IN GOD WE STILL TRUST

Many say we are NOT a Christian nation. It can be argued I suppose that we are not one today,…but a reasonable, rational person can not really argue that we WERE founded as one…..

Alexander Hamilton:

Let an association be formed to be denominated “The Christian Constitutional Society,” its object to be first: The support of the Christian religion. second: The support of the United States.”

John Adams:

“I will avow that I then believed, and now believe, that those general principles of Christianity are as eternal and immutable as the existence and attributes of God; and that those principles of liberty are as unalterable as human nature.”

Samuel Adams:

“he right to freedom being the gift of the Almighty…The rights of the colonists as Christians…may be best understood by reading and carefully studying the institutions of The Great Law Giver and Head of the Christian Church, which are to be found clearly written and promulgated in the New Testament.”

John Jay:

“I have long been of opinion that the evidence of the truth of Christianity requires only to be carefully examined to produce conviction in candid minds. . . .”

Thomas Jefferson:

“I, too, have made a wee-little book from the same materials, which I call the Philosophy of Jesus; it is a paradigma of his doctrines, made by cutting the texts out of the book, and arranging them on the pages of a blank book, in a certain order of time or subject. A more beautiful or precious morsel of ethics I have never seen; it is a document in proof that I am a real Christian, that is to say, a disciple of the doctrines of Jesus.”

George Washington to the Delaware Indian Chiefs in 1779:

“You do well to wish to learn our arts and our ways of life and above all, the religion of Jesus Christ. These will make you a greater and happier people than you are. Congress will do everything they can to assist you in this wise intention.”

Patrick Henry:

“This is all the inheritance I give to my dear family. The religion of Christ will give them one which will make them rich indeed.”

Samuel Adams:

Religion and good morals are the only solid foundation of public liberty and happiness.” –Samuel Adams

The Third Jihad–911 remembered

YouTube Preview Image

Eight years later and for me at least the wound is still fresh, still raw. I’m still angry, scared, baffled how anyone could hate so much. Thanks to the lefts relentless efforts to minimize what happened, even excuse it, is despicable. To apologize for CAUSING that level of hate is not even something I can fully comprehend.

  I live near Detroit metro and when I see a plane landing or taking off, when it is huge in the sky, I still think of 9-11 every time. If you would have told me that day that eight years later we would have a President that would make a world apology tour, I wouldn’t have believed you, would not have thought it possible. If you would have told me that a sitting United States President would BOW to a Saudi, I would have laughed in your face and probably wondered silently if there would be a Saudi left alive in eight years. Yet here we are, still with our collective heads in the sand, denying that there is an ideology out there that demands our subjugation or death. Still not fully supporting, even undermining in some cases our soldiers, our most precious soldiers.

I watched a video yesterday, “The third Jihad”.   http://www.thethirdjihad.com/911stream/911stream.php   Our enemy is still very active, still determined, and our resolve as a nation is all but non-existent. Instead, our President makes apologies..who could have imagined eight short years ago. If you read Carpe Diem, you know I’m not optimistic that we will win this war with Islam, this third jihad. The west has been at war with Islam almost since Mohammad got up one morning and invented a religion. We won the other two, its starting to look like the third time is a charm. Who could have imagined eight years ago that we would be where we are now? I know I couldn’t have.

I’m going to say something I have never said before, and never thought I would. Bring our guys home. If you’re just going to send our guys in to a meat grinder, with no real resolve to win it, bring them home. We could win this thing if we truly were united, but we are not and it doesn’t seem like we ever will be again. I can’t imagine what those in power think will happen to them when the Muslims make their final push. When Islam is in charge, you convert, become a slave or die, you don’t rule.

Oh well, I didn’t mean to make this a political piece. I’m just so frustrated with this whole mess. May God be with the 9-11 families today, I’m sure THEY haven’t forgotten.-JMO

Carpe Diem

I write this blog with tears in my eye’s. I have watched my county being destroyed both from enemies from outside her borders, and the enemies within and in some instances, even inside of our own government. I wish I could be more optimistic about the future of America but as I survey all of the forces that oppose what used to be considered the “American” way of life, I am more certain than ever that my country is soon going to spiral in to madness, and utter destruction.

I have tried my best to warn people. I’m not a great speaker or writer, but I’ve tried. I so admire others that ARE great speakers and writers. Some bloggers, TV and radio personalities, even some preachers though far too few. D. James Kennedy was a man I admired greatly. He passed away not so long ago. He preached Jesus, but he also tried to open the eye’s of not only his congregation but all those that watched him on TV and heard him on the radio. He warned of encroaching Global government. He warned about radical Islam. He spoke of the indoctrination of our children in school and the vanishing America I love. He is gone now, and I am wholly inadequate to take his place. I miss him. America needs more men like D. James Kennedy. I offered myself before God to be one of them, and God seems to say, “no”.

Perhaps I am just discouraged, many people that God has used in the past have been discouraged, depressed, ignored, despised etc. I’ve just spent the morning thinking about 9-11 and where we have come and what/who we are in America today. Perhaps I’m just a pessimist, but I see a very dark future for America. I’m not talking about decades or centuries either. America’s demise is eminent I believe. I know things that the average American doesn’t know. You don’t have to be a soothsayer or prophet to see what is coming our way but because our main stream media is shirking their responsibility to us you DO have to look for it and for whatever reason I have been obsessed with doing so for many years now. If you ONLY watch the alphabet media or listen to MPR and Keith Oberman, or you get you’re news from MTV, you don’t know and you don’t know that you don’t know and in most cases YOU DON’T WANT to know the truth.

Frankly, knowing what is headed our way is no fun at all. Being powerless to stop it is maddening. Digging and hours and hours spent researching things has paid precious few dividends, and taken time away from my family.

Now it is getting scary. For the first time in my life I now have to worry, am I on a list? Will I soon be on one? People are already being maligned and even beaten for their views in once free America. No, it isn’t official government agencies doing it…at least not yet. I have to tell my kid to be guarded about her fathers political views and careful with about what she says and to whom she says it in her 8th grade class room. In America. I can’t have a bumper sticker on my car expressing MY views lest it be destroyed and threatening my safety and/or my family’s. In America!

I have been railing against Communism at least since November because that IS who our current President is, yet even he is not the enemy I am most concerned with. This communist takeover of America will so weaken us that trained, disciplined, committed, Muslim Jihadist will have relatively little resistance when they attack. While we fight each other on a daily basis, while we strip ourselves of our defenses, while we weaken the resolve and determination of the American people, Radical Islam continues to move chess pieces in to place, Apparently it is God’s will to let Islam rule, at least very short term, but what an awful future that paints, at least for those that will never submit to Islamic rule.

God is God and his will prevails…always. America has shown God the door in years past, even protesting “in God we trust” on our money and “under God” in the pledge of allegiance. So, in my opinion, God is giving America the chance to find out what she is without Him. Just another Godless nation awaiting His divine judgement.

I will continue to pray for America and hope for the best. In my heart though, I believe there is only a remnant of true believers in America today despite the numbers that play church. I know that my own life could use some cleaning up and cleaning out, I’ll begin there. I hope the Lord will grant me the grace to get my house in order before He comes or I die.

Hard times, unimaginable just a few short years ago are coming on America with devastating swiftness. America was a great country once, perhaps we can turn it around and she can be again, but in all honesty, I’m beginning to doubt it. The ship of state is headed for an iceberg and its a very large ship that takes time to turn around, frankly I don’t believe we have that much time left, too few see the iceberg and nobody, not the Captain or his crew believe there even is an iceberg.

My extended family thinks I’m nuts, my congregation at church for the most part is un-supportive of my efforts, my closest friends often disagree with what I’ve been trying to do. I have no one I can sit down with and de-compress for a lack of a better term. I think I am going to concentrate on readying MY wife and MY child for the coming catastrophe, I won’t be so much involved in trying to convince people who are able to deny reality so well. May God watch over the reader and protect your families in the all to near future. Thank you for allowing me to vent here on occasion and work out my own acceptance of the things to come. It is difficult to realize you will probably not have the option of dying an old man in your own bed. Good luck to you all-JMO

Just so ya know, I’m not Barbara Streisand and this isn’t my 153rd “farewell tour.” I am not quitting. I’ll try to attend a local teaparty probably this weekend and most likely will write again. I’ll continue to speak out when the opportunity arises. At least here I get SOME feedback and assurance I’m not crazy, at least from some of you. I am however sticking to the assertion that stopping what is coming is highly unlikely and preparing for it is what must be done now. (see “ship of state” reference above)
