On April 1st, 1956, three skyscrapers in New York City lit up with a glowing cross to celebrate Good Friday. This action was symbolic of the state of America back then, a symbol of national adherence to Judeo-Christian principles and a firm belief in GOD and divine morality.
Nowadays, this would be called a violation of the separation of church and state, as well as a breach of the First Amendment's provisions on religion. Anyone who has a basic understanding of the Constitution and the original intent of the Founding Fathers knows both of these are falsities, (separation of church and state isn't even in the Constitution), but with America's culture and government activity attacking religious values nowadays, this shouldn't come as a surprise.
Nevertheless, this striking image serves as a reminder of what America once was, and a template of what it can be again. Americans in the modern age who do not support the radical cultural marxism that has seeped into our nation do not need to concoct an entirely new strategy or ideology to defeat it.
Those that march with violence and destruction across the face of America - the corrupt governments spending and regulating us into oblivion, the businesses who cave to the woke mob, the fearful churches that remain silent in the face of evil - think only of the present, selfishly focusing only of the Here and Now, disregarding the past as archaic and primitive, and ignoring the consequences of their actions for themselves and future generations.
But we must look to the ancient paths; to the time when our governments upheld moral law, our churches were bastions of influence and leadership in the culture, and businesses like those in New York City boldly proclaimed their allegiance to Almighty GOD. This is the way it should be, this is the structure to restore America. Are we not commanded to disciple all nations? Does this not include our own?
Many Americans have become so focused on helping the rest of the world, usually with financial or military aid, that we have forgotten our first duties: to GOD and country. We have become so focused on helping other countries that we have neglected - and even at the expense of - our own. A man must ensure his own house and family are secure before looking to others.
So look to the ancient paths, America! Look to the time when the Church led with the truth of the Scriptures. Look to the original intent of the Constitution to restore biblical governance, and limit the size, scope, and power of the federal government. And especially, look all the way back to the small, Roman province of Judea, where, on a hill called Calvary, GOD bore the sins of the world.
Happy Good Friday, Convention of States!
