Rise Up!

The decline of the United States of America has been compared to many past nations that were once birthed in greatness such as Ancient Rome, the Babylonians, the Persians, and the Greeks. However, the great shame of America's decline has been its leaders who have turned their backs on the God of our founding fathers who came here to seek religious freedom from tyranny and persecution. Since the Plymouth Pact of 1621 to the Declaration of Independence in 1776, America had been on a path of a righteous constitution among its citizens in the 13 colonies. The idea of liberty and freedom rang throughout the world and was formulated in the Plymouth Pact and the various writings of our founding fathers who later would pen the US Constitution and a Bill of Rights. From early on in America's history the Christian church has had a huge role in shaping the character of the nation. Even though we have not been without our religious leaders calling for revival in order to place the gospel message of redemption and regeneration to the nation throughout our history, America has always set its heart on the Judeo-Christian values and a heart to obey God. So where did we go wrong? Where did the decline begin and grow into a national obsession to rid us of our Christian heritage?

America has always been a Protestant campaign seeking Liberty and freedom with its tenets of faith sitting in the precepts of Christ alone, Faith alone, Grace alone, and the Word alone movements. All throughout the 17th and 18th centuries the Protestant churches of America have governed the land and set the precepts of God's Word at the forefront of their governance. American history began to change in the 19th and 20th centuries with the influx of Roman Christian culture and religious practices. At this point in time, the papacy began to exercise its influence on the lives of everyday American immigrants from Europe. Many Roman Catholics do not believe the Word of God to be an infallible and inerrant document. Instead, they will follow the writings of the papal diocese in Rome:

"In many respects, democratic socialism was and is close to Catholic social doctrine and has, in any case, made a remarkable contribution to the formation of a social consciousness." [Pope Benedict XVI, "Can a Catholic be a Democratic Socialist?" Trent Horn, Catherine R. Pakaluk, 3.2.20].

Evangelical Protestant apologists have to contend with Rome's teaching that their followers can oppose true democratic beliefs of freedom and liberty under God for its citizens by following a path of socialism that the Roman church believes to be Christian in its practice. Therefore, in order to give those who do not walk in Christian beliefs an opportunity to be heard a complete secular nation must be formed. In bringing this about the liberal movement has been championing a secular foundation of government and social values. This includes challenging and interpreting the US Constitution and our Judicial system from a secular humanist view. With Rome telling us God is in favor of a democratic socialist belief and the liberation theology Protestants secularizing America's true founding beliefs, the last 100 years of American history has been a reset of Christian values. The liberation movement has indoctrinated our educational system and our judicial system in order to promote their secular humanist beliefs. In doing so, they have changed the last three generations of society to whitewash Christian values leaving just enough to deceive the church and in the place of God they have created a secular humanist society that has permeated the American psyche. At the heart of secular humanism is the denial of God as the Creator of all things. Man is the center of his world and this belief reeks of Lucifer's confession in Isaiah 14:14.

Can America be restored? Can our exile be removed?
