You adulterous people! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God” ~~ James 4:4.

Excerpt from “WHoly Christian”

It was intended from the very foundation that the US of A would be a Christian nation.  Our laws, from the outset, were based on the Holy Bible and perusals of the founders’ writings prove that to be a fact, much to the ACLU’s dismay, not to mention Freedom From Religion and other antichristian organizations.  Furthermore, it is only persons of high moral fiber who are supposed ot be permitted to be in positions of “public service” according to the founders.  It is not the (Anthony) Wieners and (Barney) Franks and the citizens are supposed to be watching and dictating to the government what its limits are while holding the politicians accountable for their actions.  Unfortunately, too many citizens have abdicated their watchdog responsibility and allowed amoral, even immoral, hotdogs to sneak in to those positions of power.  It is time to get busy and clean out all the slime from Washington, D.C.  We have the internet, for now, where we can bypass the biased media to get the word out and mobilizing.

“There has been a systematic attempt to mislead Christians by disinformation generated by anti-Christian writers who have obscured or denied the Christian nature of our heritage and civil government and law.” (Archie P. Jones, Ph.D., Foreword to Benjamin F. Morris’ The Christian Life and Character of the Civil Institutions of the United States, 1864, reprint 2007 by American Vision, Inc)  Back at the foundation of this nation, America, the people understood the lessons from the Holy Bible that civil government is used by God to work out His holy will in the lives of men and nations.

“Our forefathers in the faith did not retreat from involvement in society and politics.  They did not turn civil government, the making and enforcement, and adjudication of laws, over to Satan and those who serve him.” (Jones)  It was Christianity, not paganism or secularism which produced freedom and justice in the west and in America, it certainly wasn’t Islam.  “’There is nothing,’ says Webster, ‘we look for with more certainty than this principle, that Christianity is a part of the law of the land.  Everything declares this.  The generations which have gone before speak to it, and pronounce it from the tomb.’” (Morris, p 245)  “The statesmen of the Continental Congress, in their deliberations, officially recognized the Christian religion, and incorporated its principles into their legislative acts.” (Morris, p 245)

John Adams, in a letter to his wife describes the scene of the 1st Continental Congress “When the Congress first met, Mr. Cushing first made a motion that it should be opened with prayer.” (Morris, p246)  It was a non-sectarian, yet decidedly Christian, prayer which ended with “we ask in the name and through the merits of Jesus Christ, thy Son, our Savior. Amen!” (Morris, pp 249-250)  “The state papers of the Continental Congress were also full of the spirit and sentiments of the Christian system,” (Morris, p 46).  We have a great and Godly heritage in spite of what the ACLU and others of an anti-Christian mindset wish to profess and the documents are once again being brought out to the light of day for our studious perusal at this crucial point in time.  Crucial, because we most definitely need a new awakening similar to that which brought the United States into existence.

We desperately need a Great Awakening in this country and 2nd Chronicles 7:14 provides the recipe for it.

WHoly Christian, Wake up Call

From my book “WHoly Christian”:

Man is but a reed, the weakest thing in nature, but he is a thinking reed.  It is not necessary that the entire universe arm itself to crush him.  A breath of air, a drop of water, suffices to kill him.  But were the universe to crush him, man would still be more noble than that which kills him; because he knows that he dies, and the universe knows nothing of the advantage it has over him.  — Pascal, Thoughts, xviii, xi

Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country.  Ladies and gentlemen that is not just an archaic typing exercise; it really is a call to action of the sort which is so desperately needed at this point in time.  For the last few decades in America there have been a few voices, although we need more, attempting to sound the alarm that we are headed for serious trouble if we do not return wholeheartedly to God in accordance with 2nd Chronicles 7:14.

There is another phrase which is, unfortunately, not yet archaic but it really needs to be made so due to the fact that, at best, it has its roots in the “PC” crowd and its primary purpose is to censor certain type of thought; while hopefully avoiding creeping into the arena of conspiracy theories, that phrase actually may have a far more nefarious purpose.  Regardless of the phrase, there are two things that all Americans absolutely should be talking about, especially conservative Americans:  Politics and religion; one may only affect your life here while the other will affect your life in the here and the hereafter.

Old historic documents, also known as genuine American history, as opposed to the progressive propaganda presently permeating our public “educational” system, actually reveal that, in the years following the founding of the USA as a representative republic, nearly everyone routinely discussed both because they believed the then common adage that the way to maintain freedom was for everyone to be fully informed regarding politics and religion.

Therefore I contend the concept of silencing public discourse regarding politics and religion is rooted in a liberal-progressive idea which has as its goal the dumbing down of the populace in order to gain control and firmly establish an elitist ruling class, and for that reason, today’s Christian cannot afford the luxury of loafing.
