After the close of the American Revolution a woman standing outside Independence Hall asked whether we now had a republic or a monarchy? Thus was the response of Benjamin Franklin upon his departure from the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia. -- "A republic ma'am, if you can keep it."
Despite vicious and relentless insistence to the contrary, the soldiers of the American Revolution turned founders, were deeply religious men. I believe a strongly held faith would have been the absolute requisite for generating the level of courage necessary to withstand such tremendous odds. After all, England was at the time the world's premiere super power.
I believe since it's inception, America has always been the most grievous source of aggravation for the forces of evil. As is clearly referenced in our founding documents, we have stood for honorable dealings with all men owing to an overarching reverence for the Creator. And this situation has been a two edged sword for our people and our land from the day Franklin emerged to make the famous response referenced above.
The short of it is as follows. While liberals dream of a world wide utopia of their own hand, the age old forces which have always prevented the nations from peaceful coexistence are not only still active, they are in this day even more so. But in defining the two edged sword as mentioned above; our country has known great blessing, but we have also known great threat. And there is a very good reason for that. This life is not merely spent, nor is it measured meaningfully, merely in how well we ply our trade or how well we make and manage our financial state of affairs and raise our families. We are here not by chance, we are here because the Lord of Creation put us here.
Without belaboring the point, we Americans will persevere as a nation as long as we continue with honor God in our dealings with ourselves and the other nations of the world. Across the entirely of the American existence, she has come under nearly continuous threat from without. Not only by other world powers, but "we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. -- Eph 6:12
To say nothing of the threat from within.
There has always been a two pronged attack on our existence here, spiritual and secular. And I believe that that two pronged attack was very well understood by our founders. As I said, many of whom being men of great faith. Just as I believe that the great sacrifice of those men, even though they prevailed, brought about a heaviness of heart. How many, or for how long would the men who would benefit from and follow in their footsteps, be willing to similarly sacrifice? If you can keep it. Profound.
If... Donald J Trump is to remain President of this land, no power on earth could ever overturn that. And that includes Dominion Voting equipment and SmartMatic software. Either way regardless, the Lord is still every bit as sovereign. And prophecy though completely accurate, is really nothing more than His having recorded history before it even happens. Globalism is coming, so is antichrist, and so is the one world government. Because living outside of time, God has seen the entirety of man's existence unfold. And that of it which we could tolerate, He has shared with us. It is enough however, to know that His grip on creation will not and cannot slip in the slightest scintilla. That means as He has forewarned, the world order must change.
