Are the United States and British Commonwealth of nations really TARGETS of destruction? If they are, WHY and BY WHOM? Let’s investigate to determine if this is a “spiritual” battle to the death between the forces of good and evil.
During the reign of Henry VII of Britain, Polydore Vergil and later Cardinal Pole [1555 A.D.] [both rigid Roman Catholics] told the British Parliament in an address by Pole to Philip and Mary that “Britain was the first of ALL countries to receive the Christian faith.” “The glory of Britain,” remarked Genebrard [an early British historian], “consists not only in this, that she was the first country which, in a NATIONAL CAPACITY, publicly professed herself Christian, but that she made this confession when the Roman empire itself was pagan and a cruel persecutor of Christianity.” (Andrew Gray, D.D., The Origin and Early History of Christianity in Britain, [London: Skeffington & Son, Piccadilly, W. - New York: James Pott & Co., 4th Avenue and 22nd Street, 1897], p. 5.
This earliest Christian nation status was only challenged once - on political grounds. The Ambassadors of France and Spain, at the Council of Pisa in 1417 A.D., questioned the British claim of being the first Christian nation. The Council affirmed the British claim. The ambassadors appealed to the Council of Constance in 1419. This Council affirmed the same as that of Pisa. The decision was based upon the principle that the Church of Britain was founded by Joseph of Arimathea “immediately after the passion [crucifixion] of Christ.”(“Statim post passionem Christ,” Robert Parsons, the Jesuit, in his Three Conversions of England, admits, in common with the great majority of accurate writers that Christianity came to Britain directly from Jerusalem).
No wonder England [descended from Ephraim of Joseph’s two sons] is known as the Motherland to the world. Hers is the womb of Christianity, out of which has sprung the world’s most humane governments with freedom for all. Britain and America in the past proudly proclaimed the source of our greatness - Jesus Christ. America [descended from Joseph’s son Manasseh] and Britain are the only two nations in the world that permits another flag to fly above their own national standard. Britain created that flag as the Flag of Christ - more commonly called the Flag of St. George. The U.S. seldom uses it, but it is legal to do so. By this act, they proclaim to the rest of the world that they acknowledge Christ and the Law of God.
In addition to Britain declaring itself a Christian nation in 156-157 A.D., the United States did the same by the Supreme Court declaration of February 29, 1892 in a case involving a church and taxes - Holy Trinity Church vs. United States, 143 U.S. 471. Arabic nations can be called “Islamic” in religion. Why can’t America be called Christian?

The United States Is a Christian Nation
BY: Paul A. Schaefer

******1st PROOF of this fact that the United States is a Christian nation is from the United States’ very beginning - at our birth in 1620 when the pilgrims, a Christian people, first came to the New World bringing their Christianity with them, settling in Jamestown, Virginia, with the PURPOSE of spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ, to spread Christianity.
Before disembarking from their ship, the Mayflower, they created a “Document of Government” called the Mayflower Compact. [It was] A beautiful document addressing God, outlining their purpose, and soliciting Almighty God’s protection and wisdom.
Landing in December, the Pilgrims suffered unbelievable hardships with 50% of their people dying that first winter. But with the coming of spring and the kindness of the American Indians showing the Pilgrims how to plant corn and other crops and to hunt and fish, the Pilgrims survived and prospered and celebrated with the American Indians our first Thanksgiving Day, thanking Almighty God. “That’s a Christian beginning.”

******2nd PROOF of this fact that the United States is a Christian nation is 150 years later in 1776 the signing of our Declaration of Independence, declaring a “New Nation Under God,” the Christian God. As our country prospered and multiplied abundantly, serving Almighty God and promoting Christianity, as is evidenced in thousands of books and writings, as shown on the next page:. *99.8%, in 1776, of the total United States population claimed to be Christian. “That’s a Christian nation.”
*The first Christian Bible published in the United States in 1782 was published and paid for by the United States federal government.
*John Adams and George Washington said, “It would be impossible to govern without God and the Holy Bible.”
*Thomas Jefferson saw to the people’s wishes that the Holy Bible be taught in all public schools as was the Watts Hymnal used. “That’s a Christian nation.”

******3rd PROOF of this fact that the United States is a Christian nation was the United States Supreme Court’s ruling in 1892 declaring by a vote of 9 to 0 in the court case of the U.S. versus the Holy Trinity Church that the United States was a Christian nation and people, giving testimonial PROOF of the U.S. people’s faith and belief in Almighty God and their churches.
The United States Supreme Court in 1892 stated and ruled, “Our laws and our institutions must necessarily be based upon the teaching of the Redeemer of Mankind. It is impossible that it should be otherwise, and in this sense and to the extent our civilization and our institutions are emphatically Christian.”
*4th PROOF of this fact that the United States is a Christian nation is during 2001 the American Bible Society Record wrote that the Gallup Poll, which has been synonymous with survey research in America, and the most trusted and reliable of all research companies, found:
*84% of all U.S. people believe in Jesus Christ, which makes them professing Christians, and the United States is still a strong Christian nation.
*79% believe in miracles.
*95% say they pray.
*93% own a Bible.
*40% read the Bible at least once a week.
*1,000,000, nearly, are members of an outside Bible study group.
“That’s a professing Christian nation and the reason for the greatness of our country. Almighty God has blessed our country abundantly.”
Today, the United States is 5% of the world’s population, and its people have over 50% of the world’s wealth. (credit: NCR)
As one deducts from the Gallup Poll, only 4% of the U.S. people do not believe in any God and are called Atheists. 12% believe in some god other than the true God, Jesus Christ the Christian Living God, as stated by the U.S. Supreme Court. Many of these believe their gods are Trees, Cows, and Statues - or “they may have a zeal for God but not according to knowledge.” (Romans 10:1-4). These groups are Hindus, Muslims, Jewish, Masons, and so forth. Some are peaceful, but others “[Ishmael and his seed] will be wild men. His hand will be against every man and every man’s hand will be against him” (Genesis 16:11 & 12).
George Washington, the Father of our country and our first President, in his personal field handbook - prayer book, which consisted of 24 pages in his own handwriting - reveals the depth of his character and his love for Jesus Christ and Christianity. Patrick Henry boldly declared, “It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that this great nation was founded not by religionists but by Christians, not on religions but on the Gospel of Jesus Christ. For this very reason, people of other faiths have been offered asylum, prosperity, and freedom to worship here.” (God & Country Encyclopedia of Quotations).
This furnished PROOF that the United States is a Christian Nation and always has been since our foundation in 1620.
This writer’s views:
*People of strange gods, atheists, and so forth: We afford you asylum in the United States, to live, prosper, and worship as you will, but we will not accept murder, sabotage, espionage, and treacherous acts, or your support of treacherous acts with your money and ties to your brothers and sisters or your homeland groups to destroy our nation. That’s treason and murder.
*Being a Christian nation and people, we have a 100% right to be governed by Christians with Christian principles. All office holders, local, city, state, and federal, primarily all Supreme Court Judges must govern with Christian principles and Bible law or step down. A number of U.S. Supreme Court laws must be reversed. Two Supreme Court laws that must be reversed are:
1. Taking prayer out of our public schools. SIX OF THE NINE SUPREME COURT JUDGES that took prayer out of our public schools were Masons - NOT Christians. [These are] Supreme Court Judges that falsely claimed a god or a false god for their own purposes, but not according to knowledge. (Romans 10:1-4)
2. Abortion - Roe vs. Wade, where 70 million babies have been killed/murdered in the United States since 1973. 70 million babies killed by abortion, that’s 2 times the total population of the entire country of Canada.
These are two of the Supreme Court Laws that must be immediately reversed IF we wish the continued blessings of Joy, Health, Prosperity on ourselves, our families, and our nation from Almighty God. The United States is a Christian Nation, and we have the privilege and duty to keep it a Christian Nation. [End article]

Could there be those among us who do not want us to remain a Christian Nation?
We will see WHO they are!

Attorney Herbert Titus Explains ACLU’s Plan

Herbert Titus, one of three attorneys defending Chief Justice Roy Moore of the Alabama Supreme Court, knows firsthand about the ACLU [American Civil Liberties Union] and its aims. A Harvard Law School graduate who served in the Justice Department under Robert Kennedy, Titus taught law at the University of Oregon Law School.
He pursued legal activism, signing on to serve as an ACLU attorney. He knows better than most what the ACLU’s true objectives are and what is at stake in the lawsuit filed against Chief Justice Moore. Titus, who professed Christ in 1975, later taught law at the Oral Roberts University School of Law and served as the founding Dean of the College of Law and Government at Regent University.

Promote, Not Establish -
A highly regarded constitutional scholar, Titus said Moore’s Ten Commandments display does not violate the First Amendment’s ban on the ESTABLISHMENT of religion. To establish religion, he said, is to use “coercive power of the state to enforce duties that God Himself has reserved to Himself.” When Moore installed the Ten Commandments, he “did not in anyway coerce anybody to do anything.”
But doesn’t the monument promote a particular point of view? Yes, said Titus. It promotes the same point of view espoused in the Declaration of Independence, namely that law comes from God. If Moore’s enemies are right to claim that he, as a public official, cannot have that view, then, said Titus, “we better tear up the Declaration of Independence, because that’s the view of the Declaration of Independence.”
Moore’s opponents won’t go that far because they know it’s not politically popular to do that - not yet,” said Titus. “BUT, THAT’S WHERE THEY WILL GO IF THEY’RE ALLOWED TO GET AWAY WITH THIS.”
The ACLU, says Titus, wants nothing less than to scrub the American landscape clean of all “vestiges of the religious foundation of law and liberty in America.” And it seeks vulnerable targets in its campaign to purge religion from public life. “Chief Justice Moore,”

he said, “is a vulnerable target, just as cities and towns and states across the country have been vulnerable targets to this assault on America’s Christian tradition.”
Small victories, he said, build precedents for larger cases. Given enough courtroom conquests, the ACLU will go on to challenge “ANY reference to God in any public place, in any public ceremony of any kind.” That includes, he said, “In God We Trust” on our money, and “Under God” in the Pledge of Allegiance.

The Plan
“I know,” he said. “I used to be an ACLU cooperating attorney. In the 1960s there was a DEFINITE PLAN to rid this nation of all public displays of any religious symbol of this nation’s founding.” The case against Moore, he said, is “just part of that plan,” and the reason why the outcome is so critical.
“What’s at stake in the case involving Chief Justice Moore and the monument that contains the Ten Commandments is the the very future of the nation,” said Titus.
“Are we going to be a nation under God with liberty and justice for all? Are we going to be a nation that REJECTS God and says that God belongs only behind the four walls of the church or the four walls of our home? That’s the issue in this case.”

School District of Abington Township, Pennsylvania (prior to 1963), endorsed public school policy by stating:
“Each school... shall be opened by the reading, without comment, of a chapter in the Holy Bible... Participation in the opening exercises... is voluntary. The student reading the verses from the Bible may select the passages and read from any version he chooses... There are no prefatory statements, no questions asked nor solicited, no comments or explanations made and no interpretations given at or during the exercises. The students and parents are advised that the student may absent himself from the classroom or, should he elect to remain, not participate in the exercises” (Abington v. Schempp, 374 U.S. 211 [1963]. David Bartin, The Myth of Separation [Aledo, TX: WallBuilder Press, 1991], p. 149).

Abigail Adams, wife of John Adams (1744-1818). On June 18, 1775, in the midst of the conflict with Britain, Abigail Adams wrote to her husband, John:
“The race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong; but the God of Israel is He that giveth strength and power unto His people. Trust in Him at all times, ye people, pour out your hearts before Him; God is a refuge for us.
