God is
great, kind, loving. He is the ultimate of
everything we love about Fatherhood. He never falsely accuses us, ever.
He knows what is best for us, what brings us the most happiness and peace. Yet
He never forces us to make the right decision. It has been said that our
government was miraculously woven together by several highly enlightened men.
While the miracle of America is absolutely true, the persuasion of these men
was undoubtedly this notion of a kind and benevolent Heavenly Father who
blesses those who obey His commandments. Also, they ardently held to the belief
of a just God whose 'judgments will not sleep forever.' as Abe Lincoln believed
was our Civil war... God's punishment on this country for the sin of slavery.
When our country started to veer off the course laid out by these Godly
founders, we lost our way. In the confusion and chaos of the women's movement
and civil rights movement, Christians panicked and did not want to appear
backward or bigoted, so, we caved.
---We caved when Creation was replaced by a set
of theories still yet unproven and
changing every minute. ----We caved when a woman's body was inseparable from her
baby and thus abortion became the name for legalized infanticide. No different
than Pharaoh killing off all of the new born babes.
---We caved, and this one is
the most laughable, when prayer was taken out of schools and not just prayer
but every form or mention of God. What is incredibly ludicrous about this one
is that the very book the founders quoted most- the Bible- is now not quoted in
schools.
1.Congress has always opened with prayer but schools cannot? 2.Jefferson
had Bibles printed and given to Native Americans and even had the government
pay for a minister to preach the Gospel to them.
3.Congress printed Bibles as
their strained relationship with English printing presses led to fewer books in
the US, and they did not want the American people without the #1.book that led
them.
4.Several presidents and governors issued serious declarations for unified
prayer and fasting to the God of the Bible and Jesus Christ our Lord.
Try
issuing one today as student council president. :) Should schools be held to a
different standard then Congress, the Supreme Court or the president?
Absolutely not. Yet they are.
Why? Christians bought into the lie that it was
mean to tell the truth about God's Word, his form of rewards and punishments.
But it is not , it is a kindness. Let the righteous strike me, it shall be a
reward, David says. What he means is, we need to be good children in order to receive
good things from our Father and if we do wrong, we will be punished. A country
with God as their Lord will flourish and prosper. A country who ignores His
Word, will suffer avid wrath. Our founding fathers desperately wanted the
following generations to stay the Christ centered course for they knew our
republic would be overrun with dictators and bullies like king George if they
strayed. You see, while imperfect as they were, they knew the rights given to
them to overthrow England were from God and only age could see them through to
a brighter day. They fasted and prayed like the Israelites before them, for God’s
Divine protection and aid. And when it seemed that the Constitution was at an
impasse, it was Ben Franklin who said, men we have got to pray! We prayed when
lives were on the line, when the fight was most intense, now, at this great
moment in history we need to pray to the God of the Bible once more. Men were
crying, George Washington was humbly on his knees. This is the scene that
should be played out in every classroom in America, this is the scene that
should go before every piece of governmental debate.
It doesn't matter that a
Humanist religion has taken over the lawmakers in this country. Do not be
surprised, but go to the only who moves on the hearts of men and women and
children and He will again revive this nation, punish the wicked, and restore
the righteous to power so the people can rejoice!.
