One Nation Under God....Still

I hope that you’ll watch this wonderful, short history lesson given in congress by Congressman Randy Forbes in May of 2009. Our current president, Barack Hussein Obama, has stated publicly that the Unites States is not a Christian nation but a nation of many religions, making it even more obvious that his education of his country’s history is sorely lacking. (Or perhaps making it obvious that he has a distaste for it and that there may be even an underlying desire to eradicate that history and that faith in favor of a more ‘world view’ approach in changing our country to meet his socialist and apologetic standards.)
There is not one state constitution in this nation that does not thank God, honor God, or give credit to God for its freedoms, independence, statehood, and status. From the first foot set on a ship to head to the Americas, there was a desire to worship the one true God, and from the very inception of what we now know as the United States of America, our God was the cornerstone of every document, law, and process enacted. It was normal and common for sessions concerning our governance to be opened, guided, and closed with prayer. Our armed forces, our judicial branch, our national buildings, monuments, architecture, protocol, and everything this nation was built with, upon, and around, sought the guidance of, protection of, and acknowledged the sovereignty of our one true God; The God of the whole counsel of the Bible.
Christians coming here to worship freely never intended to force that faith, but to practice it in freedom from persecution. All citizens are given equal rights to worship freely. Unfortunately, as the world calendar is speeding toward the day of Christ’s return, we are seeing biblical predictions coming true, and in America, this last bastion of God’s light, Satan is fighting desperately and fiercely. Horrible perversions and evil “religions” are given free rein to vulnerable people and young minds, and Christians are becoming more and more persecuted and unpopular. Tolerance is no longer a two way street and is now used to describe allowing everything BUT the goodness and freedom in Christ to be shared.
In Timothy, chapter 3, Paul warns that the ‘last days’ will begin to be characterized by people “being lovers of themselves, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God—having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with them.”………..Sound familiar?! Certainly nobody but our God knows the time of his return, but He has given us the undeniable means to diagnose that we don’t have long. He has been patient, not wanting any to perish, but the clock is ticking.
God’s people in God’s blessed nation must put on His armor and fight! Get up and fight…….we are battling unseen forces and we must prove to the kingdom of hell that we will get up and prove faithful to our God! We must call upon the power of God and GET UP! This IS one nation under God that was and still is a beacon of freedom to the world and a testimony of His blessings for His people.
