When in the course of human event

When in the course of human event…

“By Divine instinct men’s minds mistrust ensuing danger.” ~ Richard III, Shakespeare

More and more over the decades, this nation has allowed itself to become Biblically ignorant. Most people under 40 don’t even “get” the language and references Lincoln used, though ALL Americans at the time would have done so immediately. Think the effort to tear down Lincoln’s statue at U of Wisconsin was a mistake? No, not at all. Lincoln was not a Christian, but he knew his Bible and he believed in God as a saving and liberating power active in this nation.

In some ways, we’ve been foolish and somewhat naive over too many years, having allowed evil to thrive in our government and in our world. Now, it has enveloped us. Our justice system is a farce. Our freedoms have been stolen from us. Our children taken out of school even. The question is clear: Will we allow evil into our hearts? Once we accept that manifestation is when we own it.

Woe to us the moment we make a conscious choice to embrace evil, for that’s when we choose to become the children of the dark. We’ve now finally arrived at decision time.

Thomas Lifson, American Thinker: “Remember when a “Trump” sign, stylistically resembling the famous hillside “Hollywood” sign, suddenly appeared one morning along a busy Los Angeles freeway? Caltrans quickly forced its removal from the private land on which it sat, as a purported “distraction,” but the mere fact of its mysterious materialization was so remarkable and iconic that it immediately joined the pantheon of the greatest campaign stunts in American history.  It has also inspired  at least one imitator.”

“Now, Kira Davis, one of the rare put and proud Hollywood conservatives, has tweeted a stunning two minute Trump commercial featuring the inside story of operation that erected the sign and making the point that President Trump inspires us to never accept “impossible” as a limit on what we attempt. Even winning  California back.” [end]

Should God grant us a second chance with this election, we need to heal that wound on our nation’s soul. The prohibition on establishment of religion, which is a profound good, does not bar us from instructing our youth in basic cultural literacy. Including the Bible.

When POTUS says Republicans are the party of Lincoln, he fully intends that Lincoln’s views on God and what God demands of a nation also be restored to our national soul. POTUS is reshaping the Republican Party to its true purpose. From both Bush Republican presidencies full of endless wars, misuse of American power, and being rag-balled all around the globe, We the (63 million) People now have a Republican president embracing African Americans in the mold of the party of Lincoln with liberation from those who have oppressed us.

The loss of our Judeo-Christian spiritual center, the loss of God as central to our culture, hollowed out our nation’s core before all the rest of the rot set in. It grew and spread so fast (70 years or less) precisely because the biblical Power that would have opposed it was no longer present and shared in common.

The land to which Lincoln addressed both of his Inaugural Addresses is not the land in which we are living. But We the (63 million) People are sure getting close.

Take for instance this clip from Sundance, Conservative Treehouse:

“It is easy to rally and cheer when adversity is low. However, it is only in the face of tyranny when the heart of true patriots shines through. Yesterday the people of Minnesota won the hearts of many; no doubt President Trump will not forget.”

“The corrupt governor and attorney general of Minnesota blocked the rally for President Trump by hiding behind their arbitrary COVID mandates and limiting crowd gatherings. But the patriots showed up anyway and surrounded the venue.”

“Despite knowing they would be turned away from the rally, they showed up anyway; stood resolute and represented the very best within our nation.” [end]

As many wise people have long since pointed out, the top three roots of Western Civilization are Jerusalem, Athens, and Rome. Whether you are a believer or not, when the taproot is destroyed, the plant soon shrivels and dies.

We almost lost Jerusalem but for the fact that GOD placed it upon the shoulders of President Trump. God’s man in the breach indeed!

Then Paul stood in the midst of Mars’ hill, and said, Ye men of Athens, I perceive that in all things ye are too superstitious. For as I passed by, and beheld your devotions, I found an altar with this inscription, To The Unknown God. Whom therefore ye ignorantly worship, him declare I unto you. ~ Acts 17: 22-23
