they saying that it's not what the writers of the Constitution had in mind when they wrote it? Look at what James Madison wrote. It is a Edomite/Canaanite/ Khazar/Jewish mind set.
James Madison - The Man Most Responsible For The Constitution:
"We have staked the whole future of American civilization not on the power of government, far from it. We have staked the future of all of our political institutions upon the capacity of each and all of us to govern ourselves according to the Ten Commandments of God."
Note that the Founders based everything, not on the Constitution, but on the Ten Commandments, which 200 years later an out of touch Court says should not even be displayed because it would not be permissible for it to be obeyed.
The Downward Spiral of National Morality in America Since the Rejection of God in 1963:
George Washington gave a warning when he said:
"Reason and experience both forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle."
In other words, you will lose national morality when you reject the religious principles found in the Bible.
Consider The Four Areas That The �Unconstitutional� Prayer Dealt With and How The Loss of National Morality Has Affected Those Areas. These figures have not been updated to 1998 as of yet.
A. us ‑ (the students)
1). Before 1963 pregnancies in girls ages 15 through 19 years had been no more than 15 per thousand for 15 years. After 1963 pregnancies increased 187% in the next 15 years.
2). For younger girls, ages 10 to 14 years, pregnancies since 1963 are up 553%.
3). Before 1963 sexually transmitted diseases among students were 400 per 100,000. Since 1963, they were up 226% in the next 12 years.
B. parents ‑ (families)
1). Before 1963 divorce had been declining for 15 years. After 1963 divorces increased 300% each year for the next 15 years.
2). Since 1963 unmarried people living together is up 353%
3). Since 1963 single parent families are up 140%.
4). Since 1963 single parent families with children are up 160%.
C. teachers ‑ (schools)
1). The educational standard of measure has been the SAT scores. SAT scores had been going along rather steady for many years before 1963. Since 1963 they took a rapid decline for 18 consecutive years, even though the same test has been used since 1941.
2). In 1974‑75 the rate of decline of the SAT scores decreased, even though they continued to decline. That was when there was an explosion of private religious schools. There were only 1000 Christian schools in 1965. Between 1974 to 1984 they increased to 32,000.
a). That could have an impact if the private schools had higher SAT scores. In checking with the SAT Board it was found that indeed the SAT scores for private schools were nearly 100 points higher than public schools.
b). In fact the scores were at the point where the public schools had been before their decline started in 1963 when prayer and Bible reading/ instruction was removed from the schools.
c). The scores in the public schools were still declining.
3). Of the nation's top academic scholars, three times as many come from private religious schools, which operate on one‑third the funds as do the public schools.
D. country ‑ (nation)
1). Since 1963 violent crime has increased 544%.
2). Illegal drugs have become an enormous & uncontrollable problem.
3). The nation has been deprived of an estimated 30 million citizens through legal abortions just since 1973.
Thomas Jefferson said: "The reason Christianity is the best friend of government is because Christianity is the only religion in the world that deals with the heart."
Jesus says do not hate, don't lust in your heart (Mt.5:21). That takes care of adultery, stealing, killing, etc.
The Founders pointed out that Christianity was the only religion that could stop crime before it started because all crime came out of the heart. If you deal with the heart problem, you won't have to deal with crime.
John Adams said:
"We have no government armed with power which is capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people, it is wholly inadequate to the government of any other."
We have only to look at history to know that there is no government big enough to make you do what is right if you aren't guided by morality & religion.
Jeremiah 6:16
"Thus says the Lord, Stand in the ways, and see, And ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk in it: Then you will find rest for your souls. But they said, 'We will not walk in it.'"
Since saying NO to Biblical principles America Has Become a World Leader In: Divorce, Teenage Pregnancies, Voluntary Abortions, Illegal Drugs, Illiteracy (in the Industrial World).
What were the "old paths" which were good, that had been established by our Founders? Each state passed a State Constitution which had requirements they considered most important for those who would represent them. Generally they were along the line of the Delaware Constitution in 1776 which stated:
"Everyone appointed to public office must say: 'I do profess faith in God the Father and in the Lord Jesus Christ his only son, and in the Holy Ghost, one God & blessed forevermore: and I do acknowledge the Holy Scriptures of the Old & New Testaments to be given by divine inspiration.'"
THE ESSENTIAL FOUNDATIONS OF A REPUBLICAN FORM OF GOVERNMENT
1). Self-government: 1 Timothy 3:5; Proverbs 16:31.
2). Union: The Bible is full of examples of covenants. 1 Corinthians 1:10; Psalms 133:1; Ephesians 4:1-3.
3). Individuality: Genesis 1. God's creation reveals the principle of individuality. (John 1:3) God created all things, He is reflected in His creation. (1 Corinthians 12:4-11) Each member of the Church has unique callings and gifts.
4). Property: Genesis 1:1; Isaiah 43:7; Ephesians 2:10; Revelation 4:11. God created the earth and all things on it, including man. Therefore, we belong to Him. We are not our own. We were created for His glory and His purpose. We are to be good stewards of that which is first our own person, and includes our conscience, which is the most sacred of all property. Acts 24:16 We should strive to maintain a blameless conscience.
5). Education: Deuteronomy 10:12-14; 6:4-9; Matthew 13; Mark 4; Luke 8. These chapters reveal the importance of the seed principle. Education operates like a seed.
6). Morality: Romans 8:19; John 15; Acts 24:16; Matthew 7:15-29; Galatians 5:22-23. The fruit of the Spirit.
7). Faith: Exodus 20; Deuteronomy 28; Luke 10:27. Our faith in God and adherence to His truth is the foundation for blessing and success in all walks of life. This is one major theme of the Bible. The Christian system of government as established in the United States of America had its origin predominantly as follows:
1). The Old Testament of the Bible,
2). The New Testament of the Bible,
3). Magna Carta of 1215,
4). Petition of Rights of 1628,
5). Habeas Corpus of 1679,
6). Bill of Rights of 1689,
7). Articles of Confederation of 1643‑1684,
8). Declaration of Independence of July 4, 1776,
9). Articles of Confedera�tion of 1781,
10). Constitution of the United States 1789,
11). Bill of Rights 1791.
Sir William Blackstone (1723‑1780), the famous English authority on jurisprudence, gives the following definition of Divine Law as it applies to human or man‑made laws:
"Disobedience to any one of the Divine Commandments throws the whole structure of national life out of harmony with universal law."
He also said:
"On account of the blindness and imperfection of human reasoning, God has given a Divine and direct revelation of His natural laws...to be found in the Scriptures THESE LAWS ARE SUPERIOR IN OBLIGATION and NO HUMAN LAWS HAVE ANY VALIDITY IF CONTRARY TO GOD'S LAWS."
Let's take a look at part of the original grants and charters, more of which will be presented later:
1). To Christopher Columbus, 1492:
"Ferdinand and Isabelle, BY THE GRACE OF GOD, King and Queen of Castile, of Arragon, of Scily...For as much as you, Christopher Columbus, are going by our command, with some of our vessels and men, to discover and subdue some Islands, and Continent in the ocean, and it is hoped that by GOD'S ASSISTANCE, some of the said Islands and Continent in the ocean will be discovered and conquered by your means and conduct..."
2). To Sir Humphry Gylberte, June 11, 1578:
"Elizabeth BY THE GRACE OF GOD, Queen of England.. do give and grant to our trusted and well‑beloved servant Sir Humphrey Gilbert of Compton, in our castle of Devonshire Knight, and to his heirs and assignes FOR EVER, free liberty and license from time to time, and at all times forever hereafter, to discover, find, search out, and view such remote, heathen and barbarous lands, countries, and territories NOT ACTUALLY POSSESSED OF ANY CHRISTIAN PRINCE OR PEOPLE...and forasmuch, as upon the finding out, discovering, and inhabiting of such remote lands, counties, and territories, as aforesaid, it will be necessary for the safety of all men that shall adventure themselves in those journeys or voyages, TO DETERMINE TO LIVE TOGETHER IN CHRISTIAN PEACE AND CIVIL QUIETNESS EACH WITH THE OTHER...according to such statutes, laws and ordinances, as shall by him, the said Sir Humphrey, his heirs and assignes, or ever, or any of them, devised or established for the better government of the said people as aforesaid: so always that the said statutes, laws, and ordinances may be as near as conveniently may, agreeable to the form of the laws and policy of England; and also, THAT THEY BE NOT AGAINST THE TRUE CHRISTIAN FAITH OR RELIGION NOW PROFESSED IN THE CHURCH OF ENGLAND."
3). First Charter of Virginia, April 10, 1606:
"I, James, BY THE GRACE OF GOD, King of England...We, greatly commending, and graciously accepting of, their Desires for the furtherance of so noble a Work, which may, by the PROVIDENCE OF ALMIGHTY GOD, hereafter tend to the Glory of his Divine Majesty, in the PROPAGATING OF CHRISTIAN RELIGION."
4). Sir Robert Heath by Charles 1st, Oct. 30, 1629:
"Whereas our beloved and faithful subject and servant, Sir Robert Heath Knight our Attorney General, kindled with a certain laudable and pious desire as well of ENLARGING THE CHRISTIAN RELIGION..."
5). Orders of Connecticut, January 14, 1639:
"Forasmuch as it hath pleased the ALMIGHTY GOD by the wise disposition of His Divine Providence so to order and dispose of things that we, the Inhabitants and residents of Winsor, Hartford and Wethersfield, are now cohabiting and dwelling in and upon the River of Connecticut and the Lands there unto adjoining; and well knowing where a people are gathered together THE WORD OF GOD REQUIRES that to maintain the peace and union of such a people THERE SHOULD BE AN ORDERLY AND DECENT GOVERNMENT ESTABLISHED ACCORDING TO GOD, to order and dispose of the affaires of the people at all seasons as occasion shall require; do therefore associate and conjoin ourselves to be as one Public State or Commonwealth; and do, for our selves and our successors and such as shall be adjoined to us at any time hereafter enter into Combination and Confederation together, TO MAINTAIN AND PRESERVE THE LIBERTY AND PURITY OF THE GOSPEL OF OUR LORD JESUS WHICH WE NOW PROFESS as also the discipline of the churches, which according to the truth of the said gospel is now practiced amongst us..."
6). Articles of Confederation, 1643‑1684:
"Whereas we all come into these parts of America with one and the same end and aim, NAMELY, TO ADVANCE THE KINGDOM OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST and TO ENJOY THE LIBERTIES OF THE GOSPEL in purity with peace...that, AS IN NATION AND RELIGION, SO IN OTHER RESPECTS, WE BE AND CONTINUE ONE according to the tenor and true meaning of the ensuing articles...The said United Colonies for themselves and their posterities do jointly and severally hereby enter into a firm and perpetual league of friendship and amity for offence and defense, mutual advice and succor upon all just occasions BOTH FOR PRESERVING AND PROPAGATING THE TRUTH AND LIBERTIES OF THE GOSPEL and for their own mutual safety and welfare."
There is no doubt, and it is clearly apparent the colonist knew they were to establish a theocratic form of government which was to conform to the Word of God, that they were, in actuality reestablishing the Kingdom of God on Earth, over which our Lord Jesus Christ will reign when He returns to claim His rightful place over His Israel People: The Anglo‑Saxon, Germanic, Scandinavian, Celtic and kindred peoples of the earth. Common Law rights were protected by the Northwest Ordinance of 1787. This is a Key Document establishing our right to Common Law Judicial proceedings.
��������������������������������� The Liberty Bell
On July 8th, 1776 A.D., the �Liberty Bell� pealed forth, summoning the people to assemble to hear the reading of the Declaration of Independence. Cast into that historical bell is a statement from the Great Jubilee call to Israel, �Proclaim liberty throughout the land unto all the inhabitants thereof.� The full text of that Jubilee call of rejoicing can be found in Leviticus 25:10. Our forefather coveted these blessings and fought and died that they might bring to fruition the liberty which they had proclaimed and make possible the continuation of freedom for their posterity.
They knew and honored the scripture which states:
�Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.� (2 Corinthians 3:17)
It is well that we remember in these critical days that all which is good and true and fine is not acquired by indolence nor retained by indifference. Even though we received liberty as a gift Yahweh and our forefathers, it cannot long be enjoyed by a people who fail to appreciate its blessings. Let us never forget that eternal vigilance is the price of retaining such a heritage. If we neglect to carefully guard our inheritance it will one day become but a legion of the past, for nothing worth while will perpetuate itself.
We are continually told by the antichrists and their lap-dogs, boot-licks and traitors, the Judeo-Christian clergy and of our own race, that our strength is in diversity; which is a damnable and provable lie. History amply testifies in the wreckage of ancient civilizations strewn along the shores of time that, unless a people are as vigilant in steering a course as they were when setting forth upon a venture, race mixing and disaster is inevitable. There must ever be a source of power to propel and a mind to continually direct the ship of state that it may keep to the deep channels of liberty and freedom and thus avoid the shoals of tyranny and oppression.
The greatest of all dangers confronting the United States today is not our enemies but an indifferent citizenry who, enjoying the blessings of liberty and freedom, are failing to be vigilant and alert that they might continue to enjoy their Yahweh given heritage.
Lest we forget; Liberty is easily lost and hard to regain. If men become so engrossed with the trivial things of life in their business and social activities that they neglect to guard the greater principle of justice, equity and peace, they will have no one but themselves to blame if the Bible and their constitution is ground under the iron heel of a Dictator; their property confiscated and they and their loved ones enslaved. Because our people have been asleep we are perilously near such conditions now. May America awaken to the seriousness of these evil times for tomorrow it will be too late.
An Ordinance was passed by the Congress of the United States. Article 5 provided for the creating of a maximum of five states which later became; Ohio, Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin and Minnesota. The last words of the introduction or preamble to the Articles of the Ordinance, are as follows:
"It is hereby ordained and declared by the authority aforesaid, That the following article shall be considered as articles of compact between the original States in said territory AND FOREVER REMAIN UNALTERABLE, UNLESS BY COMMON CONSENT, TO WIT."
These articles HAVE NEVER BEEN ALTERED BY COMMON CONSENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER AND PRESENTLY REMAIN THE LAW OF THE LAND. They may be found in the original forty‑eight states Compiled Laws if you were to check. Some points concerning the validity of the ordinance that should be considered is:
a). It is a Federal Statute. The preamble reads forever unalterable. It is in the Compiled Laws of many States. and it is protected by Article 4, Section 2, Part 1 of the Constitution of the United States and reads as follows:
"The citizens of each state shall be entitled to all privileges of citizens in the several states."
Article 1, states:
"No person, demeaning himself in a peaceable and orderly manner, shall ever be molested on account of his mode of worship or religious sentiments, in the said territory."
Article 2, states:
"The inhabitants of the said territory shall always be entitled to the benefits of the writ of habeas corpus, and of the trial by jury...and of judicial proceedings according to the course of the Common Law..."
We should remind you that the Old Testament is the original source of Common Law and is found in the books of Leviticus and Deuteronomy. The definitions of Noah Websters original finalized dictionary in 1828 were adopted by Congress and by the courts. His definitions were Common Law definitions and established a unity of language for the United States of America
The Republican form of limited government, just as established by our ancient Israelite ancestors, while encamped by Mount Sinai, was established upon the premise:
That each and every individual is the creation of the Almighty God, that each and every one has a separate and equal station to which the Laws of God entitle them. All men are created equal and endowed by their Creator with certain Inalienable Rights that are not to be encroached or infringed upon by another group, individual, or government. Among those rights are Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness [the ownership of land].
Governments are formed for the express purpose of protecting those rights, maintaining the peace, and keeping law and order. The Government formed derives its just Powers from the Consent of the Governed themselves. When the Governing faction becomes abusive and destructive of these Ends delegated to them by the citizens it is the responsibility, right and duty of the people to dissolve, alter, or abolish it and institute New government which will provide safe guards for their future security.
"For rulers [government leaders] are not a terror to good works, but to the evil...For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil." (Romans 13:3‑4)
This simply means the Government was formed by the People through a written contact, Compact, or Constitution within which the people delegate to the elected or appointed representation presiding over the Government for the People the Laws, Rules, and Regulations of power and authority they may exercise.
The various governing bodies such as the Executive, the Legislative, and the Judicial of the Federal, State, county and local Municipalities must restrict their operations to within the boundaries of authority delegated them by the People unless changed by the People themselves.
This is the principle describe in detail within the Declaration, the Articles of Confederation, the Northwest Ordnance, the Constitution of the United States of America and the first ten amendments known as The Bill of Rights. The Constitution of the United States being the Supreme Law of the Land, until Christ returns, as is the added Ten Amendments both have a Preamble that illustrates its personal Spirit and Intent.
"WE THE PEOPLE of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."
This emphases the fact that Government is established by the People, having only powers and authority delegated to it by the People by Contact and it is to be contained within those boundaries. The Preamble to the Ten Amendments known as The Bill of Rights is as follows:
"The conventions of a number of the States having at the time of their adopting the Constitution expressed a desire, IN ORDER TO PREVENT MISCONSTRUC�TION or ABUSE OF ITS POWER, that FURTHER DECLARATORY AND RESTRICTIVE CLAUSES SHOULD BE ADDED: And as extending the ground of public confidence in the Government will best insure the beneficent ends of its institution..."
This preamble explains the Bill of Rights as being "Further Declaratory and Restrictive clauses" for the purpose of preventing "Misconstruction or Abuse" of Constitutional power. Our forefathers knew that Constitutional power can be misconstructed or abused by those who are in the seat of governing authority, even though placed there by the people who pay the bills, elect, appoint, or hire them. These are Public Servants to be tried by the People themselves when found to be destroying, subverting, or changing the delegated authority by Constitutional Contract. The Laws of God intended that in each and every case the position of central authority for earthly government should be vested within the people, and no one else.
This was consistent with the constitution because it did not recognize one denomination over another or require you to belong to any particular denomination. But it did require that you understand God's principles and God as authority. They recognized that to be governed by someone without these principles would eventually undermine and destroy the very freedoms that they had fought so hard to gain.
A 3rd requirement in their Constitution was a requirement that every public official must acknowledge a belief in future rewards & punishments. This was the idea of accountability to God even after leaving office.
Ungodly people will not use Godly principles to run a Nation as we can see by the current administration, for it condones murder, thefts, subterfuge, and treason. That's why the Founders were so emphatic about keeping Christian men in office. If you look at it from the standpoint that God will only bless a Nation operating under Godly principles, you can see how important it is to have Christian people in office.
Does A Nation Answer To God?: This was a question the American Founders dealt with on the floor of the Constitutional Convention. They concluded that a nation doesn't have a spirit or a soul. Therefore when a nation dies, it is dead and won't be resurrected later to answer for it's failures, as a person will be who does have a spirit & soul.
George Mason said:
"As nations cannot be punished or rewarded in the next world, they must be in this. By an inevitable chain of causes & effects Providence punished National sins by National calamities."
Providence was commonly used by the Founders to refer to God. God's judgement on a Nation because of it's corrupt leaders is evidenced many places in the Bible. A couple of them are:
1). Because of the corruption of King Ahab and his wife Jezebel, the nation went without rain for three years. The righteous had to suffer too even though they had no part in it.
2). King David was normally good King, but because of his disobedience to God when he numbered his army, a plague came upon the nation and wiped out 70,000 people. The Nation suffered because of the leader.
Benjamin Franklin ‑ JUNE 17,1787:
"We need God as our friend not our enemy. We need him to be our ally not our adversary. We need to make sure that we keep God's concurring aid."
He called for regular daily prayer to be sure we kept God alongside what we were doing in the Nation. If this was needed by our leaders, why would it not be good for children to be able to pray in school and learn & prepare for this important facet of life?
Thomas Jefferson Memorial: Part of the inscription on Jefferson's Memorial:
"Indeed, I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just, and that His justice can't sleep forever."
Benjamin Franklin: As Ambassador to France:
�Whoever will introduce into public affairs the principles of Christianity will change the face of the world."
Charles Finney: A great spiritual leader of the 1800's :
"The Church must take right ground in regard to politics. Politics are a part of a religion in a country and Christians must do their duty to the country as part of their duty to God. He will bless or curse this nation according to the course Christians take in politics."
If God's people don't make it into office, God's principles won't make it into office.
We Must Not Be Isolated, We Must Get Involved! Proverbs 18:1
"A man who isolates himself seeks his own desires; he rages against all wise judgements."
Apparently there are people that do not want us to know what the Constitution, the Bible and our Founding Fathers really said, or that our freedom and liberty is based on God's principles put in place by Christians. Instead they use these freedoms to fight against Christians and God's principles, to take away freedoms the Founders sought to guarantee.
Christians used to be involved in politics, but they have been discouraged from doing so for the last 50 years or so. Even earlier there was a controversy among Christians about where they should be involved to do the most good. The emphasis was on being an Evangelist, Missionary, Doctor, or Teacher, but not a Politician.
When Christians started moving out and not running for government office, they turned it over to people who didn't believe in many of the Godly principles that had been so important in it's founding.
There Will Always Be A Religion In The Schools, If It Is Not Christian It Will Be Humanism, Atheism or the Anti-Christ Judaism.
1963 & 1986 Supreme Court: Rulings defined Secular Humanism as a legitimate religion, lawfully equivalent to Christianity. The religion of Secular Humanism rejects the supernatural in their philosophy and places man as supreme, and able to control his own destiny.
1977 Supreme Court: Ruled that Atheism is a legitimate religion, lawfully equivalent to Christianity. Atheism says there is no God and therefor should be no practice of religion. The Court said that whatever you believe with all your heart that affects the way you act, that's your religion.
Satanic activity and Witchcraft are other religions that are recognized and receive tax‑exempt status as well. However the only time you hear the cry of "separation of Church� and State" is to get Christian materials, etc. out of schools.
If all form of religion needs to be removed from schools, why is not the cry used against representation of witches on Halloween? Or when there is no prayer and practice of believing in God going on in the school, why not cry out against the religion of Atheism or Humanism, which is the religion of exclusion of God.
Non‑recognition of God is being practiced every day in schools and it is being forced on all, including those who desire to pray and read the Bible. Christians are attacked for believing in the religion upon which America was founded while other religions are being allowed with no comment. An American should be able to speak of his roots in Christianity proudly and it should be taught in the schools.
To refer to God's principles in the Bible is to stand for what made America a free country, with liberty for all. To reject the Scriptures is to reject our heritage and the foundation principles which men fought and died for to obtain.
What is called right‑wing extremism today by intolerant liberals is really a mis‑label. It is really what this country was founded upon and was the normal middle of the road conservatism for a long time afterward. It is the extremists that have put the label on, to divert attention from their own far out position (with respect to the Founders) of Secular Humanism & Atheism.
Separation of Church & State is not a part of our history and not a part of our law until relatively recently. It is certainly not Biblical, and most people don't know that it was lifted from Jefferson's letter out of context to say the opposite of what the rest of his letter says.
The religion of Christianity and the Biblical principles were the very basis for the Constitution & held in the highest regard by the writers of the Constitution. They so wanted it to remain a part of the government and the schooling that it is outrageous that we are having censorship today of their writings which are in support of Christianity and the Bible.
It is intolerable that the Supreme Court could get away with a decision that is in total disagreement with the Constitution. It can't be emphasized too much that the Constitution and the Founder's intentions were to protect the exercise of Christianity in the government. Any ruling otherwise is inconsistent with the Constitution, and is a deliberate distortion without any basis.
The 1963 decision that was based on no precedent and is now used as a precedent for everything since, needs to be shown for what it is. It was a total reversal from what was right, and another reversal is necessary to put it back right. We have a Godly heritage which has been robbed from us by the 3% who made a lot of noise about "separation of Church & State." The only way to reverse this trend is to get informed about the truth of our heritage and start fighting to gain it back. (Taken, in part, from a video by David Barton)
They Have Always Been Our Enemy
The 83rd Psalm can be seen in the world today, as much as it ever did in the day it was written.
�1). Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God.
Psalm 109:1‑3: �Hold not thy peace, O God of my praise; For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened against me: they have spoken against me with a lying tongue. They compassed me about also with words of hatred; and fought against me without a cause.�
2). For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head.
Psalm 74:4: �Thine enemies roar in the midst of thy congregations; they set up their ensigns for signs.�
3). They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones.
Lamentations 2:16: �All thine enemies have opened their mouth against thee: they hiss and gnash the teeth: they say, We have swallowed her up: certainly this is the day that we looked for; we have found, we have seen it.�
4). They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.
Psalm 94:23: �And he shall bring upon them their own iniquity, and shall cut them off in their own wickedness; yea, the LORD our God shall cut them off.�
5). For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee:
Psalm 2:2‑3: �The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying, Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.�
6). The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes;
2 Chronicles 20:1: �It came to pass after this also, that the children of Moab, and the children of Ammon, and with them other beside the Ammonites, came against Jehoshaphat to battle.�
2 Chronicles 20:10: �And now, behold, the children of Ammon and Moab and mount Seir, whom thou wouldest not let Israel invade, when they came out of the land of Egypt, but they turned from them, and destroyed them not.�
7). Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;
Ezekiel 26:2‑4: �Son of man, because that Tyrus hath said against Jerusalem, Aha, she is broken that was the gates of the people: she is turned unto me: I shall be replenished, now she is laid waste: Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Tyrus, and will cause many nations to come up against thee, as the sea causeth his waves to come up. And they shall destroy the walls of Tyrus, and break down her towers: I will also scrape her dust from her, and make her like the top of a rock.�
8). Assur also is joined with them: they have holpen the children of Lot. Selah.
Genesis 19:36‑38: �Thus were both the daughters of Lot with child by their father. And the firstborn bare a son, and called his name Moab: the same is the father of the Moabites unto this day. And the younger, she also bare a son, and called his name Benammi: the same is the father of the children of Ammon unto this day.�
9). Do unto them as unto the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison:
Judges 5:21: �The river of Kishon swept them away, that ancient river, the river Kishon. O my soul, thou hast trodden down strength.�
10). Which perished at Endor: they became as dung for the earth.
1 Samuel 28:7: �Then said Saul unto his servants, Seek me a woman that hath a familiar spirit, that I may go to her, and inquire of her. And his servants said to him, Behold, there is a woman that hath a familiar spirit at Endor.�
Jeremiah 8:1‑3: �At that time, saith the LORD, they shall bring out the bones of the kings of Judah, and the bones of his princes, and the bones of the priests, and the bones of the prophets, and the bones OF THE INHABITANTS OF JERUSALEM, out of their graves: And they shall spread them before the sun, and the moon, and all the host of heaven, whom they have loved, and whom they have served, and after whom they have walked, and whom they have sought, and whom they have worshiped: THEY SHALL NOT BE GATHERED, NOR BE BURIED; THEY SHALL BE FOR DUNG UPON THE FACE OF THE EARTH. (This is what will happen to the jews that are in the Old Jerusalem now) And death shall be chosen rather than life by all the residue of them that remain of this evil family, which remain in all the places whither I have driven them, saith the LORD of hosts.�
11). Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna:
Judges 7:25: �And they took two princes of the Midianites, Oreb and Zeeb; and they slew Oreb upon the rock Oreb, and Zeeb they slew at the winepress of Zeeb, and pursued Midian, and brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon on the other side Jordan.�
12). Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession.
Psalm 74:1‑10: �O God, why hast thou cast us off for ever? why doth thine anger smoke against the sheep of thy pasture? Remember thy congregation, which thou hast purchased of old; the rod of thine inheritance, which thou hast redeemed; this mount Zion, wherein thou hast dwelt. Lift up thy feet unto the perpetual desolations; even all that the enemy hath done wickedly in the sanctuary. Thine enemies roar in the midst of thy congregations; they set up their ensigns for signs...They have cast fire into thy sanctuary, THEY HAVE DEFILED BY CASTING DOWN THE DWELLING PLACE OF THY NAME TO THE GROUND. THEY SAID IN THEIR HEARTS, LET US DESTROY THEM TOGETHER: THEY HAVE BURNED UP ALL THE SYNAGOGUES OF GOD IN THE LAND. We see not our signs: there is no more any prophet: neither is there among us any that knoweth how long. O God, how long shall the adversary reproach? shall the enemy blaspheme thy name for ever?�
13). O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.
Isaiah 17:12‑14: �Woe to the multitude of many people, which make a noise like the noise of the seas; and to the rushing of nations, that make a rushing like the rushing of mighty waters! The nations shall rush like the rushing of many waters: but God shall rebuke them, and they shall flee far off, and shall be chased as the chaff of the mountains before the wind, and like a rolling thing before the whirlwind. And behold at eveningtide trouble; and before the morning he is not. This is the portion of them that spoil us, and the lot of them that rob us.�
14). As the fire burneth a wood, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire;
Deuteronomy 32:22: �For a fire is kindled in mine anger, and shall burn unto the lowest hell, and shall consume the earth with her increase, and set on fire the foundations of the mountains.�
15). So persecute them with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm.
Job 27:19‑23: �The rich man shall lie down, but he shall not be gathered: he openeth his eyes, and he is not. Terrors take hold on him as waters, a tempest stealeth him away in the night. The east wind carrieth him away, and he departeth: and as a storm hurleth him out of his place. For God shall cast upon him, and not spare: he would fain flee out of his hand. Men shall clap their hands at him, and shall hiss him out of his place.�
16). Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek thy name, O LORD.
2 Thessalonians 3:14: �And if any man obey not our word by this epistle, note that man, and have no company with him, that he may be ashamed.�
17). Let them be confounded and troubled for ever; yea, let them be put to shame, and perish:
Psalm 35:4‑8: �Let them be confounded and put to shame that seek after my soul: let them be turned back and brought to confusion that devise my hurt. Let them be as chaff before the wind: and let the angel of the LORD chase them. Let their way be dark and slippery: and let the angel of the LORD persecute them. For without cause have they hid for me their net in a pit, which without cause they have digged for my soul. Let destruction come upon him at unawares; and let his net that he hath hid catch himself: into that very destruction let him fall.�
18). That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth.�
Psalm 92:8‑9: �But thou, LORD, art most high for evermore. For, lo, thine enemies, O LORD, for, lo, thine enemies shall perish; all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.�
This Psalm is described in Gore�s new Commentary as a prayer for the destruction of foreign nations who are confederated against Israel, and points out that these confederated nations, in binding themselves against True Israel, are, in effect opposing Yahweh Himself.
There can be no doubt in the minds of thinking people, particularly among those who have a knowledge of the truth of the Bible, and, therefore, an understanding of the meaning of the Divine plan and purpose in Israel�s history, that the sentiments expressed by the Psalmist are very applicable to conditions as they are today.
It is now definitely established that the world is divided, as has been pointed out many times that there is a WAR going on between two hostile camps. The one group has a basic ideology, generally termed Judaism or Communism, the source of its whole philosophy and policies, which is diametrically opposed to the principles belonging to the True Israel people, the other group, which is, at least nominally, Christian.
We use this last phrase advisedly because there is no doubt that most of the people who confess to be Christian are Christian in name only and only do lip service to Yahweh; while at the same time the principles of the Kingdom of Yahweh, as enunciated by Him, have not been applied, and are not being applied to the administration of individual, national and international affairs. As a result we are witnessing what can be called a lamentable lack of understanding, with complete inability on the part of our leaders and people alike to find a way out of the present difficult position, domestic and national, in which we find ourselves involved.
Nor will they ever be able to find a way out, until they destroy and run the antichrist elements in our city, state, and federal governments; and return to Yahweh with all our hearts and call upon His Name. As we are told in:
2 Chronicles 7:14: �If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.�
Once again we need to be reminded that this situation is directly in accord with and indeed, the fulfillment of the sentence of Yahweh, who declares.
Isaiah 29:13‑14: �Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men: Therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvelous work among this people, even a marvelous work and a wonder: for the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid.�
That wisdom and understanding are lacking in relation to present world conditions is abundantly clear and is due in a large part because of the treasonous, deceptive, perverted, false teachings of the Judeo-Christian clergy. You see, it is absolutely essential to realize that the coming great struggle, which is to be the final end of the conflict between good and evil that has been waged all down through the ages, from Genesis 3:15, is definitely a spiritual conflict with a material and physical enemy. No new world order can come into being upon the foundations of that which now exists; nor can there be any patching up of an outworn system. Before the New Order can function, as it is meant to do by the jews and their boot-licks, and lap-dogs, the Judeo-Christian clergy and other traitors of our race; there must be a complete elimination of the evil forces which are arrayed against Yahweh, and which are determined to frustrate and destroy His Divine purpose.
It may be asked how it is possible to suggest that the 83rd Psalm to which we are referring can refer to present conditions in the modern day Israel nations, and to the enemies who plot its destruction both from without and within.
We know, of course, that this truth is not generally believed. We know that when the statement strikes the eyes of a good many readers there is a cynical sneer of unbelief, and that, if it reaches the attention of those who are charged with the instruction of people in the basic truths of the Bible, the Judeo-Christian clergy, it will be openly derided as it has been in the past. But neither cynicism, ridicule, nor disbelief can be destroy the truth; and it is the truth that Yahweh brought into being in a very miraculous and wonderful way, with a specific purpose, a people whom He charged with the responsibility of being His agents and watchmen. They have been, and are, charged with the responsibility of being the nucleus of the Kingdom of Yahweh functioning here upon earth.
The nation so conceived, established and operative was Israel (and by that we don�t mean that little bastard nation, known to the world today as Israel in the middle east), and to Israel Yahweh made the solemn promise of perpetuity, both with regard to its national existence and to the monarchial system of government which He established in the House of David.
The promise of perpetuity of existence naturally followed the covenant entered into by Yahweh with the progenitor of Israel, the patriarch Abraham. This covenant was ratified and confirmed to Isaac, and Jacob, whose name was changed to Israel, and stands for all time. It was a covenant which, as the writer of the Epistle to the Hebrews declares, was made absolutely immutable; i.e., unchanging and unending, by the oath of Yahweh Himself.
It follows, then, that Israel shared with the same duty and responsibility, in possession of the Throne of David (presently to be occupied by Him whose right it is, Yahshua, the coming King), is in existence today, and it also follows that the age old enemies of Israel, in their modern form, with the same purpose, which is the annihilation of Israel and the thwarting of the Divine plan and purpose, are also present somewhere on this earth.
Further, it is absolutely evident that there can be no possible deliverance form the attack of the enemy on the basis of purely physical and material strength alone. Israel can only be saved from her enemies; saved to carry out the task and responsibility which is hers, by the help of Yahweh. This Yahweh has promised for the asking, ut the petition must be made as a result of the realization of the nature of the service demanded, and also of the fact that such service mut be rendered as unto Yahweh, not as unto men.
The Israel Nations are busily engaged at the moment in strengthening their defenses, in the increasing military power, and in forming unions among themselves and with other peoples in a desperate attempt to, if possible, forestall that attack of the enemy and, if necessary, to resist the attack about to be made against them.
It is essential however, that something more, in fact, a very great deal more should be done. Yahweh must be recognized as the King over His Israel people. His purpose must be understood as being as real and applicable today as when first administered, and an appeal for help to Him must be based upon the determination and expressed willingness to obey His will.
The hearts of the people comprising Israel must be set on fire with the desire to serve Yahweh and obey His will. It is a remarkable thing that the antichrist forces are fired with an enthusiasm and determination which, at present, is entirely lacking on the part of those who profess and call themselves Christians.
As has recently been said by a well-known publicist,
�The Nations need a great awakening if the material plans now being devised by strategists, economists and statesmen are to prove effective. The great nations of ancient Christendom and the vigorous peoples of the new world both alike need to be set aflame if civilization is to be saved. No material forces will prove strong enough for the incalculable tasks which lie ahead.� (Pat Buchanan)
Such an awakening, of course, must begin with the individual, but it must be remembered that the individual is a unit in national life. There is a definite relationship to Yahweh which must be recognized and observed by the nation. Just as exactly as we apply matters which are entirely material to the national aspect of life, so we must remember that in spiritual matters the same practice must be followed, for Yahweh has laid down definite spiritual requirements for the nation apart from those which belong purely to the regulation of the spiritual conduct of individuals, and which are just as binding.
When the nation Israel was established, it was brought into being on the foundation of national obedience to the Divine Law, and when the inauguration of the nation took place, the people accepted the responsibility and declared, �All the Lord hath spoken, we will do.� (Exodus 19:18)
Here was an undertaking both on the part of the individual and the nation to keep the commandments, statutes and judgments of the Law of Yahweh. As long as this was done the armies of Israel were able to defend themselves against attack, but when any dereliction occurred, Israel was unable to stand before the enemy.
Wile it is absolutely essential to remember that we are not, and shall not be, immune from attack, Yahweh has definitely promised to do for us what we are unable to do for ourselves. He reminds us that what Yahweh says and does will be far more important in the Great and Terrible Day of Yahweh than what apostate men will attempt to do
What Yahweh does is absolutely contingent upon obedience to His will; for when Israel failed to keep and administer Yahweh�s Law, they were charged with failure and punishment followed.
Our national sin today consists, as did that of Israel of old, of setting aside the Divine administration and assuming that, as nation, we have the right to set up laws and systems of administration which will take the place of the God-given statutes and judgments. There must be, then, if we desire deliverance a great national spiritual awakening to the need for restoration of the Divine administration. Yahweh has declared that, as soon as we make the inquiry of Him to do it for us, He will respond. Prayers for peace will not avail until there is a national return to Almighty God in humble obedience to His Will, for prayers for peace cannot be answered as long as the nation continues to violate a solemn obligation which is just as binding upon it today as it was when first undertaken by its progenitors at Mount Sinai.
Let us remember that the deliverance is ours for the asking. What Yahweh has promised He will most surely perform, for He says:
