​It’s the National Motto for the United States of America. It’s printed on our currency. It’s displayed on government buildings, in courtrooms, on police cars and more. There’s a reason for that in case you are “historically challenged”. Our Founding Fathers based the founding documents & laws on Judeo-Christian values, including the Ten Commandments. Shocking, I know! To turn on the news today you’d never know it. There are actual people among us that think it is acceptable for men to use women’s bathrooms, the LGBT crowd has become successful at “normalizing” their lifestyle in society, doctors that took the Hippocratic Oath will perform late term abortions, it’s “racist” for a citizen to want a secure border, and plenty of other examples of “stupid on parade”.
So how has this happened? Pretty easily actually, and brings to mind an excellent quote:  “All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.”–Edmund Burke.  “Doing nothing” is exactly what the Progressive agenda counts on now that they have made the average citizen afraid to speak their minds for fear of offending someone.  It’s so easy to be in a situation with work, family or friends and simply say nothing when you hear an absolute untruth or blatant pushing of an immoral agenda.  What are we afraid of?  Is it perhaps the fear of people’s judgement?  Is it the fear of offending someone? If the answer is yes, then when did we lose the fear of God’s judgement?
Imagine how God must look at our nation. People that profess to be Christians and trust in Him, but will not defend his Word.  We’ve allowed our fear of people’s judgement to overrule our fear of God’s judgement.  Who care’s if someone thinks you’re too outspoken or opinionated or old fashioned? Do you think God considers remaining silent to be the same thing as denying Him? One could make the argument that it is.
If we proclaim as a nation that In God We Trust, then why would we allow such ungodly behaviors to become the new norm? Do we trust that He loves us, but don’t trust that his commandments are right?  As Christians and Americans it is expected of us to be bold and defend what we know is right.  So why should 96.2% submit to the overbearing immoral will of 3.8% ? (most recent statistics show only 3.8% of Americans identify as LGBT) Yet we have started down the path of insanity that says we are “oppressive” or “bigots” for not wanting males to use a female restroom or if we believe that marriage should be between 1 man and 1 woman.  Why should 99% submit to the will of 1%? (most recent statistics show only 1% of Americans identify as Muslim) Currently, The Citadel is being asked to accommodate a Muslim cadet wanting to wear the hijab, while our prison system has to accommodate the Muslim diet.  We have the head of the US Dept. of Justice, Loretta Lynch, declaring that the DOJ will “take action against anti-Muslim rhetoric”.  So at what point do We The People tell Washington DC that WE will take action againt their anti-American and unconstitutional actions? Why have we sat back and turned over all our power and decision making to the Supreme Court?  We must Trust In God and speak up knowing that He is in control and has given us the ability to be bold in our stand for what is right and wrong.


Examine your conversations and postings on social media. Do you censor yourself for fear of offending someone? When you agree with a bold post on a controversial topic, are you afraid to “like” or “share” it for fear of being judged by friends? If you answered yes, then you have chosen a side. You have chosen the side of PC. You have chosen to be silent. You have chosen to submit.  What if Jesus had been silent when he encountered the corrupt money-changers in the temple?
So the next time you’re in a situation where you should be speaking up for God or your God given rights, ask yourself if you actually trust in God and proceed accordingly. If we as Christians don’t trust in God, how can we expect others to do it?
Psalms 54:4 “In God I will praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do unto me.”
