"The belief in a God All Powerful wise and good, is so essential to the moral order of the world and to the happiness of man, that arguments which enforce it cannot be drawn from too many sources nor adapted with too much solicitude to the different characters and capacities impressed with it." —James Madison
 
The 17-point drop in the percentage of U.S. adults who say religion is an important part of their daily life — from 66% in 2015 to 49% today — ranks among the largest Gallup has recorded in any country over any 10-year period since 2007. 49% of Americans now say religion is not an important part of their daily life. They remain as divided on the question today as they were last year. Such large declines in religiosity are rare.
 
Since 2007, only 14 out of more than 160 countries in the World Poll have experienced drops of over 15 percentage points in religious importance over any 10-year period.
“To be clear, Christians who exercise their First Amendment rights to shape culture and politics are being labeled Christian Nationalists"—Mark Alexander
 
During the democratic Party convention for BObama’s  2nd term, the democratic Party convention actually voted to remove God from their platform. They initially voted to say, “We don’t want anything to do with God anymore as a Democratic Party.” Then, some wise men said, “No, no, no! We cannot do that. We will lose all the Christians.” So they held another vote. In the 2nd vote, the convention again removed God, but then they lied and said God was back, simply to appease Christians who were gullible enough to believe it. Why? Because many were not strong Christians. They were still hanging on to a party that had long ago abandoned biblical principles. The change in the democratic Party did not happen overnight. It was gradual, like boiling a frog. You put the frog in normal water and slowly raise the heat. The frog relaxes, falls asleep, and eventually dies. This is what has happened to America politically. democrats are now in the space of boiling, while Republicans are waking up, That is why MAGA exists.
 
The Bible is clear, “A man shall leave his father and mother and unite with his wife, and they shall become one flesh.” One man, one woman, for life. But over the last 40-50 years, the democratic Party has redefined marriage. Gays, lesbians, LGBTQ+, all these groups now challenge the biblical definition. Marriage is no longer simply between 1 man and 1 woman. 2 men, 2 women, soon 3 men with 2 woman, or like in islam 4 women with 1 man, will all claim the right to marry.
 
The democratic Party even challenges the concepts of man and woman. But men and women never change, physically, mentally, spiritually, or psychologically. Yet the party demands that society accept this new ideology. This creates a clear conflict between Christianity and democrat’s neo-liberal ideology. Even children are affected. Johnny might not feel like a boy, or Susan might not feel like a girl. Through education and media, democrats are reshaping  children’s genders, even surgically, sometimes even secretly against parents’ wishes.
 
Christianity teaches that God commanded Adam and Eve to “fill the earth”. But the democratic Party promotes abortion, sometimes even at full term, contradicting God’s command. Medicine allows a woman to take a pill that can abort a baby at home even, even remove a baby in the 9th month.
This is what the democratic Party stands for. Christians are forced to choose: follow the Bible and refill the earth, or follow the democratic Party and participate in mass abortion.
America was built on legal immigration. But the democratic Party promotes illegal immigration. People enter without paperwork, sometimes criminals or jihadis seeking to harm Americans. Yet democrats present them as people seeking freedom and a better life.
 
Meanwhile, legal immigrants wait for years to enter America, while illegal immigrants are welcomed immediately with housing, food, medical care, and even free education. During BObama’s presidency, and continuing today, democrats prioritize illegal immigrants for political power.|
When my American-born wife was sick, she could not access programs that illegal immigrants received immediately, not relying on their own efforts work nor voluntary charity instead. Republicans, by contrast, want immigrants to come through proper channels, vetted and integrated, so they contribute to the country rather than take from it.
 
So, what's next? The left-wing/democrat Party's cadre of marxists hiding behind the socialist façade, are going to pivot back to the hate and division rhetorical model perfected by the biden/harris regime. Just in time for our upcoming faithful observances of Thanksgiving and Christmas, you can expect some lib/dem hate rhetoric about "Christian Nationalists" to resurface.
Many people ask, “How do I know if my church is conservative or liberal?” It’s simple. Speak at your church about Islam butchering Christians in Africa and across the Levant, not their antisemitism in Europe & America; or ask your leaders to read this article from the pulpit. If they refuse, your church is not conservative. It is a neo-liberal church.
 
Thomas Jefferson, the principal author of our Declaration of Independence, asked: "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 the gift of God?" Alexander Hamilton's answer was that: "The sacred rights of mankind are not to be rummaged for among old parchments or musty records. They are written, as with a sunbeam, in the whole volume of human nature, by the hand of the Divinity itself, and can never be erased or obscured by mortal power."  That is completely antithetical to statism embraced by the current generation of socialist/communist neophytes.
 
Some preachers say, “We don’t mix politics in church.” But many biblical prophets and Christian leaders were political. They spoke against kings living in sin. That is the role of the Church. If your preacher is afraid or refuses to teach truth, is he really Christian. Is he who you want to lead the flock? The Church is the body of believers, not a building. Do not support fallen Churches, but stay and work to reform them.
In the coming elections, you cannot say: “I vote for the individual, not the party.” Democrats stick together. pelosi passed laws with not 1 democrat opposing. There are no DINO democrats, but there are plenty of RINO Republicans.
 
Do not vote for democrats. They have left biblical principles long ago. There is no such thing as a good Christian democrat. Voting for them helps fulfill a non-Christian, non-biblical agenda. Only vote for true Christians who uphold timeless Christian values.
“We gave you a rule when we were with you: do not let anyone have any food if he refuses to do any work. Now we hear that there are some of you who are living in idleness, doing no work themselves but interfering with everyone else’s. In the Lord Jesus Christ, we order and call on people of this kind to go on quietly working and earning the food that they eat.”--2 Thessalonians 3:7‐12
“Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!”—Isaiah 5:20
“Silence in the face of evil is itself evil: God will not hold us guiltless. Not to speak is to speak. Not to act is to act.” ― Dietrich Bonhoeffer
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I challenge everyone to reflect on whatever traditional Religious teaching you were raised with, and remember who was thanked by the Pilgrims on the first Thanksgiving in 1621.
Then, remember it's God who gave us our freedoms, the government was supposed to protect those freedoms, not pretend they were the ones who gave them to us.
 
This Thanksgiving, remember to thank the Creator, and also remember it's the essence and intent of the Ten Commandments that all our laws should be based on.
Individually I would recommend turning back to God and keeping his Commandments as our traditional moral principles.
