Freedom isn't Free

 
"Without a humble imitation of the characteristics of the Divine Author of our blessed religion, we can never hope to be a happy nation." George Washington

As I sat in church this week, they were doing a patriotic theme with music and quotes from our founding fathers,tears came to my eyes when I thought about this great country that was established on Christian values and the faith and belief in God. This great country that has been ruined by a self serving congress and a corrupt system. I think about how those founding fathers had so much faith that this country would prosper as long as we kept our faith in God.

"The Bible is the rock on which this Republic rests." Andrew Jackson

“It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that this great Nation was founded not by religionists, but by Christians; not on religious, but on the Gospel of Jesus Christ."
 Patrick Henry

“The highest glory of the American Revolution was this: it connected in one indissoluble bond the principles of civil government with the principles of Christianity.” John Quincy Adams

The leaders of today want to take God from everything that we hold dear. even this year our president cancelled the national day of prayer, yes church and state should e separate but we cannot govern ourselves without the morals and laws handed down to us by our heavenly Father.

"The Congress of the United States recommends and approves the Holy Bible for use in all schools.”  The US Congress 1782

"God who gave us life gave us liberty. And can the liberties of a nation be thought secure if we have removed their only firm basis: a conviction in the minds of men that these liberties are the gift of God? That they are not to be violated but with His wrath? Indeed, I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just; that His justice cannot sleep forever." - Thomas Jefferson

We need to stress to our Representatives and congressmen that we want our country back and we want it back on track, and remind them of our founding fathers beliefs, and that we need to get back to those beliefs set by our Heavenly Father
