The founders of this nation gave us a system of government whose principles and precepts are based on God in whom they believed. The men and women had an unfailing belief in God and an abiding loyalty to the nation they created with God’s help. It is obvious from a careful reading of their writings and their speeches that they saw no conflict in professing loyalty to the nation and God at the same time.  Those who will honestly explore the truth will find that there isn’t anything in the Declaration of Independence or the Constitution that in any way conflicts with belief in God. Even those who don’t believe in God can express loyalty to the nation without bothering their consciences. When they do, they are tacitly agreeing that a higher force than man guided the setting up of the government of the nation. No other nation on earth has ever been formed on the principles of God.

Forces alien to our way of life continue to assail the freedom and liberty we enjoy in this nation. That is enough to make us a target, especially from those who don’t believe in God and those who serve strange gods. Bibles in schools, prayer in public, monuments, and other expressions of belief are being challenged and declared unconstitutional because they are offensive to those who don’t believe or who hold other beliefs in some deity. The truth is that the God of Creation, the God of the founders and in whom Christians of all ages through years pay reverence is the only deity that gives mankind freedom from sin, and the liberty to live according to his teachings, unhampered by unrealistic self serving rules benefiting no one except those wielding the whip, so to speak, to keep believers in line.   

Attack from the outside is but one of the ways that the nation is under assault. The other is from within and it is real. A Muslim in Minnesota has been elected to Congress. A supporter says, "The Muslim community needs this hope, that there is a place for us in this country.” From another, "We're excited," he says. "It's only one of 435 [House seats], but it would be a start. You have to start somewhere."  Many will ask what is wrong with him being in Congress. How can he swear allegiance to the United States Constitution and its guarantee of freedom and liberty when his religion denies those precepts in other places? As for a place in this country, how does this nation not give them a place? There is nothing in the Constitution that prevents anyone from having a place in this nation unless they don’t want it or are against it due to another belief.

The statement of a supporter who said, “You have to start somewhere." is most chilling when the tenets of Islam are held up to the light of truth. How can the congressman swear allegiance to this nation and to his religion at the same time when they are at opposite ends of the belief pole? What will his vote be if there was a vote to go to war against an Islamic believing nation? How will he vote on legislation that would include attacks on those of his belief?  And will those in Congress vote for his legislation for fear of being called intolerant even when such legislation would be disastrous to our freedom and liberty? The Apostle Paul spoke years ago about the dangers the church faced as recorded by Luke as follows [Acts 20:29] For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock. [Acts 20:30] Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them. The same words can be applied to the founders and the nation they left us. People with perverse ideas are speaking in ungodly ways and changing the national face of godliness to one of the ugly countenance of Satan. Now a man, whose fellow believers are making every effort to destroy us, has been elected to Congress of the very nation that his religious brothers vow to annihilate. This is tantamount to dressing a fox up as a rooster and putting him in charge of the chicken house.

Say what you will and call me a scaremonger if you wish; the reality of the internal danger from him, his followers, and the liberals now in Congress is real and makes our destruction one step closer. When we ignore the Constitution and the reasons for it, and allow those to be elected who don’t share our beliefs, we are headed for severe problems. History is replete with nations that no longer exist because people of other ideologies took control. The people of this nation must realize that there are some who don’t need to be elected to any office higher than a dog catcher. In Sorting It Out, it is imperative that the words of his follower(s), “You have to start somewhere.” remain in our minds. They mean it and without firing a shot it will happen if we aren’t vigilant.
