12 Now the Lord said to Abram, “Go from your country and your kindred and your father’s house to the land that I will show you. 2 And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you and make your name great, so that you will be a blessing. 3 I will bless those who bless you, and him who dishonors you I will curse, and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”
All of my adult life I have watched with stunned incredulity, as Liberal Americans have vocally castigated the country of Israel for defending themselves against the violent factions of once-nomadic tribes, who wish for nothing else than the annihilation of both the country of Israel and their citizenry.
The irony of their naiveté, is the fact that, in the 1960’s, American Liberals were among some of Israel’s strongest supporters.
However, as of this writing, they have led a surge of anti-semitism and are backing the Palestinians and the Terrorist Organization known as Hamas, which the overwhelming majority of the Palestinians voted into office.
Opposing God’s Chosen People and supporting the historically nomadic people that call themselves “Palestinians” fits with today’s Far Left Democrats’ Political Ideology, which views modern political struggles as “Class Warfare”, being waged between race and ethnic groups. They believe that the predominantly white West is somehow subjugating the non-white rest of the world. This viewpoint is an extension of the class-based, rich versus poor, categories, which they intentionally classify people in, following the example of their fallen messiah, Former President Barack Hussein Obama (mm mmm mmmm) and the professional spokespeople and agitators who have been allowed in this country under the guise of diversity.
We sit in a country that has been split wide open by this polarizing political ideology, which ignores the principles, traditions, and values, both religious and secular, that America was founded on.
America was founded by Christian men and women. Don’t let anyone tell you differently.
Our first President, George Washington, would reflect on the blessings which the Creator had bestowed upon this country in his speeches, as has every president after him until very recently.
For this current president to stand with radical Islamic terrorists who slaughtered 1,300 innocent Israelis is not only disgusting, it’s abhorrent.
This should not be happening here in the country that was once known as the Shining City Upon a Hill.
America has been tarnished with evil politicians who think only of power, money, and prestige.
We also have an issue with the younger generation who were not raised in the way in which they should go.
As I’ve said before, they are a bunch of useful idiots who the Far Left and professional agitators from other countries are using to “radically change” our Sovereign Nation.
And now, the President of the United States of America, in his senile old age, is standing with them because his handlers have told them that he needs their support in order to be reelected, so that they can further their plans to build a totalitarian government which will only increase their power and their time in office in Washington, DC.
The Republicans in the House of Representatives are working on impeaching Biden over withholding weapons from our greatest ally, israel.
This will not work because the Democrats and the Vichy Republicans will not vote to move it forward.
The only way that we are going to change the downhill trajectory of our Sovereign Nation is to return to the Faith of our Founding Fathers and to change who is the president of our country.
The latest campaign strategy for Biden and Harris is to go on to talk shows and give speeches concerning how Trump is a “threat to Democracy” The past 4 years prove that that is a complete and total lie. This Presidential Administration will go down as the worst in American history.
Donald J Trump has been a threat to the Washington Status Quo and the New Aristocracy ever since he came down that escalator to announce he was running for president the first time.
Those who want to control us from cradled grave will do everything they can in order to stop him from becoming president again. If we want America to remain a free Constitutional Republic, we must elect Donald J Trump as President of the United States of America again.
“A recent poll reportedly found that a large percentage of registered voters believe that Jesus Christ physically rose from the dead.
The news comes as Easter approaches.
The Daily Signal, citing a Scott Rasmussen National Survey poll, reported Thursday that almost 70 percent of registered voters believe in Jesus’ bodily resurrection, while over 70 percent say they will be celebrating Easter on Sunday.
The outlet said the survey was conducted on March 20 and 21 with 1,000 registered voters.
The article also said:
Respondents were asked whether a series of statements were true or false. They were asked to evaluate whether “the man known to history as Jesus Christ actually existed and walked the earth,” or not.
By a margin of 83% to 5%, voters said they believe that Jesus Christ did in fact exist and walked the earth.
The margin of error for the survey was plus or minus 3.1 percentage points, according to Rasmussen.
Meanwhile, a Pew Research Center report said a record high number of Americans say the role of religion in public life is waning and many believe it is a negative thing for people across the nation, according to a Breitbart News article published March 19.
“According to the survey, 57 percent of Americans believe religion plays a positive role in public life, while only 19 percent have a negative view of the role of religion,” Breitbart News’s Thomas D. Williams reported.
In 2023, a WSJ/NORC poll found that the happiest people residing in the United States place greater value on religious belief than those who are unhappy in life, per Breitbart News:
The highest correlation for people saying they are “very happy” is belief in God, with 68 percent of this group declaring belief in God to be “very important” to them. By contrast, among those who are not happy, fewer than half (42 percent) say faith in God is very important to them.” (Courtesy Breitbart.com)
So, when is all this Christianity in America going to “fade away” as predicted by “the Smartest People in the Room”?
As the poll in the above article shows…while some have forsworn their Christian Heritage, the majority of Americans still proclaim Jesus Christ as their Personal Savior and believe in God Almighty.
However, if you read some of the comments posted on Conservative Websites and Facebook Political Pages by self-appointed “pundits”, you would think that Christian Americans are the minority in this nation.
I can testify from personal experience, having caught flack for sticking to my Christian American Conservative Principles, since beginning my posts in April of 2010.
My posts, concerning American Christianity, seem to “touch a nerve” in both Liberals and Atheists, alike. (But, in at least some cases, I repeat myself.)
Their reaction has hardly been unexpected.
Of course, one of the Hot Button Issues, which those Liberals and Atheists who responded, over the years, immediately denied, was that our Founding Fathers were Christians and that our country was founded on a Judeo-Christian Belief System.
Evidently, they had never read anything, except what their like-minded, non-believing soothsayers, allowed them to.
Atheist Activists and young and/or misinformed Liberals and self-proclaimed “Libertarians” (but, in a lot of cases, I repeat myself), who reply to my posts, insist that Crosses and other Christian symbols have no place in the Public Square.
Relying on Far Left Ideologues or their own opinion as their “highest authority”, they continue their push to eliminate the practice of American Christianity and the Traditional American Morality and Ethics which go with it from Everyday American Life, attempting to regulate Christians’ role in American Society as remaining unseen and unheard from, worshiping in private, on Sunday mornings, only.
Or, as Actor and Professional Wrestler Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson would say, the Democrat Elite wants American Christians to
“Sit down, shut up, and know your role!”
Unfortunately for them, the First Amendment to the Constitution still holds. “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”
Far Left Democrats seem to have great difficulty comprehending the role that Our Creator, the God of Abraham, played and plays in this Grand Experiment, known as the United States of America.
Why have Far Left Democrats ratcheted up their anti-Christian Vitriol and Negativity since January 21, 2009?
Why are they so focused on removing America’s Christian Heritage?
Well, as is usually my wont, I have been doing some “reckoning” about this.
It seems to this ol’ Southern Boy, living here in the Heartland, that America’s Christian Heritage and the very real fact of His influence in building and shaping America’s growth into the greatest country on the face of God’s Green Earth, not only stifles and interferes with Modern Liberals’ “anything goes”, “share the wealth”, “hive-mind”, “man is his own god” Political Ideology, but the reality of God’s very existence, somewhere deep in their miserable, bitter psyches, scares the mess out of them.
Why else would they be trying so hard to fight against the influence of Someone Whom they really don’t believe in?
I see them every single day on the television, on the Internet, on Facebook Political Pages, posting stupid meme (a picture with words on it) after stupid meme, attempting to make fun of The Great I Am and those of us who have given our lives to Him.
They are so hateful and filled with such bitterness that it is difficult to engage them in “conversation”.
Perhaps, somewhere in their back of their minds, all of these Modern Far Left Democrats realize that they are fighting a losing battle.
Christianity continues to exist in America despite their best efforts.
For, as the late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia stated so eloquently, “God has been very good to us America was built upon a Solid Rock. To ignore our nation’s Faith-Based Founding and Heritage is to live in purposeful ignorance.”
As President Ronald Reagan said, “If we ever forget that we are One Nation Under God, then we will be a nation gone under.”
And, as Hebrews 13:8 tells us, “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.”
Regardless of the political machinations of Modern American Liberals, God will have the final word as to our country’s future.
Several years ago, a good friend of mine had this analogy posted on his file cabinet at work. It remains on point to this very day:
“Let’s pretend I broke into your house. When you discover me there, you insist I leave. But I say, “I’ve made all the beds, washed the dishes, did the laundry, and cleaned the floors; I’ve done all the work you don’t like to do. I’m hardworking and honest (except for breaking into your house). Not only must you let me stay, you must also add me to your insurance plan, educate my kids, and provide these benefits to my husband, too (he will do your yard work, he’s honest and hardworking too–except for that breaking in part). If you try to force me out, I will call my friends who will picket your house and proclaim my right to be there! It’s only fair, because you have a nicer house than I do, and I’m trying to better myself. I’m hardworking and honest…except for, well, you know. I will live in your house, contributing only a fraction of the cost of my keep, and there is nothing you can do about it without being accused of selfishness and prejudice.
Oh yeah, I want you to learn my language so you can communicate with me.”
Good plan…don’t you think?
Is this behavior we should be rewarding?”
The Democrat Elite who control the Puppet President sure do.
However, American voters do not.
“Polls show immigration is a major political vulnerability for Biden. He has just an 18% approval rating on the issue, the lowest for any president since ABC News and the Washington Post began asking the question in January 2004.”
Every time that Democrat Elite decide what is good for this country and especially for their pocketbooks and political power, average Americans suffer
Biden’s border policy is backfiring big time.
His handlers made the mistake of attempting to take away the right of Americans to defend themselves from Foreign Invaders.
27 State Governors have signed a petition supporting Governor Abbott abd Texas in their battle against the Biden Administration to secure our Southern Border.
The Battle On the Border has become very public for the entire country to see and American citizens do not like what they’re seeing.
Just as when Davy Crockett and his band of Tennessee Volunteers went to help Sam Houston and his brave men defend Texas from Santa Ana and his troops, Americans are rallying around Texas.
American citizens are tired of their hard-earned money being given to these Foreign Invaders who are coming in over our wide open Southern Border and are being given money, cell phones, health care, free rooms in Five-Star Hotels, and free transportation to wherever they want to go
Meanwhile, American citizens are working our butts off trying to keep our heads above water while spending our savings and maxing out our credit cards because Bidenomics is an abysmal failure.
Americans see what is happening.
This is a willful destruction of our traditional American way of life in order to radically change our country into something that our Founding Fathers never meant for it to be.
Just as when Vladimir Lenin and his Bolsheviks and Mensheviks came in and radically changed Russia into a Communist Nation, so are the Democrat Elite trying to radically change us from being a Constitutional Republic into being a totalitarian nightmare.
Think about it.
From the political programming and indoctrination in public schools of our children and grandchildren with beliefs and lifestyles that are the antithesis of the American way of life to the wide open Southern border, the Democrat Elite have been purposely attacking everything that Americans have held dear since our nation’s founding, including our individual freedom to worship as we please.
And now, since Joe Biden took office, they have thrown the doors wide open and invited everybody to come on in regardless of whether they are a political ideologue, a pedophile, a terrorist, or a psychopath.
Biden’s poor ratings on immigration is just the tip of the iceberg. The American people are fed up. That is why all of the Political Lawfare that the Democrats are hurling at President Trump is just making Americans support him more and more.
Every civilized nation in the history of the world, as shown by both scripture and recorded secular history, has eventually been destroyed by a combination of both internal and external factors.
With those in power in Washington DC turning on their own citizenry in order to purposely divide and conquer us, will America suffer the same fate as those before us?
I believe that if we vote for former President Trump this November that he will be able to fix a lot of things, but the final fate of this Sovereign Nation lies in the Hands of the One who gave it to us.
If there was ever a more clear example of the priorities of the Biden administration, this is it. The Biden Administration has gone to the Supreme Court to ask them to stop the state of Texas from blocking the Border Patrol and stopping unvetted illegal aliens from coming into our country at the hot spot known as Eagle Pass.
Per their usual SOP, the Biden Administration is not telling the entire story.
“Texas notified the Eagle Pass government on Wednesday that the Department of Public Safety would be closing public access to the park along the Rio Grande.
Concern grew when Border Patrol noted it, too, lost access to the park, which agents use to launch boats into the river. The area also served as a staging area where federal officers would take migrants into custody and process them. The Border Patrol’s access to the site for surveillance was similarly curtailed. In all, the lawsuit claimed agents did not have access to a 2.5-mile (4-kilometer) stretch of the border in the region.
The union for Border Patrol agents, the National Border Patrol Council, praised the move.
“By taking control of an area where so many illegal aliens are simply surrendering, he’s freeing up BP agents to patrol areas with high numbers of illegal aliens who attempt to escape arrest,” the union said in a message on X, formerly known as Twitter.” (Courtesy Newsmax.com)
So, while Americans are having trouble making ends meet, inflation is still running rampant, people have to decide between groceries and gas, at least those of us who actually work for a living do, and the supply chain is still broken, the Biden is trying to bring in millions of illegal aliens in order to make them future Democrat voters and “radically change” America.
The Far Left Democrats, at least the Facebook trolls, will say in defense that “no one is illegal”.
Well, by breaking our Sovereign Nation’s laws, they are committing an illegal act. And, the Biden administration is giving them money, free rooms, and free transportation to wherever they want to go.
Isn’t this aiding and abetting a criminal?
The Biden administration’s cockeyed values have never been more clearly on display than in this action.
A president is elected to be the leader of a nation and to protect its people. Joe Biden can’t even figure out how to get off of a stage.
Therefore, it’s not Biden who is filing this action with the Supreme Court. The culprits are his handlers, the Democrat Elite who have been controlling the Biden Administration from the get-go.
These unelected Democrat bureaucrats are running this nation into the ground trying to produce a doppelganger of the Socialist Nations whose people they have invited to enter this country illegally.
The democracy that they are champion is not a democracy of free speech and unalienable rights but rather a bob rule in which those who have the political power rule with impunity over the “proletariat.”
The state of Texas is tired of being overrun by illegal aliens who are taking away their resources and endangering their citizens.
Last Friday morning on Fox and Friends, they were showing the wave of illegal immigrants entering our Southern border at Arizona and talking about the fact that our own government is suing the state of Texas because Texas is trying to stop these lawbreakers from entering our country.
Can you can you imagine that?
The government of the United States of America suing one of our own states over trying to stop illegal activity.
Why?
Well, there are several reasons.
As I have said before, this all goes back to when Barack Hussein Obama said this country needs to be “radically changed”.
This is the Far Left Democrats’ way of achieving that radical change. They are allowing illegal immigrants from all over the world to come into this country in order to change it.
These people coming in illegally from various backgrounds have no skin in the game.
Yes, they have traveled a long way, but they are not entering legally, and they’re not swearing their loyalty to the United States of America.
They’re bringing their own flags, their own traditions, and their own concept of what government is.
And, in a lot of ways, their concept of government is a form of Marxism, whether it be socialism or outright communism.
And those who weren’t actually in a Marxist government were in a totalitarian dictatorship.
So, here you have all these people, with an inordinate amount of military-aged single men coming into our country illegally.
Why doesn’t the government stop this?
The sad fact is: They don’t want to.
They view the illegal immigrants coming in as future Democrat voters and vehicles of change.
They do not care about the American people and those of us who have worked so hard trying to achieve the American Dream.
They believe that by giving benefits and free money to these people breaking our laws that they will be loyal to the Democrats’ dream of America.
They are sadly mistaken.
A long time ago, President Ronald Reagan said,
“To sit back hoping that someday, someway, someone will make things right is to go on feeding the crocodile, hoping he will eat you last – but eat you he will.”
Eventually, the Democrats, with their purposeful destruction of our economy and the politically-driven influx of these illegal immigrants, are going to be eaten by the crocodile.
These people will turn on them and we will all have to pay the price.
That is why this upcoming presidential election in November is so important.
If we allow Biden to remain in office and those who are behind the scenes to remain in power, they will continue to allow this invasion of illegal immigrants to cross our Southern Border by the hundreds of thousands.
We are not just in a battle for our American way of life, we are in a battle for the future of our Constitutional Republic.
And, this is a battle that we must not lose for the sake of our children and grandchildren.
As we begin a New Year, we find our Sovereign Nation more divided than it has been in decades, almost as it was before the start of the Civil War.
In the past few years, Americans have had to endure a devastating coronavirus, released by Communist China, which took a horrible toll in terms of American lives, businesses, and jobs.
Then, just as Americans were starting to see a light at the end of the tunnel, it turned out to be an oncoming train in the form of Election Fraud, in which a demented old man, who could not even draw a campaign crowd of 200, supposedly inspired 80 million Americans to vote him in as President of the United States of America.
Now, in 2024, in the last (Thank God) year of the worst Presidency in American History, the Democratic Hierarchy and the Vichy Republicans have proven that they care more about keeping former President Donald J Trump out of the 2024 Presidential Election by using Political Lawfare against him or through appointed judges and politicians in Blue States attenpting to disqualify him through specious use of the 14th Amendment, laundering money by sending it to Ukraine, leaving our Southern Border wide open, and spending taxpayer dollars giving special interest groups “free” money than in making our Sovereign Nation stronger and making the lives of average Americans better.
Why are those who claim to be our “public servants” so adamant about going against the wishes of the American people?
According to a man who was an American Legend, it all has to do with the way Liberals look at things…
…I always thought I was a liberal but I came up terribly surprised when I found I was a right-wing conservative extremist…I have always listened to every human being I’ve ever met about how I should feel. But this so-called new liberal group… they never listen to your point of view and they make a decision as to what you think and they’re articulate enough and in control of enough of the press to force that image out for the average person. For some reason, maybe it’s these pictures, they have not been able to do that with me…it hasn’t affected my career in popularity in spite of the fact that they’ve tried to make them do it. There isn’t a hell of a lot we can do to change human behavior. We keep making laws to try to change human behavior but we can’t do it…You’re being conned into Keynesianism and socialism now but it isn’t going to stop the selfishness of human behavior. It isn’t going to stop the greed. If you take $20 and give a dollar to every son of a b!tch in the room, you come back a year later one of the b@st@rds will have most of the money. It’s just human nature. We’re never gonna whip it with a lot of laws.
As communication gets better and you make people conscious of somebody in trouble, starving or something like that, the average person will help…I think there are people who try to affect a thinking where they know more than some other son of a b!tch and try to pull a false impression on what human nature is. We’ve proven we go back to hope at the first opportunity…and bam they’re out there ready to grab it. So we are optimistic; we have to be optimistic. What else would we be if you lose optimism?” – John Wayne
The negativity and bitterness of the Modern American Liberals to whom the Duke was referring has been on display for the entire world to see, ever since the night of November 8, 2016, when reality threw a bucket of cold water in their faces, putting them on notice that average Americans were tired of their failed political philosophy and their perpetually morose opinion about the Greatest Country on the Face of the Earth.
For 8 long years under Barack Hussein Obamaand continuing with the election of Donald J Trump as the 45th President of the United States of America, there has been a constant chorus provided by the Nattering Nabobs of Negativism, now known as Modern American Liberals, concerning how uncaring, how bigoted, how xenophobic, how narrow-minded, and how just plain awful and stupid average Americans are to continue to love this country, to honor its flag, and to continue to hold dear the America Legacy of Traditional Faith and Values.
For proof of this, please check out the Kangaroo Court known as the J6 Committee Hearings and the ongoing protests supporting Radical Islamic Terrorists of Hamas.
Luckily, the overwhelming majority of those of us who live between the coasts do not live our lives like the mindless lemmings whom I have named the “New Bolsheviks” and the “New Politboro” in Washington DC.
The rugged individualism of previous generations of Americans flows through our veins. The American “Can-Do” Spirit has taken us from the bottom of the Ocean to the surface of the moon.
The overwhelming majority of Americans will stand by one another in times of crisis, as shown by the outpouring of support throughout natural disasters like tornadoes and hurricanes and horrible events such as wildfires.
The intestinal fortitude that is our heritage as Americans…along with that Still, Small Voice which still resides in each and every one of us, will continue, I pray, to guide our nation, and spur us on, to stay vigilant and protect our American Freedom, just as my Parents’ Generation did, against the Axis of Evil.
It is that same Divine Spark which leads our Best and Brightest as they protest and serve our nation’s interests in all corners of the globe. It is also found in our First Responders and the men and women of Law Enforcement who are willing to give their lives to protect our municipalities.
The Great Communicator, President Ronald Reagan, summarized what I have been trying to say better than I ever could.
In 1964, in his famous stump speech, “A Time for Choosing”, The Great Communicator said,
It’s time we asked ourselves if we still know the freedoms intended for us by the Founding Fathers. James Madison said, “We base all our experiments on the capacity of mankind for self government.”
This idea — that government was beholden to the people, that it had no other source of power — is still the newest, most unique idea in all the long history of man’s relation to man. This is the issue of this election: Whether we believe in our capacity for self-government or whether we abandon the American Revolution and confess that a little intellectual elite in a far-distant capital can plan our lives for us better than we can plan them ourselves.
You and I are told we must choose between a left or right, but I suggest there is no such thing as a left or right. There is only an up or down. Up to man’s age-old dream–the maximum of individual freedom consistent with order — or down to the ant heap of totalitarianism.
As we enter the New Year with an uncertain and frightening future facing our country, it will be up to us to continue what was begun on the night of November 8, 2016 and continue the fight to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, regardless of the words and actions of those who wish to change America into a totalitarian Marxist third-world barrio.
While I do not know what tomorrow holds, I know Who holds tomorrow…and me.
“And, life is worth the living, just because HE LIVES.”
A dear Facebook friend and brother-in-Christ and I discuss this all the time, both being Christian American conservatives.
We seem to have been having more discussions as things continue to swirl down the ol’ porcelain receptacle in regards to the once great country that we both love.
We both agree that we seem to be going through biblical times.
I have been writing since April of 2010 as a way to vent my frustrations and to try to awaken people as to what is going on in the world around them.
Even now, as President Joe Biden’s popularity is down to the lowest point of any American president in this point in their tenure, there are still signs that there are plenty of useful idiots in our country who are either purposefully obtuse or blissfully ignorant concerning the moral decay and fiscal destruction being caused by the Cultural Marxism spreading throughout our once Sovereign Nation.
It troubles me to no end that, even though I know, in my heart of hearts, that there are plenty of average Americans who are just as upset over the dilapidated moral and fiscal condition of “the shining city on a hill” as I am, there are times when I feel like the little Dutch boy, with his finger in the dike, desperately trying to hold back the flood waters, which are about to destroy everything in its path.
I know that civilizations come and go. I am a student of history, and I have read about the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire. Their incredibly advanced governmental, military, and architectural legacy was eclipsed by situational ethics, immorality. and governmental corruption, caused by enemies foreign and domestic.
Sound familiar?
While I believe that a man who brought America back from the brink once as President can be at least partially successful in doing that again, I tend to agree with my before-mentioned brother that it will take more than a politician to restore this nation.
The United States of America has been one of the most noble undertakings in the history of mankind.
Our Founding Fathers came here to escape religious persecution. Not to get away from religion, as both the Far Left Democrat Elite and their useful idiots attempt to claim as truth.
John Adams, a signer of the Declaration of Independence and Second President of the United States said..
It is religion and morality alone which can establish the principles upon which freedom can securely stand. The only foundation of a free constitution is pure virtue.
…We have no government armed with power 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.
Benjamin Franklin, signer of the Constitution and Declaration of Independence, said…
Only a virtuous people are capable of freedom. As nations become corrupt and vicious, they have more need of masters.
I have lived, Sir, a long time, and the longer I live, the more convincing proofs I see of this truth, that God governs in the affairs of men. And if a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without His notice, is it probable that an empire can rise without his aid? We have been assured, Sir, in the Sacred Writings, that “except the Lord build the House, they labor in vain that build it.” I firmly believe this; and I also believe that without His concurring aid we shall succeed in this political building no better, than the Builders of Babel: We shall be divided by our partial local interests; our projects will be confounded, and we ourselves shall become a reproach and bye word down to future ages. And what is worse, mankind may hereafter from this unfortunate instance, despair of establishing governments by human wisdom and leave it to chance, war and conquest.
I therefore beg leave to move that henceforth prayers imploring the assistance of Heaven, and its blessings on our deliberations be held in this Assembly every morning before we proceed to business, and that one or more of the clergy of this city be requested to officiate in that service.
Thomas Jefferson, signer of the Declaration of Independence and Third President of the United States, said…
Give up money, give up fame, give up science, give the earth itself and all it contains rather than do an immoral act. And never suppose that in any possible situation, or under any circumstances, it is best for you to do a dishonorable thing, however slightly so it may appear to you. Whenever you are to do a thing, though it can never be known but to yourself, ask yourself how you would act were all the world looking at you, and act accordingly. Encourage all your virtuous dispositions, and exercise them whenever an opportunity arises, being assured that they will gain strength by exercise, as a limb of the body does, and that exercise will make them habitual. From the practice of the purest virtue, you may be assured you will derive the most sublime comforts in every moment of life, and in the moment of death.
So, how did we get to where we are?
Today, the majority of Americans still believe that Jesus Christ is their personal Savior. You wouldn’t know that fact from exposure to our American Media, nor from following the anti-Christian actions of our present Administration.
The problem, though, is the fact that man is a fallen creature. There was only one Perfect Man. We all fall short of the Glory of God.
The other problem is the fact that we seem to be experiencing the great Falling Away as was foretold in scripture in which man and woman come to churches have “their ears tickled” while being reinforced in their belief in their own righteousness based on the accepted mores of popular culture instead of growing as a Christian through exposure to the Word of God.
There will be no escape for America from this downward spiral we find ourselves in, without Revival in the Land.
Just as addicts, going through the 12-step program, are told to reach out for spiritual help, so should we, as a sovereign nation, bought with the sweat and blood of our fallen, who fought for an ideal much greater than themselves, so that this Blessed Land, UNDER GOD, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all, should not perish from the face of God’s green Earth, seek the help of the God of our Fathers, to reclaim The Promise that is America.
Freedom prospers when religion is vibrant and the rule of law under God is acknowledged.- Ronald Reagan
Simply saying the words to myself brings back a flood of precious memories…memories of Thanksgivings past, as a child, surrounded by aunts, uncles, cousins, my sisters, and my Mother and Daddy…smells of sage dressing and oven-roasted turkey…followed by the feeling of having an over-stuffed stomach…all topped by the sounds of laughter and the sight of my aunts and uncles, all members of America’s Greatest Generation, being led in a penny-ante poker game after the Thanksgiving meal by my Daddy, the finest man I have ever known…all of them enjoying each other’s company as they reveled in the wonderful completeness of being a family.
Regardless of what the White House Staff posted yesterday, it is not about sharing a bunch of Talking Points about what a “great” job Dementia-riddled octogenarian Joe Biden is doing as President.
Thanksgiving is a uniquely American Holiday…as unique as the nation which celebrates it.
In 1621, a small group of Plymouth colonists and Wampanoag Indians shared a feast celebrating the autumn harvest. This is acknowledged today as one of the first Thanksgiving celebrations in the colonies.
However, Thanksgiving is much more than this.
Thanksgiving is a day when Americans thank their Creator for the blessings they have received during the year, while holding hope and expectation in their hearts for the blessings yet to come.
The Father of Our Country expressed his thankfulness concerning God and America, when he announced this holiday in 1789:
Whereas it is the duty of all Nations to acknowledge the providence of almighty God, to obey his will, to be grateful for his benefits, and humbly to implore his protection and favor – and Whereas both Houses of Congress have by their joint Committee requested me “to recommend to the People of the United States a day of public thanksgiving and prayer to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many signal favors of Almighty God, especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness.”
Now therefore I do recommend and assign Thursday the 26th day of November next to be devoted by the People of these States to the service of that great and glorious Being, who is the beneficent Author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be – That we may then all unite in rendering unto him our sincere and humble thanks – for his kind care and protection of the People of this country previous to their becoming a Nation – for the signal and manifold mercies, and the favorable interpositions of his providence, which we experienced in the course and conclusion of the late war –for the great degree of tranquillity, union, and plenty, which we have since enjoyed – for the peaceable and rational manner in which we have been enabled to establish constitutions of government for our safety and happiness, and particularly the national One now lately instituted, for the civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed, and the means we have of acquiring and diffusing useful knowledge; and in general for all the great and various favors which he hath been pleased to confer upon us.
And also that we may then unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations and beseech him to pardon our national and other transgressions – to enable us all, whether in public or private stations, to perform our several and relative duties properly and punctually – to render our national government a blessing to all the People, by constantly being a government of wise, just, and constitutional laws, discreetly and faithfully executed and obeyed – to protect and guide all Sovereigns and Nations (especially such as have shewn kindness unto us) and to bless them with good government, peace, and concord – To promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the increase of science among them and Us – and generally to grant unto all mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity as he alone knows to be best.
Given under my hand at the City of New York the third day of October in the year of our Lord 1789. – United States President George Washington.
On November 15, 1985, in the first year of his second term, President Ronald Reagan issued the following proclamation…
Although the time and date of the first American thanksgiving observance may be uncertain, there is no question but that this treasured custom derives from our Judeo-Christian heritage. “Unto Three, O God, do we give thanks,” the Psalmist sang, praising God not only for the “wondrous works” of His creation, but for loving guidance and deliverance from dangers.
A band of settlers arriving in Maine in 1607 held a service of thanks for their safe journey, and twelve years later settlers in Virginia set aside a day of thanksgiving for their survival. In 1621 Governor William Bradford created the most famous of all such observances at Plymouth Colony when a bounteous harvest prompted him to proclaim a special day “to render thanksgiving to the Almighty God for all His blessings.” The Spaniards in California and the Dutch in New Amsterdam also held services to give public thanks to God.
In 1777, during our War of Independence, the Continental Congress set aside a day for thanksgiving and praise for our victory at the battle of Saratoga. It was the first time all the colonies took part in such an event on the same day. The following year, upon news that France was coming to our aid, George Washington at Valley Forge prescribed a special day of thanksgiving. Later, as our first President, he responded to a Congressional petition by declaring Thursday, November 26, 1789, the first Thanksgiving Day of the United States of America.
Although there were many state and national thanksgiving days proclaimed in the ensuing years, it was the tireless crusade of one woman, Sarah Josepha Hale, that finally led to the establishment of this beautiful feast as an annual nationwide observance. Her editorials so touched the heart of Abraham Lincoln that in 1863 – even in the midst of the civil War – he enjoined his countrymen to be mindful of their many blessings, cautioning them not to forget “the source from which they come,” that they are “the gracious gifts of the Most High God…” Who ought to be thanked “with one heart and one voice by the whole American People.”
It is in that spirit that I now invite all Americans to take part again in this beautiful tradition with its roots deep in our history and deeper still in our hearts. We manifest our gratitude to God for the many blessings he has showered upon our land and upon its people.
In this season of Thanksgiving we are grateful for our abundant harvests and the productivity of our industries; for the discoveries of our laboratories; for the researches of our scientists and scholars; for the achievements of our artists, musicians, writers, clergy, teachers, physicians, businessmen, engineers, public servants, farmers, mechanics, artisans, and workers of every sort whose honest toil of mind and body in a free land rewards them and their families and enriches our entire Nation.
Let us thank God for our families, friends, and neighbors, and for the joy of this very festival we celebrate in His name. Let every house of worship in the land and every home and every heart be filled with the spirit of gratitude and praise and love on this Thanksgiving Day.
On this Thanksgiving Day 2023, I’m thankful for Americans who are still making a difference: “Average Americans” who still love God and country and stand on principle with their feet planted on a Solid Rock, and not on shifting sands.
The “Average American”, the 9 to 5′er, working himself into the grave to try to provide for his family.
It was this same “Average American”, who fired the shot heard around the world and began the War for American Independence, who stormed the beaches of Normandy on D-Day in World War II, who waded through rice paddies in Vietnam, and who swallowed sand in Desert Storm and Desert Shield.
The same “Average American” who, as a New York City Policeman or Fireman, ran up the stairs of the World Trade Center on 9/11/01, instead of running down them.
The same “Average American”, who simply wants things to be easier in this life for his children and grandchildren, than he had it.
It is this same “Average American”, who takes family and friends in, when they are in the midst of a life-altering tragedy.
The same “Average American”, who volunteers on a soup line or at a Senior Citizens Home, or, who begins a successful business in his basement.
They are the reason we remain, in spite of all that has befallen us as a nation, the Greatest Country on the Face of the Earth, despite those who are presently trying to to “radically change” our Constitutional Republic” and take away our right as Americans to live and raise our children and grandchildren as we see fit.
And, the One who gave us this country and endowed us with certain “inalienable rights” is the Rock upon which America was built.
Yesterday, I posted about our brave Americans who have fought for our country in wars and have served in peacetime.
It got me thinking about the state of America in 2023.
The politicians who are running this country are installing the same political ideologies and punitive fascism that America’s veterans fought against.
The “Wokeness” which they have been pushing for the last few years is censorship of thought. If you don’t think the way that they want you to, you are ignorant and a “Nationalist”.
Which is funny because that is what we used to call Patriotism.
Our veterans are Patriots.
Professional politicians, living in their bubble in Washington, DC, have installed a hierarchy which our Founding Fathers never meant to exist in our Constitutional Republic.
George Orwell, in his book “Animal Farm,” put it in a way in which he expressed that “some animals are more equal than others.”
Our Founders believed that we were all the same with Inalienable Rights, which included “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.”
Now, in “Woke” America, those who want to remain in power by any means necessary believe in “abortion, Political Lawfare, and anti-Semitism.”
It took the past few decades of indoctrination and programming in our Public School Systems to get here. Just like it took fascist totalitarian Marxists years to convince useful idiots in counties in Eastern Europe and South America that “The State” would provide for them “from cradle-to-grave.”
We all know how that turned out, don’t we?
Marxism has failed in every single country it was installed in. That is why we’ve got people fleeing those Hellholes trying to break into our country across our Southern Border.
As far as abortion is concerned, as a Christian, I believe that life begins a conception.
Fetus is Latin for BABY.
The Political Lawfare, which is being waged against the leading candidate in the 2024 Presidential Election, by the ruling political party, is unconstitutional and a strategy used by Marxist governments to maintain their power over the Proletariat.
So, why is all this violent anti-semitism being allowed?
For a totalitarian government to exist, average citizens must be made to not trust one another and must be in conflict with each other.
If Americans were united, like we were in the past, with a love of country and a shared spirit of patriotism and love for our fellow Americans, like that which caused our veterans to give their all to protect this Sovereign Nation, all these evil and immoral politicians and “political activists” would not have a chance to do the damage that they have done to our country.
Is it too late for america?
Well, all I know is that nothing is impossible with God and for God, but there will have to be a massive return to traditional American faith and values for this country to thrive again.
And, right now, America’s useful idiots are embracing everything that our veterans fought against.
