The Wee Folk Of The USA!

IN CONGRESS, JULY 4, 1776 The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America

I have nothing but respect for how she held up and stood strong during WWII. And I have no doubt it was God that empowered her to hold up so. Which makes it all the more sad how she has just led people astray with her power to do good, or nothing, in the area of being an example for Christ. I hold her Knighting gays just because it was economically prudent for England to have been nothing less than a shameful sellout. Profitability is not everything. She did not have to discriminate against them to keep from outright blessing them. And it shows too. One wonders just whom she thinks saved Great Britian, the English, or the English (and their Allies) who trusted in Christ?

The Bible was the foundation of its Government. Children were taught to read in order to be able to read the Bible. This expression "separation of church and state" has been thoroughly misrepresented on purpose. Its original intent was that the state or government could not interfere with the faith or religion of the people, which at that time was Christianity (who knows what it is now). Government and schools were built on the foundation of Christianity and God was acknowledged in this country as a real and living Creator. That is the sole reason why American has been blessed, not unlike the Jews who were blessed when they obeyed God and judged with punishments when they disobeyed. God is the same yesterday, today and forever and what is going on in America now is the same as what was going on with the Jews throughout history. We must never forget that without the Jews, we Christians do not exist. We come forth from them spiritually. We have lost our way, that is our foundation, due to the many cracks of apathy and idolatry that have crept in during the past decades and now we are reaping what we have been sowing. I guess God has about had enough of it and He has now begun the harvesting. His harvesting isn't going to look very acceptable to most, since separating the tares and the wheat will be a painful process but it has truly begun. May we draw strength from those who have had to suffer much more that we in other countries and may we always glorify His Holy name in all we do and say.

It is hard to imagine a more direct involvement of government in private religion then to have the leader of the government call for a national day or prayer....isn't this mixing of the two exactly what we try to avoid in this country? I can't tell which side of that particular coin this community falls on. So which is it....church and state SHOULD mix or SHOULD NOT?

Three cheers to the Obama administration for speaking up for the goodness and heritage of our nation. We should be aware of the executive branch's influence on judicial matters. There are so very few people who actually "hate" God and anything that denotes His existence. When these few surface to wipe out His footprints, we can't be idle. Atheism is a religion in itself and these folks are always trying to move the line between what is true and what is error.

We had the odd Day in the past, but such Days are never called by our monarch now. We don't have separation of church and state, so there is no reason why not to call for Days of Prayer. Our nation needs divine intervention. A formal arrangement would help to focus all our people on the LORD and also give believers a legitimate opportunity to refer to Him. Give thanks, US, for whatever you get in this area of national life! We in Britain envy you in the US having a National Day of Prayer.
