When our Cause, It is Just

There's only one interpretation, one truth (God's Word). When we deviate from Truth and not stand firm on it, we are tossed around by every wind of doctrine.

Thomas Jefferson 3rd U.S. President, Drafter and Signer of the Declaration of Independence

"God who gave us life gave us liberty. And can the liberties of a nation be thought secure when we have removed their only firm basis, a conviction in the minds of the people that these liberties are of the Gift of God? That they are not to be violated but with His wrath? Indeed, I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just; that His justice cannot sleep forever; That a revolution of the wheel of fortune, a change of situation, is among possible events; that it may become probable by Supernatural influence! The Almighty has no attribute which can take side with us in that event."

How can a nation stand free when it has rejected the God

that makes men free?

Free men must always rise to tear down the walls of tyranny

or become slaves to it.

When good men do nothing,

evil will triumph!

When we say "The Pledge of Allegiance"

to the United States of America,

we are not denying the Lord Jesus Christ,

but recognizing that He has given us this great land

to proclaim Truth and protect

as long as He's given us breath.

The Star-Spangled Banner

Oh, thus be it ever when free men shall stand,

between their loved homes and the war's desolation;

Blest with victory and peace,

may the heaven rescued land

Praise Power that hath made

and preserved us a nation!

Then conquer we must,

when our cause it is just;

And this be our motto:

"In God is our trust!"

And the Star Spangled Banner in truimph shall wave

O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

In this verse of the "Star-Spangled Banner",

Sir Frances Scott Key reminds us of the price that was paid

from the patriots before us.

"The general principles on which the fathers achieved independence were the general principles of Christianity. 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."

--Adams wrote this on June 28, 1813, in a letter to Thomas Jefferson.
